Why was this consensus statement developed? Advances in clinical practice are sometimes inhibited by a multitude of different options that need to be selected. There has been significant variation the treatment spinal anaesthesia-induced hypotension. These guidelines designed provide clinicians with specific best-practice plans will cover wide range drug and equipment availability. Detailed recommendations provided for management hypotension resource-rich resource-poor environments. How does...
It is routine to give a uterotonic drug following delivery of the neonate during caesarean section. However, there much heterogeneity in relevant research, which has largely been performed low-risk elective cases or women with uncomplicated labour. This reflected considerable variation clinical practice. There are significant differences between dose requirements and intrapartum Standard recommended doses higher than required, potential for acute cardiovascular adverse effects. We recommend...
Current methods of crystalloid preload administration prior to spinal anaesthesia for elective caesarean section are relatively ineffective in preventing hypotension. This study examined the relevance timing fluid administered. Fifty women were randomly allocated receive either 20 ml.kg –1 solution during minutes induction (preload), or an equivalent volume by rapid infusion immediately after (coload). Significantly more patients coload group did not require vasopressor therapy pre-delivery...

Our institution has recently implemented a point-of-care (POC) ultrasound training program, consisting of an e-learning course and systematic practical hands-on training. The aim this prospective study was to evaluate the learning outcome curriculum. 16 medical students with no previous experience comprised group. program covered combination 4 well-described protocols (focus assessed transthoracic echocardiography, focused assessment sonography in trauma, lung ultrasound, dynamic needle tip...
BACKGROUND: It has been suggested that the dose requirement for spinal anesthesia (SA) is lower in obese patients cesarean delivery (CD). In this prospective, observational, noninferiority study, we tested hypothesis obesity would not have a clinically important effect on vasopressor requirements or block height. METHODS: Two groups of 25 parturients, group O (body mass index [BMI] >40 kg/m2) and N (BMI <32 requiring elective CD were recruited. All received 10 mg intrathecal hyperbaric...

( Anaesthesia . 2018;73:71–92) The objective of this comprehensive consensus statement was to provide practical and independent advice physicians for treating managing spinal anesthesia-induced maternal hypotension in both resource-rich resource-poor environments. This clinical best practices summary necessary as there has been much variation the methods used manage during cesarean section, increases risks fetal/neonatal health. While generalized recommendations have made management problem...
To assess the reliability and within subject variability of steady-rate ventilation (VE), oxygen uptake (VO2), heart rate, systolic diastolic blood pressure, 4 subjects exercised for 10 minutes at 3 work rates on a bicycle ergometer: 50 W, 125 W 55% maximum rate (55% max). Each testing session included two only 2 sessions were scheduled per week. The order was counterbalanced. In 8 to weeks, completed 20 trials while fourth 11 trials, all max. (S2w) expressed as percent mean response. VO2...
In three cases of pulmonary tuberculosis associated with the adult respiratory distress syndrome clinical features, which were similar to those patients miliary and syndrome, included a history cough, fever, dyspnoea on effort, physical signs tachypnoea, adventitious sounds, tachycardia, hepatomegaly. these radiological though suggestive diffuse oedema, more prominent side in cavitatory lesion appeared. The diagnosis was made easily from direct examination sputum. Despite early ventilatory...
Fifty patients undergoing primary coronary artery bypass surgery and 50 valve received either high-dose aprotinin (2 million units loading dose, 2 added to the CPB prime, 500,000 units/hr maintenance infusion) or placebo. Mean postoperative blood loss in first six hours was reduced from 321 ml placebo group 172 (95% confidence interval (CI) for difference = 95 189 ml). Seven 16 did not require transfusion with homologous blood. This study adds growing body of evidence that administration...
Summary Haemodynamic and cardiac structural changes in severe pre‐eclampsia pregnant women with human immunodeficiency virus ( HIV ) infection have not been clearly established. We performed transthoracic echocardiography on 105 women. Women demonstrated (mean SD ), untreated vs treated) preserved fractional shortening (40 (7.1)% 41 (8.6)%), a non‐dilated left ventricle (4.5 (0.49) cm 4.4 (0.44) cm), increased mitral valve E/septal e′ (10.5 (3.3) 10.6 (2.8)), tricuspid annular plane systolic...
Hypertension is common among patients presenting for surgery, and frequently untreated or inadequately treated. While the approach to patient with hypertension anaesthesia controversial, evidence base appropriate clinical decisions weak, this a problem that practising anaesthetists face on regular basis. This article seeks present unified of hypertensive offers suggestions as management options. As far possible, recommendations contained in have been based best available evidence.The authors...
