Experimental studies have related the cardioprotective effects of sevoflurane both to preconditioning properties and beneficial during reperfusion. In clinical studies, volatile agents seem more important when administered throughout procedure than used only in period. The authors hypothesized that observed patients undergoing coronary surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass are timing duration its administration.Elective were randomly assigned four different anesthetic protocols (n = 50 each)....
Volatile anesthetics protect the myocardium during coronary surgery. This study hypothesized that use of a volatile agent in anesthetic regimen would be associated with shorter intensive care unit (ICU) and hospital length stay (LOS), compared total intravenous regimen.Elective surgery patients were randomly assigned to receive propofol (n = 80), midazolam sevoflurane or desflurane 80) as part remifentanil-based regimen. Multiple logistic regression analysis was used identify independent...
Iatrogenic venous compression syndrome is defined by extrinsic vein due to medical hardware, particularly relevant after joint replacement surgeries. Inserting hardware can lead immediate risks such as deep thrombosis and pulmonary embolisms local tissue inflammation. The long-term issues include insufficiency chronic vessel irritation, subsequently causing intimal proliferation thickening. Despite the existing knowledge of syndromes, iatrogenic cases are severely underreported. Here, we...
Introduction. Cibenzoline is an antiarrhythmic drug used to treat patients with supraventricular or ventricular arrhythmias. overdose associated proarrhythmic and hemodynamic effects such as hypotension congestive heart failure. Case Report. We report a case of cardiogenic shock due cibenzoline in patient progressive renal insufficiency. Discussion. The standard treatment intoxication symptomatic, but we combined hemoperfusion-hemodialysis our patient. Conclusions. This was rapid decline...
This case report describes a unique presentation of May-Thurner syndrome (MTS) in 28-year-old woman, characterized by the congenital bifurcation left common iliac vein (LCIV) into outer (OLCIV) and inner (ILCIV) segments. Both veins experienced significant compression - OLCIV proximally ILCIV medially due to overlying right artery (RCIA) lumbar spine. The patient presented with bilateral spider veins, lower extremity swelling, pelvic discomfort, leg cramping. Detailed imaging venous duplex...
