| Abstract |
Postanesthesia care is a costly component of overall surgical care. In the ambulatory setting, regional anesthesia has been shown for multiple surgical procedures to either decrease postanesthesia care unit (PACU) length of stay (LOS) or completely bypass it altogether. This has not been demonstrated in a large hospital setting with a complex surgical case mix. |
