    AbstractThe aim of the present article is to describe the field of activity and prevailing conditions for office-based anesthetists in Germany. From the introduction of outpatient operations on the basis of actual numbers, data and facts, we present the project profile and the structures of the different fields of activity and practice constellations for office-based anesthesiology. Particular emphasis is placed on the requirements for room space and technical facilities, the criteria for patient selection, and the structural and procedural quality as well as quality management of outpatient anesthesia. With the aid of current numerical data the anesthetic procedures performed in the outpatient field through to the possibilities for development of continuous regional anesthetic procedures in catheter technique are illustrated. In conclusion, we discuss the economic conditions and the health-care economic significance together with a description of the current health-care quality of ambulant anesthesiology and the possibilities for participation in an error-reporting system.© Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart · New York.
