Vasopressor usage can affect the rostral spread of intrathecal drug and, hence, its requirement during cesarean delivery. Although a decreased spread is evidenced with phenylephrine, there is no data for norepinephrine usage. The present study aimed to evaluate the minimum effective dose of intrathecal hyperbaric bupivacaine for cesarean section with and without prophylactic norepinephrine infusion. Patients scheduled for elective cesarean section under combined spinal–epidural block were randomized to receive intravenous infusion of norepinephrine (0.05 μg/kg/min) or normal saline (placebo), initiated immediately after intrathecal injection. Postspinal hypotension in either group (systolic arterial pressure ≤0.8 baseline) was treated with norepinephrine 4 μg rescue. Dose of intrathecal hyperbaric bupivacaine (0.5%) was decided for individual patients using up-and-down sequential allocation method. Primary outcome measure was the minimum effective dose of intrathecal hyperbaric bupivacaine (0.5%) defined as ED50, while secondary observations included spinal block characteristics and neonatal outcomes. Demographic parameters were statistically similar between both groups (P > 0.05). ED50 of intrathecal hyperbaric bupivacaine was 7.8 mg (95% confidence interval [CI]: 6.7–8.8) and 7.4 mg (95% CI: 6.1–8.7) for normal saline and norepinephrine group respectively (P = 0.810). Block characteristics were similar between both groups as was neonatal APGAR score, but umbilical artery base excess was greater for norepinephrine versus normal saline group (−4.4 ± 3.6 vs. −6.5 ± 2.4, P = 0.038). Use of prophylactic norepinephrine (0.05 μg/kg/min) during cesarean delivery does not require adjustment of intrathecal hyperbaric bupivacaine.

Throat pack insertion is required for many otolaryngological surgeries under general anesthesia. To facilitate surgery, an oral Ring, Adair, and Elwyn (RAE) endotracheal tube is used. When the Macintosh blade is used to insert the pack, the tube often moves to the left as per its design. We designed a groove in the Macintosh laryngoscope blade to hold the endotracheal tube in place during pack placement. This study was done to compare the grooved and conventional Macintosh laryngoscope blades for throat pack insertion with respect to the intraoral movement of the tube, ease of packing, time taken, and associated hemodynamic changes in patients who have been intubated with a preformed oral endotracheal tube. This randomized control trial included 80 patients after approval from the institutional ethics committee and CTRI. Informed written consent was taken from all patients. Packing of cases was done with either grooved (group G) or conventional Macintosh laryngoscope blade (group C). Student’s t-test, Chi-square test, and Mann–Whitney U test were used to analyze data. The tube remained in the center in 35/40 patients in group G as compared to 10/40 patients in group C (P < 0.0001). Packing the throat was significantly easier (P = 0.005), and time taken to pack the throat was shorter in group G as compared to group C (P = 0.0008). The endotracheal tube remains in the center more often during throat pack insertion using a grooved laryngoscope blade as compared to the conventional Macintosh laryngoscope blade. The grooved blade is easier to use and takes less time to insert the throat pack.
许多耳鼻喉科手术都需要在全身麻醉的情况下插入喉咙包。为了方便手术,需要使用口腔 Ring、Adair 和 Elwyn(RAE)气管插管。当使用 Macintosh 刀片插入气管袋时,气管往往会按照其设计向左移动。我们在 Macintosh 喉镜刀片上设计了一个凹槽,以便在放置药包时固定气管导管。这项研究的目的是比较带凹槽的喉镜刀片和传统的 Macintosh 喉镜刀片在插入喉咙填料时的喉管口内移动情况、填料的难易程度、所需时间以及使用预制口腔气管插管的患者的相关血流动力学变化。 在获得机构伦理委员会和 CTRI 批准后,该随机对照试验纳入了 80 名患者。所有患者均已获得知情书面同意。病例的填塞采用槽式(G 组)或传统 Macintosh 喉镜刀片(C 组)。数据分析采用学生 t 检验、卡方检验和 Mann-Whitney U 检验。 与 C 组的 10/40 名患者相比,G 组的 35/40 名患者的喉管保持在中心位置(P < 0.0001)。与 C 组相比(P = 0.0008),G 组患者的喉咙包装明显更容易(P = 0.005),包装喉咙所需的时间也更短(P = 0.0008)。 与传统的 Macintosh 喉镜刀片相比,使用带凹槽的喉镜刀片插入喉咙填料时,气管导管更容易保持在中心位置。凹槽刀片更易于使用,插入喉腔填塞物所需的时间也更短。

