Abstract
Spinal anesthesia has been a cornerstone technique in lower-body surgeries for over a century, offering efficient and reliable sensory, motor, and autonomic nerve blockade. This retrospective study aimed to identify factors influencing sensory block levels and to develop a predictive model for dermatomal block height following spinal anesthesia with hyperbaric bupivacaine. Data from 150 patients were analyzed, considering variables such as Bupivacaine dose, height, weight, sex, and age. The results revealed that Bupivacaine dose, height, and sex were the most significant predictors of block height, while weight and age had smaller, yet notable, effects. These findings underscore the importance of personalized anesthesia protocols based on patient-specific characteristics to optimize outcomes. The study highlights the potential for predictive modeling to enhance the precision and efficacy of spinal anesthesia, paving the way for further research in diverse populations
