title: [Anaesthetic block close to spinal cord of gynaecological high-risk patients (author's transl)].
abstract: Conduction anaesthesia was applied close to the spinal cord of 91 gynaecological patients whose risk in the context of surgery had been found to be increased on account of advanced age or for severe secondary internal diseases. The rate of complications of these patients with regional anaesthesia was compared to that of another group of 91 patients on whom operations were performed under general anaesthesia. The group with anaesthetic block close to the spinal cord exhibited less intra-operative variation in arterial pressure and less postoperative disorders of the respiratory organs. The metabolism of diabetic patients was more easily controlled and managed under regional anaesthesia. Conduction anaesthesia close to the spinal cord is recommended for patients in geriatric condition or with concomitant internal disorders.
