Anaesthesia and Heart Failure
The following true/false questions may be attempted before reading the tutorial. The answers are given at the end of the text. 1. In the normal heart: a. Pre-load is the same as left ventricular end-diastolic volume b. Increase in pre-load has no effect on the force of the next contraction c. Systemic vasoconstriction reduces afterload d. Isovolumetric ventricular contraction ends when the aort...
متن کاملSpinal anaesthesia and cardiac disease.
by careful incremental dosage, the block can be instituted with minimal cardiovascular disturbance. This is precisely what you cannot do with spinal anaesthesia. In a patient with limited cardiac output and pulmonary oedema, the circulation is being supported by endogenous catecholamines. The rapid onset of spinal blockade is extremely likely to result in hypotension. Pulmonary oedema will be e...
متن کاملHuge Intracavitary Cardiac Hyadatid Cyst Presenting with Heart Failure
Although cardiac involvement is an infrequent presentation in human hydatidosis, early diagnosis and prompt surgical intervention of cardiac hydatid cyst are of utmost importance for the prevention of potential complications. We report a young female patient who presented with a huge cardiac hydatid cyst and severe heart failure symptoms undergoing successful surgical cyst removal with late fol...
متن کاملConsequences of Cardiac Arrests during Spinal Anaesthesia
Spinal anaesthesia has been used for more than a century and is considered as a relatively simple and safe technique. Occasionally unexpected bradycardia and/or asystole may develop during the administration of spinal anaesthesia in apparently healthy and young patients. These situations are often attributed as the consequence of mismanagement of the spinal technique and not due to an intrinsic...
متن کاملFeasibility of Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Under Spinal Anaesthesia
Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (LC) has been conventionally done under general anaesthesia (GA). Regional anaesthesia is usually preferred in patients where GA is contraindicated. In this study, we present experience of using spinal anaesthesia (SA) for LC with the contention that it is a good alternative to GA. Spinal anaesthesia was used in 134 patients in whom LC was planned. There was no modi...
