Introduction: Nowadays, spinal anesthesia is associated with few complications in many surgical practices especially the elective caesarean which is taken as a suitable replacement for general anesthesia. Different drugs are used for spinal anesthesia. This study aims to compare lidocaine 5% in combination with meperidine 5% plus lidocaine 5% for spinal anesthesia in non-emergency cesarean pati...

BACKGROUND Several factors, such as compromised cardiopulmonary function, anticoagulative therapy, or anatomical deformity in the elderly, prevent general anesthesia and neuraxial blockade from being conducted for total knee replacement arthroplasty (TKRA). We investigated the efficacy of femoral/sciatic nerve block with lateral femoral cutaneous nerve block (FSNB) as an alternative procedure i...

objective: to compare the effect of intrathecal midazolam versus neostigmine added to lidocaine on the duration of sensory block and the duration of postoperative pain relief in women undergoing colporaphy in spinal anesthesia. materials and methods: in this double blind clinical trial we evaluated 60women (asa) i,ii that were candidate to elective colporaphy. the patients were randomly divided...

Acupuncture, as a healing art in traditional Chinese medicine, has been widely used to treat various diseases. In the history of acupuncture anesthesia, in the past decades, mechanisms of acupuncture analgesia has been widely investigated, and in recent years, acupuncture protection on organ functions has attracted great interest. This review summarized the research progress on mechanisms of ac...

An alfentanil infusion was used to produce analgesia and sedation for patients undergoing extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy with the Dornier HM-4 lithotripter. This was compared to general and epidural anesthesia in a retrospective review of 197 consecutive patients. Total care time, anesthesia time, and recovery room time were shorter for the alfentanil analgesia/sedation group. The incide...

The PEC block is a new and innovative technique for the various perioperative procedures. It provides analgesia anesthesia breast other chest surgeries. Since evolution in USG guided nerve became famous due to easy approach very good providing analgesia. There are two ways types provide discussed this review.

Background: Although various anesthetic techniques can be used in different kinds of surgeries, spinal anesthesia has received considerable attention for the lower abdomen and lower extremities surgeries and cesarean section. This study aimed at comparing the effect of adding epinephrine 1:1000 and 1:10000 to lidocaine and fentanyl in spinal anesthesia on the prolongation of paralysis, analgesi...
