Background: Hemodynamic stability is a crucial aspect during ORIF procedures, and the type of anesthesia used can influence blood pressure, heart rate, and MAP throughout surgery. Objective: To compare hemodynamic stability between regional anesthesia and general anesthesia in ORIF patients. Methods: A case study of five patients, two receiving regional anesthesia and three receiving general anesthesia. Parameters observed included blood pressure, MAP, heart rate, and oxygen saturation during preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative phases. Results: Regional anesthesia caused an initial MAP decrease but remained stable with fluid therapy alone. Hemodynamic fluctuations were smaller compared to general anesthesia. In the general anesthesia group, MAP changes were greater, especially after induction, with two patients experiencing transient hypotension before stabilization. Conclusion: Regional anesthesia provides better hemodynamic stability compared to general anesthesia in ORIF patients.
