The impact of asynchronous electroacupuncture stimulation duration on cold thermal pain threshold.

Discuss or comment on this article.
The durations of asynchronous electroacupuncture can affect the resultant hypoalgesia. Healthy volunteers were randomized to receive different durations (0 min, 20 min, 30 min, or 40 min) of asynchronous electroacupuncture stimulations (alternating low/high [2/100 Hz] frequency at 5 mA). Using a human experimental cold thermal pain threshold model, we found that 30 min of asynchronous 2/100 Hz stimulation resulted in the most significant hypoalgesic effect that was sustained for at least 60 min after stimulation compared with 0-, 20-, or 40-min stimulations (P < 0.05). We conclude that the most optimal duration for ...

CONCLUSION: The effects of minocycline on nitric oxide and the glutamatergic system and the effect of riluzole on the glutamate system are potentially important mechanisms in delaying morphine-induced tolerance.

Cytokine gene expression after total hip arthroplasty: surgical site versus circulating neutrophil response.Email this article to a colleague.

Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSION: There is a distinct cytokine gene expression profile in neutrophils at the THA surgical wound site at 24 h postsurgery when compared with that found in presurgery circulating neutrophils. Understanding these changes may allow us to knowledgeably manipulate neutrophil activity to reduce postoperative pain and inflammation without impairing wound healing.

Regional anesthesia for vascular access surgery.Email this article to a colleague.

Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSION: Use of regional blocks may improve the success of vascular access procedures by producing significant vasodilatation, greater fistula blood flow, sympathectomy-like effects, and decreased maturation time. However, a large-scale, prospective, clinical trial comparing the different anesthetic techniques is still needed to verify these findings.

Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSIONS: The lumbar triangles of Petit found in the specimens in this study were more posterior than the literature suggests. The position of the lumbar triangle of Petit varies largely and the size is relatively small. The relevant nerves to be blocked had not entered the TAP in the specimens in this study at the point of the lumbar triangle of Petit. At the midaxillary line, however, all the nerves were in the TAP.

We evaluated whether unilateral low-dose spinal anesthesia may reduce the likelihood of postoperative urinary retention. Forty patients scheduled for knee arthroscopy randomly received bilateral (n = 20) or unilateral (n = 20) spinal anesthesia with 6-mg hyperbaric bupivacaine 0.5%. The incidence of urinary retention (>500 mL) assessed with an ultrasound device (Bladderscan) and subsequent temporary catherization was 7/20 patients in the bilateral versus 6/20 in the unilateral group (not significant). We concluded that unilateral low-dose spinal anesthesia does not further decrease the likelihood of urinary retentio...

In this case report, we describe the successful use of ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia in progressive fibrodysplasia ossificans (stone man disease), a condition commonly regarded as a contraindication for regional anesthesia. A patient with advanced fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva presented with osteomyelitis of a foot and was scheduled for resection of the infected bones and soft tissue. Ultrasound imaging allowed us to identify the obscured anatomic landmarks for ankle block anesthesia and to restrict the injection of local anesthetics to the epifascial tissue and subcutaneous compartment. With this ankle...

Discuss or comment on this article.
Behind the multiple arguments for and against the use of premedication, sedative drugs in children is a noble principle that of minimizing psychological trauma related to anesthesia and surgery. However, several confounding factors make it very difficult to reach didactic evidence-based conclusions. One of the key confounding issues is that the nature of expectations and responses for both parent and child vary greatly in different environments around the world. Studies applicable to one culture and to one hospital system (albeit multicultural) may not apply elsewhere. Moreover, the study of hospital-related distress b...

CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrates that LMAs, particularly when using small-sized LMAs or LMAs with a more rigid PVC surface, need to be deflated following insertion of the device rather than inflated to avoid cuff hyperinflation. Hence, cuff pressures should be measured routinely using a manometer to minimize potential pressure-related airway complications.

Challenges have emerged following the revival of nitric oxide (NO) from 'something old', a simple gas derived from nitrogen and oxygen with a role in the early stages of evolution, into 'something new', an endogenously formed biological mediator regulating a wide variety of physiological functions. Although pain is a common sensation, it encompasses multiple neurobiologic components, of which NO is only one. In pain research, the study of NO is complicated by convoluted problems related mostly to the effects of NO, which are pro- or anti-nociceptive depending on the circumstances. This dual function reflects the multi-face...

In neonates, infants and young children central venous catheters are of vital importance during surgery as well as postoperative care. The benefit of ultrasonography seems to be very important for vascular access of the internal jugular (IJV), subclavian (SCV), femoral and even peripheral veins. Ultrasound-guided cannulation of the IJV increases the success rate, reduces the time to the successful puncture and decreases the inadvertent puncture of the carotid artery in children in comparison to the landmark-guided technique. Due to compression of the vessel by the approaching needle in neonates transfixing the vein and...

CONCLUSION: CPNBs are indicated after orthopedic surgery in children. Our results demonstrate that CPNBs are feasible in the pediatric setting, and in skilled hands, they promote prolonged analgesia in the majority of patients without major adverse events. The most common minor adverse events are catheter-related mechanical problems and postoperative nausea and vomiting.
