Low-Cost, High-Fidelity Ultrasound Phantom Gels for Regional Anesthesia Training Programs

open access: yesMedEdPORTAL, 2012
This module details the construction of low-cost, high-fidelity phantom gels that can be inexpensively produced and reused. These gels mimic the anatomic structures pertinent to performance of upper and lower extremity peripheral nerve blockade under ...

Music Interventions in Hyperacute and Acute Stroke Patients: A Randomized Controlled Pilot Feasibility Study

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Music interventions have been shown to have beneficial effects on hemodynamic parameters, pain, and anxiety in various medical settings. However, music interventions in the setting of acute stroke have not been studied. The objective of this trial was to perform a pilot feasibility study of music interventions in the setting of acute

An Adaptive Neuro-fuzzy Strategy in Closed-loop Control of Anesthesia [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
This paper proposes an adaptive neuro-fuzzy framework to improve drug infusion rate in closed-loop control of anesthesia. The proposed controller provides a sub-optimal propofol administration rate as input to reach the desired bispectral index, which is the output of the system, in both induction and maintenance phases.

Development of a Disease Model for Predicting Postoperative Delirium Using Combined Blood Biomarkers

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Postoperative delirium, a common neurocognitive complication after surgery and anesthesia, requires early detection for potential intervention. Herein, we constructed a multidimensional postoperative delirium risk‐prediction model incorporating multiple demographic parameters and blood biomarkers to enhance prediction accuracy ...

Regional Anesthesia for Upper Limb Surgery: A Narrative Review

open access: yesArchives of Anesthesia and Critical Care, 2018
Regional anesthesia is an expanding subspecialty and is gaining increasing popularity due to its significant benefits over general anesthesia if appropriately accomplished, which includes superior intraoperative pain control, attenuation of the surgical ...

CSF Tau Is a Biomarker of Hippocampal Injury in Cryptogenic New‐Onset Refractory Status Epilepticus

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Cryptogenic new‐onset refractory status epilepticus (cNORSE) is a devastating condition characterized by the de novo onset of status epilepticus with unclear etiology. The identification of relevant early biomarkers in cNORSE is important to elucidate pathophysiology, aid clinical decision‐making, and prognosticate outcomes in cNORSE.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS FOR A SAFE PRACTICE OF ANESTHESIA: AN OVERVIEW OF THE GUIDELINE BY WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION AND THE WORLD FEDERATION OF SOCIETIES OF ANESTHESIOLOGISTS

open access: yesŽurnal Grodnenskogo Gosudarstvennogo Medicinskogo Universiteta, 2019
Background. At present, the problem of ensuring the highest possible safety of anesthesia is of current importance. To this end, the World Health Organization and the World Federation of Societies of Anesthesiologists have developed a guideline, the ...

Noninvasive method for electrocardiogram recording in conscious rodents with the electro-conductive liquid electrodes [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2012
Existing methods of heart rate recording in animals have shortcomings, which significantly obscure the influence of experimental factors on heart rate. We have developed a method of electrocardiographic recording of heart rate in rats without these drawbacks.

Very High‐Frequency Oscillations in Mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy: Identifying the Epileptogenic Zone

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the reliability of very high‐frequency oscillations (VHFOs, 500–2000 Hz) as biomarkers in identifying the epileptogenic zone (EZ) in mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) patients. Methods We reviewed 19 MTLE patients who underwent stereo‐electroencephalography‐guided radiofrequency thermocoagulation.

Constructing a control-ready model of EEG signal during general anesthesia in humans [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Significant effort toward the automation of general anesthesia has been made in the past decade. One open challenge is in the development of control-ready patient models for closed-loop anesthesia delivery. Standard depth-of-anesthesia tracking does not readily capture inter-individual differences in response to anesthetics, especially those due to age,
