Filter by:QTc prolongation and premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) are common in hemodialysis (HD) patients and are associated with sudden cardiac death. It is known that higher dialysate bicarbonate is associated with more QTc prolongation during HD sessions. This study aims to assess the effects of lower (30 mEq/L) versus higher (35 mEq/L) dialysate bicarbonate in adult maintenance HD patients admitted to the hospital. The investigators will randomly assign subjects to lower versus higher dialysate bicarbonate concentrations during their hospital stay for up to a maximum of six HD sessions or until their hospital discharge.
Measurement of Whole Blood Lactate Concentrations Whole blood lactate concentrations will be measured at the time of study enrollment and at 24, 48, and 72 hours. Measurement of Plasma Renin Concentrations Serum renin concentration will be measured on blood samples drawn from arterial catheters on supine position right after inclusion. Discarded whole blood samples (waste blood samples) in EDTA tubes are prospectively collected from each patient at the time of study enrollment and at 24, 48, and 72 hours.
The purpose of this study is to access the safety of etomidate - propofol mixture vs propofol in total intravenous anesthesia during abdominal surgery.
Intraoperative hypotension is closely related to the poor prognosis of surgery. The study is focused on the effectiveness of maintaining normal peripheral perfusion index (PPI) on time-weighted average of hypotension during anesthesia.
The investigators aimed to investigate the deep learning model to predict intraoperative hypotension using non-invasive monitoring parameters.
We include patient who will undergo elective surgeries such as orthopedic surgeries as fixator placement, lower extremity debridement, inguinal hernia, Urosurgery as bladder- prostate resection, hysterectomy, fibroid removal, ovarian cyct removal, plastic surgeries, and other types of surgery. The fasting durations of the included patients will be 8 hours for solids and 2 hours for clear liquids. There won't be any premedication given. The patient will be placed in a supine, neutral-head resting posture in the operating room as well as standard monitors such as a five-lead electrocardiography, pulse oximeter, and noninvasive blood pressure. An attending anesthesiologist will use a 25-gauge Quincke spinal needle to induce spinal anesthesia in the L3/4 or L4/5 vertebral interspace with the patient in the right lateral decubitus posture. Throughout the course of the trial, the attending anesthesiologist will choose the dosages of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine (10 to 15 mg) and fentanyl (10 to 20 mg) 28. The patient will be placed back in the supine position without any lateral tilt once the spinal injection has been given over a period of 15 to 30 seconds. Three minutes following the spinal injection, the sensory block will be evaluated with a cold and pinprick test. The mean blood pressure will be taken every 3 minutes between the spinal injection and delivery, and every 5 minutes from the delivery until the end of the procedure. The lowest SBP measured between the spinal anesthesia injection and delivery will be determined, together with the percentage of the SBP drop from the pre-anesthetic SBP. The patient's head will be turned 308 degrees to the left. First, a 6.0 to 13.0MHz linear array transducer will be positioned vertically on the neck with the probe marker facing the patient's head. The lower edge of the thyroid cartilage will provide a long-axis B-mode picture of the right common carotid artery. The probe will then be positioned in the lumen's center, around 2 cm from where the carotid arteries split. After that, carotid artery blood flow waveforms will be preserved together with a pulsed Wave-Doppler trace of the artery's flow. The cycle time will be determined by counting the number of heartbeats at the start of the systolic upstroke using an ultrasound machine's caliper function. By taking measurements in one-tenth of millisecond intervals between the systolic upstroke and the diastolic notch, the flow time will be determined. the IVC will be scanned using a portable ultrasound device (LOGIQ-e by GE health care) and a 3.5-5 MHz curvilinear probe in the subxiphoid region (paramedian long-axis view), just close to the common hepatic vein's draining to the IVC. At the point where the IVC joins the right atrium, a 2D picture will be obtained. M-mode imaging will be used to record changes in IVC diameter during inspiration and expiration. The procedure is carried out two to three centimeters away from the right atrium/IVC junction. The attending anesthetist will keep track of how long it took to locate the IVC after placing the probe on the patient. The M mode of the ultrasonography will be used to measure the IVC's Minimum (IVCDMin) and Maximum (IVCDMax) diameters, and the IVC Collapsibility Index (IVCCI) will be calculated.
The aim of the current study is to evaluate the effects of the Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) on the degree of intraoperative hypotension in patients undergoing free flap surgery. The hypothesis is that implementation of the HPI algorithm will reduce the time-weighted average (TWA) intraoperative hypotension below a threshold of 65 mmHg (16), and to reveal the relationship between the episodes of hypotension and free flap viability and function.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation on blood pressure in individuals with an acute spinal cord injury (within 30 days of injury). Blood pressure instability, specifically orthostatic hypotension (a drop in blood pressure when moving lying flat on your back to an upright position), appears early after the injury and often significantly interferes with participation in the critical rehabilitation time period. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Can optimal spinal stimulation increase blood pressure and resolve orthostatic symptoms (such as dizziness and nausea) when individuals undergo an orthostatic provocation (a sit-up test)? Optimal stimulation and sham stimulation (which is similar to a placebo treatment) will be compared. 2. What are the various spinal sites and stimulation parameters that can be used to increase and stabilize blood pressure to the normal range of 110-120 mmHg? Participants will undergo orthostatic tests (lying on a bed that starts out flat and then moved into an upright seated position by raising the head of bed by 90° and dropping the base of the bed by 90° from the knee) with optimal and sham stimulation, and their blood pressure measurements will be evaluated and compared.
This project will investigate the effect of spinal cord transcutaneous stimulation on blood pressure in individuals with a chronic spinal cord injury who experience blood pressure instability, specifically, orthostatic hypotension (a drop in blood pressure when moving from lying flat on your back to an upright position). The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What are the various spinal sites and stimulation parameters that normalize and stabilize blood pressure during an orthostatic provocation (70 degrees tilt)? 2. Does training, i.e., exposure to repeated stimulation sessions, have an effect on blood pressure stability? Participants will undergo orthostatic tests (lying on a table that starts out flat, then tilts upward up to 70 degrees), with and without stimulation, and changes in their blood pressure will be evaluated.
The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of stent implantation versus medical therapy on idiopathic intracranial hypertension with venous sinus stenosis.
