EVALUATION OF THE EFFECTS OF CONTI- NUOUS PREPERITONEAL WOUND INFILTRATION ON POSTOPERATIVE RESPIRATORY PERFORMANCE IN PATIENTS WHO UNDERWENT MAJOR A…

2013

Aim. According to the recent literature, continuous pre-perito- neal wound infiltration with local anaesthetics (CPWI) is an effective analgesic therapy in patients who undergo major abdominal surgery 1. Although it is not inferior to other com- monly used techniques in postoperative analgesia, many studies report conflictive results about its efficacy compared to them 2. The aim of our study was to evaluate the effects of CPWI on the postoperative respiratory performance in patients after major abdominal surgery. Materials and methods. From June 2011 to July 2012, a total of 14 patients have been evaluated. All patients were treated using the protocol generally used in our Department for t…

[Diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of "myocardial bridging": state of the art and unresolved issues].

2013

The current gold standard for the diagnosis of myocardial bridging is conventional coronary angiography; however, it shows only indirect signs of the disease, due to the systolic compression of the artery caused by the myocardial bridge with narrowing of the lumen and diastolic relaxation. On the other hand, computed tomography coronary angiography, even though exposing to radiation, clearly demonstrates the intramural course, the overlying muscular bands and the surrounding tissues also in asymptomatic patients and in absence of systolic compression. The prognosis of patients with myocardial bridge is usually good, but further studies are needed to evaluate the long-term prognosis of these…
