Anesthesia on elder patients in hip joint replacement / 中国康复理论与实践

ABSTRACT

@#ObjectiveTo evaluate the two common anesthesia techniques used in the hip joint replacement surgery (HJRS) and provide references to the most reasonable choice for them. MethodsTo undertake a retrospective study on 34 patients that received continuous epidural anesthesia(CEA) or combined intravenous and inhaled anesthesia(CIIA)respectively in HJRS. Results and Conclusions CEA had higher incidence of bone cement reaction than that of CIIA, whereas there was no significant difference in blood loss and the anesthesia efficacy between them. CIIA seemed to be easier to be performed. CIIA sounds more reasonable than CEA in HJRS although both of them are safe anesthesia techniques.
