Filter by:Spinal anesthesia is the technique of choice in transurethral prostatectomy.However,one of the common complications of spinal anesthesia is shivering which is even exaggerated in patients undergoing transurethral prostatectomy.this high incidence is most probably caused by sympathetic block and use of large amount of irrigation fluid during surgery.There are two methods to reduce shivering.Previous studies showed that intrathecal fentanyl is an appropriate method to reduce shivering.Intrathecal dexamethasone could reduce shivering by regulating immune responses.
Our study is intended to compare optimal muscle tension management or conventional anesthetic management in laparoscopic cholecystectomy about surgical condition during the surgery and other conditions after surgery at POR.
to evaluate the difference between the tracheal intubation (TI) and rigid bronchoscopy (RB) under general anesthesia on patients with transbronchial cryobiopsy.
The balanced anesthesia process contains three main parts: the control of hypnosis, analgesia, and neuromuscular blockade. For the induction phase, the anesthesiologist performs protocols based on prior planning specific to each patient and usually performs these controls by monitoring the classic vital signs and other clinical signs for the maintenance phase. In a way, this professional is the controller in a control system that acts on the plant (the patient) through the infusion of hypnotic drugs, analgesics and neuromuscular blockers. In addition, the anesthesiologist estimates the state of consciousness, the level of analgesia and the level of neuromuscular blockage through other indirect measures, as well as a state observer. There are different techniques for direct monitoring of these three anesthesia variables (DoA, NMB and NoL), such as BIS and Narcotrend, but all have some disadvantages, especially when the anesthesia process combines different drugs. This work proposes a new way of evaluating DoA, NMB and NoL using data fusion techniques to combine classical clinical signs with advanced EEG monitoring techniques to provide a decision support system for the anesthesiologist.
Women who fulfil the inclusion criteria and who intended to regional anesthesia will be randomized into the epidural anesthesia arm or to the spinal-epidural anesthesia arm. Sonographic evaluation of the flow in the uterine artery, umbilical artery, and middle cerebral artery will be documented to each patient prior and following the regional anesthesia.
This study evaluates differences in how administering liposomal bupivacaine via two different methods affects postoperative pain control in laparoscopic abdominal surgery patients. Half the participants will receive liposomal bupivacaine via a transverses abdominis plane block while the other half will receive liposomal bupivacaine via local infiltration.
The level of preoperative anxiety can be related to the outcome of an operation and to the post operative patient management . The Dutch questionnaire APAIS (Amsterdam Preoperative Anxiety and Information Scale) is a useful tool to quantify this parameter, and it has been translated and validated by the University Federico II of Naples in the study "Italian validation of the Amsterdam Preoperative Anxiety and Information Scale". The study aims at identifying the correlation between the preoperative anxiety level measured by the APAIS in adult patients in general anesthesia undergoing elective major abdominal surgery and the levels of post-operative pain measured by the VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) and NRS (Numeric Rating Scale) scales. Post-operative pain and agitation in the patient can be lessened through the objective assessment of preoperative anxiety and its treatment.
This study aims to predict risk factors of acute postoperative pain of the patients undergoing Total Knee Replacement Arthroplasty(TKRA).
The numeric rating scale (NRS), one of the most widely used pain scales in clinical practice, although convenient, is often subject to bias because it requires abstract thinking from both the patient and the evaluator. Compared to numbers, traumatic pain, when visualized appropriately, has potential advantage as a means to indicate and communicate the severity of pain. Given that they are standardized in terms of body parts, wound size, and bleeding volume, illustrations of traumatic pain along with external somatic stimuli that caused it can be used to serve as effective visual anchors to supplement a pain scale by giving more concrete information to the patient. The purpose of this study is to develop Seoul National University Illustrated Pain Scale(SNUIPS) using pictures of traumatic pain, and verify the validity and effectiveness of this scale in comparison with those of NRS.
The erector spinae plane block is a novel regional anesthetic technique that allows for analgesia of the thorax and abdomen with a peripheral nerve block. This study is being performed to assess the effectiveness of this technique in reducing post-operative pain scores and opiate requirements in pediatric and adult patients undergoing rib cartilage grafting surgeries.
