  • Respiratory Effects of Flow-Controlled Ventilation and Jet Ventilation in Patients Undergoing Laryngotracheal Surgery

    This study is a randomized, controlled, assessor blind, monocentric study. A new ventilation mode, called Flow Controlled Ventilation (FCV), has been suggested to minimize the amount of dissipated energy in the lungs and potentially could be protective during mechanical ventilation. FCV is unique in creating a stable gas flow into and also out of the patient's lungs to generate inspiration and expiration respectively. The FCV ventilation mode by its design allows the use of an ultrathin endotracheal tube with an inflatable cuff to secure the airways for ventilation. Therefore FCV offers several new surgical options for the treatment during laryngeal and tracheal surgery where the standard approach is usually the use of high-frequency jet ventilation (HFJV). The limitations of HFJV are however the lack of airway protection, limited monitoring of the respiratory variables and potential carbon dioxide (CO2) accumulation. Participants for this study will be recruited at the University Hospitals of Geneva, scheduled for laryngotracheal surgery under general anesthesia. A total of 50 patients will be enrolled and randomly assigned into 2 groups: Group FCV (Flow controlled ventilation) and Group HFJV (high-frequency jet ventilation). Measurements of functional residual capacity (FRC) and lung clearance index (LCI) will be performed in patients with a nitrogen multiple breath washout method, before and approximately 1 hour after surgery. Similarly, respiratory system resistance (R) and respiratory reactance (X) will be measured at the same time by using the Forced Oscillation Technique. Relevance: There are no studies that addressed the value of flow controlled ventilation in terms of lung function parameters (FRC and LCI) and lung mechanics (R, X) in comparison to high-frequency jet ventilation in patients undergoing upper airway surgery.

  • Local Anesthesia for Facial Fractures

    Effective pain management is critical to successful postoperative care and is known to decrease patient morbidity, incurred patient and hospital costs, and length of hospital stay. Pain and nausea after surgery for traumatic facial fractures can limit patients' early morbidity, oral intake, and ability to communicate. The study is a double-blind randomized, placebo controlled trial examining the impact of perioperative bupivacaine nerve block on PACU recovery metrics. Patients with operative mandibular or midface fractures are randomized to receive either bupivacaine or saline injections prior to the anesthesia emergence. The primary outcome measure is the amount of opioid that patients receive in PACU in morphine milligram equivalent (MMEs). The purpose of the study is to define whether a perioperative bupivacaine nerve block results in a decrease in the amounts of opioids and antiemetics that patients receive in PACU after CMF trauma surgery.

  • Regional Anesthesia for Breast Surgery

    Patients scheduled for mastecotmy with or without axillary dissection, will be randomized to receive preoperative either an ultrasound-guided double space paravertebral block or a PECSII + parasternal block. In both groups, blocks will be performed with 20 ml of ropivacaine 0.75%, plus ropivacaine 0.375% 10 ml for parasternal block only. All the patients also received a general anesthesia induced by propofol and esmeron for endotracheal intubation and desflurane for maintaining. Sensory block by ice and pinprick test application and maximum spread after 40' from LA injection will be registered. Postoperative, all patients will receive a morphine PCA, ketorolac 30 mg/12h and paracetamol 1g each 8h. Morphine consumption will be registered. Patients will follow at 6, 12, 24 months for persistent postoperative surgical pain (PPSP) and cancer recurrence.

  • Methadone Anesthesia For Kidney Transplant Receptors

    Despite recent developments in postoperative pain control, many patients still experience moderate or severe pain after surgery. It is estimated that severe postoperative pain occurs in 20 to 40% of surgical procedures. With the development of kidney transplant services, a better study of the intraoperative analgesia used in this procedure and its impact on the postoperative is necessary. The management of postoperative pain in renal transplant recipients is essential to improve the quality of postoperative care, and may even impact the prognosis of the renal graft. One of the strategies to improve pain control in the perioperative period is the intraoperative use of intravenous methadone, given its pharmacokinetic profile. Methadone is an opioid agonist of µ receptors, it is also a Glutamate antagonist by blocking the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor, and inhibits the reuptake of serotonin and norepinephrine. When administered in doses of 20 to 30mg, the analgesia generated by methadone can last from 24 to 36 hours. There is also evidence that the use of methadone in doses of 0.2 to 0.3 mg / kg is not associated with a higher incidence of side effects when compared to other opioids with short or intermediate duration of action, such as fentanyl, sufentanil and morphine. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of using intraoperative methadone to reduce postoperative pain in patients undergoing kidney transplant surgery (recipients). Patients will be submitted to standardized general anesthesia, and the opioid used in anesthetic induction will be methadone or fentanyl with additional boluses if necessary. After extubation, Fentanyl will be installed in an intravenous analgesia pump controlled by the patient. Differences between groups regarding opioid consumption, pain scores, side effects and patient satisfaction will be assessed

  • Spinal Anesthesia for Robotic Assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy

    Patients were allocated to either intrathecal injection of bupivacaine/morphine or a sham spinal procedure. All patients were placed in a sitting position and the skin over the lumbar region of the back was disinfected with chlorhexidine and draped sterile. In the intervention group the skin was infiltrated with 5 mL of lidocaine 10 mg/mL and a sterile 27-gauge pencil-point needle (Pajunk, GA, USA) was subsequently entered into the intrathecal space at the L2-3 or L3-4 interspace. After obtaining return of cerebrospinal fluid, hyperbaric bupivacaine 5 mg/mL 1,5 mL (7,5 mg) and morphine 200 µg/mL, 0.5 mL (100 µg) was injected intrathecally. Patients in the placebo group received an identical treatment as the patients in the intervention group, except for the intrathecal injection. After the skin was infiltrated with 5 mL of lidocaine 10 mg/mL, the attending anesthesiologist pressed one finger at the skin and talked as if she was giving an intrathecal injection at the L3-4 interspace. All patients were treated by the same anesthesiologist (MA).

  • Mepivacaine vs Bupivacaine Spinal Anesthesia for TKA

    The purpose of this study is to evaluate the two different spinal anesthesia agents, mepivacaine and bupivacaine, and determine whether there are significant differences in their effects on readiness for same day discharge following a total knee arthroplasty. This study is a prospective, double-blind prospective randomized controlled trial comparing mepivacaine and bupivacaine spinal anesthesia for same-day discharge readiness following a unilateral primary elective TKA procedure. Study data will be collected during the patient's hospital stay for their TKA procedure, and the primary outcome of same-day discharge readiness will be assessed the day of surgery. Patients will also be contacted via telephone or RedCap at Day 3 post-op to assess for any complications, current level of pain, and pain medication utilization. In this double-blind (patients and assessors) study, the patients will be randomly assigned 1:1 to receive one of the following: mepivacaine 1.5% (4.5ml, 67.5mg) or 2% (3.4ml, 67.5mg), (depending on availability from pharmacy) or hyperbaric bupivacaine 0.75% (1.4ml, 10.5mg) from the spinal kit. Randomization will be computer-generated in RedCap. These doses are the currently the standard doses used for our total knee arthroplasty patients. Patients with a height of 74 inches or greater or with body mass index of 35kg/m2 or greater will be given an extra 0.5ml of local anesthetic. The intraoperative anesthesia team will not be blinded to the group assignment, but patients, surgeons, and assessors are blinded. All patients will receive the standard preoperative multimodal analgesia, consisting of celecoxib 400mg po and acetaminophen 1gm po. Research staff will unblind the study investigators immediately if requested for any potential safety concerns.
