Perfusion index as a predictor of hypotension following spinal anaesthesia in lower segment caesarean section

Indian Journal of Anaesthesia, 2017
Background and Aims: Perfusion index (PI) is a new parameter tried for predicting hypotension during spinal anaesthesia for the lower segment caesarean section (LSCS). This study aimed at investigating the correlation between baseline perfusion index and

Fungi anaesthesia [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Electrical activity of fungus \emph{Pleurotus ostreatus} is characterised by slow (hours) irregular waves of baseline potential drift and fast (minutes) action potential likes spikes of the electrical potential. An exposure of the mycelium colonised substrate to a chloroform vapour lead to several fold decrease of the baseline potential waves and ...

Managing spinal hypotension during caesarean section: An update [PDF]

, 2018
Hypotension is common after spinal local anaesthesia for caesarean section. However, the substandard treatment of spinal hypotension and associated complications are responsible for up to two-thirds of deaths that occur in South Africa (SA) for caesarean

Ultrasound-guided caudal anaesthesia combined with epidural anaesthesia for caesarean section: a randomized controlled clinical trial

BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth
Background Although epidural anaesthesia and spinal anaesthesia are currently the general choices for patients undergoing caesarean section, these two neuraxial anaesthesia methods still have drawbacks.

Automatic Lumbar Spinal CT Image Segmentation with a Dual Densely Connected U-Net [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
The clinical treatment of degenerative and developmental lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) is different. Computed tomography (CT) is helpful in distinguishing degenerative and developmental LSS due to its advantage in imaging of osseous and calcified tissues. However, boundaries of the vertebral body, spinal canal and dural sac have low contrast and hard to
