Filter by:The investigators want to explore how presenting acoustic stimuli influences brain oscillatory signatures and heart rhythm- dynamics across different vigilance and sedation states. The investigators will administer acoustic stimuli during sedation and anaesthesia while brain activity and heart activity are being recorded by electroencephalogram and electrocardiogram. On the day following anaesthesia an optional nap/sleep period's EEG and ECG will be recorded. During this short sleep, patients will again be exposed to acoustic stimuli. The recorded EEG and ECG will be compared intra-and inter-individually to recordings from sedation and anaesthesia.
Robotic arthroplasty is increasing in acceptance on a global scale as a result of advancements in orthopedic surgery technology. The investigators aimed to share their anesthesia management experience as well as compare robotic unilateral total hip arthroplasty with conventional surgical technique in this retrospective study.
Patient perceived quality of recovery is an important outcome after surgery and should be measured in clinical trials. The QoR-15 was designed to measure quality of recovery postoperatively. It provided an efficient evaluation of the postoperative quality of recovery. The primary objectives of this study is validate the Turkish version of QoR-15 questionnaire for emergency laparotomy. The investigators will test its validity, reliability, responsiveness, and clinical acceptability and feasibility, with patients emergency laparotomy, in the University of Health Sciences, Gülhane Education and Training Hospital Ankara, Türkiye.
Robotic arthroplasty is increasing in acceptance on a global scale as a result of advancements in orthopedic surgery technology. The investigators aimed to share our anesthesia management experience as well as compare robotic unilateral total knee arthroplasty with conventional surgical technique in this retrospective study.
The purpose of this observational study is to evaluate patients who are planning to administer sugammadex after rocuronium or vecuronium is used. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Prescription pattern of sugammadex 2. Effectiveness and safety of sugammadex Since this study is observational, only data generated under daily treatment are to be collected, and no additional tests or drug administration is conducted for the study. The patients are observed from baseline to 24 hours after the initial administration of sugammadex.
Parental presence during induction for young infants is still debated. There is a paucity of information on the real-world interaction between parents, infant and the anesthesia team. Aim To investigate parents' anxiety, need of information and experiences during induction of their infant, as well as staff communication and experiences, using quantitative and qualitative methods. Methods Randomized controlled trial of parent´s experiences of participating in their infant´s anesthesia induction. Parents will be randomized to being present in the operating room until the infant is asleep due to anesthesia induction (intervention group), or leaving their child to the anesthesia team in the OR holding area (control group).
The aim of this study is to verify the feasibility of an evaluation of the depth of analgesia during an opioid sparing anesthesia (OSA) carried out with continuous infusion of dexmedetomidine in addition to general multimodal anesthesia trough an instrumental pupillary evaluation.
- To compare the effect (heart rate and mean arterial pressure) of Ringer Lactate preloading and without preloading on induction dose requirement of Propofol. - The Propofol requirement for induction dose with respect to loss of eyelash reflex in Ringer Lactate preloaded versus control group.
Arthroscopic shoulder surgery is increasingly performed in an outpatient setting and post-operative pain management is often a real challenge as those surgeries are well recognized for their high level of pain which often affects physical rehabilitation. The interscalene block is a largely used anesthetic technique to perform these surgeries whilst avoiding general anesthesia (GA) and to provide postoperative analgesia. However, the painful period often exceeds the duration of a single shot block, thus affecting patient recovery. Some specialized centers use a continuous catheter and elastomeric pump in order to prolong the duration of analgesia. However, several logistical, professional and financial constraints limit the use of these catheters and pumps in a great number of outpatient centers. On the other hand, perineural dexmedetomidine is increasingly used as an adjuvant to improve block onset, analgesia duration and patient satisfaction. The use of adjuvants such as perineural dexmedetomidine added to a single shot interscalene block appears to be an interesting option to prolong postoperative analgesia without the limitations imposed by a continuous catheter and elastomeric pumps in arthroscopic shoulder surgeries.
Informed consent in pediatric anesthesia is obtained from the caregiver by the anesthesiologist prior to surgery. Studies demonstrate that caregivers often do not fully understand or recall the information (risks and benefits) discussed with them during the consent process. The use of visual aids (pictographs etc.) in the consent process has been studied and found beneficial in increasing recall of the discussion about surgery (appendectomy) and for sedation in the emergency department. The investigators developed posters/pamphlets as visual aids with information about general anesthesia and risks involved to help the caregivers understand the process and risks better when their child comes in for an elective procedure. This randomized controlled trial comparing the recall and satisfaction of the standard consent process with and without the use of the visual aids will help evaluate whether the consent process and caregiver understanding can be improved by using these aids.
