Filter by:Rates of major complications and mortality in the first weeks after surgery remain very high: postoperative mortality is still around 2% in central Europe and the United States. Postoperative deaths are a consequence of postoperative complications. Postoperative complications that are most strongly associated with postoperative death include acute kidney injury and acute myocardial injury. To avoid postoperative complications it is thus crucial to identify and address modifiable risk factors for complications. One of these modifiable risk factors may be intraoperative hypotension. Intraoperative hypotension is associated with major postoperative complications including acute kidney injury, acute myocardial injury, and death. It remains unknown which blood pressure value should be targeted in the individual patient during surgery to avoid physiologically important intraoperative hypotension. In current clinical practice, an absolute mean arterial pressure threshold of 65mmHg is used as a lower "one-size-fits-all" intervention threshold. This "population harm threshold" is based on the results of retrospective studies. However, using this population harm threshold for all patients ignores the obvious fact that blood pressure varies considerably among individuals. In contrast to current "one-size-fits-all" perioperative blood pressure management, the investigators propose the concept of personalized perioperative blood pressure management. Specifically, the investigators propose to test the hypothesis that personalized perioperative blood pressure management reduces the incidence of a composite outcome of acute kidney injury, acute myocardial injury, non-fatal cardiac arrest, and death within 7 days after surgery compared to routine blood pressure management in high-risk patients having major abdominal surgery. The investigators will perform preoperative automated blood pressure monitoring for one night to define individual intraoperative blood pressure targets. Automated blood pressure monitoring is the clinical reference method to assess blood pressure profiles. The mission of the trial is to reduce postoperative morbidity and mortality after major surgery. The vision is to achieve this improvement in patient outcome by using the innovative concept of personalized perioperative blood pressure management. This trial is expected to change and improve current clinical practice and will have a direct impact on perioperative blood pressure management guidelines.
Randomized controlled clinical Trial to compare the efficacy and duration of postoperative analgesia achieved after adding dexmedetomidine or dexamethasone to bupivacaine in TAP block for lower open abdominal surgeries.
This randomised clinical trial evaluates the analgesia provided by an iPack block associated with an adductor canal block in patients who undergo anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery, compared to an adductor canal block alone. The objective is to prove the superiority of this locoregional anesthesia in terms of analgesia and functional rehabilitation.
The COVERT Collaborative is led by a group of academic surgeons that is looking into the impact of the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic on Trauma and Orthopaedic practice. This will involve both trauma and elective procedures, as well as mortality rates, operative and anaesthetic case mix. The information will help to shape service reconfiguration and enhance patient-specific treatment especially in the threat of potential subsequent waves and future pandemics.
Pediatric Validation of CONOX Monitoring device (qCON and qNOX indices) for anesthesia depth during surgery
Teleconsultation (TLC) being a new method of anesthesia consultation, deployed as an emergency in healthcare facilities in the Covid context, it has never been evaluated either in terms of feasibility or in terms of quality. An initial assessment will highlight the pitfalls and difficulties encountered and suggest areas for improvement.
the investigators purpose is to predict hypotensive condition that can develop after general anesthesia induction by measuring the Tricuspid Annular Plane Systolic Movement (TAPSE), which is an echocardiographic parameter.
Anaesthesia or sedation for dental surgery is Challenging. Over-sedation, leading to upper airway obstruction, desaturation and apnoea, is very common. On the other hand, it is also very common that inadequate sedative drugs were given, leading to under-sedation with unsatisfactory experience during operation. Therefore, it is good if some other methods are provided for sedation, avoiding side effects associated with sedative drugs.
The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of Just-In-Time (J-I-T) Rapid Cycle Deliberate Practice (RCDP) Simulation Training on laryngoscopy competency among novice pediatric anesthesia trainees.
The purpose of this study is to compare 50mcg to 150mcg morphine in epidural for the goal of decreasing side effects of medication with lower dose in patients who receive a QL block
