Pretty brave of this anesthesiologist to fight against her hospital/surgeons. We all know ortho docs are one of the richest specialties, and I actually think this is a common practice in many major institutions.
While I do not know if complication rates actually go up, the patients should know about it, and there is limited data about long term effect of giving GA longer than neccessary
