Filter by:The "Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI)" was established by the Edwards Lifescience Company (Irvine, California, USA) and is CE certified. As part of the Edwards Acumen Decision-Support-Software-Suite the HPI is supported by the minimal invasive FloTrac Sensor. The HPI displays the probability of an occurring hypotension. The software was established with the help of 20.000 analyzed patient events. If the upper limit of the HPI is reached, the software is alarming the treating physician 8. At the university hospital of Giessen HPI analyses are used in the daily clinical routine as well as for scientific purposes. Preliminary data of the HPI-I-Trial ("Influence of the Hypotension Prediction Index on the number and duration of intraoperative hypotension in primary hip-endoprothetic replacement", University Hospital of Giessen) included patients, which underwent hip-endoprothetic replacement surgery and revealed that the use of HPI with a goal directed therapy (GDT) protocol compared to standard care significantly reduced the incidence and duration of intraoperative hypotension. Therefore HPI with GDT might reduce the incidence of hypotension related complications in a sicker patient cohort. The aim of the study is to investigate whether a goal directed treatment according to the Hypotension Prediction Index compared to standard care can reduce the incidence of intraoperative hypotension in patients under single lung ventilation.
Preoperative fasting guidelines for anesthesia recommend waiting two hours after ingesting a clear liquid and six hours after ingesting a light meal. Due to the presence of pulp, orange juice is considered a light meal by current guidelines which means a patient must wait six hours before undergoing general anesthesia. This study will use ultrasound of stomach of healthy volunteers to determine if the presence of pulp actually increases the transit time for orange juice.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of task shifting from anesthesiologists to special trained nurses performing femoral nerve block (FNB) in patients with hip fracture in the emergency department (ED) at Vestfold Hospital Trust (VHT). A sample of nurses (n= 6) will perform ultrasound guided FNB in hip fracture patients (n=25) admitted to the ED at VHT. This cohort will be compared to another cohort of hip fracture patients (n=25). This cohort will follow standard of care where the femoral nerve block is often performed by anesthesiologists. The study is a prospective, controlled randomized trial.
This is a single-center, open-label, randomized, two-stage, two-way crossover study evaluating the effect of voriconazole on the PK, PD, and safety of HSK3486 in healthy subjects.
Recently, left paratracheal pressure was introduced as an alternative method to prevent pulmonary aspiration instead of cricoid pressure. Criocoid pressure is known to worsen glottic visibility when using Pentax.However, the effects of left paratracheal pressure on glottic view when using Pentax are not studied yet. In this study, the subjects are divided into two groups (group I: left paratracheal pressure applied before intubation, group II: conventional cricoid pressure applied before intubation). Investigators will assess the glottic view during intubation using Pentax.
This study evaluates the analgesic effects of pectoralis nerve block (PECS II) and erector spinae plane block (ESP) in patients having segmental mastectomy and sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB). Each one-third of patients will have ESP block and pectoralis nerve block (PECS II) 30 min before general anesthesia , while other one-third of patients will have only general anesthesia.
MET-REPAIR CONVAL is an international cohort study to examine the ability of self-reported exercise capacity to predict perioperative cardiovascular events correcting for preoperative risk factors.
This study is designed as a single-center, prospective observational, non-controlled, non-interventional study with an investigation period lasting for one day (during one bronchoscopy procedure). The study will take place in Denmark. The study will include minimum 15 and maximum 20 adult patients planned for a diagnostic flexible bronchoscopy procedure in general anaesthesia using a laryngeal mask. The involved site will include subjects during a one month period, October 2019. The intention is to perform a quality assessment of the AuraOnce. Subjects will not be asked to participate in this study as it is a quality study where the AuraOnce is used within its intended use and according to normal clinical procedure.
Opioid-free anesthesia (ATO) is a multimodal anaesthesia combining different analgesic and anesthetic modalities thus excluding opiates as an intraoperative. Recent studies have found a benefit from the ATO on postoperative rehabilitation and reduced length of hospitalization. Periarticular infiltration with a local anesthetic is one of the measures proposed in OFA during the PTH. PTH remains a painful procedure and the occurrence of morphinic-related side effects in sometimes elderly patients is often observed. The main objective of this study is to assess the feasibility of ATO in anterior hip replacement under general anesthesia with the primary endpoint of morphine consumption measured 24 hours after surgery.
Processed electroencephalogram (EEG) monitors are routinely used in addition to clinical parameters to assess the depth of anaesthesia during general anaesthesia.
