  • The Effects of Anesthesia Depth Monitoring on Postoperative Recovery and Cognitive Functions in the Geriatric Patient Population

    Perioperative cognitive decline and delirium occur more frequently in the geriatric population undergoing surgery. International guidelines recommend monitoring anesthesia depth to reduce the risk of postoperative cognitive dysfunction. Anesthesia depth is commonly measured using non-invasive electroencephalography (EEG)-based methods, such as the Bispectral Index (BIS). Previous studies have predominantly utilized processed EEG monitors that generate numerical values for tracking anesthesia depth. However, in this study, anesthesia depth will be monitored using both the standard numerical BIS index and the Density Spectral Array (DSA) mode, an advanced feature of the BIS device. To date, no studies have simultaneously examined BIS and DSA modes in relation to cognitive function and the recovery process. The use of advanced monitoring techniques may serve as a valuable resource for future research, particularly in optimizing anesthetic management for geriatric patients with reduced cognitive reserve. This study aims to evaluate the effects of different intraoperative anesthesia depth monitoring approaches, including hemodynamic monitoring, numerical BIS values, and DSA functions. The primary objective is to determine the optimal anesthesia monitoring strategy that minimizes intraoperative hypotension, burst suppression, and postoperative delirium.

  • Development in Children Diagnosed with Congenital Muscular Torticollis

    Congenital muscular torticollis (CMT) is a common postural deformity that occurs shortly after birth and is typically characterized by ipsilateral cervical lateral flexion and contralateral cervical rotation due to unilateral shortening of the sternocleidomastoid (SCM) muscle. It is a non-neurological postural disorder that usually affects 3% to 16% of infants. Theories such as intrauterine stenosis, vascular causes, fibrosis of the peripartum hemorrhage area, difficult labor, and primary myopathy of the SCM muscle have been put forward for its causes. In tissue samples taken after surgery, edema, degeneration of muscle fibers, and fibrosis have been reported. It is thought that CMT affects the muscles as well as head and facial development, causing various asymmetries, delays in gross motor functions, and disorders in posture and balance control. A bent neck position can cause plagiocephaly. Characteristic craniofacial deformities include asymmetry in the brow and cheekbones, deviation of the chin and nose tip, inferior orbital abnormality on the affected side, asymmetry in ear placement, and shortening of the vertical dimension of the ipsilateral face. In later periods, it has been shown that it may cause asymmetry in the use of the upper extremities, delay in gross motor functions, and effects on posture and balance control in children. It is thought that head position may affect the shoulder, rib cage, and abdominal muscles, which may have a negative effect on posture control and movement development, sensory-motor coordination, and cause gross motor function retardation. For these reasons, children with congenital muscular torticollis should be evaluated comprehensively in the early period. This study, which was planned to evaluate the motor development and sensory processing of children with CMT, was designed according to the lack of literature.

  • Transversalis Fascia Plane vs Ilioinguinal and Iliohypogastric Nerve Block for the Treatment of CPIP

    Chronic post-herniorrhaphy inguinal pain (CPIP) after inguinal hernia surgery significantly affects quality of life and daily activities. The incidence of this condition ranges from 15% to 53% and its management is often challenging. CPIP is defined as pain lasting more than three months and can be diagnosed if no organic cause can be found to explain the pain at the end of this period. There are various methods in the treatment of CPIP, including medical therapy, nerve blocks and surgical intervention. The inguinal region is mainly innervated by the ilioinguinal (II) and iliohypogastric (IH) nerves. These nerves are the most commonly damaged structures after inguinal hernia surgery. However, the II and IH nerves can be easily blocked in isolation throughout their entire course in the groin area or in the abdominal wall at different injection sites using fascial plane blocks such as transversalis fascia plan block (TFP). These blocks are frequently preferred because of their ease of application and wide analgesic effects. Therefore, studies investigating the efficacy of fascial blocks that provide ease of application are increasing. Although TFP and II-IH blocks have been used in the treatment of acute postoperative inguinal pain, they have been used in a limited number of studies for CPIP; however, no study has compared the efficacy and advers effect rates of these methods. The primary aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of these two treatment modalities. The secondary aim is to determine the incidence of adverse events associated with US-guided TFP and II-IH nerve block therapy. A total of at least 80 patients will be enrolled for comparison, 40 patients in each group. The NRS score will be compared both within and between groups before, 1 month after and 3 months after treatment.

  • Hand-10 Questionnaire in Children with Unilateral Cerebral Palsy

    The Hand-10 questionnaire was developed to evaluate upper extremity problems. It is a clear, short, and visual questionnaire that the individual fills out on their own. It includes shoulder, elbow, wrist, and hand functions. The developers of the questionnaire stated that it can be easily applied to children due to its visual explanations. Pictorial materials make the survey more understandable for the elderly and children. Visual content makes participation more enjoyable, especially for children. Due to its visual content, Hand10 has been proven to be applicable to the elderly and children. For its high accuracy, it is recommended to analyze its validity in specific diseases in previous studies. However, there are only two studies to date that have shown its validity for patients with lateral epicondylitis and trigger finger. Due to its clarity and visuals, it can make a significant contribution to the assessment methods used especially in children with cerebral palsy. Therefore, investigating its validity and reliability in children with cerebral palsy can provide support to the literature and professionals working in this field.

