Factors Causing Post-Anesthetic High Respiratory Resistance in Patients Undergoing Transurethral Resection of Bladder Tumors

چکیده
BACKGROUND In this study, we investigated the causes of high respiratory resistance that is observed after general anesthesia. We focused on respiratory resistance at 5 Hz (R5), which were measured preoperatively and postoperatively. METHODS Our prospective observational study enrolled 68 patients who underwent transurethral resection of bladder tumors from April to October 2015. Respiratory impedance was measured the day before surgery and immediately after general anesthesia. Participants were divided into 2 groups: Group L (postoperative R5 values < 4.0 cmH2O/L/sec; n = 33) and Group H (postoperative R5 values ≥ 4.0 cmH2O/L/sec; n = 35). Patient background, preoperative R5 values, endotracheal tube or subglottic devices, anaesthetic period, desflurane or sevoflurane, and endotracheal suctioning were compared. RESULTS Significant parameters were height, inhalation of desflurane, endotracheal suctioning, and preoperative R5 value. Logistic regression showed that endotracheal suctioning and a higher preoperative R5 level increased postoperative respiratory resistance (> 4 cmH2O/L/sec). CONCLUSIONS The endotracheal suctioning at the end of anesthesia influenced respiratory resistance more than use of the endotracheal tube and desflurane.

Risk factors for disconcordance between pre and post radical cystectomy stages.
PURPOSE To investigate the correlation between pre and post surgical staging in patients undergoing radical cystectomy (RC), and study the possibility of predicting their disconcordance. MATERIALS AND METHODS We reviewed medical records of 186 patients diagnosed with transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder, who had undergone RC between the years 2007 and 2010. We determined the correlation...
متن کاملTreatment and management of high-grade T1 bladder cancer: what should we do after second TUR?
Most T1 bladder cancers are high grade and have the potential to progress to muscle invasion and extravesical dissemination. Many studies reported that ∼50% of patients displayed residual tumors when a second transurethral resection was performed 2-6 weeks after the initial resection for patients who were diagnosed with T1 bladder cancer. Furthermore, muscle-invasive disease was detected by the...
متن کاملComparison of the effect of spinal anesthesia and general anesthesia on 5-year tumor recurrence rates after transurethral resection of bladder tumors
Non-muscle invasive bladder tumors are early-stage tumors with high recurrence rates. Transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURB) is performed under spinal or general anesthesia; however, the effect of the two anesthetic techniques on non-muscle invasive bladder tumor recurrence is unknown. Thus, we compared their effects on tumor recurrence rates five years after TURB. Data from 876 patien...

TUR is cited as the treatment of choice for relief of bladder outflow tract obstruction in the male, but bladder neck incision (BNI) is an acceptable alternative when the gland is smalI.1,2,3 Sixty cases of BNIfTUR have been reviewed (BNI=35, TUR=25) from March, 1986 to April, 1988. BNI was done when the glands were less than 30 gr , and when there was no clinical suspicion of malignancy t...
متن کاملClassic versus Inguinal Approach for Obturator Nerve Block in Transurethral Resection of Bladder Cancer under Spinal Anesthesia: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Single spinal anesthesia in transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) has been reported to be unable to prevent obturator nerve stimulation and adductor muscle contraction, which can cause complications like bladder perforation. The present study aimed to compare the effectiveness of the classic and inguinal approaches for obturator nerve block (ONB). Seventy patients with cancers of the...
