Effect of Combined Spinal and Epidural Anesthesia on the Treatment of Lower Limb Fracture in the Elderly
Objective To analyze the effect of combined spinal and epidural anesthesia in the treatment of lower limb fractures in the elderly. Methods A total of 70 elderly patients with lower extremity fractures were enrolled in our hospital in the past two years. The specific time period was from June 2016 to July 2018, and the group was assigned by digital random method. Anesthesia, for the observation group, a group of general anesthesia, for the general group, comparing the anesthetic effect of the two groups of patients. Results There was no statistically significant difference in HR, SBP and DBP between the observation group and the anesthesia (P>0.05). The excellent rate of anesthesia in the observation group was higher than that in the normal group, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion Combined spinal-epidural anesthesia has little effect on the physical signs of elderly patients with lower extremity fractures, but the anesthetic effect is higher. It is recommended to be used in clinical practice.
