Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this prospective observational study is to investigate the impact of tourniquet application on cardiac efficiency through the cardiac cycle efficiency parameter and to explore how central regional technique alters this effect compared to general anesthesia.

We aim to answer the following main questions: 1) Does the use of a tourniquet reduce cardiac efficiency? 2) Does the impact of tourniquet use on cardiac efficiency vary with general anesthesia or central regional technique? The patients included in the study will be divided into two groups based on whether they receive general anesthesia or combined spinal epidural anesthesia.The patients' cardiac cycle efficiency and advanced hemodynamic monitoring parameters will be recorded during procedure.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

After obtaining ethical committee approval (ATADEK; 2022-14/12), 43 patients undergoing elective unilateral total knee arthroplasty under tourniquet were enrolled in our prospective observational study. Patients were divided into two groups: general anesthesia (Group GA: 22 patients) or combined spinal epidural anesthesia (Group CSEA: 21 patients). Cardiac and vascular parameters were recorded using the new algorithmic application of arterial wave analysis called Pressure Recording Analytical Method (PRAM) at 9 time points: (T1) pre-anesthesia, (T2) post-anesthesia before tourniquet inflation, (T3-8) during tourniquet inflation, and (T9) after tourniquet deflation.
