Summary

Correction of Post-spinal anesthesia hypotension by fluids pose the risk of volume overload or compromising cardiac conditions. Intravenous Dexamethasone in some studies is used to treat conditions manifested by decrease of peripheral vascular resistance Many advantages were investigated for the addition of dexamethasone to bupivacaine in spinal anesthesia as prolongation of anesthesia time, postoperative analgesia and prophylaxis for shivering.

In this study the investigators will investigate the ability of dexamethasone to blunt post-spinal anesthesia hypotension in elderly patients undergoing urological endoscopic surgery, and hence, if it decreases amount of fluids and dose of vasoactive drugs.
