Filter by:It is unclear whether routine addition of intra-operative forced-air warming in addition to warmed intravenous fluids during cesarean delivery under spinal anesthesia is beneficial. In this single-center randomized trial, we aim to test the primary null hypothesis that our current protocol of warmed intravenous fluids is similar to a combination of warmed intravenous fluids with intra-operative lower-body forced-air warming to maintain maternal temperature after cesarean delivery under spinal anesthesia. We also aim to assess the rate of maternal shivering during and after the procedure between the two groups, the maternal thermal comfort score, neonatal Apgar scores and umbilical pH levels. If we demonstrate no clinically important difference between the two interventions, clinicians will be able to continue our current protocol of warmed intravenous fluids only during cesarean delivery.
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of Ondansetron, Dexamethasone, and Placebo for intraoperative nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing caesarian section under spinal anesthesia. The main question it aims to answer are: Which drug is the best at reducing the incidence of intraoperative nausea and vomiting. Which drug is the best at reducing intraoperative pain. Participants will be randomly divided into three groups, each will be given a different drug labelled A, B, or C. A rating scale will be used to evaluate the severity of intraoperative nausea and pain. Episodes of vomiting will be recorded. Data collected from the three groups will be analyzed using SPSS software.
Urinary retention is defined as the inability to empty the bladder spontaneously even though the bladder is full. Although urinary retention is seen in two forms as acute and chronic, acute urinary retention is defined by the International Continence Society (ICS) as the situation where the patient is unable to urinate, the bladder is felt when palpated by hand, and the bladder content contains at least 150 ml of urine with pain. Chronic bladder retention is defined by ICS as a painless condition that can be felt when the bladder is palpated manually after urinating, with at least 150 ml of urine in the bladder content. aim:The aim of this study is to determine the Effect of Postoperative Local Dry Hot Application and Half Shower Application on the Development of Bladder Retention and Pain in Patients undergoing Spinal Anesthesia.
This study aims to compare the effectiveness of preoperative ultrasound-guided suprainguinal fascia iliaca compartment block (SFICB) and pericapsular nerve group block (PENG) in preventing positioning pain during spinal anesthesia in patients who are scheduled for surgery due to hip fracture.
Hip fracture is a common and serious healthcare problem which commonly affects elderly populations. The common route of anesthesia for hip arthroplasty is spinal anesthesia. Elderly populations are characterized by high incidence of post spinal anesthesia hypotension; furthermore, elderly patients commonly have systemic medical disorder; therefore, this population is highly vulnerable to perioperative hypotension. Moreover , intraoperative hypotension during hip surgery has been recently recognized as a major risk factor for postoperative morbidity and mortality. Through the effect of spinal anesthesia on sympathetic system Veno-dilatation, decreased venous return, and consequently decreased cardiac output and hypotension will be induced. Vasopressors are commonly used for prophylaxis against post spinal hypotension in different patient subgroups. The commonly used drugs are alpha-adrenoreceptor agonists such as ephedrine, phenylephrine, and recently norepinephrine. All these agents are effective in maintenance of blood pressure; however, they have some disadvantages; ephedrine is commonly associated with tachycardia, phenylephrine and norepinephrine are associated with bradycardia. All the former mentioned drugs are used intravenously. Midodrine hydrochloride is another alpha-adrenoreceptor agonist drug which is used for management of various hypotensive disorders. Midodrine is the prodrug which is metabolized to desglymidodrine which is a direct arteriolar and venous vasopressor. Midodrine is characterized by being an oral drug, with minimal central nervous system side effects, and good oral bioavailability. No studies had evaluated the efficacy of midodrine for prophylaxis against post-spinal anesthesia hypotension in elderly population. Aim of the work: This thesis aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral 5 mg of midodrine compared to placebo in prophylaxis against post-spinal hypotension in elderly patients undergoing hip arthroplasty
The management of postpartum pain is essential to ensure early rehabilitation for parturients. Intravenous dexamethasone has a potent analgesic action when used in the context of general anesthesia. Nevertheless, it remains poorly studied in combination with spinal anesthesia (SA). The aim of this study was to assess the analgesic effect of intravenous dexamethasone after caesarean section under SA. Methods: We conducted a prospective, randomized, double-blinded study including 84 ASA II-III parturient at term who were proposed for caesarean section under SA. Parturient were randomized into two groups: Dexamethasone group (DG) who received 8mg of intravenous dexamethasone (2ml) immediately after SA and placebo group (PG) who received 2ml of isotonic saline. The analgesic protocol was standardized and we opted for Tramadol as rescue analgesic. The main outcome is the use of Tramadol in the first 24 hours postpartum..
Subarachnoid anesthesia is an alternative and usually the first choice for many surgical procedures. It is a simple and safe procedure, however it can present complications such as hypotension and bradycardia. In this sense, ephedrine, an alpha and beta agonist agent, commonly used as rescue therapy for these events, is also potentially useful for prophylaxis of this unwanted effect and for less hemodynamic variation when preventively administered via the intramuscular route. Two groups will be divided: intramuscular ephedrine (0.5 mg/kg) and placebo. The variables analyzed and compared will be the incidence of hypotension and bradycardia, variation in mean and systolic blood pressure, heart rate, in addition to side effects. The main objective is to verify if the use of intramuscular ephedrine prior to spinal block is able to reduce the incidence of hypotension.
The purpose of the study is to compare the analgesic efficacy of femoral nerve block and peri-capsular nerve group block administered before spinal anesthesia for positioning to spinal anaesthesia in patients undergoing surgery for hip fracture and to evaluate the efficacy for postoperative analgesia
Nowadays, hundreds of information about regional anesthesia are accessed from any internet search engine when a question is written about the methods of anesthesia that can be applied during C/S. This information may have positive or negative effects on the patient, as well as include uncontrolled, unsupervised comments, articles and images. Our aim is primarily to evaluate whether our patients are exchanging information via social media or the internet and the effects of these shares on their concerns.
In our study, It was aimed to determine the dose of morphine that provides the most effective analgesia with the least incidence of side effects in the postoperative period.
