Analgesia in the Perioperative Period

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 2015
Untreated or undermanaged perioperative pain has systemic effects that may negatively impact a patient's welfare and return to function. A consistent analgesic plan that assesses a patient's pain and comfort at regular intervals during the perioperative period should be incorporated into practice.

Statins and the Perioperative Period

Seminars in Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, 2007
Recent studies on the effects of statin use on perioperative morbidity and mortality suggest that statins may reduce risk during the perioperative period. However, studies published thus far either were retrospective nonrandomized studies or included small numbers of patients. Individually, none offered authoritative recommendations.

Blood transfusion in the perioperative period

Best Practice & Research Clinical Anaesthesiology, 2012
Anemia is associated with perioperative mortality and morbidity. Since the presence of anemia and blood transfusion often go hand in hand, it can be difficult to separate the effects of anemia from the effects of perioperative transfusion. The role for blood transfusion in mitigating the mortality and morbidity associated with anemia is unclear.

TMS in the perioperative period

2012
Two stimulation approaches developed for selectively exciting descending motor pathways are, transcranial electrical (TES) and transcranial magnetic (TMS) stimulation. This article highlights the comparison between electrical and magnetic transcranial stimulation. Magnetic stimulation is relatively painless; therefore it is the more preferred technique.

Serotonin Syndrome in the Perioperative Period

Anesthesia & Analgesia, 2010
Herein, we report a patient treated preoperatively with multiple psychiatric medications who developed serotonin syndrome (SS) during the perioperative period. SS was diagnosed using the Hunter Criteria (use of multiple serotonergic drugs preoperatively, hypertonia, and spontaneous clonus) and was presumed to have been triggered by the combination of ...

Antiplatelet therapy in the perioperative period

European Journal of Internal Medicine, 2011
The current practice of withdrawing aspirin 7-10 days preoperatively may be dangerous in certain groups of patients. The risk of cardiovascular events increases 3-fold after aspirin withdrawal. The average time between aspirin withdrawal and the manifestation of acute coronary syndrome is 8 to 11 days.

Mechanisms of atelectasis in the perioperative period

Best Practice & Research Clinical Anaesthesiology, 2010
Atelectasis appears in about 90% of all patients who are anaesthetised. Up to 15-20% of the lung is regularly collapsed at its base during uneventful anaesthesia prior to any surgery being carried out. Atelectasis can persist for several days in the postoperative period.

Neuropathic Pain in the Perioperative Period

International Anesthesiology Clinics, 1997
The presence of neuropathic pain in the postoperative period may be associated with unnecessary suffering, particularly if the diagnosis is not made and treatment modalities chosen are ineffective. It is likely that inadequate management of acute pain may set the scene for progression to a chronic pain state.
