Background: We intend to evaluate the effect of intraoperative diphenhydramine administration on incidence and severity of catheter related bladder discomfort (CRBD) and pain after percutaneous nephrolithotomy. Methods: In a double blind randomized clinical trial, adult male patients undergoing percutaneous nephrolithotomy were enrolled. They were randomized into two groups by a computerized digital random allocation method. Before anesthesia induction, group D (Diphenhydramine group) (n = 48) received 5 ml normal saline containing 0.5 mg/kg of diphenhydramine intravenously. In group C (Control group) (n = 48), 5 ml of normal saline was injected in the same manner. Induction and maintenance of anesthesia were identical in both groups. The incidence and severity of CRBD and postoperative pain were assessed at recovery room. Results: The incidence of CRBD was significantly lower in group D than in group C (14% vs. 63%, P=0.001). The severity of CRBD was milder in group D in comparison to group C (P<0.05). Postoperative pain score was significantly lower in group D (P<0.05). Conclusion: Intraoperative administration of diphenhydramine is an effective practice for the prevention of CRBD after percutaneous nephrolithotomy in male patients and can reduce postoperative pain as well.

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common hematological malignancy in the pediatric age group. Anesthesia in such patients necessitates special considerations, in terms of disease progression and its respective treatment as well. We present a case of a 2-year-old child, a known case of ALL posted for drainage of multifocal brain abscess under general anesthesia. Anesthetic management of children with ALL presenting for neurosurgical procedures should focus on disease and its various systemic manifestations, treatment-related side effects, and anesthetic interactions which sometimes may be disastrous

Background: One of the most important treatments used in women with infertility is IVF, and improving its results can affect the success of assisted reproductive techniques. It was previously shown that anesthetics can enter the follicular fluid (FF), so there is concern about the accumulation of anesthetics in the FF and their negative effects on fertilization and fetal growth under general anesthesia. The use of drugs that have both analgesic and sedative effects but do not have hemodynamic side effects is of particular importance and dexmedetomidine is one of the drugs introduced in this field. On the other hand, the use of sedatives such as midazolam and propofol may cause hemodynamic disturbances and severe hypotension in these patients, which limits the use of such drugs. Accordingly, and considering the importance of the issue, in this study, we decided to evaluate and compare the effect of propofol and dexmedetomidine on fertility in IVF candidates. Methods: In this clinical trial study, 78 infertile patients who underwent IVF were randomly examined. After dividing the patients into two groups receiving dexmedetomidine and propofol or standard recording doses, the fertility rate of the patients in the two groups was evaluated using chi-square and Fisher tests at a significance level of 0.05. Results: The use of dexmedetomidine for (P = 0.0348) Pressure_After_Dia, HR_Before (P = 0.0204), Injection_Time (P =0.000) and Recovery Time (P =0.000) indices caused a significant increase compared to the propofol group. Conclusion: The results of the present study did not show a significant difference in the use of these two drugs on fertility.

Background: Prolonged predelivery time in cesarean-section (C-section) may be associated with worse neonatal outcomes such as lower umbilical cord acid-base profile. This study investigated the association between surgical and anesthetic predelivery time intervals and neonatal acidosis in pregnant women delivering via C-section under spinal anesthesia. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 70 pregnant women candidates for elective cesarean C-section, referred to Yas Hospital. Results: Umbilical artery pH<7.3 was observed in 27 (38.6%) out of 70 included participants. The study variables including maternal age, hypertension, and gestational diabetes were not associated with umbilical pH level. 1-minute Apgar scores were linearly associated with pH (β: 0.170, 0.100 to 0.239, p-value<0.001). Among all evaluated surgical and anesthetic intervals, induction of spinal anesthesia to delivery (β: -0.008, -0.012 to -0.004, p-value<0.001), and skin incision to uterine incision interval (β: -0.006, -0.009 to -0.002, p-value=0.002) interval time had a significant linear association with PH. Conclusion: The duration of induction of spinal anesthesia to delivery and skin incision to the uterine incision in non-emergent C-sections is linked to lower neonatal umbilical pH which shows the importance of optimizing the timing of elective C-section surgeries and reducing the risk of neonatal acidosis for obstetricians and anesthesiologists.

