Retrospective evaluation of anesthesia experience of patients who underwent sleeve gastrectomy

In this study, we aimed to present our anesthesia experience in patients who underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy in our hospital and review the literature. 116 patients with ASA (American Society of Anesthesiology) risk classification II-III who underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy were evaluated retrospectively. The patients were divided into groups according to gender and the anesthetic agent used, and the lengths of stay in the recovery unit, intensive care unit and hospital were compared. The age of the patients ranged from 19 to 62, and 61% of them were women. We did not find a statistically significant difference between the total length of hospitalization, intensive care unit stay and recovery time of the gender groups (p>0.05). We found a statistically significant difference in recovery times between the Thiopental and Propofol groups (p
