Filter by:The aim of this study was to perform a cross-cultural adaptation and psychometric evaluation of the Quality of Recovery 15 questionnaire in Turkey.
The study of the microcirculation and glycocalyx could be an essential element in the monitoring of our patients undergoing major abdominal surgery. It would enable us to better target the objectives of anaesthesia and resuscitation, which until now have been based essentially on macro-circulatory parameters.
The aim of this study is to compare the effect of preoperative carbohydrate load versus the fasting protocol in patients undergoing major abdominal operations.
This study is the first clinical trial study in Indonesia to assess the benefits of using incentive spirometry in the incidence of pulmonary complications after major abdominal surgery. This study was a randomized clinical trial in three tertiary-level referral hospitals in Indonesia (Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, Fatmawati Hospital, and Persahabatan Hospital). The investigators randomly assigned adult patients who underwent major abdominal elective surgery in July-August 2015 to two groups. All study subjects were simple randomly allocated to the intervention and control groups according to the randomization table. The hypothesis of the study team was that preoperative incentive spirometry can improve the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications in major abdominal surgery
The objective of this study is to investigate the hemodynamic effects of two strategies of alveolar recruitment maneuver in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery in the operating room
Hemodynamic instability is frequent during surgery and intraoperative hypotension is associated with excess morbidity and excess mortality in high-risk patients. In major abdominal surgery the incidence of intraoperative hypotension remains high. For the past few years, some teams have proposed evaluating norepinephrine as a first-line drug in the presence of hypotension or even before hypotension occurs Thus in obstetrics, the preventive use of norepinephrine for cesareans performed under spinal anesthesia was associated with a reduction in the incidence of hypotension per operative without deleterious effect for the newborn or parturient. In the absence of any observed complications, several teams began to use noradrenaline prophylactically in other surgery. However, no study has demonstrated its benefit, particularly the term of surgical complication in abdominal surgery. The objective of this work is to assess the preventive use of norepinephrine in major abdominal surgery on the occurrence of intraoperative hypotension, postoperative organ dysfunction and postoperative medical and surgical complications.
The opioid crisis is a growing problem around the world, with prescription opioids being a major contributor to this crisis. They can be prescribed in different chronic and acute settings, such as surgery. This is therefore an event which may mark a first exposure to opioids in many opioid-naive patients and be associated with subsequent long-term use. This long-term persistent opioid consumption (POC) after surgery may be due, among other things, to chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP). Many risk factors have been identified in the development of chronic pain. Some are related to the surgery while others are related to patient characteristics. Of these, preoperative opioid use, pre-existing pain, and psychological history are major factors that increase the risk of POC or CPSP. The population having undergone major abdominal surgery remains poorly represented in studies of postoperative POC. It can be reasonable to think that these patients may have a similar high risk of CPSP and POC as other surgical patients. The potential harmful effects of POC and CPSP may limit the recovery of these patients and impair their quality of life (QoL). The risk factors for CPSP are important to consider when considering POC. While psychological factors related to pain have been shown to be associated with postoperative pain and analgesic use, the association between unrelieved postoperative pain and POC may have been underestimated. Regional anesthesia is frequently used in major abdominal surgery to reduce the risk of acute and chronic postoperative pain. However, data regarding CPSP specifically after major abdominal surgery are lacking, and the role of neuraxial analgesia on its prevention and on postoperative opioid use is unclear. Since little is known about the prevalence of POC after major abdominal surgery and its determinants, the investigators propose to conduct a major abdominal surgery cohort study by examining POC and CPSP using information reported by patients.
In this study, the investigators propose to explore the hemodynamic variations induced by vasopressin and its influence on cardiac output, mean systemic pressure, and venous return resistance measured through cardiopulmonary interactions, according to the approach proposed by Guyton, in patients undergoing major abdominal surgeries.
Anesthetic management may affect both immunostimulatory and immunosuppressive mechanisms directly by modulating immune cell function or indirectly by attenuating the stress response, Thus, the choice of anesthetic technique may affect clinical outcomes by perturbing the balance between pro- and anti-inflammatory responses,anesthetics favoring this delicate balance are thus desirable as their use may reduce postoperative complications and mortality
This study evaluates the effect of lavender aromatherapy and cold application on pain during drain removal. The investigators hypothesize that there is no difference in pain prevention between lavender oil inhalation and local cold application.
