Filter by:This prospective study aimed to determine the minimal level of Bispectral index needed for quality laryngoscopy before ear, nose and throat surgery in children.
This study intends to show the efficacy of remifentanil-dexmedetomidine infusions in combination with a caudal block for patients ages 1 year to 3 years old receiving elective surgery to investigate alternatives to the currently used volatile anesthetics.
The investigators plan to determine the incidence of hemi-diaphragmatic paresis (HDP) with two commonly used techniques of supraclavicular nerve block, the single and double injection techniques. It is our hypothesis that a double injection peripheral nerve block technique will increase the risk of HDP when compared to a single injection technique.
Anesthesia depth affects the proliferation of lymphocytes to NK-cells and memory T-cells effect and the phagocytosis activity of macrophages in healthy patients. ASA 1-3 subjects undergoing extended shoulder surgery under continuous regional anesthesia randomly were assigned to a deep or a shallow anesthesia level (BIS <35 or >55) for more than an hour. Immune response is measured by lymphocyte proliferation as well as neutrophil and monocyte phagocytosis activity.
Pre-oxygenation with high-flow nasal cannula oxygen has been evaluated in a limited number of studies and seems to be better than traditional preoxygenation with a tight fitting mask. Oxygenation with high-flow nasal cannula in apnea demonstrates that this could be done safely for up to 25 mins with preserved saturation. Based on this, the investigators want to evaluate whether this novel concept of preoxygenation can prolong the time to desaturation in emergency anesthesia while securing a possibly difficult airway. This may reduce the number of hypoxic events during intubation. This novel concept has already been tested in clinical practice in certain cases but not during rapid sequence induction for acute surgery. Objectives and Purpose The general purpose of this project is to compare a new preoxygenation technique based on humidified oxygen in a high-flow nasal cannula with traditional preoxygenation with a tight fitting mask during rapid sequence induction intubation with focus on gas exchange.
With blocks of lumbar and lumbar plexus, we can reduce the intravenous anesthetics usage. To offer an satisfied surgery process for patients, a proper sedation is necessary. So in this study, we want to investigate the influence of two different sedative drugs on outcomes of patients received hip replacement surgery .
The investigators will use health administrative data to examine the variation of anesthesia type for hip fracture surgery, as well as sources of variation and predictors of variation.
Adequate blood oxygenation and ventilation/perfusion matching should be the main goal of anaesthetic and intensive care management. At present, the sole method of improving gas exchange restricted by ventilation/perfusion mismatching is independent ventilation with two ventilators. Recently, however, a unique device has been developed, enabling ventilation of independent lungs in 1:1, 2:1, 3:1, and 5:1 proportions. The main goal of the study was to evaluate the device's utility, precision and impact on biomechanical lung parameters during thoracic surgery under general anaesthesia with double lumen tube intubation. Secondly- to measure the gas distribution in supine and lateral decubitus position.
Observational study evaluating effect general or regional anaesthesia on glycocalyx by using perfused Boundary Region in sublingual microcirculation.
Acute respiratory failure is frequent during rhythmology procedure under light sedation in high risks selected patients. Non invasive ventilation (NIV) is recommended for acute cardiogenic pulmonary oedema and sleep apnea. The investigators will perform a monocentric, prospective, randomized controlled trial to compare the efficacy of NIV which associated pressure support ventilation (PSV: 5 to 15 cmH2O) and positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP: 5 to 10 cmH2O) with standard oxygen therapy in prevention of peroperative respiratory event. Our hypothesis is that peroperative use of NIV should reduce the incidence of apnea and hypoxia during procedure in rhythmology under light sedation.
