Ambulante und tageschirurgische Eingriffe

2003

Ambulatory surgical care is intended to save healthcare expenditure from the economical viewpoint. From the patients point of view significant advantages as well as specific disadvantages of ambulatory surgery are known. The increase in the volume and complexity of procedures provided in an ambulatory setting are driven by improvements in anesthesia and surgical technique as well as by changes in financing and reimbursement. Therefore careful quality control and scientific evidence for the safety of increasingly used complex surgical procedures for higher risk patients is essential. Reducing the surgical trauma by minimally invasive surgical techniques and very good controllability by moder…

Scoresysteme in der Notfallmedizin?

1994

The primary goals of scoring in emergency medicine are grading of the severity of the patient's condition, measurement of diagnostic and therapeutic efforts, forecasting the outcome, and support in decision making on triage and therapy. Scores can also be used as tools for measuring efficacy and controlling quality. There has been less experience with use of scoring systems to estimate quality of life. The ability to make a prognosis in an individual case is the most critical point; a score may support decisions on therapy in very specific situations only. Scores for use in emergency medicine should be based on physiological parameters, universally applicable and suitable for use throughout…

The use of a questionnaire for improvement of postoperative analgesia after transurethral resection of the prostate

2003

Abstract Background : Postoperative analgesic studies with methods like i.v. patient controlled analgesia (i.v. PCA) or epidural analgesia have reported effective pain relief after major surgery, also after urologic cancer surgery. In contrast, systematic results after minor urologic surgery are widely unknown, although the pain intensities may be high for a short time. The aim of the study was to evaluate the usefulness of a pain questionnaire as a measurement tool of postoperative analgesic quality after transurethral resection of the prostate (TUR-P). Methods : A questionnaire of the American Pain Society (APS) for quality assurance of postoperative pain therapy was adapted to estimate t…

Ketamin/Midazolam zur Analgosedierung erwies sich in bezug auf Kreislauf und Atmung gegenuber Pentazocin/Midazolam uberlegen [23]. Diese Studie sollte klaren, ob 0,25 oder 0,5 mg/kg KG Ketamin, 0,075 mg/kg KG Midazolam, unter den Aspekten Anxiolyse, Analgesie, Sedierung und Amnesie eine Alternative zu Pentazocin/Midazolam ist. Kontrollgruppe (KG): Lokalanasthesie (LA) mit Articain 4%/Adrenalinzusatz 1:200.000 (n=35); Testgruppe P/M: LA und 0,40 mg/kg KG Pentazocin/0,075 mg/kg KG Midazolam i.v.

The Orogastric Tube Guide® as a novel strategy for gastric tube insertion: a prospective, randomized controlled clinical trial

2020

BACKGROUND Gastric tube insertion, either orally or nasally, is daily practice in anesthesia and intensive care. "Blind" insertion represents the common conventional method and is associated with low first-pass success and frequent complications. This trial aimed to evaluate the novel gastric tube guide as a rigid conduit in regard to insertion success rate, time required and associated complications versus the conventional "blind" insertion method. We hypothesized that the insertion success rate is higher using the Orogastric tube guide. METHODS This trial was approved by ethics committee prior to patient recruitment. In a randomized order, anesthetists performed oral insertion of a gastri…
