Dexmedetomidine Added to Ropivacaine Single Shot vs Continuous Interscalene Nerve Block
Arthroscopic shoulder surgery is increasingly performed in an outpatient setting and post-operative pain management is often a real challenge as those surgeries are well recognized for their high level of pain which often affects physical rehabilitation. The interscalene block is a largely used anesthetic technique to perform these surgeries whilst …
Pediatric Anesthesia Consent - Visual Aids
Informed consent in pediatric anesthesia is obtained from the caregiver by the anesthesiologist prior to surgery. Studies demonstrate that caregivers often do not fully understand or recall the information (risks and benefits) discussed with them during the consent process. The use of visual aids (pictographs etc.) in the consent process …
Preoperative Blood Volume Optimization Using Transthoracic Echocardiography
Immediately following the induction of general anesthesia, arterial hypotension may occur with an incidence of about 40% in patients classified as ASA 3 or 4. Perioperative arterial hypotension is associated with increased perioperative morbidity and mortality. The increased mortality associated with perioperative arterial hypotension has been reported up to 30 …
Analgesic Efficacy of an Intermediate CPB in Neck Surgeries.
This study aims to investigate the analgesic efficacy of Intermediate Cervical Plexus Block combined with GA using two bupivacaine concentrations in patients undergoing neck surgeries (total thyroidectomy or total laryngectomy)
Sevoflurane's Effect on Neurocognition Study
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of acute pain on long-term memory and conditioned physiologic responses in the presence and absence of low dose sevoflurane. Functional magnetic resonance imaging will be used to identify the neural correlates of these phenomena. The study will occur over 2 …
Nitrous Oxide Neuroimaging
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of acute pain on long-term memory and conditioned physiologic responses in the presence and absence of low dose nitrous oxide. Functional magnetic resonance imaging will be used to identify the neural correlates of these phenomena. The study will occur over …
The Effects of Using Different Anesthetics on the Prognosis of Primary Lung Tumors and Its Mechanism of Action
This is a two-arm, parallel-group randomized clinical trial. Routine perioperative care would be performed in volunteers with primary early lung cancer. The study will enroll approximately 300 volunteers to compare the progression-free or overall survival in patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) for primary lung tumors between propofol and sevoflurane …
Low-Thoracic Epidural Anesthesia For Laparoscopic Nephrectomy.
Laparoscopic nephrectomy is a surgical technique to excise a diseased kidney. It's a minimally invasive technique, so when compared to open surgery, it can mean significantly less post-operative pain, shorter hospital stay, earlier return to work and daily life activities, a more favourable cosmetic result and outcomes similar to that …
Spinal Versus General Anesthesia on Postoperative Pulmonary Complications
The objective of this study was to investigate the difference in postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) between spinal anesthesia and general anesthesia in patients undergoing delayed hip surgery.
Hypertension and Cerebrovascular Hemodynamics in General Anaesthesia
During anesthesia, blood pressure-raising medications are often required to achieve an adequate blood pressure level. However, there is limited knowledge about what constitutes an adequate blood pressure to ensure sufficient blood flow to the brain. This project aims to map the relationship between blood pressure and brain blood flow using …
