Effect of Lateral Decubitus Position After Spinal Anesthesia on Hemodynamic Stability in High-Risk Geriatric Patients

The Effects of Lateral Decubitus Positioning After Spinal Anesthesia on Hemodynamic Stability in High-Risk Geriatric Patients Undergoing Lower Extremity Orthopedic Surgery: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial

Spinal anesthesia is a common and preferred anesthetic technique for lower extremity orthopedic surgery in elderly patients. However, it can cause a significant drop in blood pressure (hypotension), especially in high-risk older patients with multiple medical conditions. This complication can lead to serious consequences such as heart attack, stroke, or death in vulnerable patients.

This study investigates whether keeping patients in a lateral (side-lying) position for 15 minutes after spinal anesthesia - instead of immediately turning them onto their back (supine position) - can reduce the risk of hypotension. When a patient lies on their side after receiving spinal anesthesia with a heavy (hyperbaric) local anesthetic, the medication tends to stay concentrated on the lower (operative) side, resulting in a more limited nerve block. This may help preserve blood pressure stability.

We will enroll 70 patients aged 65 years or older with high anesthetic risk (ASA physical status III or IV) scheduled for unilateral lower extremity orthopedic surgery under spinal anesthesia. Patients will be randomly assigned to two groups: one group will be kept in the lateral decubitus position (operative side down) for 15 minutes before being turned supine, and the other group will be turned supine immediately after spinal anesthesia. Blood pressure, heart rate, and oxygen saturation will be monitored continuously. The primary outcome is the incidence of hypotension during the first 15 minutes after spinal anesthesia.

Våben og indgreb

Deltagergruppe / Arm
Intervention / Behandling
Eksperimentel: Group L: Lateral Decubitus Position
After spinal anesthesia with 12 mg 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine in the sitting position, patients are immediately placed in the lateral decubitus position with the operative side down and maintained for 15 minutes, then turned supine.
Andet: Lateral Decubitus Positioning
After spinal anesthesia with 12 mg of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine administered in the sitting position, patients are immediately placed in the lateral decubitus position with the operative side down. This position is maintained for 15 minutes to allow gravity-dependent concentration of the hyperbaric local anesthetic on the operative side, achieving predominantly unilateral sympathetic block. Patients are then repositioned supine for surgery.
Aktiv komparator: Group S: Immediate Supine Position
After spinal anesthesia with 12 mg 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine in the sitting position, patients are immediately turned to the supine position and maintained throughout the procedure.
Andet: Immediate Supine Positioning
After spinal anesthesia with 12 mg of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine administered in the sitting position, patients are immediately placed in the supine position. This results in bilateral distribution of the hyperbaric local anesthetic and serves as the active comparator.