Background: Perioperative pain management can improve surgery results and patient outcomes. Moreover, multimodal methods for pain control have been advised so this study was conducted to assess the beneficial impact of preoperative ultrasound-guided femoral nerve blocks in hip replacement surgery. Methods: This study is a double-blinded clinical trial including 60 individuals who were candidates for joint replacement surgery. The intervention group (n = 30) received a femoral nerve block prior to general anesthesia. Results: After surgery, patients received morphine, Apotel, and morphine + Apotel, all of which were administered at lower doses in the intervention group (femoral nerve block) than in the control group. Pain intensity in first hour (P= 0.01), 4 hours (P= 0.003), 8 hours (P= 0.01), 12 hours (P= 0.001), and 24 hours (P= 0.01) after surgery and average pain 4 hours (P= 0.01), 8 hours (P = 0.01), 12 hours (P = 0.02), and 24 hours (P= 0.01) after surgery was significantly less in the intervention group (femoral nerve block) than in the control group. Conclusion: The findings of our investigation demonstrated the efficacy of ultrasound-guided femoral nerve blocks in the improvement of pain control following hip replacement surgery.

Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) is an orthostatic headache syndrome with variable symptoms and complications which is often misdiagnosed at initial manifestations. SIH results from spontaneous CSF leakage leading to brain sag. The typical findings on cranial MR imaging consist of subdural fluid collections, enhancement of the pachymeninges, engorgement of venous structures, pituitary hyperemia, and sagging of the brain. Subdural hematoma may occur as a result of tearing of bridging veins and usually develop into chronic subdural hematoma. The majority of patients with SDH due to SIH have chronic DSH and, therefore, rarely present with neurological deficits. Evacuation of SDH may be performed for large SDH with ME (mass effects), or when dilated or asymmetric pupil is present. However in most cases, evacuation of the hematoma is not necessary and may result in worsened outcomes. The epidural blood patch (EBP) is a treatment of choice. Fortunately, most of these subdural hematomas can be handled with treatment directed at the underlying spinal CSF leak without the need for surgery. We report the case of 42-year-old man with the chief complaint of orthostatic headache. He was admitted to neurology ward and after imaging studies, it was found that he has bilateral subdural hematoma. Due to the lack of history of trauma, underlying disease, and coagulation disorder, and considering the imaging findings, the patient was referred to the pain department to perform an epidural blood patch. After performing the epidural blood patch, the patient's pain was relieved immediately, and during a three-month follow-up period, the epidural hematoma was completely absorbed. Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) is a highly misdiagnosed and underdiagnosed disorder and requires a high index of suspicion for diagnosis. During the last decades, a much larger number of spontaneous cases are identified. Literature is a bit confusing, with some authors recommending evacuation of subdural fluid in cases of deteriorating consciousness and few others recommending EBP first even in patients with comatose state but epidural patch is often an important part of treatment.

Background: Nausea and vomiting after operation has high prevalence and cause adverse effect. The aim of this study was to compare the effect of dexmedetomidine with ondansetron in prevention of post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) after middle ear surgery under general anesthesia.and saliva gas in traumatic patients under mechanical ventilation. Methods: This in this double-blinded clinical trial study, one hundred and sixty-two patients undergoing middle ear surgery under general anesthesia were randomly divided into three groups of 55 each: ondansetron (O), dexmedetomidine (D) and control (C). Group O received 0.1 mg/kg of ondansetron, Group D received 1 μg/kg/min of dexmedetomidine and Group C received 10 cc of normal saline 15 to 20 minutes before surgical incision. After that, the patients were examined in post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) and up to 24 hours after the operation in terms of PONV and other study variables. Results: The severity of nausea after operation based on VAS (visual analog scale) was significantly different between Group O (2.2±0.7) and Group D (3.9± 0.7) and Group C (5.15±1.3) (P= 0.04). The incidence of vomiting in the first 24h postoperatively was 14.8% in Group O, 46.3% in Group D and 88.8% in Group C (P= 0.003). Conclusion: Our study showed that ondansetron was better than dexmedetomidine for prevention of PONV after middle ear surgery.
