ED50 and ED95 of Intrathecal Hyperbaric Bupivacaine With Fentanyl for Transurethral Prostatectomy in Elderly Patients : a Prospective Double-blinded Randomized Trial
Description:
As people age, the incidence of prostate hyperplasia increases. So patients under
Transurethral Resection of Prostate(TURP) or Holmium Laser Ennucleation of Prostate(HoLEP)
are mostly ole age people. Most old age patient has several underlying disease. So patients
can develop high mortality and morbidity. Most surgeries for Prostate Resection are taken
under Spinal anesthesia. Adequate block level for Prostate Resection is T10. But sometimes,
old age patients can develop severe hypotension and vital unstability due to unintentional
high sensory and motor blocks. These complications are due to the decreased cerebrospinal
fluid volume with increase of age. So we started this study to know the adequate drug
concentration for Spinal anesthesia taken for Prostate Resection surgery.
