Summary Thoracic interfascial plane blocks are effective for post‐mastectomy acute analgesia. However, their effects on chronic pain uncertain. We randomly allocated 80 women equally to pectoral nerve‐2 (PECS 2) block or serratus block. The reduced the rate of moderate severe from 13/40 (33%) with 4/40 (10%), p = 0.03, adjusted odds ratio (95%CI) 0.23 (0.07–0.80), 0.02. rates pain‐free at six postoperative months were indeterminate, 10/40 (25%) after vs. 19/40 (48%) block, 0.06, 2.9...

Tranexamic acid (TXA) is widely used as an antifibrinolytic drug. However, studies to determine the optimal blood concentration of TXA have produced inconsistent results. During cardiac surgery, cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) has serious effects on drug distribution, elimination, and plasma concentration. Therefore, we aimed establish a population pharmacokinetics model in patients undergoing surgery with CPB that considers renal function covariate, thereby facilitating personalized treatment....

( Int J Obstet Anesth . 58;2024:103957. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijoa.2023.103957) Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is a significant obstetric emergency that accounts for ∼20% of maternal deaths globally. In cesarean deliveries (CD), PPH often described as blood loss >1000 mL, with reported rates ranging from 4.8% to 30%. High-risk pregnancies, like those advanced age, assisted reproductive technology, multiple or placenta accreta spectrum disorders, are major contributors the rising PPH....

Several types of quadratus lumborum block (QLB) are used for postoperative analgesia and believed to be effective against both somatic visceral pain via a local anesthetic (LA) effect in the paravertebral space (PVS). However, it remains unclear whether all QLB techniques result LA spread into PVS. We hypothesized that administered intramuscular would investigated sensory area QLB.This volunteer study included 5 healthy men 1 woman, with no previous medical history. Intramuscular lateral...

Background: Awake craniotomy is performed to resect brain tumors in eloquent areas maximize tumor reduction and minimize neurological damage. Evidence suggests that intraoperative anesthetic management of awake with remimazolam safe. We compared the time arousal efficacy propofol during craniotomy. Methods: In a single-institution randomized, prospective study, patients who underwent elective were randomized receive reversal flumazenil (group R) or P). The primary end point was awaken....

The incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) remains high, improving the accuracy PONV prediction challenging. primary aim this study is to examine impact anxiety scores evaluated using Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale (HADS) on model. We hypothesized that depression, quantified HADS, could improve predictive This pilot 100 patients. HADS was conducted by a self-evaluation method before thoracoscopic surgery for lung tumors, anesthesia standardized. criterion whether nurse in...

The current study was undertaken to investigate the effects of pretreatment with isoflurane and sevoflurane on development neurogenic pulmonary edema in an animal model.Rats were exposed room air (control), 1.5% isoflurane, or 2.5% for 4 h. They then anesthetized intraperitoneal injections pentobarbital sodium, fibrinogen thrombin injected into cisterna magna induce edema.Consecutive caused increases blood pressure, peak values obtained groups being lower than control values. incidence...

Background: The objective of this study was to determine whether pre‐operative heart rate variability (HRV) estimated using the newly developed MemCalc method predicts hypotension after spinal anaesthesia (SA). Method: Fifty‐two patients with American Society Anesthesiologists physical status I or II, aged 38–84 years, scheduled undergo elective transurethral surgery were investigated in study. Ultra short‐term entropy (UsEn) as a non‐linear index HRV before and SA method. then assigned two...

Spinal cord ischemic injury is the most devastating sequela of descending and thoracoabdominal aortic surgery. Motor-evoked potentials (MEPs) have been used to intraoperatively assess motor tract function, but it remains unclear whether MEP monitoring can decrease incidence postoperative deficits. Therefore, we reviewed multicenter medical records patients who had undergone repair (both open surgery endovascular repair) association with deficits.Patients included in study underwent or at 12...
