In our study, we aimed to determine the anxiety of loss of professional skills that may be caused by staying away from operations for a long time due to the pandemic in operating room workers and the reasons that may cause anxiety caused by working under the threat of coronavirus infection during the normalization process. Methods: The population of this cross-sectional study consists of doctors, nurses, technicians, and auxiliary personnel working in the operating room of our hospital. Sociodemographic form, health histories, Worry and Anxiety Questionaire (WAQ) and occupational skill loss anxiety questionnaire were applied to the researchers. Results: Worry and Anxiety (WA) scores and occupational anxiety scores of female healthcare workers were found to be statistically significantly higher than males. It was determined that the WA scores of the anesthesia assistants and operating room nurses were statistically significantly higher than the scores of the surgeons and assistants. It was determined that the WA scores of the participants with chronic disease were statistically significantly higher than those without chronic disease. Conclusion: Psychological support should be continued for health workers who work under intense working conditions and high risk, especially for health workers on the front line, and their family members when necessary. It has been determined that anesthetists and health workers who have previously had psychological disorders and chronic diseases carry a high risk of worry and anxiety, and psychological support should be prioritized.

Our secondary aim is to compare the processing time of these two techniques. Methods: Sixty-one adult patients who were intubated in the intensive care unit and scheduled for PDT due to the need for long-term mechanical ventilation were included in the study. The patients were randomly divided into ETT group or P-LMA group under bronchoscopy guidance. Complications related to the procedures and the duration of each procedure were recorded. Hemodynamic measurements, oxygen saturation, arterial blood gas analysis, preferred mechanical ventilation mode, positive end expiratory pressure and mean airway pressure values were recorded before PDT, and 30 minutes after the procedure. Results: A total of 61 cases, 23 (38%) female and 38 (62%) male, participated in the study. Regarding the complication rates between the groups, we encountered more complications in the ETT group and the most common complication was puncture of the cuff of the intubation tube. The procedure time was also significantly shorter in the P-LMA group (P-LMA; 2.5 min, ETT; 3.6 min). Conclusion: Using P-LMA for PDT under bronchoscopy caused lower complication rate than using ETT. In a addition the duration of PDT procedure was shorter in P-LMA group than ETT group.

The passage of irrigation fluid into the systemic circulation can cause hypervolemia, hyponatremia and due to them TURP syndrome with restlessness, confusion, dyspnea, arrhythmia and seizures. The most important point is early diagnosis. Our aim was to reveal the statistical relationship between serum sodium (Na) values and the pleth variability index (PVI) in patients who underwent TURP. Methods: Thirty-three ASA I-III and 40-80 years old patients who underwent TURP under spinal anesthesia were included in the study. The patients were taken to the operating room and standard monitoring was applied. Venous blood samples were taken from the peripheral vascular access before and after the procedure, and Na values were determined; PVI values were recorded at 5-minute intervals from the preoperative period to the postoperative period by performing PVI monitoring. Results: The PVI data correlated with postoperative osmolarity, postoperative Na concentration, resection time and irrigation amount as an early predictor of hypervolemia and seconder hyponatremia. Conclusion: We think that more comprehensive case studies are needed in terms of the usability of PVI, which is a noninvasive method compared to blood gas sampling, an invasive method for the diagnosis of hypervolemia and hyponatremia, and that continuous monitoring and follow-up provide an advantage in early diagnosis.

Our aim is to analyze the anesthesia management and the ultrasonography use during WLL, retrospectively. Methods: Preoperative and perioperative anesthesia related data and data on the use of ultrasonography of 19 WLL precedures of 11 patients, with PAP, performed between January 2018 and December 2020 were evaluated. Results: A statistically significant difference was found in the partial oxygen pressure and peripheral oxygen saturation values of the patients after WLL when compared to the pre-procedure (p<0.001). The number of patients who required O2 decresaed to 1 from 9 after WLL (p=0.008) Complications were recorded in only 4 of 19 procedures. While only hypoxia was observed during one procedure, hypoxemia and fluid leakage were detected during two procedures. Hypoxemia, fluid leakage and hypotension were detected in one procedure. Conclusion: Whole lung lavage procedure is safe when performed by an experienced and coordinated team in management of PAP patients. We think that ultrasonography may play an effective role in continuing the procedure safely and in early diagnosis of complications that may occur during WLL.

In our study we analysed the analgesic efficacy of bupivacaine alone and bupivacaine with dexmedetomidine in ultrasound guided bilateral suprazygomatic maxillary nerve block (SMN) for cleft palate repair. Methods: This study was a randomized prospective double-blinded study. Fourty six children of the ASA class I and II posted for cleft palate repair were randomized into Group A and Group B. In Group A, 23 children had SMN block with 0.15 mL kg-1 of 0.25% bupivacaine with saline and the same procedure was repeated on other side. In Group B, 23 children received SMN block with a volume of 0.15 mL kg-1 of 0.25% bupivacaine with dexmedetomidine 0.5 µg kg-1 on each side. Primary outcomes analysed were pain scores in post operative period by Children and Infants Post-Operative Pain Scale (CHIPPS) and the analgesia duration. Postoperative pain scores were analysed at 30 minutes intervals for 2 hours in Post Anaesthesia Care Unit (PACU) and at every 2 hours interval for 24 hours in the postoperative ward. Results: Group A and B were comparable in demographic variables like age, gender, weight, ASA status, and duration of surgery. Children in Group B had significantly longer duration of analgesia when compared to that of Group A (12±4.73 hours vs 5.41± 3.9 hours) (p=0.003). Children had significantly lower pain scores in Group B at zero min in PACU (p=0.04), after 90 min (p=0.02), at 2 hours (p<0.001), 4 hours (p<0.001), 6 hours (p=0.006) and at 8 hours (p=0.02) when compared to that in Group A. Conclusion: Children who received bupivacaine with dexmedetomidine in SMN block had a longer analgesia duration and lesser postoperative pain scores than children who received bupivacaine alone.

METHODS: The files of patients who underwent unilateral TKR surgery under spinal anesthesia between August 2018 and June 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. A total of 163 patients were included in the study, 81 patients in group 1 who received %0.25 bupivacaine, and 82 patients in group 2 who received %0.50 bupivacaine for femoral block. The highest visual analogue pain scale (VAS) scores in the postoperative 24 hours, the amount of tramadol requested and consumed with intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) devices, and whether there was a significant difference in terms of side effects (nausea, vomiting, motor and sensory deficit) were analyzed. RESULTS: The highest VAS score in group 1 was 2.95 ± 1.31, in group 2 it was 2.84 ± 1.06, and there was no significant difference between them. The mean consumption of tramadol was 197.04 ± 92.03 mg in group 1 and 208.05 ± 85.06 mg in group 2. There was no difference between the demand and consumption of tramadol and side effects. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION: 20 mL %0.25 bupivacaine for the femoral block provided the equivalent analgesic efficacy to the same volume of %0.50 bupivacaine. We think that the use of % 0.25 bupivacaine is a more reliable option to reduce systemic side effects, motor block risk and complications.","PeriodicalId":36000,"journal":{"name":"Anestezi Dergisi","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73734131","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
