ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the effects of general anesthesia and combined spinal epidural anesthesia in elderly patients with lower limb fracture surgery, and to evaluate the effect of postoperative cognitive function and pain score.Methods Retrospective analysis, screening of intraoperative anesthesia, postoperative change lost invalid cases, from November 2012 to October 2015 in our hospital accepted surgical treatment of 180 patients with lower limb fracture surgery were selected according to different patients with different anesthesia methods can be divided into treatment group and control group, 90 cases each group of patients.Patients in the treatment group were treated with combined spinal epidural anesthesia , while the control group received general anesthesia.The incidence of cognitive dysfunction and postoperative pain scores were compared between the two groups. Results the incidence of cognitive dysfunction after surgery in 90 cases of observation group was lower than that of the control group , and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).The evaluation of two groups of postoperative chronic pain for 3 days, 6 days, 10 days, 15 days, the incidence rate of VAS score and the character, whether the impact on the daily life and the rest, the patients in the treatment group pain scores were significantly lower than the control group, the difference was significant (P <0.05).Conclusion After lumbar epidural anesthesia in elderly lower limb fracture surgery effect on cognitive function in patients with small, and can reduce the pain of patients, in the actual work according to the actual situation of different specific problems in different specific analysis.
