Synopsis:

The aim of this clinical observation study is to assess whether there is any effect of bupivacaine and levobupivacaine on transient evoked oto-acoustic emissions(TEOAE) tests following spinal anaesthesia; TEOAE tests enable us to evaluate hearing ability objectively.

ABSTRACT

Purpose: To evaluate whether there is any effect of different local anaesthetic agents on hearing loss after spinal anaesthesia.

INTRODUCTION

Hip arthroplasty is one of the most common surgical procedures for pain relief due to coxarthrosis. However, the operation is contraindicated for some elderly patients because of multiple co-morbidities. On the other hand, conventional drugs have either too many side effects or are ineffective. Major symptoms of patients with hip pain include groin, thigh and trochanteric pain.
