High Thoracic Epidural Analgesia as an Adjunct to General Anesthesia is Associated With Better Outcome in Low-to-Moderate Risk Cardiac Surgery Patients
Conclusion: This large, uniquely matched single-center cohort was generated, and, subject to the listed limitations the authors concluded that supplemental HTEA to general anesthesia had a better outcome in low-risk cardiac surgery patients, with a significantly lower 6-month mortality rate compared with the control group. However, regression analysis revealed that HTEA only had an independently positive effect on the frequency of postoperative dialysis.
