title: [Retrospective study on six years of anaesthesia for reduction of shoulder dislocation in emergency].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  The aim of this study was to assess the anaesthetic technique used for emergency shoulder luxation management in a university hospital.
  
  
  METHODS
  Retrospective observational study.
  
  
  METHODS
  During a six-year period, all patients who were anaesthetized for shoulder luxation were included. Data were collected from administrative database and patient's files.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Two hundred and twenty-four patients were included. Ninety-seven regional anaesthesias were performed (17 failures) and so, 144 general anaesthesias were performed. Among general anaesthesia, 89 patients were not fasten, only four rapid sequence inductions were performed. Sixteen (8%) complications occurred, all during general anaesthesia, among them one inhalation. In not fasten patients, anaesthesia was performed not in accordance with guidelines in 56% of cases of all anaesthetic technique and 96% for patient who had general anaesthesia. Accordance with guidelines was independent from the anaesthesiologist experience or the time of the anaesthesia (night/day).
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  We must spread guidelines information to physicians because of the morbidity.
