The evaluation of upper leg traction in lateral position for pediatric caudal block

Saudi Journal of Anaesthesia, 2011
Purpose: A well-functioning caudal block is an excellent adjunct to general anesthesia, but misplaced injection results in poor analgesia as well as possibility of serious morbidity.

Caveolin‐1 enriched apoptotic bodies derived from oral hard palate orchestrate bone remodeling to treat heterotopic ossification

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Downregulated CAV1 in HO is restored via apoptotic bodies from PMSCs, which reprogram bone remodeling by delivering CAV1 to target cells, highlighting the therapeutic role of EV subtypes in heterotopic ossification. Abstract Heterotopic ossification (HO) is a pathological process characterized by ectopic bone formation in non‐osseous tissues, with an ...

Ultrasound versus anatomical landmarks for caudal epidural anesthesia in pediatric patients

BMC Anesthesiology, 2015
BackgroundCaudal block is easily performed because the landmarks are superficial. However, the sacral hiatus is small and shallow in pediatric patients.

Nacre‐inspired layered composite with excellent mechanical support and osteogenic potential for cervical interbody cage

BMEMat, EarlyView.
The cervical interbody cage needs to take both biomechanical and biological requirements into account. Here, a new‐style degradable, multicomponent, and bioinspired nacre‐like cervical interbody cage composite, which exhibits promising mechanical‐support‐related behavior and osteogenesis‐related potential, is designed and prepared.

Caudal epidural anesthesia during intracavitary brachytherapy for cervical cancer

Journal of Radiation Research, 2015
It has been suggested that pain control during intracavitary brachytherapy for cervical cancer is insufficient in most hospitals in Japan. Our hospital began using caudal epidural anesthesia during high-dose-rate (HDR) intracavitary brachytherapy in 2011.

Variations in Human Trigeminal and Facial Nerve Branches and Foramina Identified by Dissection and Microcomputed Tomography

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to identify branches of the trigeminal and facial nerves (FNs) relevant to surgical incisions and injections and the scalp block techniques in the frontotemporal region, and to determine their relationships with superficial vascular structures and bony landmarks.

Caudal anesthesia for anoplasty in a toddler with uncorrected tetralogy of Fallot: a case report

Патология кровообращения и кардиохирургия
Background: Non-cardiac surgery is prevalent among individuals with a history of cyanotic congenital heart disease (CHD), including tetralogy of Fallot (ToF). Surgical and anesthetic procedures in such patients may lead to multiple complications.

A Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing the TruSteer and FXD Double Curve Delivery Systems for Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion With the Watchman FLX Pro Device—The GUIDE‐LAAO Study

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Deflectable delivery systems have been introduced to enhance coaxial alignment and procedural efficacy during left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO), yet randomized comparisons with conventional fixed‐curve systems are lacking. Aims The GUIDE‐LAAO trial evaluated whether the TruSteer deflectable delivery system is non‐inferior to ...

A comparative study of the effect of caudal dexmedetomidine versus morphine added to bupivacaine in pediatric infra-umbilical surgery

Saudi Journal of Anaesthesia, 2014
Background: One of the most commonly used regional anesthetic techniques in pediatric surgeries is the caudal epidural block. Its main disadvantage remains the short duration of action. Hence, different additives have been used.

Zebrafish inversin mutants develop scoliosis in the absence of laterality defects

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Human mutations in INVERSIN are associated with nephronophthisis, variable penetrance of situs inversus and congenital heart disease. Inversin has been shown to localize to cilia and many of the patient phenotypes are attributed to disrupted cilia function.
