Popis: Patients presenting for lower extremity revascularization often have multiple systemic comorbidities, making them high-risk surgical candidates. Neuraxial anesthesia and general anesthesia are equivocal in their effect on perioperative cardiac morbidity and improved graft patency. Postoperative epidural analgesia may improve perioperative cardiac morbidity. Systemic antithrombotic and anticoagulation therapy is common among this patient population and may affect anesthetic techniques.
