Summary

The altered hemodynamics, and therefore the arterial hypotension is the most prevalent adverse effect after subarachnoid anesthesia. The objective of the study was to determine the exact role of local anesthetic selection underlying spinal anesthesia-induced hypotension in the elderly patient. We conducted a descriptive, interventional pilot study to assess the hemodynamic impact of subarachnoid anesthesia with isobaric levobupivacaine versus isobaric bupivacaine for hip fracture surgery.

Conditions

  • Hip Fractures
  • Hemodynamic Stability

Interventions

DRUG

Levobupivacaine Hydrochloride 0.5%

The solution is called L solution, which contains a combination of 0.5% isobaric levobupivacaine with fentanyl. Injectable Solution.

DRUG

Isobaric bupivacaine 0.5%

The solution is called B solution, which contains a combination of 0.5% isobaric bupivacaine with fentanyl. Injectable Solution.
