ABSTRACT
The beach chair position and induced hypotension are used to improve the surgical field during arthroscopic shoulder surgery. However, it has the potential to cause postoperative neurological complications due to cerebral hypoperfusion. The aim of this paper is to present the current concepts relating to cardiac neurological complications associated with this position.
