Orthopedic lower limb procedures are carried out under spinal anesthesia which involves administration of drugs in the space surrounding the spinal cord. From there the drug acts on the spinal cord blocking electrical signals moving across nerve fibers thereby providing sufficient pain relief and surgical conditions. However blocking of these fibers result in reduce signal transmission to blood vessels and heart resulting in fall in blood pressure. Various drugs can be used to treat or prevent this hypotension. One such drug is Dexamethasone which is a steroid. This drug can be administered before spinal anesthesia through Intravenous route to prevent fall in blood pressure.
