Filter by:Psychological distress is a significant problem for healthcare professionals and students in training. The investigator question the prevalence of this problem in French residents in anaesthesia and intensive care training.
The aims of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of tragus pressure application in predicting or facilitating recovery from general anaesthesia, and compare the reliability of tragus pressure guided recovery/ emergence from anaesthesia to conventional modes of recovery
Intraoperative lung protective ventilation strategies using standardized tidal volumes based on predicted body weight have proven beneficial, but attempts to standardize positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) settings have not robustly accounted for body habitus or dynamic surgical conditions. Laparoscopic abdominal surgery in Trendelenburg (head-down) is an increasingly common surgical modality that presents a unique physiological challenge to the pulmonary system. In order to delineate the impact of body habitus, pneumoperitoneum, and surgical positioning on intraoperative pulmonary mechanics we conducted an observational study of patients undergoing robotic assisted laparoscopic abdominal surgery in Trendelenburg position. Using esophageal manometry, we partitioned the mechanical properties of the respiratory system into its lung and chest wall components and evaluated the effects of pneumoperitoneum, surgical position, and body mass index (BMI) on transpulmonary pressures, airway and transpulmonary driving pressures, and lung elastance. We hypothesized that increasing BMI would be associated with evidence of increasing atelectasis, increased driving pressures, and elevated lung elastance and that these changes would be exacerbated by pneumoperitoneum and Trendelenburg positioning.
Crosssectional study to analyse the genetic influence on levels of cardiac biomarkers (BNP, NT-proBNP).
Total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) and inhalation anesthesia are two anesthesia methods that can be preferred for the maintenance of anesthesia. Sevoflurane and propofol are drugs used frequently in these methods. This study aims to investigate and compare the effects of inhalation anesthesia using sevoflurane and TIVA using propofol on oxidative stress in patients undergoing controlled hypotensive anesthesia.
Effective analgesia is very important in terms of preventing respiratory, thromboembolic complications and providing early mobilization after open thoracotomy. Although thoracic epidural analgesia is gold standart method for this aim, it causes common side effects such as hypotension, dural puncture,motor block In recent years, with the effective use of ultrasonography, different regional anesthesia methods have been developed to prevent such complications
This is a single-center, open-label, randomized, two-stage, two-way crossover Phase I study in healthy male subjects.The main objective is to evaluate the differences in pharmadynamics (PD), pharmacokinetics (PK), and safety between ciprofol injectable emulsion and propofol injectable emulsion at different doses in healthy subjects.
Caudal blockade (CB) is one of the most frequently performed regional anaesthetic techniques in children. It's an efficient way to offer perioperative analgesia for painful sub-umbilical interventions but with high incidence of motor block and urinary retention. In one study, psoas compartment block was associated with less morphine comsumption and prolonged duration of analgesia compared to single-shot caudal Block in small children undergoing open hip reduction/osteotomies. Ultasound guided anterior Quadratus lumborum block (AQLB) provides unilateral analgesia to the nerves between the psoas muscle (PM) and the quadratus lumborum muscle (QLM). The first pediatric study evaluating Quadratus lumborum block is encouraging . The first pediatric study evaluating Quadratus lumborum block is encouraging. To the best of the investigator's knowledge, there are no previously published data comparing the AQLB with other regional techniques in infants undergoing hip surgery.
The number of elderly patients above 80 years is increasing and a large proportion of these patients will require surgery and anesthesia. During anesthesia neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBA) are administered to facilitate intubating conditions and reduce the trauma to the larynx and vocal cords. There is a risk of residual neuromuscular block when using NMBAs like rocuronium. Remifentanil is a fentanyl analogue commonly used for induction since it also facilitates intubation. There is no risk of residual neuromuscular block, nonetheless circulatory side effects have been seen. It is unknown which is superior concerning intubating conditions in elderly patients. Therefore, the aim of this study is to determine the effect on intubating conditions and laryngeal morbidity after either rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg or remifentanil 2 µg/kg in patients with age ≥ 80 years. The hypothesis of this study is that rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg provides a higher proportion with excellent intubating conditions compared to remifentanil 2 µg/kg.
The purpose of this study is to determine if an I-gel laryngeal mask airway (LMA) has a higher oropharyngeal leak pressure compared to an Ambu Auragain in adult patients in an ambulatory surgery center.
