Mucopolysaccharidosis type IIIA - anesthesia approach, a case report ([VIRTUAL]) - Nov 25, 2021 - Abstract #Euroanaesthesia2021Euroanaesthesia_1222; The patient was sedated using 0,5 MAC of sevoflurane and 1 mcg/kg of fentanyl...After confirmation of a secure airway, induction of general anesthesia, guided by Bispectral index and neuromuscular blockade was performed using rocuronium...Preferably, a full diagnosis and comorbidities optimization should occur before an elective procedure. Early recognition of difficult airway allowing for timely planning and management is crucial for patient safety.Learning points: Difficult airway management has been reported so planning and preparation for all possible scenarios is important to assure the safety of our patients.

Journal: Oxygen desaturation and time burden during tracheobronchial endoscopy for suspected foreign body in toddlers. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 21, 2021 Initial admission to general hospitals (OR 0.23, 95% CI 0.06-0.86) and airway anaesthesia with topical lidocaine (OR 0.15, 95% CI 0.03-0.62) were associated with a reduced risk of high hypoxic burden...No postoperative neurological sequelae were found. The hypoxic burden approach, when applied in tracheobronchial endoscopy for suspected foreign body aspiration in toddlers, enabled the quantification of hypoxemia and the search for specific risk factors.

Review, Journal: Novel treatment modalities for painful diabetic neuropathy. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 7, 2021 Novel MONRI, SNRI and cannabinoid receptor agonists have shown some promise for neuropathic pain relief in human trials, but await regulatory approvals. However, most of the novel pharmacological agents (systemic or topical) require appropriately powered placebo-controlled studies for clinical usage in painful diabetic neuropathy.

Review, Journal: A Substantive Narrative Review on the Usage of Lidocaine in Cataract Surgery. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 7, 2021 Perhaps this standard could change over time as it is generally known that using intracameral injections in conjunction with topical anesthesia produces better patient outcomes. The authors find that although anesthetics and surgical treatment for cataracts are generally beneficial for patients, there are still many adjustments that could be implemented to enhance patient outcomes.

Awake fibreoptic intubation in a difficult airway with tracheal stenosis – is “Ketodex” a player? ([VIRTUAL]) - Oct 31, 2021 - Abstract #Euroanaesthesia2021Euroanaesthesia_806; Many sedation regimens for AFOI including combination of dexmedetomidine and ketamine infusions (“Ketodex”) have been published...Upper airway topicalization was achieved with 2% lidocaine...Learning points: Ketodex plus topical anaesthesia provided good conditions for AFOI with minimal side effects making it a safe and effective strategy in patients with difficult airway predictors. Further studies are needed to support this hypothesis and identify the best dosage regimen.

Review, Journal: Comprehensive Review of Topical Analgesics for Chronic Pain. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 27, 2021 Topical analgesics are a relatively benign treatment for chronic pain conditions including neuropathic pain, musculoskeletal, and myofascial pain. There is evidence to support the use of topical NSAIDs, high concentration topical capsaicin, and topical lidocaine for various painful conditions.

Journal: Effect of sensory blockade and rate of sensory stimulation on local heating induced axon reflex response in facial skin. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 27, 2021 We assessed CVC during fast (1 °C/30s) and slow (1 °C/10 min) local heating to 43 °C in both NaV inhibition (topical 2.5% lidocaine/prilocaine) and control conditions...Slower sensory afferent activation rate eliminated the axon reflex response in facial and non-glabrous skin, but topical sensory blockade did not block axon reflex responses in flushing-prone cheek skin. Thus, slower heating protocols are needed to abate facial, particularly cheek, axon reflex responses.

Clinical, Journal: Efficacy of Intra-Operative Topical Wound Anaesthesia to Mitigate Piglet Castration Pain-A Large, Multi-Centred Field Trial. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 25, 2021 There was a significant reduction in nociceptive motor and vocal response during castration and in the post-operative pain-related behaviour response in Tri-Solfen-treated compared to untreated piglets, in the first 30 min following castration. Although not addressing pain of skin incision, Tri-Solfen is effective to mitigate subsequent acute castration-related pain in piglets under commercial production conditions.
