<h2>Summary</h2><h3>Background</h3> Regular, detailed reporting on population health by underlying cause of death is fundamental for public decision making. Cause-specific estimates mortality and the subsequent effects life expectancy worldwide are valuable metrics to gauge progress in reducing rates. These particularly important following large-scale spikes, such as COVID-19 pandemic. When systematically analysed, rates allow comparisons consequences causes globally over time, providing a...
Overweight and obesity is a global epidemic. Forecasting future trajectories of the epidemic crucial for providing an evidence base policy change. In this study, we examine historical trends global, regional, national prevalence adult overweight from 1990 to 2021 forecast 2050. Leveraging established methodology Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study, estimated among individuals aged 25 years older by age sex 204 countries territories Retrospective current were derived based on...
Despite the well documented consequences of obesity during childhood and adolescence future risks excess body mass on non-communicable diseases in adulthood, coordinated global action early life is still insufficient. Inconsistent measurement reporting are a barrier to specific targets, resource allocation, interventions. In this Article we report current estimates overweight across adolescence, progress over time, forecasts inform actions. Using established methodology from Global Burden...
Background: Selecting the appropriate sizes for laryngeal mask airways (LMAs) has become a concern anesthesiologists. Traditionally, size selection relied on factors like patient weight and gender. Nevertheless, emerging research indicates that incorporating anthropometric data could benefit identification of optimal LMA individual patients. Objectives: This randomized controlled trial aims to compare effectiveness based against determined by measuring hyoid-cricoid distance (HCD). Methods:...
Controversy remains about the positive role of music during general anesthesia and postoperative recovery. We, therefore, tested hypothesis that intraoperative exposure to classical reduces propofol necessary maintain bispectral index (BIS) close 50 vitrectomy surgery.This double-blind clinical study is evaluating patients undergoing surgery under anesthesia. Patients were randomly assigned white noise groups, relevant sounds played after induction The two groups compared for use as an...
Background. Acetabular fracture surgeries are frequently accompanied by protracted and severe perioperative pain, there is no consensus on optimal pain relief management. Aim. This study aimed at comparing the analgesic efficacy of fascia iliaca compartment block (FICB) quadratus lumborum (QLB) in patients with acetabular fractures undergoing surgery using Stoppa method. Methods. In this double-blind, randomized, noninferiority clinical trial, adult spinal anesthesia for surgery, Imam...
The world has experienced a pandemic due to novel Severe Acute Respiratory Disease Corona Virus-2 (SARS-CoV2) since December 2019. clinical spectrum of the disease known as Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) is so much wide, starting from an asymptomatic state paucisymptomatic presentation, pneumonia, respiratory failure even death. Supplemental oxygen therapy essential in managing COVID-19. Also, there sparse evidence regarding use non-invasive ventilation (NIV) pandemics like SARS-CoV-2. This...
"Simulated-patient scenarios and role-playing" OSCE are among the many non-traditional education methods with variable results in different clinical settings.This cross-sectional study was performed to assess correlation between of these two senior anesthesiology residents, a special focus on four six ACGME core competencies.During years, residents were subject "simulated patient scenario sessions. Two faculty members took role one relatives. An objective checklist 15 items prepared be rated...
BACKGROUND: The coronavirus, which is caused by acute respiratory syndrome, appeared in Wuhan, China, December 2019 and gradually spread around the world until almost all countries became infected with coronavirus. In Iran, outbreak of coronavirus began on February 21, 2020, report infection two people city Qom. aim this study to evaluate clinical findings neonates born pregnant women corona disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS: During case (February 21 November 30, 2020), out 88 mothers who...
Airway management, especially outside the operating room, needs meticulous observation in order to avoid certain risks, such as; endotracheal tube (ETT) disloca-tion, esophageal intubation, and unwanted extubation. ETT or tracheostomy dislocation is responsible for one-half of death brain damage cases ICU. Despite appropri-ate fixation an ETT, previously mentioned compli-cations can still occur . A broken consequent airway obstruction may lead lethal complications.We report a case caused by...
Spinal anesthesia is an important and commonly used method for surgical anesthetic in operating rooms. However, even with identical drug dosage administration mode, the extent of distribution vivo highly variable difficult to control. Preanesthetic fluids immediately before spinal (preload) normal practice. The choice fluid type may affect as well duration level block.We examined whether preloads saline, Ringer, or hydroxyethyl starch has different effects on time it takes reach maximum...
Background & Objective: Delayed diagnosis and treatment of postpartum hemorrhage could result in mortality. Today, there is a strong desire to determine the factors affecting hemorrhage, particularly fibrinogen levels. This study aimed investigate role plasma levels severe hemorrhage.Materials Methods: cross-sectional was conducted on 169 term pregnant women who were candidates for an elective Cesarean section. Fibrinogen other coagulating measured before at end surgery, twenty-four hours...
Background & Objective: Globally, postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) remains a leading cause of maternal deaths. However, in many low and middle-income countries, information on the magnitude risk factors for PPH is scarce. Understanding relative contributions different important. We assessed incidence among women who had cesarean section Iran.Materials Methods: Between March 2021 2022, prospective cohort study was conducted at university-affiliated general hospital Iran. used Spearman’s...
Introduction: PHACES syndrome is a neurocutaneous that consists of posterior fossa brain malformation, hemangiomas the face, arterial cerebrovascular cardiovascular anomalies (Coarctation aorta), eye anomaly, and sternal defect or supraumbilical raphe. Most these manifestations would interfere with anesthesia hence need major considerations. Case Presentation: A 2.5-month-old female weighing 2100 gr was candidate for laser therapy due to retinopathy prematurity. She diagnosed syndrome. Her...
Background: Endotracheal intubation is a potentially high-risk aerosol-generating procedure. So, an box (I-Box) designed for personal protection during intubation. This study aimed to compare the outcomes of endotracheal with and without I-box in COVID-19 patients. Methods: In this study, 60 patients (30 each group) groups were included. including duration intubation, first-pass success suitable visibility airways, restriction movement neck, need surface maneuvering airway, number attempts...
A rare case report of lysyl hydroxylases deficiency undergoing scoliosis surgery. An 8-year-old Persian patient with a known presented scoliosis. On physical examination, he had course facial hair, elbow flexion contracture, and knee contracture. He history eye surgery, clubfoot, hearing problems. underwent surgery growing rod instrumentation. Surgery can be done in these patients caution, the surgeon anesthesiologist should aware potential complications during after
