Abstract | The purpose of this study was to evaluate factors influencing the use of propofol-based total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA) since despite TIVA being a well-established technique, it is used far less frequently than volatile anaesthesia. Questions were formulated after reviewing the literature for perceived disadvantages of TIVA and meeting with a focus group consisting of both senior and junior anaesthestists from our department. Once the survey had been formulated, specialist anaesthetists from professional colleges and societies from several countries were invited to complete the survey on an electronic web-based platform to allow evaluation of the respondent's rating of the importance of a range of factors in their decision not to use TIVA for a particular case. Basic descriptive statistics were determined using SPSS statistical software, while graphical depictions of data were handled using R for statistical analysis. A total of 763 survey responses were included in the final analysis and stratified according to the frequency of TIVA use. Among the infrequent users, issues such as additional effort, institutional preference, lack of real-time monitoring of propofol concentration, risk of missing drug delivery failure and increased turnaround time were among the top reasons mentioned. Interestingly, these issues were considered far less important among the frequent users when not choosing TIVA. We concluded that frequent and infrequent users respond quite differently to similar technical TIVA-related factors. Non-technical factors may play an important role in the infrequent user's decision not to use TIVA for a particular case. |
