Filter by:Obese patients have a higher risk of anesthesia compared to the non-obese, including difficult intubation, rapid desaturation, difficult vascular access, and delayed recovery from anesthesia. This study aims to investigate the optimal anesthesia strategy for morbidly obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery in airway management, preoxygenation, arterial cannulation, and type of volatile anesthetic with M-Entropy guidance. The investigators will conduct a two-year clinical trial using permuted block randomization to evaluate multiple outcomes in patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) at Shuang Ho Hospital, Taipei Medical University. Particularly, the investigators will explore the role of ultrasound, an easily accessible modality for anesthesiologists, in examining upper airway anatomy and guiding arterial cannulation. The investigators will also assess the effectiveness of high-flow nasal cannula as a preoxygenation tool in preventing desaturation.
At present, the elderly population in China has reached 241 million, and there are more than 20 million elderly surgical patients every year, accounting for about 25% of the surgical population. However, there is no research report on the anesthesia related risk factors of death of elderly patients in hospital. The purpose of this study is to analyze the perioperative data of multicenter database, and to explore the anesthesia related death risk factors of elderly patients with noncardiac surgery in the investigator's country, especially within 24 hours after surgery, so as to help improve the anesthesia management technology of elderly patients during surgery, improve the medical quality of perioperative period, and improve the prognosis of patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine if a single dose of sublingual sufentanil given 15-30 minutes prior to wake up is efficacious at reducing recovery room time.
To find out the risk factors for postoperative shoulder-tip pain after laparoscopic surgery undergoing general anesthesia.
NIPE monitor is the recently developed pediatric version of the ANI monitor, which is used in adults to monitor analgesia during general anesthesia. In adults, under general anesthesia, ANI decreases after a nociceptive stimulation. The amplitude of this decrease is related to the intensity of the stim. This study aims to investigate if NIPE index decreases in the same manner after stimulations in anesthetized children.
This research is expected to study ultrasonic measurement of internal jugular vein and inferior vena cava, which can be used as a good index to predict hypotension after anesthesia induction, and its measurement method is simple and quick.
This study is intended to investigate usefulness of smart-glasses for ultrasound-guided central venous catheterization in pediatric patients, by comparing success rate and elapsed time. The hypothesis is that smart-glasses would increase success rate in first trial.
This study aim is to compare the efficiency and safety of segmental epidural block versus general anesthesia in cancer patients undergoing surgical feeding jejunostomy
This is a prospective study that will compare the blood pressure readings from an arterial cannula with those obtained non-invasively by the NICCI device. The study will enroll 50 patients into each of three weight ranges: 10-20 kg, 20-40 kg, and 40-80 kg. The NICCI, Pulsion/GETINGE uses novel technology to provide a continuous estimation of BP displayed as a waveform similar to that seen with an invasive arterial cannula, but is totally non-invasive by using the fingers. The patient rests their hand on the device, which is about the size of a computer mouse, and then a blood pressure cuff goes around their upper arm.
This study evaluates the analgesia induced by suprascapular nerve block in comparison to interscalene nerve block in arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs. The experimental and the control group will receive the suprascapular nerve block and interscalene nerve block, respectively.
