No results posted yet for this study

Summary

In this prospective study, investigators plan to evaluate the outcome of general anesthesia in the context of patients with a positive cocaine urine test. Patients with a positive urine cocaine test who do not appear acutely toxic and have normal vital signs may not have an increased rate of perioperative complications during elective surgery compared to similar patients with negative urine cocaine screening tests. Patients who are chronic cocaine users may have a higher anesthetic requirement.
