Filter by:This study is conducted to evaluate the efficacy of simultaneous injection of propofol and rocuronium in inducing general anesthesia.
Using very slow or fast propofol intravenous injection, monitored using standard American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA) standard and SEDLine EEG (Med Tech), the patient was evaluate by a neurologist every 30 sec using the FOUR coma scale.
This retrospective study the safety and efficacy of intravenous propofol used in children under 2 years of age during general anesthesia for surgery.
Purpose: This prospective, randomised, controlled, single-blind, multicentre study was designed to investigate the effects of peripheral nerve block methods (applied using unilateral spinal anaesthesia [USA] on elderly patients scheduled to undergo total knee arthroplasty) on perioperative haemodynamic parameters and the postoperative analgesia period. Materials and Methods: Sixty patients in the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) Physical Status II-III group were randomly divided into two groups. Spinal anaesthesia was performed in the USA group, in the lateral position through the intervertebral space, with 2 ml of hyperbaric bupivacaine (L4-L5 or L3-L4); 0.5% bupivacaine hydrochloride and 2% lidocaine were combined for the psoas compartment-sciatic (PCS) group, and the mixture was used for psoas compartment block (PCB) and sciatic nerve block. The haemodynamic parameters were recorded every 5 minutes until the end of the preoperative and perioperative operation periods and postoperative first analgesic application time.
In this randomized controlled trial, we aimed to compare the efficacy of video-stylet guided laryngeal mask airway real time insertion technique with the standard recommended index finger-guided insertion technique in pediatric patients.
There is currently no standard of care or best practice for managing post-operative pain for patients undergoing hip arthroscopy. Perioperative pain with these procedures can be substantial. It has been shown that up to 90% of patients in the Post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) following hip arthroscopy report pain scores of 7/10. Poor pain management following hip fracture surgery directly results in increased time spent in high cost health care areas and delayed time to ambulation. Continuous regional anesthesia following hip arthroplasty has been shown to reduce narcotic consumption and related side-effects (reduction of post-operative pain, delirium, and length of stay). The purpose of this research is to evaluate the effectiveness of a fascia iliaca nerve block in reducing post-operative pain within the first 24 hours following hip arthroscopy. Additionally, the pharmacokinetics of the drug ropivacaine will be studied via laboratory analysis of blood samples. Ultimately, the objective of this research is to develop a standard of care or best practice for the management of post-operative pain following hip arthroscopy. This study will include the entire age range of patients who are seen for hip arthroscopy at Boston Children's Hospital, for which there is a 35 year age limit. Both sexes will be included in the study. The study design will be real catheter versus a sham catheter(control). All subjects will receive general anesthesia. The catheters (real or sham) will be administered after the induction of general anesthesia and before the beginning of the surgery until 24 hours after recorded PACU admittance time. The anesthesia team placing the block will not be blinded. The orthopaedic surgeon (Dr. Yen) and all evaluators will be blinded to the absence or presence of a real catheter. In the case of a sham catheter, the anesthesia team will rig a pump to look like it is dispensing local anesthesia. To determine the pharmacokinetics of ropivicaine during standard fascia iliaca block, following induction of general anesthesia, a large bore IV catheter will be inserted for the purpose of blood draws (all patients).
The aim of this prospective randomized study is to investigate comparatively the effect of neostigmine-atropine versus sugammadex on speed and quality of recovery and on postoperative cognitive function & behavior in children undergoing ENT surgery under general anaesthesia.
AMSA nerve block injection is targeted anterior superior alveolar nerve and middle superior alveolar nerve branches of infraorbital nerve through nutrient canals. Therefore, central to second premolar teeth of one quadrant can be anesthetized. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy of AMSA nerve block injection at an anterior and a posterior positions compared to commonly administrated site.
Introduction: The air-QⓇ Intubating Laryngeal Airway (ILA) is a newer supraglottic airway. It is approved for use as a primary airway and as an aid for intubation in situations of anticipated or unanticipated difficult airways. A unique feature of this device as compared to other airways on the market is the size of the inner diameter (ID) and length of its airway tube. Direct placement of tracheal tubes > 7.5 mm ID through the airway tube is possible. The ProSealTM LMA is considered the gold standard for supraglottic devices with respect to airway seal pressure. On average, it is reported to be approximately 28 cmH2O. This is significantly higher than that of the first generation LMA, the LMA-ClassicTM, which has a maximum seal pressure of 20 cmH2O, but averages 16-18 cmH2O in actual practice. In this study the investigators aim to test whether the air-QⓇ creates an airway seal pressure that is similar to the LMA-ProSealTM, whether the position of the air-QⓇ in relation to the vocal cords, as assessed by fiberoptic endoscopy, is similar to that of the LMA-ProSealTM and whether airway morbidity is similar between the air-QⓇ and the LMA-ProSealTM.
