Thoracic segmental spinal anesthesia is a technique of regional anesthesia that can potentially be a suitable alternative to general anesthesia for certain cases such as laparoscopic surgeries, particularly in patients who are considered at high risk while under general anesthesia. Although not routinely used, the procedure has been shown as beneficial in maintaining hemodynamic stability for these patients and reducing side effects encountered with general anesthesia. This activity describes the procedure of thoracic segmental spinal anesthesia and explains the role of the interprofessional team in managing patients who have undergone this procedure.
