Abstract Background Despite its widespread use, the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA)-Physical Status Classification System has been shown to result in inconsistent assignments among anesthesiologists. The ASA-Physical is also used by nonanesthesia-trained clinicians and others. In 2014, ASA developed approved examples assist determining correct assignment. effect these anesthesia-trained on appropriate assignment hypothetical cases was examined. Methods Anesthesia-trained were...
The accurate, voice entry of radiologic reports into a computer takes significantly longer than by keyboard. Careful speech and considerable patience are required to avoid an unacceptably high error-rate. With improvements in the future, this technology may compete with conventional technology.
Abstract Background A successful anesthesia pre-assessment clinic needs to identify patients who need further testing, evaluation, and optimization prior the day of surgery avoid delays cancelations. Although ASA Physical Status Classification system (ASA PS) has been used widely for over 50 years, it poor interrater agreement when only using definitions. In 2014, ASA-approved examples each physical status class PS). this quality improvement study, we developed evaluated effectiveness...
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; SARS-CoV-2) pandemic has created serious challenges to anesthesiologists. As hospitalized patients’ respiratory function deteriorates, many will require endotracheal intubation. Airway management of infected patients risks aerosolization viral-loaded droplets that pose hazards the anesthesiologist and all health care personnel present. addition an enclosure barrier during airway minimizes hazard by entrapping possibly aerosols within enclosed space...
Objective Our objective was to evaluate the efficacy of perioperative multimodal pain management in reducing opioid use after elective cesarean delivery (CD). Study Design A single-center, double-blinded, placebo-controlled randomized trial women undergoing CD. Participants were allocated 1:1 receive protocol or matching placebos. The consisted a preoperative dose intravenous acetaminophen, preincision injection subcutaneous bupivacaine, and intraoperative intramuscular ketorolac. Primary...
To the Editor With an impending shortage of personal protective equipment (PPE) and rising infection among health care providers, novel coronavirus transmission via aerosolization is promoting new barrier discoveries for provider protection. Recently, Taiwanese doctors created "aerosol box" that has 3 openings—2 ports 1 side, which restrict hand movements patient positioning; not feasible to use on emergent situations such as trauma, cardiopulmonary arrest, or a requiring cesarean delivery;...

Tako-tsubo cardiomyopathy or "apical ballooning" was first described in Japan 1990 by Satoh et al. [7] The syndrome is characterized transient left ventricular dysfunction resulting from severe physical emotional stress. This report describes a 64-year-old woman who underwent CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) because of cardiac failure due to tako-tsubo cardiomyopathy. A subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) ruptured anterior communicating aneurysm diagnosed as the underlying cause seven days later.
A derivative of imidazole, 1-benzylimidazole [(1-phenylmethyl)-H-imidazole], was found to have strong cardiotonic activity. In isolated ventricular strips rabbits, 6.3 times 10(-5) M (BI) increased contractile force by 100%, and in the intact cat, 0.5 mg/kg BI cardiac output 30 40%. The increase maintained both preparations for 5 minutes. Heart rate not changed atropine-pretreated cat. Basic cycle length, recorded intracellularly rabbit sinoatrial nodal cells, 8%. Since had many actions...
For the milling simulation at petrosal bone, realistic haptic VR interaction between CT bone-data and burr is required. Known linear models can calculate abrasion but do not represent reality. We present a new exponential model for calculation in combination with physic simulation.
“Colorful Colorado” provided a beautiful backdrop for the 47th Annual Meeting of Society Obstetric Anesthesia and Perinatology (SOAP). The 2015 meeting convened from May 13 to 17 at luxurious Broadmoor Hotel Resort in Colorado Springs offered 504 attendees 19 countries an extraordinary opportunity engage variety obstetric anesthesia educational experiences focused on theme “The New Role Education Anesthesia—Educating Clinician, Trainees, Public.” On Wednesday, 3 well-attended workshops were...
Background: High levels of empathy among resident physicians are associated with improved patient outcomes.Empathy may be learned and practiced when reading nonmedical writing through narrative transportation, a process by which readers identify characters become emotionally involved in the plot.We hypothesized that residents fellows who reported more would have higher decrease during training.Methods: An emailed survey was sent to program directors Accreditation Council on Graduate Medical...
