Patient comfort was also looked at. METHODS The randomized single blinded study was conducted at the Aga Khan University Hospital, Karachi, from September 2007 to August 2008.

متن کاملChanges in cerebral blood flow during anaesthesia and surgery in the sitting position.
Serial measurements of global cerebral blood flow (CBF) were made in 15 patients undergoing elective neurosurgical procedures in the sitting position, using a modified intravenous 133Xenon technique. The mean supine CBF rose from 43 (+/-3) ml/100g/min to 62 (+/-6) ml/100g/min in the sitting position and remained elevated at the end of surgery at 62 (+/-5) ml/100g/min. Both increases in CBF were...
متن کاملQuadriplegia after interscalene block for shoulder surgery in sitting position.
gas samples were obtained and neither hypercarbia nor hypoxia occurred at both sides of single-lung ventilation. Video-assisted thoracic surgery was successfully performed and the surgeon satisfaction was very good. The patient was extubated without complications and transferred to the postoperative anaesthesia care. No discomforts like sore throat or minor injuries at the trachea were detected...
متن کاملcomparison of successful spinal needle placement between crossed-leg sitting position and traditional sitting position in patients undergoing urology surgery
results the rate of first-time successful spinal needle insertion was not significantly different between the clsp and tsp groups (62.9% versus 55.7%, p > 0.05). ease of landmark palpation in the clsp group was not significantly different from that in the tsp group (86.7% versus 76.4%, p > 0.05). the number of needle-bone contacts in both groups were not significantly different (p > 0.05). the ...
متن کاملComparison of ease of induction of spinal anaesthesia in sitting with legs parallel on the table versus traditional sitting position
Introduction It is sometimes difficult for some patients to optimally flex their hips and knees making traditional position for induction of spinal anaesthesia difficult to achieve. The ease of induction of spinal anaesthesia was compared with patients in sitting position with legs remaining on the table (new sitting method) versus legs placed on the side stool (traditional sitting method). M...
