ABSTRACT

Spinal anesthesia is one of the most used anesthetic techniques in clinical practice, it consists of administering local anesthetic in the subarachnoid space. The use of ropivacaine has an onset of action of 10 to 15 minutes, with a longer duration of the anesthetic and analgesic effect, with a decrease in motor blockade. Due to the limited evidence described, we decide to investigate the experience of subarachnoid anesthesia in surgery, and evaluate the duration of motor and sensory blockade. The design of this study was retrospective, observational, descriptive, cross-sectional, reviewing records at a single center (Hospital Angeles Mocel) between March- December 2024. A sample of 49 patients was taken, describing the duration of motor and sensory block, hemodynamic changes in transanesthetic. It was found that the average motor time was 377 minutes and sensory time was 298.4 minutes, we found that ropivacaine produced a shorter duration of motor block but a longer duration of sensory block. The use of ropivacaine in the intrathecal space is considered a safe and effective technique, with a better prognosis for the patient.
