Abstract

Fluid therapy is one of the most essential things in managing critical patients, such as ICU patients. Although it seems simple, this is difficult to do in this group of patients. The fluid needs of ICU patients vary according to the course of the disease. Therefore, fluids must be given according to individual needs, and each phase of the disease must be reassessed. To support this, there is a conceptual model that explains fluid administration based on the phases of the disease that the patient is going through. The ROSE concept (resuscitation, optimization, stabilization, and evacuation) describes the phases of a patient's illness and how fluids should be administered. In the resuscitation phase, the goal is lifesaving and is achieved by positive fluid balance. In the optimization phase, fluid balance is neutral and aims to save organs. In the stabilization phase, the fluid balance has started to move in a negative direction and aims to support the organs. Finally, in the evacuation phase, fluid balance is negative and organ repair has occurred. By implementing this model, it is hoped that ICU patients will have better outcomes

Abstract

Background: This case report highlights an occurrence of bilateral diaphragm paralysis following surgical drainage for deep neck infection.Case: A 56-year-old male underwent surgical drainage and tracheostomy for a deep neck infection. Before the second surgical drainage, he exhibited tachypnea (>30 bpm), although his general condition was not significantly compromised. Following a successful drainage procedure, he was transferred to the intensive care unit and placed on mechanical ventilation. Despite attempts at spontaneous breathing trials (SBT), he failed each trial, leading to a deterioration in his general condition. Subsequently, he was diagnosed with diaphragm paralysis.Conclusion: The clinical manifestations of bilateral diaphragm paralysis closely resemble the common symptoms of sepsis. Therefore, it is crucial to recognize that surgical interventions for deep neck infections may pose a risk of developing diaphragm paralysis, likely associated with phrenic nerve palsy.

Abstract

Background: Neuroanesthesia management presents a unique challenge for anesthesiologists. They must provide an optimal surgical condition without worsening the patient's neurological deficits. Therefore, we need drugs with neuroprotective abilities. This case report explains the perioperative management of neuroanesthesia in patients with supratentorial tumors who have excised tumors using a neuroprotection technique and total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA).Case: A 43-year-old female patient with space-occupying process cerebri with the differential diagnosis of meningioma frontotemporal dextra, post trepanation frontal sinistra tumor excision, edema cerebri, and hydrocephalus on ventriculoperitoneal shunt. On physical examination, Glasgow coma scale E3M6Vaphasia, aphasia and left hemiparesis were found. She underwent a tumor excision procedure with total intravenous anesthesia modified with neuroprotection techniques and total intravenous anesthesia techniques using 300 mg thiopental, 2 mg midazolam, 150 µg fentanyl, 80 mg lidocaine, and 50 mg rocuronium. Intraoperative anesthesia management was carried out by administering propofol 50 mg/hour, fentanyl 50 µg/hour, and atracurium 15 mg/hour.Conclusion: Total intravenous anesthesia is a complete general anesthesia method used in all intravenous agents, where the benefits of this method are used in neurosurgery, including accelerating the patient's return from the effects of anesthesia, faster recovery of cognitive function, as well as reducing intracranial pressure and the risk of ischemia.

Abstract

Background: Tonsillectomy is one of the common types of ear, nose, and throat (ENT) surgery. Patients undergoing tonsillectomy frequently experience significant postoperative pain due to oropharyngeal muscle spasms and irritation of afferent nerve fibers. According to previous studies, triamcinolone for peritonsillar block was used to reduce postoperative pain in patients who have undergone tonsillectomy. The aims and objectives of this study were to observe the effectiveness of peritonsillar block using triamcinolone for reducing pain in patients with post-tonsillectomy using the bipolar electrocautery technique.Case: A 34-years-old male patient with chronic tonsillitis and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) was undergoing tonsillectomy with general anesthesia and peritonsillar block after general anesthesia with triamcinolone 0,5 mg/kg body weight in the right and left fossa peritonsillar. Postoperative hemodynamic monitoring was carried out in the inpatient room. Patients were assessed for pain scale after tonsillectomy and side effects of triamcinolone, with pain indicator using the Wong-baker faces pain rating scale, numeric pain rating scale, and Face, legs, activity, cry and consolability (FLACC) Scale. Pain scales were assessed 1 hour after the tonsillectomy in the recovery room, 3 hours after the tonsillectomy in the inpatient room, 8 hours after the tonsillectomy in the inpatient room, 1 day after the tonsillectomy in the inpatient room, and 2 days after the tonsillectomy by phone. The patient went out of the hospital after 1 day of tonsillectomy.Conclusion: Peritonsillar block with triamcinolone is effective in reducing pain after tonsillectomy and can be the drug of choice when administering peritonsillar block.

Abstract

Background: Aortic stenosis severity assessment plays a central role in determining appropriate clinical management. Variability between imaging modalities may influence diagnostic accuracy and therapeutic decisions. This study aims to compare transthoracic echocardiography and transesophageal echocardiography in grading aortic stenosis among patients undergoing aortic valve replacement. Methods: This prospective observational study included 50 patients scheduled for aortic valve replacement, each undergoing both transthoracic echocardiography and intraoperative pre-cardiopulmonary bypass transesophageal echocardiography. Aortic valve area (AVA), mean pressure gradient, peak jet velocity, and dimensionless index were measured using standard echocardiographic techniques. Paired comparisons between the two modalities were performed using a paired t-test with α = 0.05 and a 95% confidence interval (CI). Result: Transthoracic echocardiography yielded a mean aortic valve area of 0.584 ± 0.08 cm², whereas transesophageal echocardiography measured 0.623 ± 0.07 cm², demonstrating a significant difference (p = 0.020). Transesophageal echocardiography reported a lower mean pressure gradient (39.08 ± 6.15 mmHg) and peak jet velocity (3.71 ± 0.42 m/s) compared with transthoracic echocardiography (49.14 ± 7.85 mmHg and 4.23 ± 0.53 m/s, respectively), with both parameters showing statistically significant differences (p < 0.001). No significant difference in the dimensionless index was observed between the two modalities (p = 0.250). Conclusion: Transesophageal echocardiography presents higher AVA measurements but lower pressure gradients and peak velocity values than transthoracic echocardiography, potentially altering aortic stenosis severity grading. Dimensionless index values remain consistent between modalities. Standardized evaluation protocols are required to guide the selection of the most appropriate imaging modality for accurate assessment of aortic stenosis.
