Interventions

TypeNameDescription
PROCEDUREGeneral anesthesiaGeneral anesthesia will be delivered per standard procedure. General anesthesia will include induction with propofol 1-3mg/kg followed by placement of a laryngeal mask airway with maintenance anesthesia of sevoflurane 0.5-1 minimum alveolar concentration (MAC).
PROCEDURESubarachnoid blockNeuraxial anesthesia will be performed at the L2-3 or L3-4 interspace with a 25-gauge Whitacre needle in the sitting position. After free flow of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), 40-45mg of 2-chloroprocaine will be injected based on patient's height and discretion of attending anesthesiologist, needle withdrawn and the patient placed supine.
