Abstract

Epidural Volume Extension (EVE) technique injects normal saline into the epidural chamber immediately after the injection of local anesthesia into the intrathecal space. Normal saline injection will increase the epidural space thus increasing the spreading of local anesthesia in previous intrathecal injections and making the distribution of cerebrospinal fluid to be higher. It can be said that EVE technique utilizes the volume effect of normal saline that decreases the volume of intrathecal space. The EVE technique may be useful for reducing the dose of local anesthesia injected intrathecally by still reaching a stronger block height for surgery, as well as for faster recovery of motor blockades. Unfortunately, the EVE technique does not significantly reduce the risks of hypotension. Hypotension persists even though the hemodynamics change is more stable.

Abstract

Epidural Volume Extension (EVE) technique injects normal saline into the epidural chamber immediately after injection of local anesthesia into the intrathecal (or after subarachnoid/spinal block). Normal saline injection would widen the epidural space thus making the spread of local anesthesia in previous intrathecal injections and the distribution of cerebrospinal fluid to be higher (more cephalad), or it could be said that this EVE technique utilizes the volume effect of normal saline that decreases the volume of intrathecal space. The EVE technique may be useful for reducing the dose of local anesthesia injected intrathecally while still achieve an adequate block height for surgery, as well as for faster recovery of motor blockades. Unfortunately, for the risk of hypotension, the EVE technique does not significantly reduce this risk. Hypotension persists even though the hemodynamics (arterial blood pressure drop mean) is observed to be more stable.

Abstract

Introduction: Henoch-Schonlein Purpura or Immunoglobulin-A vasculitis is a systemic vasculitis caused by immune complexes that attack small blood vessels. The classic symptoms of Henoch-Schonlein Purpura include erythema purpura,  arthralgia, gastrointestinal complaints, and renal involvement. Some cases show that pregnancy itself could be the trigger for its recurrence and lead to early delivery. Case report: A 33-year-old patient, G2P1A0 and 35 weeks and 4 days pregnant complained of diarrhea 8 days before hospital admission (8-15 times per day). The patient was diagnosed with Henoch-Schonlein Purpura 3 years ago. Upon monitoring in the ward, the fetus was found to be in a compromised condition and an emergency cesarean section was needed. The patient was assessed as having an ASA II physical status and was anesthetized with regional anesthesia epidural in the sitting position, with a median approach, puncture at L3-L4 level, and with 12 ml of Bupivacaine 0.5% isobaric. Postoperative care was continued in the ward. As long as there are no contraindications, a neuraxial block could be performed on parturient patients with Henoch-Schonlein Purpura who would undergo a cesarean section. Neuraxial block, namely epidural block, has the added advantage of being a postoperative analgesic and helps to avoid the use of Non-Steroidal Anti Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) in Henoch-Schonlein Purpura patients who often have renal complications. Conclusion: Caesarean Section with  Henoch-Schonlein Purpura disease has been reported with Epidural Block Anesthesia without complications.

Abstract

Introduction: Breakthrough Pain (BTP) is experienced as mild to moderate-severe pain, from only a few seconds to hours. It causes a decrease in the quality of life and functional capacities. Furthermore, BPT must be recognizable, assessed, and controlled to prevent its relapse and severity. Case report: A woman, 45 years old, having breast cancer along with pulmonary, femur, and cervical metastases, came with the main complaint of pain. The patient had a pain score of NRS 9, which was felt intermittently for the last 3 months. Treatment has been carried out with MST 10 mg/8 hours and a Durogesic® patch (fentanyl 50 mcg/h) but the pain did not subside. Moreover, the patient was unable to identify any precipitating factors or pain relievers, while the diagnosis confirmed BTP. The rescue dose was administered in a range of 10 – 20% of the total daily dose in the last 24 hours equivalent to 11 – 22 mg intravenous Morphine or equianalgesic with 110 – 220 mcg of fentanyl. For immediate effect, transmucosal fentanyl was recommended, but this preparation is currently unavailable. Moreover, therapy was carried out with the continuous administration of Morphine, and the pain reduced to NRS 0 – 3 on the second day. Conclusion: Transmucosal fentanyl, either buccal, sublingual, oral, or nasal mucosa, was proven to be effective in treating BTP. However, when transmucosal fentanyl is not available, multimodal analgesia is an effective alternative.

Abstract

Background: Anti N-methyl-D-aspartate Receptor (anti-NMDAR)  encephalitis is a rare, yet has had increasing number of cases. Patients often require airway protection, mechanical ventilation and intensive care because the patients’ complex symptoms accompanied by seizures that are difficult to control. Here, we present two related case reports that discuss intensive care management and focus on the administered sedation/anesthesia methods and their outcomes.Case illustration: Male patients, 19 and 21 years old, presented with neuropsychiatric symptoms, seizures, dyskinesia. Both require airway protection and mechanical ventilation as well as Intensive Care Unit (ICU) care. Radiodiagnostic head Computed Tomography (CT) scan and head Magnetic Resonance Imagng (MRI) showed no cerebral abnormalities. Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) examination showed positive NMDAR antibodies. First patient had failed to improve clinically even with multiple anti-convulsants, ketamine, dexmedetomidine, immunotherapy, and chemotherapy. Second patient clinically improved with benzodiazepine (midazolam) and propofol as anti-convulsants followed by plasma exchange immunotherapy. The two cases had different outcomes. The first case deceased from septic shock, while the second case was treated by outpatient procedure.Conclusion : Our presented cases suggest that midazolam, propofol, dextemedetomidine, ketamine do not provide satisfying results for seizure control in patients with anti-NMDAR encephalitis, unless immunotherapy is carried out as early as possible and optimally.
