About this study

Geriatric patients who received anesthesia undergoing total hip arthroplasty were randomized by means of a computer-generated randomization order into two groups; general anesthesia group (Group 1) and spinal anesthesia group (Group 2). Before and after induction of the general or spinal anesthesia, patients were monitorized with near infrared spectroscopy for regional cerebral oxygen saturation. Findings were compared statistically.
