Filter by:General anesthesia during pregnancy is associated with several major risks including unanticipated difficult airway, pulmonary aspiration, and specific anesthetic effects on the newborn. Thus, intrathecal anesthesia is the technique of choice for cesarean section. Nevertheless, the main side effect of intrathecal anesthesia is arterial hypotension which depend mainly on the dose of local anesthetic administered intrathecally. To date there is no guidelines nor evidences whic help the anesthetist to precisely estimate the required dose. Most often a "standardized dose" of 8 to 10 mg of bupivacaine is administered. However, some data suggest that a lower dose may be administered resulting in less frequent arterial hypotension. Nevertheless, a well designed randomized study is lacking.
Supraclavicular brachial plexus block (SCBPB) is the common approach to provide surgical anesthesia of upper limb. The effects of single-injection brachial plexus nerve blocks recede after several hours unmasking the moderate to- severe pain of the surgical insult.
A prospective randomized controlled double-blinded study will be conducted on 90 patients assigned randomly into three equal groups,
Since the onset of COVID-19, recommendations suggest the use of neuraxial anesthesia, if possible, over general anesthesia for cesarian section to avoid the risks of aerosolization associated with tracheal intubation and extubation. But the safety of performing spinal anesthesia is unclear especially for post spinal hypotension, during the presence of active infection with COVID-19. Since at the beginning of the pandemic a few studies reported significant hypotension during epidural anesthesia in COVID-19 pregnant women, there was a controversial discussion about the safety of regional anesthesia was started. In this study we aimed to find if spinal anesthesia is safely recommended anesthesia type for COVID-19 obstetric patients. 249 patients with PCR confirmed COVID-19 for cesarean section undergoing spinal anesthesia in Ankara City Hospital, Ankara assessed in this retrospective study to find if the hypotension is the risk factor for the COVID-19 patients.
This a single-center prospective spread-evaluation study where the primary objective is to assess the spread of local anesthesia in an ESPB using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The investigators will include 10 healthy volunteers from the hospitals internal website. All volunteers will receive a one-sided Erector Spinae Plane (ESP) block. 30 min after the block sensitivity to cold and pinprick will be assessed before an MRI is performed after 60 min postblock. An radiology specialist will evaluate the MR images pertaining to the spread of the local anesthesia.
- This is a prospective randomized clinical study that will be carried on adult patients aged from 21-60 years and presented for strabismus surgery under peribulbar anesthesia. - Patients will be excluded if they refused to participate or had a contraindication to peribulbar anesthesia. - Patients will be randomly distributed into either control group in which peribulbar anesthesia will be performed by injection of 10 ml local anesthetic mixture composed of 4 ml of plain bupivacaine 0.5%, 4 ml of lidocaine 2% containing 50 IU, and 2 ml normal saline or rocuronium group which peribulbar anesthesia will be performed by injection of 10 ml local anesthetic mixture composed of 4 ml of plain bupivacaine 0.5%, 4 ml of lidocaine 2% containing 50 IU, and 0.06 mg/kg of rocuronium in 2 ml normal saline. - Measurements will include; - 1. Patient age, weight, height, gestational age, and gravidity. 2. The duration of globe akinesia (primary outcome). 3. The onset of lid and globe akinesia and the duration of lid akinesia 4. The onset and duration of sensory block 5. Time required to start the surgery 6. Akinesia score 7. The visual analog score (VAS) which is composed of 0-10 score will be used to assess the severity of postoperative pain (where 0=no pain and 10=severe pain), The VAS score will be evaluated 1 h, 2 h postoperative, then every 2 h till 12 h. Any patients with VAS score more than 4 received rescue analgesia in the form of 50 mg tramadol intravenous injection with the calculation of the time for the first call of postoperative analgesia. 8. Any detected complication as nausea and vomiting, pain on injection, or increased intraocular tension.
Minimally Invasive Thoracic Surgery (MITS) is a surgical method used to perform lung surgery through small incisions between the ribs and includes both Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery (VATS) and Robotic assisted Thoracic Surgery (RATS). MITS can cause a significant amount of postoperative pain and if this is not adequately controlled, it can delay the patient's recovery and it may be a precipitating factor for the development of Chronic Persistent Surgical Pain (CPSP). Regional anaesthesia is the use of nerve numbing medications known as local anaesthetics to block sensations of pain from a specific area of the body. For MITS, blocking pain arising from the chest wall/rib cage would improve the patient's recovery after the operation and overall patient satisfaction. There have been significant advancements made in thoracic (chest wall) regional anaesthesia techniques. Ultimately, this involves injecting local anaesthetics around the nerves that supply the chest wall. A single injection of these medications will only have a maximum effect for up to 12 hours and often this is considerably less. To prolong the pain free benefit, a thin tube known as a catheter will be placed so that the local anaesthesia medication can be continuously given by a specific mechanical pump designed for this purpose. This mechanical pump will be located at the patient's bedside and can precisely deliver the medication in question at a rate between 10-15 ml/hr. This infusion of local anaesthesia medication will continue for 48 hours after the operation and will be monitored by the hospital's pain team. The primary aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of two techniques for thoracic regional anaesthesia after this type of surgery. Participants will be randomly assigned (like tossing a coin) to receive either an Anaesthesiologist ultrasound guided Erector Spinae Plane Block (ESP) with catheter insertion or surgeon video-assisted Paravertebral block (PVB) with catheter insertion. Both these regional anaesthesia techniques are well established in clinical practice, but there is little evidence published comparing them for this type of surgery, in terms of quality of patient's short term (1-2 days) and longer-term (3 months) recovery.
Current healthcare delivery models emphasize enhanced postoperative recovery (ERAS) with minimal morbidity and shorter hospital stays. Most tracheostomy cases are tumour patients. The more the patients have difficulty in breathing, the more difficult it is to anaesthetize them. Adequate intraoperative anaesthesia and postoperative analgesia with minimal sedation play an essential role in this patient model. In tracheostomy patients, moving away from the general anaesthesia option increases airway safety, and avoiding the local anaesthesia option in the incision area increases patient comfort. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of regional anaesthesia in tracheostomy patients.
