Abstract:

Pain in vascular disease is often severe. Atherosclerosis is the commonest cause of ischaemic pain. Angioplasty, stents, and surgical revascularization should be attempted to treat the underlying cause. Pain relief is also aimed at neuropathic and sympathetic components of pain. In end stage ischaemic disease, amputation may be necessary often leading to long-term pain.

Abstract:

The resuscitation of the child with burns poses a number of challenges to the anesthesiologist. It is vital that there is a systematic approach to managing the airway, breathing, and circulation. This requires an understanding of the pathophysiology of burn injury. Particular attention must be paid to the timing and technique of securing the airway. Appropriate vascular access and pain management are also of high priority in the burned child.

Abstract:

Inherited epidermolysis bullosa comprises a group of rare, serious conditions affecting multiple organ systems. While generally referred to as a dermatologic condition, any organ with an epithelial surface is affected, leading to serious extracutaneous manifestations. These have wide-ranging implications for anesthetic management, including airway management, vascular access, skin protection, and effective pain control. A successful and safe patient experience requires thoughtful evaluation, communication with a multidisciplinary team, anesthetic planning, intraoperative management, and postop

Abstract:

Sensory symptoms are the most common symptoms in neuromuscular clinics, yet it is difficult to capture them in videos unless they have a very specific pattern and/or they are associated with objective loss of sensation. Distal sensory loss is a common neuropathic finding. Sensory neuropathies may also present with ataxia or severe pain. Multifocal sensory loss is usually vascular (vasculitis, diabetic amyotrophy). Intercostal pain and numbness are due to radiculopathy (diabetic, zoster, or compressive radiculopathy). Thoracic and abdominal radiculopathies are often misdiagnoses as acute corona

Abstract:

Emergency surgery in the elderly is needed even if elective surgery would not be considered. Often, it is due to trauma or to intra-abdominal, vascular, or neurosurgical emergencies. The time from onset of the cause of the emergency to operative treatment is directly related to complications and death. Delay to accurate diagnosis is common and may be masked by delirium. Sepsis, pain hypotension, and metabolic disorders may all trigger delirium. Resuscitation and optimization should be concurrent with operative management. Important factors considered include the possible cause of a fall (cardi

Advancing vascular sheaths, catheters, balloons, stent grafts, or drainage catheters can prove difficult in tight or tortuous anatomy, leading to prolonged procedure and fluoroscopy time. Overcoming the static forces of friction requires greater magnitude of force compared to the kinetic forces of friction. Static forces of friction can result in catheter or device kinking, particularly in tight or tortuous anatomy. By applying slow, steady force (as opposed to multiple isolated applications of force) in a manner described in this chapter, one can advance a device in a slow and steady manner,

Four of the main causes of thoracic spinal stenosis are ossification of the ligamentum flavum, ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament, thoracic disc herniation, and thoracic spondylosis. Even rarer secondary causes include generalized skeletal disorders, metabolic and endocrine disorders of the spine, neoplastic lesions, and vascular malformations.

Screening involves testing asymptomatic individuals who have risk factors, or individuals who are in the early stages of a disease, in order to decide whether further investigation, clinical intervention, or treatment is warranted. Therefore, screening is classically a primary prevention strategy which aims to capture disease early in its course, but it can also involve secondary prevention in individuals with established disease. In the words of Geoffrey Rose, screening is a ‘population’ strategy. Examples of screening programmes are blood pressure monitoring in primary care to screen for hyp
