Abstract: A 65-year-old male (90 kg and 178 cm) presented for transurethral resection of bladder tumor surgery. The patient had no history of diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, coronary artery disease, or lung disease. He smoked 10 cigarettes a day for 20 years and had managed to abstinence from smoking for the last 25 years. His physical examination revealed a blood pressure of 130/75 mm Hg, a regular pulse of 76 beats/min, and oxygen saturation of 96%. His preoperative electrocardiography (ECG) showed a sinus rhythm without any ST-T abnormalities. He denied a previous history of asthma, allergic rhinitis, and food or drug allergies. Prior to administering the spinal anesthesia, 1 g of ceftriaxone was

Abstract: Interscalene (ISB) and Supraclavicular (SCB) brachial plexus blockade have been shown to be safe and effective for perioperative analgesia during shoulder surgery. However, potential adverse effects, including phrenic nerve dysfunction, are usually well tolerated by most patients but may be more compromising in those with limited respiratory reserve. This investigation examined effects of local anesthetic (LA) volumes and incidence of phrenic nerve influences (primary outcome) during ISB and SCB.

Abstract: A low dose of sufentanil was insufficient to suppress endotracheal intubation (ETI) induced cardiovascular response. This study investigated the effects of combined sufentanil and remifentanil on hemodynamic changes during anesthetic induction and ETI. 70 adult patients were divided into two groups (n = 35). General anesthesia was induced by sufentanil, propofol, and cisatracurium. Group S received sufentanil 0.3 mcg/kg, while Group R received sufentanil 0.3 mcg/kg and

Abstract: Severe projectile epistaxis due to non-traumatic internal carotid artery aneurysms is potentially life threatening but extremely rare, with hardly any report existing in the literature. We present the case of a 21-year old male with a history of recurrent torrential epistaxis associated with headache and dizziness. Catheter angiography revealed two aneurysmal dilatations at the cavernous and supraclinoid segments of the right internal carotid artery.

Abstract: The epidural labour analgesia service at the delivery unit of the Tamale Teaching Hospital has recorded low patronage. Low patronage of epidural labour analgesia in poor resource Countries could partially be attributed to lack of awareness, limited resources or lack of equipment such as patient monitors, local anaesthetics or analgesics and overwhelming patient numbers. This study aimed to assess factors that influence epidural labour analgesia acceptance or refusal at the maternity unit of the Tamale Teaching Hospital.

Abstract: Medication errors are still one of the contributing factors leading to morbidity and mortality in anesthesia, despite measures to ensure patient safety. A 14-year-old male inadvertently received intrathecal tranexamic acid instead of hyperbaric bupivacaine for an elective herniorrhaphy. Shortly after induction, patient complained of severe back and lower limb pain, restlessness, tachycardia, hypertension, and generalized myoclonic seizures. Cardiopulmonary support was immediately instituted

Abstract: In 1860, Albert Niemann isolated cocaine from leaves and reported that by placing the crystals on his tongue, and his tongue became benumb. In the Brazil is a country with greatest annual consumption rates becoming one of the biggest consumer markets of cocaine worldwide. The objective of this study, carried out through a questionnaire survey, was to find out the degree of knowledge of anesthesiologists from a tertiary hospital in their conduct towards a cocaine user.
