Brief summary

The influence of anesthesia on the course of multiple sclerosis is poorly investigated and the literature is limited. The aim of this study is to investigate multiple sclerosis relapse after different types of anesthesia.

Detailed description

The influence of anesthesia on the course of multiple sclerosis is poorly investigated and the literature is limited. A possible relapse after neuraxial anesthesia, it is believed to be associated with local anesthetic's toxicity and concentration. The aim of this study is to investigate multiple sclerosis relapse after different types of anesthesia.

Interventions

PROCEDUREGeneral anaesthesia

Intravenous or volatile general anesthesia was preformed with different type of airway management (endotracheal tube, laryngeal mask and bag mask ventilation)

PROCEDURENeuraxial anaesthesia

spinal or epidural injections of local anesthetic with or without opioid
