title: [Intravenous anesthesia with perfused propofol combined with loco-regional spinal anesthesia].
abstract: The authors review the advantages and disadvantages of general and regional anesthesia in bad clinical conditions. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of Blended Anesthesia (association of general anesthesia with a regional technique) in 25 patients belonging to ASA classes II-III-IV, undergoing surgery for various disease. General anesthesia was provided by perfusion of propofol, after a peridural or subarachnoid continuous anesthesia was started. Patients were either in spontaneous or controlled ventilation. There were no cases of hypotension or other important side effects and the majority of patients judged good the anesthetic technique in regard to lack of pain, exhaustion and recall of operation.
