Brief Summary

Spinal anaesthesia is type a of neuraxialanaesthesia technique which involves placing local anaesthetic directly in theintrathecal space (subarachnoid space). The first regional anaesthetictechnique performed was spinal anaesthesia, and the first operation underspinal anaesthesia was performed in 1898 in Germany by August Bier.Itis highly popular among anaesthesiologists and commonly used worldwide.The advantages of an awake patient, minimal drug costs, rapid patient turnovercoupled with fast onset, effective sensory, motor blockade and post-operativeanalgesia with fast post-operative recovery has made it method of choice formany surgical procedures..
