Laparoscopy is associated with significant hemodynamic changes due to pneumoperitoneum creation. We sought to study the effectiveness of intraperitoneal local anesthetic instillation in attenuating pneumoperitoneum-mediated hemodynamic response in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. This randomized study was conducted after approval from the institutional ethics committee, and 100 patients were randomly assigned to either group R (40 mL of 0.2% Ropivacaine intraperitoneally) or group N (40 mL of 0.9% normal saline intraperitoneally). Data analysis was performed using SPSS version 23. Independent Samples T test was used to compare hemodynamic variables between groups at regular intervals. Statistical significance was set less than 0.05.: Heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and mean arterial blood pressure were significantly lower in Group R than in Group N at 15,30, 45,60,75, and 90 min (P<0.05).: Intra peritoneal instillation of 0.2% Ropivacaine in laparoscopic cholecystectomy attenuates intra operative hemodynamic changes associated with pneumoperitoneum.
腹腔镜手术与腹腔积气导致的显著血流动力学变化有关。我们试图研究腹腔镜胆囊切除术患者腹腔内局部麻醉剂灌注对减轻腹腔积气介导的血流动力学反应的有效性。这项随机研究是在获得机构伦理委员会批准后进行的，100 名患者被随机分配到 R 组（腹腔注射 40 毫升 0.2% 罗哌卡因）或 N 组（腹腔注射 40 毫升 0.9% 生理盐水）。数据分析采用 SPSS 23 版本。采用独立样本 T 检验比较各组间定期的血液动力学变量。在 15、30、45、60、75 和 90 分钟时，R 组的心率、收缩压、舒张压和平均动脉血压均显著低于 N 组（P<0.05）：腹腔镜胆囊切除术中腹腔内灌注0.2%罗哌卡因可减轻与腹腔积气相关的术中血流动力学变化。

Adjuvants in blockade of the brachial plexus can lengthen patient care and hasten the ambulation with stable hemodynamics. Brachial plexus block has possible complications like local anaesthetic systemic toxicity, pneumothorax, nerve injury etc. which can be overcome by use of ultrasound guidance with adjuvants like dexmedetomidine and clonidine for postoperative analgesia. Ropivacaine has higher motor to sensory differentiation and lesser cardiotoxicity.A prospective blinded study comprising of 90 subjects posted for elective upper extremity surgeries. To compare the onset, duration of sensory and motor blockade and analgesia of 0.5% ropivacaine with clonidine 1mg.kg- and 0.5% ropivacaine with dexmedetomidine 1mg.kg-. Ninety patients aged 18 – 60yrs were chosen and randomly allocated into two groups of 45 participants. 20mL of 0.5% Ropivacaine and dexmedetomidine 1mg.kg-was administered to Group A and Group B received Ropivacaine and clonidine 1mg.kg-. In Group A, 73.3% of the subjects showed onset of sensory block of 8 minutes while it was 10 minutes in 26.7% of the subjects. In Group B, 44.4% of the patients showed onset of sensory block of 8 minutes, and 26.7% of the patients showed onset of sensory block of 10 min. Statistically, subjects in Group A showed decrease in onset of block and a higher mean duration of sensory and motor block in contrast to Group B. Addition of dexmedetomidine to 0.5% ropivacaine in supraclavicular brachial plexus block decreased the time of onset of sensory and motor block and extended the period of analgesia.

Pregnancy with non-cirrhotic portal hypertension usually presents with portal hypertension due to Physiological hemodynamic changes associated with pregnancy, thereby putting the mother at risk of potentially dangerous complications like variceal bleeding and splenic aneurysmal rupture. Management of such cases requires a multidisciplinary approach involving obstetricians, gastroenterologist and, anesthesiologist Here through the case report of a 36-year-old primigravida with Non Cirrhotic portal hypertension with at 37 weeks gestational age in labor. We intend to focus upon different aspects of anesthetic management of pregnancy with portal hypertension and its complications.

Post-operative pain relief following pediatric abdominal surgery is of paramount consideration and caudal block is still a popular, easy as well as safe analgesic technique for effective analgesia in children. With the advent of newer local anaesthetics, there has been a renewed interest in pediatric caudal blocks after lower abdominal surgeries following general anaesthesia. The aim of our study was to compare the efficacy and duration of postoperative analgesia using caudal Ropivacaine and Levobupivacaine in pediatric patients undergoing infraumbilical surgery under general anaesthesia.: The study was conducted on sixty, ASA grade 1, pediatric patients of age 2 to 6 years, of either sex, posted for elective infraumbilical surgery under general anaesthesia. They were randomly divided in two groups of 30 patients each. Group 1: - (n = 30) received caudal block with injection Ropivacaine, 0.25%, 1ml/kg. Group 2: - (n = 30) received caudal block with injection Levobupivacaine, 0.25%, 1ml/kg. Comparative, randomized, single blinded, observational study. : The demographic data was comparable in both the groups. Postoperatively, the quality of analgesia was assessed by the MOP (Modified Objective Pain Scale) score. Duration of postoperative analgesia was assessed by noting the time of giving rescue analgesia in the post-operative period. We also noted side effects, if any in both the groups. The quality of analgesia was found to be similar with both the drug groups (p value >0.05). The duration of analgesia was longer and statistically significant (p value = 0.0006) in the Ropivacaine group (8.43 ± 0.77 hours) as compared to the Levobupivacaine group (7.03 ± 2.03 hours). Statistically significant difference (P value = 0.026) was seen in the requirement rescue analgesia between Ropivacaine (3.33%) and Levobupivacaine (26.67%) groups. There were no major side effects in either of the groups, apart from a single patient out of 30 patients of Levobupivacaine group who had vomiting, compared with none in the Ropivacaine group.We conclude that caudal block with 0.25% Ropivacaine has a longer duration of action as compared to 0.25% Levobupivacaine in children undergoing infraumbilical surgery under general anaesthesia. Both Ropivacaine and Levobupivacaine, have similar quality of postoperative analgesia and side effect profile.

