    Hypotensive anesthesia techniques improve surgical field clarity in orthognathic surgery by reducing blood flow. This method, combined with careful patient selection and monitoring, enhances safety and may reduce the need for blood transfusions.

    Area of Science:

    • Anesthesiology
    • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

    Background:

    • Orthognathic surgery involves extensive facial vascularity, posing challenges for achieving adequate hemostasis.
    • Maintaining a clear operative field is crucial for surgical precision and patient safety during these procedures.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of hypotensive anesthetic techniques in improving operative conditions during orthognathic surgery.
    • To assess the safety and benefits of controlled hypotension in this surgical context.

    Main Methods:

    • Implementation of hypotensive anesthetic techniques, including systemic vasodilators, ganglionic blockade, and patient positioning.
    • Comprehensive intraoperative monitoring of physiological parameters.
    • Careful patient selection and pre-anesthetic evaluation.

    Main Results:

    • Hypotensive techniques effectively altered regional tissue perfusion, leading to clearer operative fields.
    • The approach facilitated safe anesthesia and potentially decreased surgical operating times.
    • The need for intraoperative blood transfusions was typically obviated.

    Conclusions:

    • Hypotensive anesthesia is a valuable strategy for managing hemostasis and improving visualization in orthognathic surgery.
    • Close collaboration between surgical and anesthesia teams, alongside meticulous patient management, ensures the safe application of this technique.
