Abstract: The discTRODE™ probe applies radiofrequency (RF) current, heating the annulus to treat chronic discogenic low back pain. Randomized controlled studies have not been published. We assessed the long-term effect and safety aspects of percutaneous intradiscal radiofrequency thermocoagulation (PIRFT) with the discTRODE™ probe in a prospective parallel, randomized and gender stratified, double-blind placebo-controlled study. Twenty selected patients with chronic low back pain and a positive one-level pressure-controlled provocation discography were randomized to either intra-annular PIRFT or intra-annular sham trea...

New drug, fospropofol disodium: a propofol prodrug.Email this article to a colleague.
Save this article to My Clippings.
Discuss or comment on this article.
The use of propofol presents chemical and clinical concerns, including pain on injection, allergy risks, possible bacteria growth, and hyperlipidemia. These concerns have encouraged the search for alternative propofol formulations. Elimination of the soybean oil and lecithin carrier agents is difficult because the highly lipophilic diisopropyl phenol molecule does not dissolve in water. Propofol in aqueous solution would be a preferable alternative to lipid-based emulsions. One formulation of propofol is fospropofol disodium (Lusedra, Eisai Corporation of North America, Woodcliff Lake, New Jersey), previously known as ...

Discuss or comment on this article.
Frequently, patients identified as high risk for postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) are treated prophylactically with intravenous (IV) ondansetron and postoperatively with IV promethazine. The purpose of this study was to determine if using an aromatic therapy of 70% isopropyl alcohol (IPA) would be more effective than promethazine in resolution of breakthrough PONV symptoms in groups of high-risk patients administered prophylactic ondansetron. All subjects enrolled were identified as high risk for PONV, administered general anesthesia and a prophylactic antiemetic of 4 mg of IV ondansetron, and randomized to rec...

Discuss or comment on this article.
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) assesses cerebral oxygen saturation (Sco2) as a balance between cerebral oxygen delivery and consumption. In 71 patients, we evaluated whether marked reduction in mean arterial pressure (MAP) during propofol-fentanyl anesthesia induction affects frontal lobe Sco2. The NIRS-determined arm muscle oxygenation (Smo2), heart rate (HR), and cardiac output (CO) were monitored, endtidal carbon dioxide tension was controlled at 3.5 to 4.5 kPa, and central blood volume was maintained. Before anesthesia, the median (range) MAP, HR, and CO were 93 mm Hg (61-126 mm Hg), 76 beats/min (50-96 beats/mi...

Discuss or comment on this article.
Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs) perform epidural steroid injections for chronic back and extremity pain. Placing epidural needles using fluoroscopy and confirming the needle placement by epidurogram has been suggested as a means to increase the efficacy of epidural injections while decreasing complications. Because of the risk of radiation injury to patients and staff when using fluoroscopy, the purpose of this article is to review the concepts of fluoroscopy and radiation safety for CRNAs. Following a literature search using keywords such as fluoroscopy, radiation injury, and radiation safety, relevant...

A patient had a fire in his chest cavity during dissection of the left internal mammary artery before coronary artery bypass graft. The electrosurgical unit indirectly ignited gauze, resulting in a fire. It was determined that oxygen was being entrained into the surgical field through open pulmonary blebs. This case identifies the need for continued fire training and prevention strategies, persistent vigilance, and quick intervention to prevent injury whenever electrosurgical units are used in an oxygen-enriched environment.

A young woman, with a contact dermatitis to nickel, experienced a life threatening anaphylaxis after induction of general anaesthesia for an emergency curettage. Hypersensitivity reaction involving IgE antibodies against succinylcholine was proven by positive skin test and radioimmunoassay detection of antibodies against succinylcholine and quaternary ammonium. After restoration of haemodynamics in a few hours, the patient had rhabdomyolysis predominant at lower left leg, which required a fasciotomy. An haemodialysis session was necessary, renal function being normalized thereafter. Several months later, the patient su...

Abstract: Fibromyalgia is a prevalent and burdensome disorder characterized by chronic widespread pain and complex comorbid symptoms. To develop better treatments for pain-centered fibromyalgia symptoms, there is still a need for animal models which mimic the features of fibromyalgia patients. In the present study, we have established a fibromyalgia animal model by utilizing a never-before-published pharmacological effect of reserpine. Repeated administration of reserpine (1mg/kg s.c., once daily, for three consecutive days) causes a significant decrease in the muscle pressure threshold and tactile allodynia, which are sus...