: Cochlear implants serve as a favorable option for treatment of hearing loss in children. However, there is limited data regarding the type of anesthetic techniques used and its associated complications in such patients. Hence, the primary objective of this study was evaluation of postoperative nausea vomiting (PONV) with three different general anesthesia techniques in pediatric cochlear implant surgeries. The secondary objectives included assessment of intraoperative and postoperative complications: A retrospective analysis of all children less than 13 years, who underwent cochlear implant surgery at our hospital between December 2019 to February 2022 was performed. Appropriate data were noted. Nine patients each were classified into three groups (Group A, B and C) on the basis of anesthetic techniques used in our institution. Group A received inhalational agent for induction and maintenance, with no Non-Depolarizing Muscle Relaxant (NDMR), Group B patients received Total Intravenous Anesthesia with NDMR and Group C received intravenous induction and inhalational agent for maintenance with NDMR. Twenty-seven patients were included. There were no major intraoperative complications. PONV was noticed in two patients of Group A and one patient of Group C. One patient belonging to Group A developed laryngospasm and desaturation. Delayed Awakening was seen in one patient each of Group A, B and C. Overall, four complications were noted in patients of Group A, one in Group B and two in Group C. All complications were mild and were managed successfully.This preliminary study suggests that peri-operative anesthetic complications with all three anesthestic techniques were comparable and safe.

Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a rare inherited genetic disorder implicated in a life-threatening catastrophic event under general anaesthesia. In India, the total number of reported cases are of the magnitude of single digit due to lack of reporting. The mortality of MH is dramatically decreased from 70-80% to less than 5%, due to an introduction of dantrolene sodium for treatment of MH, early detection of MH episode using capnography, and the introduction of diagnostic testing for MH.In India, there is enormous dependence on clinical grading scale rather than halothane caffeine contraction test due to the lack of availability of accredited testing facilities. In addition to this, the drug of choice dantrolene, is not readily available everywhere in India. The scarcity of quintessential monitoring techniques cannot be ignored in peripheral areas. Despite these limitations many reported cases have survived with vigilant monitoring, prompt diagnosis and aggressive supportive care.

This study aims to compare the effectiveness of video laryngoscopes and Macintosh laryngoscopes for intubation by novices in a mannequin model.This study was conducted at our institution- Karuna Medical College, Hospital. A total of 50 house surgeons were included in this study. All 50 participants intubated on the airway trainer using a video laryngoscope and a conventional method using a Macintosh laryngoscope. Group A: Video laryngoscopy, Group B: Conventional Laryngoscopy. The following parameters such as – time taken to visualize vocal cords, time taken to intubate, POGO scoring, ease of intubation, etc. were recorded.Video laryngoscope performed better in terms of time-related metrics, glottis visibility, and injury prevention to lip and teeth. Both devices had a similar ease of intubation and number of attempts. The results provide evidence supporting the advantages of the video laryngoscope in certain aspects of intubation procedures. The video laryngoscope had several benefits over the Macintosh laryngoscope, such as top quality visualization of airway structures and an easier intubation process for novices. The video laryngoscope provides superior visualization of the larynx, requires fewer external adjustments, and reduces the number of intubation attempts compared to direct laryngoscopy using a Macintosh blade.
本研究旨在比较视频喉镜和麦金塔喉镜在人体模型中为新手插管的效果。共有 50 名外科医生参与了这项研究。所有 50 名参与者都在气道训练器上使用视频喉镜和使用 Macintosh 喉镜的传统方法进行了插管。A组A组：视频喉镜，B组：传统喉镜。视频喉镜在时间相关指标、声门可见度以及防止唇齿损伤方面表现更好。两种设备的插管难易度和尝试次数相似。研究结果证明了视频喉镜在插管过程的某些方面具有优势。与 Macintosh 喉镜相比，视频喉镜有几个优点，如气道结构可视化质量高，插管过程对新手来说更容易。与使用 Macintosh 喉镜刀片进行直接喉镜检查相比，视频喉镜可提供更佳的喉部可视效果，所需的外部调整更少，并可减少插管次数。

A total of 50 house surgeons were included in this study. All 50 participants intubated on the airway trainer using a video laryngoscope and a conventional method using a Macintosh laryngoscope. Group A: Video laryngoscopy, Group B: Conventional Laryngoscopy. The following parameters such as – time taken to visualize vocal cords, time taken to intubate, POGO scoring, ease of intubation, etc. were recorded.Video laryngoscope performed better in terms of time-related metrics, glottis visibility, and injury prevention to lip and teeth. Both devices had a similar ease of intubation and number of attempts. The results provide evidence supporting the advantages of the video laryngoscope in certain aspects of intubation procedures.
