ABSTRACT
Spinal anesthesia usually lasts up to two hours, but an infusion of IV dexmedetomidine can prolong it to three to four hours. We report two cases where single spinal anesthesia with IV dexmedetomidine was maintained for more than six hours during tibia fracture surgery. The spinal anesthesia was maintained for 350 and 390 minutes without another medication, and the sensory level confirmed after the surgery was T10 and L1. Dexmedetomidine can very-prolong the duration of spinal anesthesia beyond what has been reported. However, longer infusion times can also result in longer recovery times.
