Analgesia multimodal y anestesia regional

2017

Resumen La analgesia multimodal permite conseguir una analgesia de calidad y con menos efectos secundarios gracias al uso de diferentes analgesicos o tecnicas analgesicas. La anestesia regional juega un papel fundamental para conseguir este objetivo. Las diferentes tecnicas de anestesia regional, que incluyen tanto los bloqueos perifericos como centrales, bien en dosis unica, bien en perfusion continua, contribuyen a modular los estimulos nociceptivos que acceden a nivel central.

Resumen Los avances en la monitorizacion cerebral multiparametrica han permitido ahondar en el conocimiento de la fisiopatologia del traumatismo craneoencefalico, y en como la terapeutica disponible puede modularla.

Receiving Continuous Antibiotic Prophylaxis

2020

Abstract Continuous antibiotic prophylaxis represents an initial management strategy for decreasing the risk of urinary tract infections in children with vesicoureteral reflux. A significant number of cases resolve spontaneously in time, reason for which continuous antibiotic prophylaxis is not required in every patient with this disorder. It is mandatory to select the patients who need continuous antibiotic prophylaxis according to their risk group. We do not have a lot of scientific evidences about what is better or not for these patients, but the main objective for the case management is to maintain the renal function, by minimizing the risk of pyelonephritis, renal scars and its consequ…

Periodontal Diseases in Diabetes Melitus - A Two Way Link? A Review of Literature

2020

Abstract Numerous studies in the last decades report a frequent association of marginal periodontal disease with some systemic metabolic disorders, such as diabetes or obesity. The prevalence of these diseases is growing alarmingly both globally and in our country. Recent data from the literature confirm that advanced forms of periodontal disease can influence the evolution of type 2 diabetes. This may provide a premise for better glycemic control.
