Spinal anesthesia effect on blood pressure during hip replacement
This study compares two types of spinal anesthesia (one side vs both sides) during hip replacement surgery to see how they affect blood pressure. It uses a special monitor to track blood pressure continuously, which may help improve safety for older patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 65 years or older.
- You are scheduled for hip replacement surgery (total hip arthroplasty).
- You are otherwise healthy or have mild to severe health conditions (classified as ASA II, III, or IV).
- You are alert, conscious, and able to cooperate (GCS 13-15).
- You can have an arterial line placed for monitoring and you agree to the procedure.
- You have no conditions that would make spinal anesthesia unsafe (like bleeding problems, infections, or severe spinal issues).

This trial compares two positions for giving spinal anesthesia during hip fracture surgery to see which one works on only one side of the body. It may help patients get better pain relief with fewer side effects.
This study compares two types of anesthesia (general and spinal) for people having a total hip or knee replacement. The goal is to see which approach is better for recovery and overall outcomes.
This trial tests a type of nerve block (sacral canal block) to help manage blood pressure during hip replacement surgery. It aims to see if it can safely lower blood pressure on purpose, which may reduce bleeding and improve recovery.
This study compares general anesthesia (you are completely asleep) versus spinal anesthesia (you are awake but numb from the waist down) during hip surgery to see which one is better at preventing heart muscle damage. It is for people 65 and older who are at moderate to high risk for heart problems.
This study compares two types of anesthesia for people having a hip replacement through the front (anterior) approach. The goal is to see which method provides better pain control and recovery after surgery.
This study compares two types of anesthesia during hip replacement surgery: one that uses less opioid pain medicine by using a special monitor (CARDEAN® Index) and one that uses no opioids at all. It aims to find which approach gives better pain control and recovery.
