Nerve Block Target Localization and Needle Guidance for Autonomous Robotic Ultrasound Guided Regional Anesthesia [PDF]
Visual servoing for the development of autonomous robotic systems capable of administering UltraSound (US) guided regional anesthesia requires real-time segmentation of nerves, needle tip localization and needle trajectory extrapolation. First, we recruited 227 patients to build a large dataset of 41,000 anesthesiologist annotated images from US videos

Macaque's Cortical Functional Connectivity Dynamics at the Onset of Propofol-Induced Anesthesia [PDF]
Propofol, when administered for general anesthesia, induces oscillatory dynamic brain states that are thought to underlie the drug's pharmacological effects. Despite the elucidation of propofol's mechanisms of action at the molecular level, its effects on neural circuits and overall cortical functioning, which eventually lead to unconsciousness, are ...

Long-term functional patency and cost-effectiveness of arteriovenous fistula creation under regional anesthesia: a randomized controlled trial [PDF]
BACKGROUND:Regional anesthesia improves short-term blood flow through arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs). We previously demonstrated that, compared with local anesthesia, regional anesthesia improves primary AVF patency at 3 months.

INTRAVENOUS LOCAL ANESTHESIA [PDF]
In searching for a method to avoid the difficulties of nerve-blocking anesthesia, Bier 1 developed the idea of Venenanasthesie which he reported at the thirty-seventh German Surgical Congress, in 1908. In 1909, he reported a series of 134 cases and gave in detail the technic of the method. 2 The anesthetizing solution is injected into the veins, in a

Immediate reaction to lidocaine with periorbital edema during upper blepharoplasty [PDF]
Introduction: Blepharoplasty is the fourth most commonly performed cosmetic surgery in the US, with 207,000 operations in 2014. Lidocaine is the preferred anesthetic agent for blepharoplasty.
