Background Due to its affordability and ease of application, the subarachnoid block is the most frequently used method for lower abdominal procedures. Levobupivacaine has an onset of sensory and motor blockade comparable to that of bupivacaine and prolongs the duration of analgesia while facilitating quick recovery from motor block. Fentanyl and dexmedetomidine, when used as additives to intrathecal local anesthetic, can extend the duration of sensory and motor blockade and enhance postoperative analgesia.

Introduction: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy has evolved into a daycare procedure thanks to advancements in both surgical and anesthetic techniques. Regional anesthesia, specifically segmental thoracic spinal anesthesia (TSA), offers distinct benefits over general anesthesia, such as enhanced hemodynamic stability and quicker recovery, especially in high-risk patients. This study aims to compare the sensory and motor block characteristics, hemodynamic stability, and incidence of adverse effects between isobaric and hyperbaric 0.

Objective: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the localization and configuration of vibration and obstruction in drug-induced sleep endoscopy(DISE) in obstructive sleep apnea patients and to investigate the optimal sedation depth.
Materials And Methods: The study was conducted prospectively with 42 patients. After achieving sedation with intravenous anesthetic agents, simultaneous monitoring of the patient's bispectrometry (BIS), DISE and sleep testing with a type 2 polysomnography device were performed.
