Evaluation of the effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy for spinal cord lesion in correlation with the moment of intervention.
Abstract: Experimental, controlled, animal study. To evaluate the functional effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy administered shortly, one day after, and no intervention (control) in standardized experimental spinal cord lesions in Wistar rats. São Paulo, Brazil. In...
Clinical Trial – Dose Finding Study for Continuous Spinal Anaesthesia
Fixation of fractured neck of femur is a common Orthopedic surgery. Anaesthesia can be
challenging in some cases like in haemodynamical unstable patients.
The investigators have evidence of minimum effective local anaesthetic dose (MLAD) in hip
replacement surgery but MLAD to achieve surgical anaesthesia for operative fixation of FNF is
still unknown.
A step-up/step-down methodology was used successfully in regional anaesthesia and also in
other areas of anaesthesia.
In pregnant ladies in whom spinal anaesthesia is performed on the side, significant
correlation exist between the vertebral length measured from cervical 7 to the iliac creast
and MLAD.
The investigators aim it was to determine the MLAD of hyperbaric 0.5% bupivacaine required
for Continuous spinal anaesthesia for the operative fixation of FNF.
Clinical Trial – Recovery of Bupivacaine or Bupivacaine-Lidocaine Spinal Anesthesia and Infiltration Anesthesia in Herniorrhaphy
The purpose of this study is the investigation of whether adding lidocaine to hyperbaric
bupivacaine could decrease the duration of bupivacaine spinal block and provide shorter
recovery and discharge times than local infiltration anesthesia in outpatient herniorrhaphy
procedures.
