Comparison of general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation, combined spinal-epidural anesthesia, and general anesthesia with laryngeal mask airway and nerve block for intertrochanteric fracture surgeries in elderly patients: a retrospective cohort study

BMC Anesthesiology, 2019
Background There is no consensus on the optimal anesthesia method for intertrochanteric fracture surgeries in elderly patients. Our study aimed to compare the hemodynamics and perioperative outcomes of general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation ...

Combined epidural-general anesthesia was associated with lower risk of postoperative complications in patients undergoing open abdominal surgery for pheochromocytoma: A retrospective cohort study. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Current evidences show that regional anesthesia is associated with decreased risk of complications after major surgery. However, the effects of combined regional-general anesthesia remain controversial.

Epidural Anesthesia–Analgesia and Recurrence-free Survival after Lung Cancer Surgery: A Randomized Trial

Anesthesiology, 2021
Background: Regional anesthesia and analgesia reduce the stress response to surgery and decrease the need for volatile anesthesia and opioids, thereby preserving cancer-specific immune defenses.

Delirium in Older Patients after Combined Epidural–General Anesthesia or General Anesthesia for Major Surgery: A Randomized Trial

Anesthesiology, 2021
Background: Delirium is a common and serious postoperative complication, especially in the elderly. Epidural anesthesia may reduce delirium by improving analgesia, reducing opioid consumption, and blunting stress response to surgery. This trial therefore

Long-term Survival after Combined Epidural–General Anesthesia or General Anesthesia Alone: Follow-up of a Randomized Trial

Anesthesiology, 2021
Background: Experimental and observational research suggests that combined epidural–general anesthesia may improve long-term survival after cancer surgery by reducing anesthetic and opioid consumption and by blunting surgery-related inflammation.

Instrumentation for Epidural Anesthesia [PDF]

, 2007
A low-cost, sterilizable and unobtrusive instrumentation device was developed to quantify and study the loss-of-resistance technique in epidural anesthesia. In the porcine study, the rapid fall of the applied force, plunger displacement and fluid pressure, and the oral indication of the anesthesiologists were shown to be consistent with the loss-of ...

High Thoracic Epidural Anesthesia in Cardiac Surgery as a Sole Anesthetic Technique. Series of 12 Interventions.

Albanian Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery, 2019
Epidural anesthesia has been used widely as a combination to general anesthesia in cardiac surgery since early seventies. The addition of this technique to general anesthesia may have beneficial effects on clinical outcome.
