Journal: Use of transversus abdominis plane block to decrease pain scores and narcotic use following robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy. (Pubmed Central) - Jul 28, 2021 This was in addition to an already established pain management regiment, which included preoperative PO acetaminophen (650 mg), celecoxib (200 mg), and tolterodine ER (4 mg)...Intra-operative narcotic use was decreased in the TAP group for each of the opioids that were used: fentanyl 177.5 vs 205mcg (p = 0.001), morphine 5.5 vs 10 mg (p = 0.000), and hydromorphone 0.75 vs 1.75 mg (p = 0.001)...Oral oxycodone/acetaminophen (5 mg/325 mg) was used for pain control on the surgical floor and on average TAP patients received less, 2.4 vs 5 tabs (p = 0.000)...TAP blocks as part of a perioperative pain management protocol can be utilized during RALPs to decrease patient pain scores at two different time intervals, immediately post-operative and 24 h after surgery. Patients also ambulate sooner following surgery and require a decreased amount of narcotics during the intra-operative and post-operative periods. TAP blocks are quick, effective, and do not add a significant amount of OR time to RALPs.

Review, Journal: Microinduction of Buprenorphine/Naloxone: A Review of the Literature. (Pubmed Central) - Jul 28, 2021 This manuscript provides a review of the existing literature to help clinicians better understand the approaches to microdosing of buprenorphine in various clinical settings and populations.

The rapid expansion of opioid prescribing was accompanied by increasing misuse and mortality. Interventions such as prescription drug monitoring programs (PDMP), increased law enforcement and abuse deterrent formulations have been followed by decreases in misuse of most opioid analgesics.

Preclinical, Journal: Escalation and reinstatement of fentanyl self-administration in male and female rats. (Pubmed Central) - Jul 28, 2021 Multi-center prospective studies are recommended to evaluate sedative practices, delirium, and its effects on neurodevelopment. Among the different reinstatement tests assessed, escalation of fentanyl SA increased only drug-primed reinstatement, suggesting a limited relationship between escalation of drug intake and craving (reinstatement) for OUD.

Journal: Acyclic Cucurbituril Featuring Pendant Cyclodextrins. (Pubmed Central) - Jul 27, 2021 The goal of the study is to deepen the cavity of the receptor to allow β-CD complexation of moieties on the guest (especially fentanyl) that protrude from the cavity of the primary acyclic CB[n] binding site to enhance binding affinity and deliver new supramolecular antidotes for fentanyl intoxication...Compared to tetraanionic hosts M1 and M2, the dianionic hosts H1 and H2 are less potent receptors which reflects the importance of electrostatic (ion-ion and ion-dipole) interactions in this series of hosts. The work highlights the challenges inherent in the optimization of binding affinity of hosts as potential supramolecular antidotes.

Journal: Morphine and fentanyl exposure during therapeutic hypothermia does not impair neurodevelopment. (Pubmed Central) - Jul 27, 2021 Higher cumulative opioid doses in TH-treated infants with HIE was not associated with worse Bayley-3 scores at 18-24 months of age. The Bristol cooling program was funded by the Children's Medical Research Charity SPARKS managing donations for our research from the UK and US, the UK Moulton Foundation, the Lærdal Foundation for Acute Medicine in Norway and the Norwegian Research Council (JKG).

Journal: Antimicrobial effects of fentanyl and bupivacaine (Pubmed Central) - Jul 24, 2021 However, when the fact that fentanyl antagonized the antimicrobial effects of LAs in the studies is taken into account, it might be though that it contributes to an increase in infection complications. When the fact that fentanyl citrate, which was used in our study and included hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide as protective agents, broadened the antimicrobial effect spectrum of LAs, had no antagonistic effect and showed a synergistic antimicrobial effect against E. Coli is considered, we are of the opinion that the addition of fentanyl to LAs would contribute significantly in preventing the increasing regional anesthesia infection complications.

Review, Journal: Transdermal buprenorphine for acute postoperative pain: a systematic review (Pubmed Central) - Jul 24, 2021 When the fact that fentanyl citrate, which was used in our study and included hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide as protective agents, broadened the antimicrobial effect spectrum of LAs, had no antagonistic effect and showed a synergistic antimicrobial effect against E. Coli is considered, we are of the opinion that the addition of fentanyl to LAs would contribute significantly in preventing the increasing regional anesthesia infection complications. Although more studies are necessary, initial results show that transdermal buprenorphine seems to be an effective and safe opioid choice for management of acute postoperative pain.

Clinical, Journal: Association between sedation level and mortality of intensive care patients on mechanical ventilation. (Pubmed Central) - Jul 23, 2021 Daily interruption of sedation guided by the Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale assists in the control of sedation, which favors the treatment and recovery of patients and guides nurses' decision making. However, in this study, it was not configured as an independent factor for predicting mortality in intensive care.

[VIRTUAL] CLINICAL PRACTICE OF SPIRAL ENTEROSCOPY (SPE) IN THE LEARNING PHASE OF A REAL-WORLD SETTING (Poster Exhibition) - Jul 20, 2021 - Abstract #UEGW2021UEGW_5138; This can partly be explained by the high degree of difficulty (average 2.4 out of 3) and various comorbidities of the pts.; however, at the beginning SpE requires a similar timing as for a DBE/SBE in the endoscopy unit and this is in contrary to actual published SpE trials. Due to the high need for sedation, we currently consider performing SpE under intubation anesthesia which is no prerequisite for DBE or SBE.

[VIRTUAL] A NOVEL ONE-DAY VIRTUAL-LIVE HYBRID TRAINING COURSE IS FEASIBLE AND HAS A POSITIVE IMPACT ON COLONOSCOPY KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS OF EXPERIENCED ENDOSCOPY TRAINEES (Poster Exhibition) - Jul 20, 2021 - Abstract #UEGW2021UEGW_5021; Colonoscopy KPIs were assessed on trainee-performed colonoscopies [unsedated or midazolam/fentanyl sedation] for 3 weeks prior and 4 weeks after the training. Standardization of colonoscopy training is critical to the consistent attainment of KPIs by practicing colonoscopists and improving patient experience [3].This is the first demonstration of delivering live colonoscopy training remotely: an approach acceptable to trainees and trainers that has a positive impact on KPIs.Pending larger studies focused on efficacy, this approach has the potential to create a standardized curriculum for colonoscopy training removing the barriers of travel and allowing expanded exposure to consciously-competent expert trainers.
