Preoperative Preparation Evaluation of the functional
cardiovascular reserves may be difficult due to the bedridden state, the confusion encountered, and the fracture. Simple steps (e.g., auscultation, ECG, and chest x-ray) can detect acute decompensation.

Regional anesthesia techniques
- Spinal - Epidural anesthesia
- Combined spinal epidural anaesthesia- Femoral and Sciatic nerve blocks (especially in patients with fixed cardiac output in whom a neuraxial block is not preferred due to possible haemodynamic changes specifically profound hypotension).
![Page 25: Anesthesia for orthopaedic replacement surgeries Prof.Dr.K.BALAKRISHNAN,Chennai](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062417/5519c726550346443e8b46e4/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
The alternative option in fixed cardiac output states include segmental epidural, here the titrated doses of local anaesthetic administration and just blocking the segments involved offers the benefits of regional anaesthesia in critically ill patients and at the same time provides stable haemodynamics.

The cementing can cause hemodynamic fluctuations
These fluctuations are related to the vasodilatory and mast-cell degranulating properties of the monomeric form of methylmethacrylate

Bone Cement Bone Cement implantation syndromeimplantation syndrome
Bone cement implantation syndrome (BCIS) is poorly understood. It is an important cause of intraoperative mortality and morbidity in patients undergoing cemented hip arthroplasty and may also be seen in the postoperative period in a milder form causing hypoxia and confusion.

Bone Cement Bone Cement implantation syndrome implantation syndrome - Treatment- Treatment
BCIS may be reversible with prompt basic life support and treatment to maintain both coronary perfusion pressure and right heart function.
Administer fluid volumes to augment right ventricular preload. Direct acting vasopressors, such as phenylephrine and norepinephrine can be titrated to restore adequate aortic perfusion
To improve ventricular contractility and function administer inotropes such as dobutamine.

Postoperative pain therapy is best a multimodal approach. - local anaesthetic infusions through perineural catheters supplemented with analgesics including a combination of paracetamol, tramadol, NSAID(when there is no contraindication) and opioids.

Conclusion Geriatric patients for joint
replacement surgeries offer a great challenge to the anaesthesiologists.
A careful preoperative examination, preoperative optimization, safe intraoperative anaesthetic techniques, good postoperative pain relief, good postoperative followup with rehabilitation would aid in decreasing the morbidity in these patients.
