Filter by:With ethical approvement, the investigators want to assess the incidence, circumstances and outcomes of patients with perioperative cardiac arrests over a period of 8 years. Currently, there is little data and information about a cardiovascular arrests during anesthesia. Little is also known about the health-related quality of life afterwards. In the investigators research project, the investigators want to find out if there are, for example, specific factors that cause cardiovascular arrests and factors that can improve the chances of survival after a cardiovascular arrest. The investigators are also looking for possible factors and measurements that can minimize or even prevent future events during anesthesia.
congenital hearts are very sensitive and irritable to deal with, especially during repair defects, the child's heart is exposed to impaired myocardial function during the entire procedure. Moreover, reperfusion of the heart during open-heart surgery when the myocardium is exposed to a global ischaemic cardioplegic arrest can induce myocardial injury. Myocardial reperfusion injury activates neutrophils, which trigger an inflammatory response resulting in the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), cytokine release, and complement activation, which further induce more cardiac injury. In addition to the inflammatory response generated as a result of tissue reperfusion injury, there is a significant systemic inflammatory response that is triggered by cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) during open-heart surgery
The investigators hypothesize peripheral intravenous cannulation (insertion of tube into vein) will be facilitated (decreases the number of attempts) by a passive leg raise (raising the legs at the hip to 45 degree in a child laying on their back) in children.
Background and Aim: Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a neuromuscular disease characterized by progressive symmetrical weakness and atrophy of proximal muscles causing from degeneration of anterior horn cells of spinal cord. Nusinersen must be administered intrathecally and this treatment is specially for spinal muscular atrophy. Procedural sedation is commonly enough for intrathecal treatment in children. In this retrospective study, the investigators aimed to present our experience in procedural sedation for the intrathecal treatment of patients with SMA 1,2 and 3 in our hospital.
Induction and emergence from propofol can be a difficult process for patients and healthcare workers, and long recovery times in particular can limit the rate of care. A double-blinded randomized controlled trial with 220 patients undergoing elective colonoscopy or endoscopy is proposed to test the impact of perioperative music on patient experience and recovery from propofol anaesthesia. Patients will be assigned at random to hear either rhythmic auditory stimulation (music designed to drive neural oscillations) or spectrally-matched noise (sound that produces the same levels of activity at the cochlea but not expected to drive neural entrainment). Bone-conduction headphones will be administered in pre-operation waiting and will play music (or matched noise) until propofol administration ceases, at which time the music (or noise) will be switched: Pre- and post-operational music is designed to be sedative and stimulative, respectively, created with methods that drive auditory entrainment to promote those states. Outcome measures will be recovery time and the patient's subjective experience (taken via survey).
The proposed research in this application will investigate postoperative cognitive function, pain index, inflammatory response, and oxidative stress effects of propofol versus sevoflurane anesthetic drugs in patients undergoing elective, non-cardiac abdominal operations under general anesthesia to investigate which of them will significantly maintain better cognitive function, decrease the pain index, inflammatory reaction, and oxidative stress, improve outcome, shorten the postoperative recovery time and reduce length of hospital stay, and consequently the cost of hospital stay.
Radical cystectomy is the gold standard treatment for muscle invasive bladder cancer as well as some T1 and non-invasive disease. It is a major operation with significant perioperative morbidity and complications. Pain is one of the most important complications to be managed. Regional blocks as a part of multi-modal analgesia are considered main strategies of Enhanced Recovery after Surgery (ERAS) decreasing post-operative complications including post-operative pain and post-operative hospital stay. They also have an upper hand over systemic intravenous opioids decreasing the risk for post-operative delirium specially in old age patients. Thoracic paravertebral plane block (TPVPB), intra muscular quadratus lumborum plane block (QLPB) and erector spinae plane block (ESPB) are among these regional anesthesia techniques for pain management. Erector spinae plane block is an emerging block, with low risk and more feasibility, but efficacy hasn't been compared to quadratus lumborum and paravertebral plane blocks altogether in radical cystectomy surgeries. All these blocks are effective in reducing postoperative pain and the need of analgesia in radical cystectomy surgery; this is a comparative study between the three blocks in this population.
To analyze the effects of the use of Gastro-laryngeal Tube on intraoperative and postoperative hemodynamics, procedure comfort, and cardiologist and patient satisfactions during transesophageal echocardiography.
Infraclavicular block has taken its place in the literature as a proven technique in the anesthetic management of upper extremity surgeries. Compared to general anesthesia; The prominent advantages of regional anesthesia are that it provides longer perioperative pain control, reduces the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting, reduces opioid consumption and reduces the cost of hospitalization. The widespread use of ultrasonography (USG) in the last two decades has facilitated the application of the method and allowed the investigation of different injection methods. Regional blocks are planned according to the surgery to be performed. For anesthesia of arm, forearm and hand operations; brachial plexus can be blocked in the axillary, infraclavicular, supraclavicular or interscalene region. The infraclavicular technique, on the other hand, is roughly divided into three types: costoclavicular lateral, costoclavicular medial and paracoracoid (Lateral sagittal). The image obtained by placing the ultrasonography probe in the relevant anatomical region serves as a guide for the orientation of the peripheral block needle and performing the intervention by observing the vascular structures in the existing region provides a great advantage in terms of patient safety. In this study, we aimed to examine 3 different infraclavicular block methods; lateral costoclavicular, medial costoclavicular and lateral sagittal (Paracoracoid) approach, in terms of ease of application and motor/sensory block efficiency. Our hypothesis is that the sensory block will begin in a shorter time with costoclavicular methods compared to the lateral sagittal method. We are also planning to compare performance difficulties (needle maneuver numbers, subjective block exertion, block performance time etc.) for each type of intervention.
The aim of work to assess the effect of different doses of Dexmedetomidine when used as an adjuvant to entropy-guided general anesthesia on the intraoperative surgical field quality, inhaled anesthesia consumption and postoperative analgesia requirement during FESS surgeries.
