Figure 1 shows a very simplified version of the proposed waterfall/ cascade model of the coagulation system. Unfortunately, as we started to understand more about the coagulation system, it became more and more complex. Many of the enzymes were found to be cofactors or were precursors to the active form. We also found that the 2 pathways were not completely separate in function. They appeared to be an intertwined system where modulation of one arm may or may not affect the second arm. The modern view of coagulation is to actually look at the coagulation system as a series of steps, 1) initiation, 2) amplification, and 3) propagation, as opposed to distinct pathways, (1) but the old 2 pathway model is still beneficial in terms of helping us understand what abnormal coagulation tests mean. This chapter will exam some causes of abnormal coagulation in the perioperative period and discuss agents that are used to modulate the coagulation system.","PeriodicalId":91163,"journal":{"name":"Refresher courses in anesthesiology","volume":"38 1","pages":"128-133"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1097/ASA.0B013E3181EAE432","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"62018068","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}

When considering this topic, one could reach broadly and include discussions of a variety of typical childhood diseases that increasingly persist into adulthood. This list includes such conditions as cerebral palsy, metabolic disorders, cystic fibrosis (CF), congenital heart disease (CHD), sickle cell anemia, muscular dystrophies and myopathies, as well as many of the childhood cancers that may leave both physical and psychological scars even when completely cured. Therefore, this review is limited to topics most relevant to the day-to-day practice of anesthesiology in the ‘‘real world’’ setting. Specifically, it will focus on the adult with repaired or palliated CHD, the adult with CF, and the increasingly common adult with a myopathy or dystrophy such as Duchenne or Becker. There are an infinite number of congenital disorders, chromosomal abnormalities, malformations, associations, and defects that even those of us devoted to tertiary pediatric anesthesia cannot possibly commit to memory. For those patients there are excellent resources that can provide focused information to assist in the anesthetic care. Although in everyday practice there is a tendency to focus on the concrete or nuts and bolts of the care of patients, it is important to provide a foundation for the discussion of the adult with a pediatric disease. By definition these ‘‘children’’ have chronic conditions that have required that they be involved repeatedly with the healthcare system; both as surgical and medical patients. As a consequence, they are very savvy as to the system and how to make it work best for them. They also have very clear preferences and are active participants in decisions regarding their healthcare management. Even though they are now young adults they are frequently accompanied by parents who also have an enormous amount of experience within the healthcare setting. To make the care of these patients and their families with success, it is critical to keep in mind the following: Often the patient and family know more about the rare disease that they have than you do. Two things are helpful: (1) Take a moment to read about the disorder to gain a basic familiarity with it here are excellent books and web sites that are helpful. (2) Admit to the family and the patient that this is a disorder that is not common in your practice. Patients and families will often test you to find out if you know anything about the rare condition. Having a fundamental knowledge and admitting the limits of that knowledge will be reassuring to the patient and family.","PeriodicalId":91163,"journal":{"name":"Refresher courses in anesthesiology","volume":"38 1","pages":"55-62"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1097/ASA.0B013E3181FF883E","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"62018536","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}

Lubarsky","doi":"10.1097/ASA.0B013E3181EAE211","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1097/ASA.0B013E3181EAE211","url":null,"abstract":"Cardiovascular Changes Gelman et al. established the basis of our understanding of the pathophysiology of hemodynamic changes that occur with aortic clamping and unclamping. Aortic cross clamping increases mean arterial pressure and systemic vascular resistance (SVR) up to 50%. These sudden increases are due to an increase in mechanical afterload, activation of renin, and release of catecholamines, prostaglandins, and other vasoconstrictors. This increase in SVR causes an initial reflexive decrease in cardiac output (see Supplemental Digital Content 1, http://links.lww.com/ASA/A1). Some of the initial changes in hemodynamics associated with cross clamping can be offset by the sympathectomy caused by a thoracic epidural or with boluses of a vasodilator administered immediately before placement of the clamp. Shortacting pharmacologic agents (e.g., 0.3-0.7 mcg/kg of nitroprusside, 80-200 mcg of nitroglycerin or 200-600 mcg nicardipine) offset the mechanical effect of cross clamping, allowing the body to adapt. Preload changes are more variable than changes in SVR. Higher central venous and pulmonary artery occlusion pressures occur with higher clamp placement due to central redistribution of blood. In the patient with coronary disease, nitrate therapy during cross clamp will not necessarily prevent wall motion abnormalities, and care should be exercised when using any vasodilator so that perfusion pressure below the aortic cross clamp remains sufficient to avoid visceral/spinal cord ischemia. We will allow a systolic blood pressure (SBP) as high as 180-200 mm Hg provided there is no contraindication and the surgeon has acceptable operating conditions. Relative hypotension (less than 20% below baseline mean arterial pressure) probably should be avoided unless other means, such as shunts, are used to provide perfusion below the clamp. The level of clamping and the chronicity of occlusive disease can dramatically affect the hemodynamic response. The hemodynamic response is greater when the clamp is more proximal along the aorta (proximal descending thoracic aorta 4 supraceliac 4 suprarenal 4 infrarenal). There is an even smaller hemodynamic response when","PeriodicalId":91163,"journal":{"name":"Refresher courses in anesthesiology","volume":"38 1","pages":"23-29"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1097/ASA.0B013E3181EAE211","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"62017944","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}

Brennan","doi":"10.1097/ASA.0b013e3181e9561f","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1097/ASA.0b013e3181e9561f","url":null,"abstract":"Progress in postoperative pain management decreases morbidity after surgery. To advance patient care, reduce perioperative morbidity, and decrease healthcare costs, it is critical that we improve acute postoperative pain management. Our armamentarium of drugs for acute pain management has been limited to opioids, controlled delivery of local anesthetics, and nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs or acetaminophen. For acute pain management, we operate using guidelines from the early 1990s that reinforced the generous use of opioids for acute pain even though effective dosing is limited by deleterious side effects. Anesthesia-based acute pain services popularized continuous epidural analgesia, which controls pain better during activities and continuous regional techniques for specific surgeries. If the 1990s assured us opioids should be used with confidence, the last 5 years has demanded efficacious alternatives to opioids with fewer side effects and, perhaps, improved outcome. This is in contrast to patients with rheumatoid arthritis who may be treated with drugs that block the action of inflammatory mediators such as tumor necrosis factor or interleukin-1 (IL-1). With increasing new knowledge and techniques come important opportunities and challenges for developing insights into the causes, mechanisms, and treatment of human disease. For anesthesiologists, we have an opportunity to treat surgery and trauma as a disease, and this requires investigation into the pathological processes that occur in the perioperative period. One component of the pathophysiology in surgery is acute postoperative pain. Our long-term goal will be to eliminate postoperative pain. This will require that we develop a better understanding of the mechanisms for surgical pain and prepare to use recent discoveries in biomedical research.","PeriodicalId":91163,"journal":{"name":"Refresher courses in anesthesiology","volume":"38 1","pages":"8–15"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1097/ASA.0b013e3181e9561f","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"62018337","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}