  • Sleep Characteristics in Late Premature Infants

    Late preterm infants are defined as those born between 34 and 36 weeks and 6 days of gestational age. Although the medical literature places significant emphasis on extremely low birth weight and extremely preterm infants, late preterm infants are also at risk, with mortality rates three times higher than those of term infants. Born with lungs and brains that are not yet fully matured, late preterm infants may experience complications due to immaturity. Although they often appear healthier and more mature than they are, late preterm infants show significant differences from term infants (born between 37 and 42 weeks of gestation), particularly because their brain development has not yet been completed. During the final weeks of gestation (34-40 weeks), critical developmental processes occur in the brain, including the formation of synaptic connections, myelination, and the development of cortical folds. Compared to normal term neonates, the late preterm brain appears 20% to 30% smaller, less developed, and less myelinated on magnetic resonance imaging. The sensory system is shaped immediately after birth by both the quantity and type of sensory experiences and continues to develop throughout life. In preterm infants, sensory processing has been associated with immaturity at birth, length of stay in the neonatal intensive care unit, white matter injury, and caregiver education. Sleep is a critical factor for the healthy development of processes such as brain maturation, motor planning, postural control, and sensory integration, especially during infancy. Sleep is closely linked to brain development and infant behavior, and disruptions in sleep patterns can have profound and long-term effects on an infant's overall health, growth, and well-being in early life. Moreover, sleep plays a crucial role in the formation of persistent neural circuits necessary for early sensory development and the maturation of primary sensory systems in infants. The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between sleep characteristics and motor development and sensory processing skills in late preterm infants (born between 34 weeks and 36 weeks + 6 days of gestation) who are between 6 and 12 months of corrected age. It is thought that sleep problems, which are frequently observed in preterm infants, may have significant effects on motor and sensory development. In this context, the primary objective of the study is to elucidate how sleep patterns and characteristics are associated with motor and sensory development in late preterm infants, and to provide scientific evidence to inform early intervention programs.

  • Investigation of the Development of Infants with a History of Colic

    Infantile colic (IC) is a condition characterized by incessant crying and restlessness in healthy, normally growing infants. Prolonged and intense crying in an otherwise healthy infant is a significant challenge for families. Infantile colic was first described by Wessel nearly 50 years ago. According to Wessel, episodes of crying and restlessness that last three hours a day, at least three days a week, for a minimum of three weeks are classified as infantile colic. The long-term effects of IC include an increased risk of behavioral problems in children. A meta-analysis found that children with a history of excessive crying are more likely to develop general behavioral problems, internalizing problems (such as anxiety, depression, or withdrawal), and externalizing problems (such as aggression or disruptive behavior). Additionally, these difficulties are exacerbated by adverse family environments, including parental stress or poor maternal mental health. As these infants approach preschool age, they may struggle with sustaining attention, engaging in reciprocal play interactions, and tolerating change and separation. The first two years of life are a critical period for supporting infant development, as brain growth and neural plasticity progress rapidly. When children reach 10-15 months of age and begin exploring their environment through walking and trial-and-error experiences, assessing sensory processing skills becomes particularly important. At this stage, children actively expand their motor repertoire, especially while developing skills such as crawling and walking. However, a review of existing studies reveals a lack of evaluations conducted during the toddler, preschool, and school-age periods. Furthermore, most studies focus primarily on behavioral problems and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). For this reason, 10-15-month-old infants were included in this study to assess early-stage development.

  • EEG-Guided Sedation in ERCP Procedures

    Volunteers in the ASA (American Society of Anaesthesiology) I-II-III risk group, aged between 18-65 years, of both sexes, who will undergo ERCP procedure under elective conditions with routine preoperative examination will be included. Before the procedure, the study and all possible risks will be explained to all patients and informed consent will be obtained. Patient's age, weight, ASA value, chronic diseases will be recorded before the procedure. Patients will be divided into two groups. All patients will be routinely monitorised for ECG, non-invasive arterial blood pressure, SpO2, respiratory rate, end-tidal CO2 measurement. These values will be noted at five minute intervals. All patients will receive oxygen at 2 L/min through a nasal cannula. In the case group, in addition to routine monitoring, PSI value measurement will be performed by applying PSI electrodes after wiping the forehead with an alcohol sponge and drying it. All patients will be induced with Propofol at a dose of 1 mg/kg and maintained by infusion at a dose of 50-150 mcg/kg/min according to the patient's need. All procedures will be performed by a single gastroenterologist. In addition, an assessment will be made every five minutes according to the Ramsey Sedation Scale (RSS). An RSS of 2-3 is considered as light sedation and 4 as deep sedation. The duration of the procedure, duration of anaesthesia, total amount of anaesthetic given, time to awakening from anaesthesia (time until Ramsey Score: 1), recovery time (time until Aldrete Score: 10) will be noted.
