INTRODUCTION: Paediatric male circumcision is a painful surgical procedure, which is usually carried out under general anaesthesia. Regional analgesic techniques, including dorsal penile nerve block (DPNB) and caudal nerve block (CNB), are superior to opioid and non-opioid systemic analgesia for postoperative pain control after circumcision. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The purpose of our study was to compare the efficacy, duration of postoperative analgesia, and complications of DPNB, CNB, and the combination of 2 blocks...

INTRODUCTION: The Russian invasion of Ukraine has caused huge damage to all medical infrastructure and impairs patient safety. The aim of our study was to assess the impact of implementation of the WHO Surgical Safety Checklist and Anesthesia Equipment Checklist on patient outcomes and adherence to safety standards in low-resource settings, affected by an ongoing war. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A prospective multicenter study was conducted in 6 large Ukrainian hospitals...

INTRODUCTION: In a randomized clinical study, we investigated the effectiveness of nasal lignocaine spray and swabs in treating postdural puncture headache (PDPH) after spinal anesthesia. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Group S patients received two puffs of lignocaine 10% spray in both nostrils followed by cotton soaked in normal saline, and group B patients received two puffs of saline spray in both nostrils followed by a cotton swab soaked in lignocaine 2%. Patients were assessed before the procedure and 30 minutes, 60 minutes, 2 h, 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h after the procedure for pain relief with the help of a visual analogue scale (VAS)...

INTRODUCTION: Transversus abdominis plane (TAP) has been mentioned as having bene-ficial effects on chronic pain after hernioplasty. This study assessed the effects of TAP block on acute and persistent postoperative pain after inguinal hernia surgery, with or without buprenorphine. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 64 patients were allocated to group R ( n = 32) and received 20 mL of 0.25% ropivacaine for TAP block; group RB ( n = 32) received 20 mL of 0.25% ropivacaine containing 300 µg of buprenorphine for TAP block...

INTRODUCTION: Postoperative pain associated with hip replacement surgery can be severe, decreasing the patient's mobility and satisfaction with perioperative treatment. Regional techniques are commonly used as postoperative analgesia in hip surgery patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We performed a prospective pilot study on patients undergoing hip replacement surgery. We anesthetized each participant with spinal technique and allocated patients according to postoperative analgesia to the continuous epidural group and the continuous lumbar erector spinae plane block (ESPB) group...

INTRODUCTION: Recent years have seen an increasing number of elective total knee (TKA) and hip arthroplasty (THA) procedures. Since a wide variety of methods and procedures are used in perioperative management, a survey-based study was carried out to identify the patterns of practice in Polish hospitals. MATERIAL AND METHODS: With the help of the LimeSurvey application, questionnaires for anaesthesio-logists and orthopaedists were prepared to gain insight into the preparation of patients for TKA and THA procedures and perioperative care...

Sarcopenia is a syndrome characterised by loss of skeletal muscle mass, loss of muscle quality, and reduced muscle strength, resulting in low performance. Sarcopenia has been associated with increased mortality and complications after medical interventions. In daily clinical practice, sarcopenia is assessed by clinical assessment of muscle strength and performance tests and muscle mass quantification by dual-energy X-ray absorptio-metry (DXA) or bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA). Assessment of the skeletal muscle quantity and quality obtained by abdominal computed tomography (CT) has gained interest in the medical community, as abdominal CT is performed for various medical reasons, and quantification of the psoas and skeletal muscle can be performed without additional radiation load and dye administration...

Medication error has emerged as a significant problem in healthcare, especially in the past 2 decades. In anaesthesia, the paediatric age group is particularly at risk of such events because of complex age- and weight-based drug calculation, drug formulations, serial dilutions, and often limited staff experience in handling such patients. We searched PubMed, Cochrane, and Google Scholar for literature on medication errors in paediatric anaesthesia in children (< 18 years of age). Two authors searched for the articles independently, and a third author sorted any consensus differences...

INTRODUCTION: Although manifestation of SARS-CoV-2 infection in children is gene-rally mild or asymptomatic, anaesthetic implications of the infection in children are still a matter of concern. Single reports suggest that patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection are at higher risk of anaesthetic complications. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We performed a retrospective, case control study analysing the risk of general anaesthesia in SARS-CoV-2 infected children admitted to a tertiary paediatric university hospital for the purpose of urgent procedures requiring anaesthesia  between April 1st and September 30 th , 2021...

INTRODUCTION: Spinal anaesthesia consists of administering a local anaesthetic in the subarachnoid space, thus causing sensory, motor, and autonomic nerve conduction block. Currently, recovery from spinal anaesthesia is evaluated by the return of motor function, without considering the autonomic blockade, which is responsible for most complications of the technique. Heart rate variability (HRV) is an indirect method to measure the autonomic nervous system and may be useful in assessing autonomic recovery after spinal anaesthesia...

INTRODUCTION: Femoral neck fractures are common orthopaedic fractures, especially in old age, and they represent a life-threatening condition requiring surgical intervention. In this study, we aimed to compare 2 regional techniques used to decrease perioperative pain. MATERIAL AND METHODS: In this parallel group randomized controlled clinical trial we enrolled 68 patients from both sexes scheduled for hip surgery after femoral neck fractures. The patients were randomly allocated to 2 equal groups with one receiving ultrasound- guided supra-inguinal fascia iliaca block (FIB) and the other receiving ultrasound- guided anterior quadratus lumborum block (QLB)...

INTRODUCTION: Previous literature has suggested that the presence of anxiety or depression may be linked to increased postoperative pain. The objective of this retrospective analysis was to assess whether patients who use anxiolytics or antidepressants preoperatively were associated with worse acute pain outcomes after elective total knee arthroplasty (TKA). MATERIAL AND METHODS: A chart review of patients who underwent TKA at our institution was conducted. The primary outcome was mean opioid use in oral morphine equivalents (OME) on the day of surgery (POD 0) through postoperative day 1 (POD1)...

INTRODUCTION: Although quantitative monitoring of neuromuscular blockade (NMB) is recommended, it is not routinely used in daily practice. The optimizing NMB management to improve patient safety and perioperative outcomes (OBISPO) quality improvement (QI) initiative intends to address this issue and change clinicians' behaviors. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A pilot phase of the prospective QI intervention was conducted. The primary objective was implement clinical practice change that emphasizes improving NMB monitoring in patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery who are eligible for fast-track extubation between February 2021 and December 2021...

INTRODUCTION: The plethysmographic variability index (PVI) is a dynamic approach for assessing volume status. This study aims to compare conventional fluid management and PVI based goal-directed fluid management (GDFM) during elective spine surgery in the prone position. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Sixty-six adult patients, ASA I-II, scheduled for elective lumbar spine procedures under general anaesthesia in the prone position were included. Patients were randomly divided into either the Conventional Group with the conventional fluid management protocol or the PVI Group with the PVI-based GDFM protocol...
