Comparison of Hyperbaric Prilocaine 2% 50 Mg and Hyperbaric Bupivacaine 0.5% 12.5 Mg Against Spinal Anesthesia Recovery Time in Cystoscopy Procedure

Comparison of Hyperbaric Prilocaine 2% 50 Mg and Hyperbaric Bupivacaine 0.5% 12.5 Mg Against Spinal Anesthesia Recovery Time in Cystoscopy Procedure

Data regarding the comparison of recovery time from spinal anesthesia between prilocaine and bupivacaine are still relatively limited. The aim of this study was to compare the speed of recovery of spinal anesthesia with hyperbaric prilocaine 2% 50 mg compared to hyperbaric bupivacaine 0.5% 12.5 mg in cystoscopy procedures. By knowing the speed of recovery time, it is hoped that the patient will recover faster, be transferred to the treatment room faster, be safer, and the length of treatment will be shorter so that the quality of service for cystoscopy procedures and patient satisfaction is getting better.

This study is a double-blind randomized clinical trial. This study compared the speed of recovery from spinal anesthesia, as many as 66 subjects were divided into two groups, namely hyperbaric prilocaine 2% 50 mg and hyperbaric bupivacaine 0.5% 12.5 mg who would undergo a cystoscopy procedure. This research was conducted in the urological surgery room of RSCM in January - October 2022, after passing the ethical review and obtaining a location permit.
