Abstract

Lower extremity peripheral nerve blocks are applications that can significantly reduce mortality and morbidity, especially orthopedic surgical procedures. These applications have less complication than neuroaxial block and general an-esthesia. They are frequently used because of the need to provide effective post-operative analgesia and to accelerate patient mobilizations. In this case report, the patient's surgery was completed using the lumbar plexus block safely. A 78-year-old male patient was admitted to the department of orthopedics due to the left femur fracture. Preoperative evaluation of the patient revealed that he had Alzheimer's Disease, acute bronchitis diagnosed by chest diseases, hypertension, cardiac arrhyth-mia, Diabetes Mellutus diagnosis and treatment. In this case report, a lumbar plexus block was applied as anesthesia to the patient to be treated by geriatric hip surgery according to American Society of Anesthesiologists ASA 4 classification. The lomber plexus block provided effective analgesia for patient during operation. During the op-eration, the hemodynamics remained stable and safe anesthesia was achieved. The high ASA of the patient was found to be risky for both general and spinal anesthesia. Therefore, we think that peripheral blocks are safer than other anesthesia methods in geriatric patients and orthopedic surgeries.

Özet

Alt ekstremite periferik sinir blokları, ortopedik cerrahi işlemler başta olmak üzeremortalite ve morbiditeyi ciddi oranda azaltabilen uygulamalardır. Bu uygulamalar,nöroaksiyal bloklar ve genel anesteziye göre daha az komplikasyona sahip olmaları, hastalara etkin postoperatif analjezi temin etmeleri ve hastaların mobilizasyonlarını hızlandırmaları nedeniyle sıklıkla kullanılan üstün anestezi ve analjezi uygulamalarıdır. Bu olgu sunumundaki geriatrik hastada lomber pleksus bloğu güvenlekullanılarak hastanın cerrahisi tamamlanmıştır. 78 yaşında 75 kg olan erkek hastadüşme sonucu sol femur fraktürü gelişmesi nedeniyle ortopedi servisine yatırılmıştır.Hastanın yapılan preoperatif değerlendirilmesinde alzheimer hastası olduğu, akutbronşit tanısıyla göğüs hastalıkları tarafından tedavi başlandığı, hipertansiyon, kardiyak aritmi, diabetes mellutus tanılarının olduğu ve tedavi aldığı öğrenildi. Bu olgusunumunda, American Society of Anesthesiologists’e göre ASA 4 sınıflandırmasındayer alan geriatrik kalça cerrahisi yapılacak hastaya anestezi yöntemi olarak lomberpleksus bloğu uygulandı. Lomber pleksus bloğu ile hastada operasyon için etkin analjezi sağlandı. Hastanın operasyon süresince hemodinamisi stabil olarak seyretti vegüvenli bir anestezi sağlandı. Hastanın yüksek ASA’ya sahip olması genel anestezive spinal anestezi için riskli bulunmuştur. Bundan dolayı, geriatrik hastalarda ve ortopedik cerrahilerde periferik blokların diğer anestezi yöntemlerine göre güvenli biralternatif olacağı düşüncesindeyiz.
