Effect of needle types and diameters using in spinal anesthesia on optic nerve sheath diameter: Prospective randomized study

In conclusion, our study suggests that while subarachnoid injection and tourniquet inflation do not impact intracranial pressure (ICP), tourniquet deflation leads to an increase in ICP during lower limb surgery under SA. Therefore, caution should be exercised when using a tourniquet in patients at risk of elevated ICP.

Abstract

In conclusion, our study suggests that while subarachnoid injection and tourniquet inflation do not impact intracranial pressure (ICP), tourniquet deflation leads to an increase in ICP during lower limb surgery under SA. Therefore, caution should be exercised when using a tourniquet in patients at risk of elevated ICP.
