2.4. Data acquisition
Postoperative pain, pneumothorax, postoperative pain visual
POSTOPERATIVE ATELECTASIS, PNEUMOTHORAX, POSTOPERATIVE PNEUMOTHORAX
The data were collected and used for statistical analysis included: age, gender, total anesthesia duration, surgical time, operating theater occupancy time, difficult lung deflation incidence, postoperative atelectasis incidence, postoperative pneumothorax incidence, postoperative pain visual analog scale, and total hospital admission time. Total anesthesia duration included the sum of induction (time between the onset of anesthesia and the correctness of the intubation tube) plus wake-up times. All time variables were collected by either anesthesia or surgical duration and recorded independently.Postoperative atelectasis and pneumothorax were evaluated by the single radiologist. on anterior-posterior chest X-ray. Postoperative pain scoring was performed by surgical ward nurses using standard visual analog scale score. Hospital admission durations were obtained from patients’ electronic medical records.We evaluated surgeon satisfaction with 5-point Likert scale (Excellent-Good-Fair-Poor-Very Poor).
