Opioid Free Anesthesia in Maxillofacial Surgery

Efficiency of Opioid-free Anesthesia (OFA) in Maxillofacial Surgery

Opioid free anesthesia is a promising practice in anesthesia. Studies already carried out have compared OFA to an opioid or "opioid anesthesia" (OA) protocol without the use of antihyperalgesic in the OA protocol. Most of the studies currently available have been carried out in Europe, America and a few in Asia under conditions other than those available in precarious situations.That's why we decide to conduct a study to evaluate the effectiveness of an OFA protocol in maxillofacial surgery in Burkina Faso.

The patients were recruited at the University Hospital of Souro Sanou in Bobo Dioulasso

Inclusion Criteria:

• All patients aged between 15 and 65 years, admitted to the central operating room of the hospital for maxillofacial surgery.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Known or suspected coronary artery disease on preoperative consultation;
• Unstable arterial hypertension
• Insulin-dependent diabetes
• Second degree atrioventricular block
• Neuro-vegetative dysautonomia;
• known allergy or intolerance to a drug of the protocols
