Skin Conductance as a Predictor of Spinal Anesthesia-Induced Hypotension in Geriatric Oncology Patients

Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Intervention Type: Other
Study Type: Observational
SUMMARY

Spinal anesthesia-induced hypotension is a common and clinically significant complication in elderly patients undergoing oncologic surgery. Early identification of patients at risk for hemodynamic instability remains a major challenge in perioperative management. Skin conductance reflects sympathetic nervous system activity and may provide a noninvasive indicator of autonomic responses. This prospective observational study aims to evaluate whether skin conductance measurements can predict the development of hypotension following spinal anesthesia in geriatric oncology patients undergoing urologic surgery. The findings may contribute to improved perioperative monitoring and early risk stratification in this vulnerable patient population.

Treatments
Geriatric Urologic Oncology Patients Undergoing Spinal Anesthesia
Geriatric patients undergoing urologic oncology surgery under spinal anesthesia will be prospectively observed. Skin conductance will be continuously monitored perioperatively as a noninvasive indicator of sympathetic nervous system activity. Hemodynamic parameters, including blood pressure and heart rate, will be recorded before and after spinal anesthesia. The occurrence of spinal anesthesia-induced hypotension will be assessed and its association with skin conductance measurements will be evaluated.
