title: [Urological surgery with analogosedation and local anesthesia. What makes sense?].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Analogosedation and local anesthesia, including regional nerve blocks are used for endoscopic diagnostic or radiological and ultrasound-guided procedures in which the patient should not move or has to be free of pain. We retrospectively analyzed patient satisfaction, complications and the risk of urological interventions with analgosedation and/or local anesthesia between 2008 and 2012.
  
  
  METHODS
  In total 21,690 urological patients underwent surgical treatment at the Department of Urology of the University Hospital of Essen between 2008 and 2012 and 3,327 of these cases were performed by urologists with the patient under analogosedation (n=1484) and local anesthesia (n=1843). In total 13 surgical and endoscopic procedures were separately analyzed and evaluated for safety and practicability.
  
  
  RESULTS
  In five cases (0.15%) the procedures with analgosedation or local anesthesia were interrupted because of agitation (n=3) and in one case the transurethal resection was stopped due to a large bladder tumor. One patient suffered anaphylactic shock after preoperative intravenous application of cefuroxim 1.5 g. After cardiopulmonary resuscitation and a short stay on the intensive care unit the patient was discharged after 2 days.Conclusions. Local anesthesia and analgosedation should be performed by urologists for minor surgery, endoscopic procedures and radiological or ultrasound-guided treatment. For safety reasons there should always be a second medical doctor present for assistance. Analgesia with deep sedation or loss of defensive reflexes should be administered by anesthesiologists.
