Comparison Between General Anesthesia and Spinal Anesthesia in the Effect on Hemodynamic Stability in Patients Hernia Repair in Hospitals in the Iraqi City of Karbala

Introduction: When it comes to methods, drugs, strategies, and guidelines for selecting the best anesthesia, the primary concern of the anesthesia and critical care department staff remains selecting the anesthetic that poses the least risk to the patient's life. For individuals who repair hernias, spinal anesthesia is the most effective and common type of anesthetic. Subjects and methods: a current and precise analysis of the patients that visit Karbala's Al-Hassan Hospital and Al-Hussein Medical City. We separated the (100) patients who had a herniotomy into two groups based on the forms of spinal and general anesthesia (50) patients were put under spinal anesthesia and (50) patients were put under general anesthesia. Analysis was done on the patient's age, weight, blood pressure change, and pulse rate. In order to conduct meticulous follow-up before to, during, and following procedures, the study examined patients between the ages of (20) and (90) and separated them into two groups: general anesthesia (GA) and spinal anesthesia (SA). Results: We demonstrate that it is also more stable in SA, which is around (56%), compared to (GA), which is roughly (40%). However, blood pressure is higher in (GA), which was (32%), and in (SA), which was (24%), and lower in (GA), which was (28%), and in SA, it was (20%). As demonstrated in this study, the heart rate is more stable in (SA 56%) compared to (GA 32%), and it increases in (SA 34%), while it increases in (GA 60%). The impact of (SA) is more consistent, and the heart rate dropped by 10% in (SA) and around 8% in (GA). Conclusions: We discovered that spinal anesthesia was superior to general anesthesia in terms of maintaining minimum or normal heart rate and blood pressure stability.
