RESUMEN
Objetivos. Determinar si la mortalidad temprana y a seis meses en pacientes ancianos, sometidos a cirugías de cadera, está relacionada con el tipo de anestesia utilizada. Métodos. Se diseñó un estudio clínico controlado de 89 pacientes distribuidos en dos grupos. Los pacientes fueron asignados aleatoriamente, las dos técnicas se estandarizaron y todos tuvieron catéter epidural durante 48 horas después de la cirugía. Se definió la morbilidad según la codificación CIE X y la mortalidad, según el certificado de defunción. Se hizo seguimiento posquirúrgico inmediato en recuperación y en salas de hospitalización, hasta que fueron dados de alta. El seguimiento se continuó telefónicamente al mes, a los tres meses y a los seis meses. Resultados. La mortalidad fue de 14,61% y el riesgo absoluto y el riesgo relativo fueron mayores en el grupo de anestesia general (20%) en comparación con la anestesia regional selectiva (9,1%), pero sin diferencias significativas entre ellos. Las causas de muerte fueron de origen cardiovascular (10,1%) e infeccioso (4,5%), sin diferencias entre los grupos. Se presentó una morbilidad general de 31,6%, con mayor riesgo absoluto y riesgo relativo en el grupo intervenido que en el control, pero sin diferencias significativas. Conclusiones. La mortalidad temprana y a seis meses con anestesia general, comparadas con la anestesia regional selectiva, presentan mayor riesgo absoluto y riesgo relativo (20% Vs.11,6%; RR=2,2), diferencias significativas entre los dos grupos. Se requiere mayor poder para demostrar significancia.
ABSTRACT

Objectives:

Determining whether early mortality and at six months in elderly patients undergoing hip surgery was related to the type of anaesthesia used.

Methods:

A controlled clinical trial was designed using 89 patients distributed into two groups. Patients were randomly assigned. Both techniques were standardised and all had an epidural catheter for 48 hrs POP. Morbidity was defined according to CIE X codification and mortality according to death certificate. Immediate post-operative follow-up was carried out in recovery and intrahospital periods until patients were discharged. Telephonic follow-up was continued after one month, the third month and after six months.

Results:

Mortality was 14.61%, absolute and relative risks being greater in the general anaesthesia group of (20%) cf 9.09% having selective regional anaesthesia, but with no significant differences between them. Causes of death were cardiovascular (10.12%) and infectious aetiology (4.49%), having no differences between groups. 31.57% general morbidity was presented, having greater absolute and relative risks in the group intervened than in the control group, but without significant differences.

Conclusions:

Early mortality and at six months with general anaesthesia compared to selective regional anaesthesia presented greater absolute and relative risks (20% cf 11.61% RR=2.2), having significant differences between both groups. Greater power is needed for demonstrating significance.
