The primary aim is to evaluate whether standard administration of Dexamethasone at the time
of general anesthesia induction at the time of minimally invasive sacrocolpopexy (MISC) would
result in improved quality of recovery (QoR).
of general anesthesia induction at the time of minimally invasive sacrocolpopexy (MISC) would
result in improved quality of recovery (QoR).
There has been a public outcry regarding the continuing rise of health care expenditures. In
1997, the estimated costs of surgery for pelvic organ prolapse (POP) were $ 100.1 million. It
is important to identify interventions that would improve the QoR in this patient population
and to speed-up postoperative recovery. As most of these surgeries are performed in an
outpatient manner as a 23 hour observation, improved recovery may also speed discharge and
free-up valuable hospital resources.
Patients will receive either Dexamethasone or placebo ( normal saline) at the time of
induction of general anesthesia. QoR questionnaires, Pain scale and postoperative nausea and
vomiting scale (PONV).