Ultrasonography (USG)-guided arterial cannulation is a frequently performed procedure in the operating room and intensive care unit. Conventionally, longitudinal/in-plane and transverse/out-of-plane approaches are used for cannulation. Recently, a longitudinal oblique approach has been described with the advantage of wide visualization area. Hence, the present study was designed to compare the success of USG-guided radial artery cannulation in longitudinal oblique axis (LOA) and longitudinal axis (LA). Seventy patients requiring radial artery cannulation were randomly allocated into two groups: group L (USG-guided radial artery cannulation in LA) and group O (USG-guided radial artery cannulation in LOA). Primary outcome was to assess cannulation success in the first attempt, while the secondary outcomes were to assess the number of attempts, failure rate, total cannulation time, and associated complications. First-attempt success was higher in group O (80%) compared to group L (54.3%), with a P value of 0.022. In group L, 31.4% required two attempts and 5.7% had three attempts, while in group O, 14.3% had two attempts and 2.9% required three attempts. Group L failure rate was 8.6%, while it was 2.9% in group O. The mean total cannulation time (sec) for group L was 146.83 ± 89.37 and group O was 63.89 ± 26.277. No complication was observed with group O, while in group L, 9% had hematoma formation. The LOA approach for USG-guided radial artery cannulation has higher first-pass success rate, total success rate, and requires less cannulation time compared to the LA approach.
超声波(USG)引导下的动脉插管是手术室和重症监护室中经常进行的手术。传统的插管方法有纵向/平面内和横向/平面外两种。最近,有人描述了一种纵向斜入路,其优点是视野开阔。因此,本研究旨在比较 USG 引导的桡动脉插管在纵向斜轴(LOA)和纵向轴(LA)上的成功率。 70 名需要桡动脉插管的患者被随机分为两组:L 组(USG 引导下桡动脉在 LA 轴插管)和 O 组(USG 引导下桡动脉在 LOA 轴插管)。主要结果是评估首次尝试的插管成功率,次要结果是评估尝试次数、失败率、总插管时间和相关并发症。 与 L 组(54.3%)相比,O 组的首次尝试成功率更高(80%),P 值为 0.022。在 L 组中,31.4% 的人需要尝试两次,5.7% 的人需要尝试三次,而在 O 组中,14.3% 的人需要尝试两次,2.9% 的人需要尝试三次。L 组的平均插管总时间(秒)为 146.83 ± 89.37,O 组为 63.89 ± 26.277。O 组未观察到并发症,而 L 组有 9% 的患者出现血肿。 与 LA 方法相比,USG 引导下桡动脉插管的 LOA 方法具有更高的首次插管成功率和总成功率,所需的插管时间也更短。

Vasoactive-ventilation-renal (VVR) score has been validated in predicting postoperative outcomes in pediatric cardiac surgery. The aim was to evaluate its potential in predicting early postoperative outcomes in adult patients undergoing mitral valve surgery. A single-center prospective observational study involved 100 patients undergoing mitral valve surgery. We evaluated preoperative variables (Ambler score), VVR, and vasoactive-inotropic score (VIS) on admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) and then at 12, 24, and 48 hrs postoperatively. Outcomes assessed were length of stay in ICU (LOS-ICU), length of hospital stay (LOHS), and mortality. The data were analyzed using multivariable logistic regression model, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, and areas under curve (AUC). Our study showed the potential utility of the VVR score as a powerful tool for predicting early outcomes after mitral valve surgery, with VVR at 48 hrs having superior predictive capability.

Evaluation of pulmonary function by spirometer in adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery is a simple test to assess pulmonary reserve that has important implications in operative morbidity. However, there is no established consensus regarding which patients should undergo preoperative pulmonary function tests (PFTs), including forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1) and forced vital capacity (FVC). The primary aim was to evaluate the outcome of preoperative PFTs on patients undergoing rheumatic mitral valve surgery. One hundred patients undergoing rheumatic mitral valve surgery, meeting the inclusion criteria, were included in this prospective observational study. The pulmonary function of the patients was assessed using a spirometer before surgery. Preoperative pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) and arterial blood gas (ABG) analyses were also performed. The correlation of PFTs with early postsurgical outcome, comprising mortality within 30 days of surgery and morbidity defined as the existence of at least one of the postoperative complications, such as low cardiac output state indicated by increased requirement of inotropes, prolonged ventilation (>24 hours), postoperative new-onset hemodynamically significant arrhythmias, renal dysfunction, and post-op infection, was assessed. With the increasing New York Heart Association (NYHA) class of the patient, there was a decline of FEV1% and FVC%, which was statistically significant (P < 0.0001). There was a significant positive correlation of FVC% with preoperative saturation of peripheral oxygen (SpO2) and preoperative saturation of peripheral carbon dioxide (PaO2) and FEV1% with preoperative SpO2 and preoperative PaO2. Patients who had postoperative prolonged ventilation had lower values of FVC% and FEV1%, which was statistically significant (P < 0.001). The patients who expired had significantly lower values of FVC% and FEV1%. Preoperative lung function has an implication on intraoperative morbidity during cardiac surgery although a common consensus on its application is lacking. Preoperative spirometry can be one of the parameters for predicting postoperative morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing rheumatic mitral valve surgery. Spirometry might have a role to play in predicting patient outcomes in rheumatic mitral valve surgeries; however, larger well-powered studies are needed.
