About
This prospective observational study aims to evaluate predictive factors for spinal anesthesia-induced hypotension (SASH) in hypertensive patients undergoing elective surgery. Parameters such as internal jugular vein collapsibility index, carotid intima-media thickness, and flow-mediated dilation will be assessed using ultrasonography to determine their association with SASH. Demographic, anthropometric, and hemodynamic data will also be analyzed. The findings may improve perioperative management strategies for hypertensive patients receiving spinal anesthesia.
Full description
This study aims to investigate the relationship between carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) and spinal anesthesia-induced hypotension (SASH) in hypertensive patients. SASH is a common side effect of spinal anesthesia, with an incidence ranging from 15% to 33%, and is associated with significant clinical consequences such as increased morbidity and mortality. CIMT is a well-established marker of atherosclerotic burden and cardiovascular risk. This study hypothesizes that CIMT may be an independent predictor of SASH in hypertensive patients. Participants will undergo preoperative CIMT measurements and standardized spinal anesthesia procedures, with hemodynamic variables and potential risk factors recorded for analysis.
