Filter by:Introduction: This study investigated the efficacy of sacral erector spinae plane block (ESPB) for managing postoperative pain and reducing opioid consumption in patients undergoing hemorrhoid and pilonidal sinus (PS) surgery.
Prediction of difficult preoperative intubation in obese patients and completion of preparations for difficult intubation both reduce the risk of repeated intubation and prevent complications. In this study, the investigators aimed to evaluate whether anthropometric measurements are superior in defining difficult preoperative airways.
This study investigates the efficacy of different anesthesia methods (general anesthesia with laryngeal mask airway and local nebulized anesthesia) for transbronchial biopsy using an electronic bronchoscope. The study retrospectively analyzed cases of transbronchial biopsy performed at the Respiratory Endoscopy Center of Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital from June 5, 2020, to June 5, 2024. Data collected included age, gender, primary diagnosis, anesthesia method, biopsy method, operation time (excluding general anesthesia and laryngeal mask airway placement time), lesion location and size, pathological results, and follow-up status.
This study is to investigate whether a different volume of ropivacaine, with the same prescribed dosage based on body weight, can affect block efficacy, duration and side effects in the first 24 hours postoperatively.
A combined approach of cytoreductive surgery (SRC) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) represents a potential treatment option for patients diagnosed with primary or secondary gastrointestinal or gynaecological malignancies with peritoneal involvement. While the surgical phase of the operation macroscopically addresses the cancerous tissue, the HIPEC phase targets the microscopic tumour cells that remain after surgery (1). The surgical procedure known as SRC and HIPEC is one of the most complex surgical procedures, presenting numerous challenges for both the surgical and anaesthesia teams. The haemodynamic, haematological and metabolic changes that occur before, during and in the early postoperative period are associated with an increased risk of morbidity and mortality. It is therefore crucial for anaesthesia management to maintain normovolemia during surgery, compensate for hypothermia in the surgical phase and hyperthermia in the HIPEC phase, and maintain metabolic and haemodynamic balance throughout the entire procedure. The objective of this study was to retrospectively examine the anaesthesia management and clinical outcomes in patients who underwent cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in order to create literature information that can facilitate the early recognition and prevention of haemodynamic, haematological and metabolic problems that occur especially in the intraoperative and postoperative period.
To retrospectively analyze the preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative anesthesia management of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy undergoing TA-BSM in the investigators' hospital, and to provide clinical basis for the development of reasonable and standardized perioperative anesthesia program for these patients.
This study aims to analyze the effect of laparoscopic guided transversus abdominis plane (LG-TAP) block compared to placebo for postoperative analgesia following laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. One group of participants received a (LG-TAP) block with local anesthetic while the other group received (LG-TAP) block with saline solution (placebo).
Objective To prospectively determine the median effective dose (ED50) of propofol for inhibiting a response to laryngeal mask airway (LMA) insertion when combined with different doses of esketamine in female patients. Methods Fifty-eight female patients (aged 20-60, ASAⅠ-Ⅱ) scheduled for elective hysteroscopy were enrolled and randomly divided into two groups, one administered 0.2 mg/kg of esketamine (K1 group, n = 28) and the other 0.3 mg/kg of esketamine (K2 group, n = 30). The two groups received the corresponding doses of esketamine intravenously, followed by an intravenous injection of propofol (injection time was 30 s). The initial dose of propofol was 2 mg/kg, and the dose ratio of propofol in the adjacent patients was 0.9. If there was a positive reaction to LMA insertion, the dose ratio in the next patient was increased by one gradient, and if not, the dose ratio was decreased by one gradient. The median effective dose (ED50), 95% effective dose (ED95) and 95% confidence interval (95%CI) of propofol for inhibiting a response to LMA insertion in the two esketamine groups were calculated using a probit analysis.
This study aimed to understand how ready Zimbabwe's public hospitals are to perform essential surgeries, which are critical for treating a wide range of health issues from emergencies like car accidents to planned procedures such as childbirth by caesarean section. The researchers looked at hospitals across Zimbabwe to see what kind of surgery facilities, equipment, and specialists were available.
Controlled ventilation is applied to patients intubated for general anesthesia. Additionally, positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and pressure support are mechanical ventilation modes that have been used in general anesthesia practice for many years. When the recovery-extubation phase is reached, intermittent bag-mask ventilation is usually used and the patient is allowed to breathe spontaneously and is extubated when an adequate respiratory level is reached. It has been shown in previous studies that the use of intermittent mask ventilation causes postoperative atelectasis. Different methods have been used to prevent postoperative atelectasis. In our study, we aimed to observe the effect of terminating general anesthesia at the end of the operation and using PEEP and pressure-supported ventilation during the extubation phase on early complications.
