Filter by:Prospective, randomized and controlled who will be conducted in Maisonneuve-Rosemont hospital and whose objectives are: - To observe if the alterations of the NoL index and the standard monitoring (Mean Arterial Blood Pressure and Heart Rate) (using the variability of NoL index and standard monitoring, peak NoL index and peak standard monitoring values, and number of time passed over their respective threshold for nociceptive response) are more accentuated after laryngoscopy using the classical MAC blade versus single-use disposable blade of the Glidescope. - To observe the nociceptive response (using the variability of NoL index and standard monitoring, peak NoL index and peak standard monitoring values, and number of time passed over their respective threshold for nociceptive response) related to the insertion of endotracheal tube between vocal cords during the intubation. Study plans to enroll 50 adult patients scheduled to undergo either general, gynecological, neurological, orthopedic, plastic or urological surgery under general anesthesia and who necessitate endotracheal intubation.
The aim of this study will be to show a decrease in postoperative morphine consumption by the practice of perioperative self-hypnosis in patients undergoing laparoscopic ileo-caecal resection for Crohn's disease
The aim of this randomized controlled trial. is to test the efficacy of topical anesthesia against the use of no topical agent during buccal infiltration in maxillary anterior teeth. The rationale behind this comparison is to evaluate the practical, clinical outcome of not using any topical agent if in fact topical anesthesia does not reduce pain as reported by various studies and if consequently its usage was to be discontinued.
Hypothesis: A combination of midazolam with dexmedetomidine for sedation during third molar surgery will provide 1) superior patient satisfaction, 2) superior operator satisfaction and 3) no significant hemodynamic or respiratory changes when compared to a sedation combination of midazolam, fentanyl and propofol for sedation during third molar surgery.
In this study, the Supreme and ProSeal LMAs in infants were compared by measuring their performance characteristics, including insertion features, ventilation parameters, induced changes in hemodynamics and rates of postoperative complications.
In this double blinded randomized controlled study, the pupillary dilation reflex is used for as a nociceptive indicator for opioid administration during elective surgery under general anesthesia.
We study the outcome and prequesties of emergency surgeries that were necessary following accidents in the pediatric cardiac catheterization lab
In paediatric anaesthesia, use of cuffed endotracheal (ET) tubes is subject to much debate. The concern is the possibility of damage to tracheal mucosa by excessive pressure from the cuff. The cuff pressure can increase during anaesthesia, especially if nitrous oxide is used. Using saline to inflate the cuff has been shown to reduce intra-operative cuff pressure variation in adult studies, although it is not standard practice. Although the literature contains reports of cuff pressure increases during paediatric anaesthesia, there are no reports of attempts to address this. Use of pressure monitoring is recommended by AAGBI, but may not be consistently done. A safe method of limiting pressure, that is effective, imposes minimal extra workload and has minimal cost, would reduce risk to patients. This study aims to investigate the effect on intra-operative cuff pressure of using saline to inflate the ET tube cuff, compared to standard practice of air inflation. Continuous pressure monitoring will be used to determine the proportion of cases where interventions are required to keep the pressure below a safe maximum level.
This study examines whether the injection of local anesthesia mixed with sodium bicarbonate in the ratio of 3:1 creates a less burning sensation and is as effective regarding the anesthetic effect as in the ratio of 9:1.
We assessed the visibility of peripheral nerves while ultrasound guided blockades with a novel scoring system to evaluate differences in visibility of different nerves.
