“…We suggest that a lower mean LF/HF ratio and a low number of patients with LF/DF of >2.5 in our study was the reason for the difference from other studies. Our findings were similar to those of Meyhoff et al (35), who found no difference in the incidence of spinal anesthesia-induced hypotension in patients with LF/ HF above or below 2.5 (6 patients among 9 and 9 patients among 15, respectively). The principal goal of this study was to evaluate the effect of spinal anesthesia on HRV, not to use HRV as a prognostic tool.…”

“…A significant factor for the development of hypotension is the age of the anaesthetized patients. Higher incidences of hypotension are observed in the elderly, i.e., 70−75% [20,22]. In our population, the patients were under 60 years of age, and the age-related risk was irrelevant.…”

“…1 It is more common in elderly patients, with a reported incidence of 65-75%. [2][3][4] In addition, hypotension during spinal anesthesia may be combined with bradycardia-caused by the blockade of sympathetic cardiac accelerator fibers that arise at T1-T4-to prevent the development of reflex tachycardia. 5 Hemodynamic changes induced by spinal anesthesia can be deleterious in elderly patients with decreased cardiovascular reserve and other comorbidities due to the risk of organ ischemia.…”
