Riassunto
Nonostante gli interventi chirurgici abbiano i loro rischi, il paziente considera l’anestesia stessa come uno dei pericoli maggiori. L’anestesia è di per sé una scienza non scevra da rischi, e la classificazione dell’American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA) ne è la prova: nella classe I–II la probabilità di incidente grave durante anestesia è 1/200.000, includendo anche le classi III e IV tale valore è 1/184.000. Il rischio di sviluppare complicanze dipende da vari fattori quali età, sesso, abitudini di vita, condizioni di salute, comorbilità. In uno studio del 2008 [1] è stato riportato che ogni anno, a livello mondiale, circa 230 milioni di pazienti vengono sottoposti a interventi di chirurgia maggiore; di questi, 7 milioni sviluppa complicanze severe, di cui 1 milione (200.000 in Europa) si concludono con l’exitus.
