Continuous femoral nerve block is a well-accepted technique for regional analgesia after total-knee replacement. However, many patients still experience considerable pain at the popliteal space and medial aspect of knee. The goal this study to evaluate whether psoas compartment catheter provides better postoperative than does it as effective combination sciatic and, thus, improves functional outcome.Ninety who underwent replacement under standardized general anesthesia participated in...

Background Haemodynamic instability during the induction of anaesthesia and surgery is common may be related to hypovolaemia caused by pre‐operative fasting or chronic diuretic therapy. The aim our prospective, controlled, randomized study was test hypothesis that a predefined fluid bolus given prior general for minor would increase haemodynamic stability anaesthetic induction. Methods Two hundred nineteen fairly healthy adult patients requiring were enrolled. All received standard...

BACKGROUND: Goal directed fluid management in major abdominal surgery has shown to reduce perioperative complications. The approach aims optimize the intravascular volume by use of minimally invasive devices which calculate flow-directed variables such as stroke (SV) and volu me variation (SVV). OBJECTIVE: We aimed show feasibility routinely implementing this type hemodynamic monitoring during pancreatic surgery, evaluate its effects terms postoperative outcomes. METHODS: All patients...

To test whether high circulating insulin concentrations influence the transport of β-alanine into skeletal muscle at either saturating or subsaturating concentrations, we conducted two experiments whereby and were controlled. In experiment 1, 12 men received supraphysiological amounts intravenously (0.11 g·kg-1·min-1 for 150 min), with without infusion. β-Alanine carnosine measured in before 30 min after Blood samples taken throughout infusion protocol plasma analyses. content 24-h urine was...

Postoperative nausea and vomiting has been described as the big little problem in anesthesia, with overall incidence after anesthesia using volatile anesthetics remaining between 20 30%. In patients who receive ambulatory surgery, postoperative may lead to delayed discharge or unplanned overnight admission hospital which is counterproductive primary goal of saving costs healthcare by undergoing day-surgery. The same economic factors apply experience chemotherapy. Drugs today are judged their...

Die Echokardiografie ist ein Verfahren, das in der Anästhesie und operativen Intensivmedizin verbreitet Anwendung findet. In Kardioanästhesie die transösophageale (TEE) als Standardverfahren mittlerweile unverzichtbar geworden. Studien konnten belegen, dass intraoperative TEE einerseits chirurgische Entscheidungsfindung, insbesondere bei Herzklappeneingriffen, günstig beeinflusst [1], zugleich aber auch zuverlässiger wertvoller Teil des hämodynamischen Monitorings [2].

(Abstracted from J Cardiothorac Vasc Anesth, 31:602–609, 2017) Perioperative hemodynamic monitoring and intervention using transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) in high- risk surgery patients can decrease the rates of adverse events, morbidity, mortality; however, evidence regarding its benefits is required. This prospective interventional study aimed at evaluating efficacy intraoperative TTE to alter patient management high-risk extensively monitored surgical susceptible instability.
