Unanticipated Laryngeal Neoplasm: A Case of Intraoperative Airway Obstruction Requiring Emergency Tracheostomy

Dewa Gede Agung Sasmara Putera and Budi Yulianto Sarim

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: 2024/10/05

Effective airway management is crucial in anesthesiology, especially when dealing with unexpected complications such as undiagnosed laryngeal tumors. These tumors often present with subtle symptoms that can be easily misattributed to more common conditions, posing significant challenges during intubation....

Absolute Iron-Deficiency Anaemia, Intravenous Iron Replacement and Depression Prevalence in Pre-Operative Planned Gynecology Surgery: A Pre-Post Intervention Study

Daniel Wirth, Hester K Carter, Jonathan Holmes, Samuel Naylor, Amrutha Vishwanathan and Chiraag Talati

Article Type: Original Research | First Published: 2024/09/18

Iron-deficiency anaemia is common amongst women awaiting gynaecological surgery and often co-exists with and is a risk factor for depression and anxiety. As part of our pre-operative optimisation, we commonly treat specific cases of iron-deficiency anaemia with intravenous iron. Our objective was to study the relationship between iron-deficiency anaemia, intravenous iron correction, and the prevalence of depression and anxiety in our population....

An Interesting Case of Ruptured Sinus of Valsalva of Right Coronary Sinus with a Missed Vsd and the Role of Intraoperative Tee-A Mandatory Life Saving Tool

Roly Mishra, Vikas Sharma, MBBS, MD, FNB and Sunil Dhole, MBBS, MD, PDCC

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: 2024/09/13

Ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm (RSOV) (most commonly right sinus), a rare finding but well-recognized clinical entity. Invariably a form of left-to-right shunt due to rupture into right-sided chambers. A ruptured sinus of valsalva may lead to life threatening complications including myocardial ischemia, obstruction of right ventricle outflow tract and cardiac tamponade especially in acute rupture. Thus, it warrants urgent surgical or percutaneous repair. We present a case of CAD-TVD which w...

Comparison of Epidural Ropivacaine and Ropivacaine with Clonidine in Patient’s Undergoing Total Abdominal Hysterectomy: A Randomized Clinical Study

Izhar Faisal, Saima Salam and Sanjay Choubey

Article Type: Original Article | First Published: 2024/09/02

Epidural anaesthesia is preferred technique for the patients undergoing lower abdominal surgery, owing to its ability to provide perioperative anaesthesia as well as postoperative analgesia. Ropivacaine has emerged as a possible replacement of Bupivacaine because of its favourable clinical profile. Neuraxial adjuvants augment the action of local anaesthetics and allow reductions of anaesthetic and analgesic requirement....

Article Type: Research Article | First Published: 2024/07/26

This was a retrospective, analytical, observational, cohort type of an epidemiological study done through chart review of patients for hip surgery at Makati Medical Center. The primary endpoint was patient reported pain scores using numeric rating scale (NRS) of 1 to 10 at 0, 30, 60, 120 minutes at post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) and within 24 hours post-block and a comparison between the two groups. Additional endpoints included time and use of rescue opioid medication for pain relief within 2...
