Abstract

Background & Aim: Mucormycosis is a life-threatening fungal infection that occurs in immune-compromised patients. There were large number of mucormycosis cases reported during COVID pandemic (2019-21) mainly as post COVID sequelae. In the present retrospective study we aimed to evaluate the perioperative challenges faced in the anaesthetic management of Coronavirus disease associated Mucormycosis (CAM) patients who underwent surgery under general anesthesia. Methods: The perioperative records of CAM patients who underwent surgery from May 2021-July 2021 for mucormycosis were reviewed and evaluated in terms of difficult bag mask ventilation, difficult intubation and other intraoperative and post-operative complications. Observation and Results: The incidence of CAM and its associated surgery was significantly more in males than females and the mean age of the patients was 50 years. In 39.8% patients we encountered difficult bag mask ventilation. and in 17.5% patients more than two attempts for intubation were required. Conclusion: Mucormycosis patients posted for surgery may pose various anesthetic challenges especially in airway management and anesthesiologists must be well prepared for it

Abstract

Background and Aims: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy has emerged as a gold standard technique for gall bladder stones. The aim of the present study was to compare the analgesic effect of intravenous (IV) vs intraperitoneal (IP) dexmedetomidine as an adjuvant to intraperitoneal (IP) bupivacaine in laparoscopy. Methods: A prospective, randomized, double blind, interventional study was conducted on 100 patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy where they were divided into following 2 groups: Group A: Patients received IV 1µg/kg dexmedetomidine diluted to 30 ml with normal saline over 10 min and 40 ml of 0.125% bupivacaine IP after removal of gall bladder. Group B: Patients received IV 30 ml of normal saline and 1µg/kg IP dexmedetomidine in 40 ml of 0.125% IP bupivacaine after removal of gall bladder. The primacy outcome was noted as a difference in mean duration for need of first rescue analgesia. The total consumption of analgesic in first 24hours was recorded and compared between the two groups. Results: Both the groups were comparable in terms of demographic profile and intraoperative hemodynamic parameters with no statistical difference. Comparison of time to first analgesic requirement between the two groups showed statistically significant results with unpaired t test The time of first rescue analgesia in Group A was 151.80 min ± 76.624. and in Group B was 94.80min ± 21.499. The total analgesic requirement in 24 hours in Group A was 136.64 ± 31.251 and in Group B was 144.12 ± 21.49. Conclusion: In our study we concluded that intravenous dexmetomidine provided superior analgesia as compared to intraperitoneal dexmetomidine when used as an adjuvant with Bupivacaine intraperitoneally.
