What are the things that they do
differently…
Robotic Prostatectomy
WHAT ARE THE THINGS THAT THEY
DO DIFFERENTLY…
• fentanyl and remifentanil based
opioids
• glyco-pyrrolate
• No nasogastric tube
• No PEEP
WHAT ARE THE THINGS THAT THEY
DO DIFFERENTLY…
• surgical duration is shorter
• MAC 0.9-1.2
• do not use ‘bean bag’
• All are given PCA
• ALL PATIENTS ARE EXTUBATED
Intraop Remifentanil and Rocuronium infusion
PCA fentanyl + ondansetron
Bolus with basal rate
(Accufusor)
PCA fentanyl 1000ug
+ ondansetron 16mg
in 100 ml solution
Basal infusion at 0.5
ml/h
Bolus dose of 10 ug per
demand
Lockout 15 minutes
Procedures that we plan to do in the
future….
