Journal Title: Indian Journal of Clinical Anaesthesia - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
Cardiac patient for non cardiac surgery has since forever been a topic of interest for the anaesthesiologist Few cases have only been reported with their own suitable line of management however the simultaneous use of combined epidural spinal anaesthesia and Dexmedetomidine an 2 agonist has been studied by only a handful Use of epidural for incremental doses of local anaesthetic for allaying the postoperative pain and thereby reducing the occurrence of ischemic events is also being describedKeywords Ischaemic Heart Disease Epidural Anaesthesia Ejection Fraction Dexmedetomidine
