Fractional spinal anaesthesia in high-risk elderly patients for orthopaedic surgery – Case series

Elderly patients coming for orthopaedic surgeries usually have many comorbidities. This makes them potentially vulnerable to haemodynamic instability with a conventional bolus dose of spinal anaesthetic. Fractionating the spinal dose was reported to have haemodynamic stability with a longer duration...

description Elderly patients coming for orthopaedic surgeries usually have many comorbidities. This makes them potentially vulnerable to haemodynamic instability with a conventional bolus dose of spinal anaesthetic. Fractionating the spinal dose was reported to have haemodynamic stability with a longer duration. Here, we present five cases of high-risk elderly patients with multiple comorbidities who presented for orthopaedic surgeries and were successfully managed with fractional spinal anaesthesia.
