Optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) measurement with ultrasound has emerged as a simple, non-invasive and reliable surrogate of invasive intracranial pressure (ICP) measurement. Increase in ICP might lead to postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and postoperative headache. Here, we OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to report our experience with laparoscopic retrieval of disconnected shunt catheters in children.
METHODS
Demographic data, indications for shunt insertion, time to disconnection, symptomatology, time to retrieval, operative details, length of stay and
OBJECTIVE
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is usually performed under the general anesthesia (GA). Aim of the study is to investigate the availability, safety and side effects of combined spinal/epidural anesthesia (CSEA) and comparison it with GA for LC.
METHODS
Forty-nine patients who have a LC
OBJECTIVE
To determine the effect of lavage with adrenaline solution on CO2 absorption during retroperitoneal laparoscopic surgery.
METHODS
Sixty patients scheduled to undergo retroperitoneal laparoscopic surgery were divided into an AD group (lavage with normal saline containing adrenaline
BACKGROUND
Regional anaesthetic techniques have benefited those patients undergoing laparoscopic surgeries that are deemed high risk to receive general anaesthesia (GA). But spinal anaesthesia (SA) has not been routinely employed as the sole technique for laparoscopic cholecystectomy
We studied the consequences on cerebral hemodynamics of lengthy laparoscopic procedures requiring pneumoperitoneum and head-down positioning. From October 1995 to April 1999, 17 ASA status I or II patients (16 women and 1 man; mean age, 38 yr) were treated with laparoscopic anterior lumbar fusion.
UNASSIGNED
Laparoscopic appendectomy (LA) has been generally performed under general anesthesia. Laparoscopic appendectomy is rarely performed under regional anesthesia because of pneumoperitoneum-related problems.
UNASSIGNED
To compare spinal/epidural anesthesia (SEA) and general anesthesia (GA)
OBJECTIVE
Better control of the level, intensity, and duration of spinal analgesia represents the greatest advantages of continuous spinal anesthesia. With the advent of intermediate catheters (over-the-needle catheter) and its low incidence of headaches and neurological symptoms, the technique has
Animal models have illustrated that a carbon dioxide (CO(2)) pneumoperitoneum can cause a rise in intracranial pressure (ICP). This study investigated key symptoms and signs of raised ICP in 39 patients after laparoscopic abdominal surgery and compared them with a control group of 33 patients after
BACKGROUND
Pneumoperitoneum during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) can cause hypercapnia, hypoxemia, hemodynamic changes and shoulder pain. General anesthesia (GA) enables the control of intraoperative pain and ventilation. The need for GA has been questioned by studies suggesting that neuraxial
BACKGROUND
Laparoscopic surgeries have attained the status of a gold standard for most of the abdominal pathology; we therefore performed this study to assess feasibility and safety of major laparoscopic surgeries like laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) and laparoscopic assisted vaginal hysterectomy
