摘要

<strong>Background:</strong> Lower extremity surgeries performed in elderly people usually have high prevalence of peri-operative medical problems related to anaesthesia. The overall objective of peri-operative care of geriatric population is to fast recovery from anaesthesia and avoid functional decline.<strong> Objective: </strong>To compare the peri-operative pulmonary status of combined spinal epidural anaesthesia (CSEA) and spinal anaesthesia (SA) in geriatric patients underwent lower extremity surgeries. Methods: This prospective comparative study was conducted at Department of Anaesthesia, Analgesia and Intensive Care Medicine, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU), Dhaka, Bangladesh from July 2016 to June 2018. A total of 70 geriatric cases that underwent lower extremity surgeries were included in this study. Cases were randomly allocated into two groups;35 in Group A (CSEA) and 35 in Group B (SAB). The different outcome variables between the groups like-duration of anaesthesia, respiratory rates (RR), oxygen saturation (SpO2), end tidal CO₂ (EtCO₂), peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR), breath holding test (BHT), peri-operative side effects of anaesthesia and post-operative visual analogue score (VAS) were analyzed and compared by statistical tests. <strong>Results: </strong>The mean age, weight, BMI of Group A and Group B patients were not significantly different (<em>p</em> > 0.05). No significant differences were observed in duration of surgery, gender and ASA grade between the groups (<em>p</em> > 0.05). Mean duration of anaesthesia, mean time to achieve target level of sensory block and mean time to achieve complete motor block were significantly higher in Group A (<em>p</em> < 0.001). Mean RR, SpO2, EtCO₂, PEFR and BHT of both groups were not significantly different (<em>p</em> > 0.05). Peri-operative side effects of anaesthesia and post-operative VAS were significantly less in group A patients (<em>p </em>< 0.05). <strong>Conclusion: </strong>Combined spi
