Objective Intraoperative hypotension during hip fracture surgery is frequent in the elderly. No
study has compared the haemodynamic effect of hypobaric unilateral spinal anaesthesia …

BACKGROUND: Hypotension during surgery is frequent in the elderly population and is
associated with acute kidney and myocardial injury, which are, themselves, associated with …

Background Spinal anesthesia (SA) is widely used for anesthetic management of patients
undergoing hip surgery, and hypotension is the most common cardiovascular side effect of …

Background Arterial hypotension is the most frequent adverse effect of subarachnoid
anaesthesia in the elderly sustaining a femoral proximal fracture. Decreasing the local …

Purpose Single shot spinal anesthesia is used worldwide for hip fracture repair surgery in
the elderly. Arterial hypotension is a frequent adverse effect. We hypothesized that lowering …

Background: Hip fracture is common in the geriatric population. Patients in this group are
often at high risk for perioperative complications from concurrent diseases. Conventional …

Aim: This study is designed to compare the clinical effects of CSEA versus spinal anesthesia
in high-risk geriatric patients undergoing surgeries around the hip joint. Materials and …

Results No significant changes in systolic, mean and diastolic pressures, or SaO2%
occurred. Median onset times of sensory and motor block were 8+/-5 and 16+/-7 minutes on …

Background The altered hemodynamics, and therefore the arterial hypotension is the most
prevalent adverse effect after subarachnoid anesthesia. The objective of the study was to …

Background Spinal anesthesia for surgical repair of hip fracture in the elderly is associated
with a high incidence of hypotension. The synergism between intrathecal opioids and local …
