Difficult airway management. Three happy ending case reportsAnaesthesiology - Case Reports

During routine anaesthesia the incidence of difficult tracheal intubation has been estimated at 3-18 %. Difficulties in intubation have been associated with serious complications, particularly when failed intubation has occurred. Occasionally in a patient with a difficult airway, the anaesthetist is faced with a situation where mask ventilation proves difficult or impossible. This is one of the most critical emergencies that may be faced in the practice of anaesthesia. If the anaesthetist can predict which patients are likely to prove difficult to intubate, he/she may reduce the risk of anaesthesia considerably. These case reports depict possible ways...

Emergence delirium after use of sevofluranein childrenAnaesthesiology - Review articles

Emergence delirium (ED) is a state of agitation, perceptual disorders and excitation of a child after inhalational anaesthesia. It occurs in 25-55 % of paediatric anae-sthetics. Its duration depends on the chosen anaesthetic drugs, nature of the child, environment and many other factors. Most often, ED occurs in children of the age between 1 and 6 years. The pre-requisite for assessment of child's agitation after anaesthesia as ED is assurance of adequate postoperative analgesia. The Paediatric Anaesthesia Emergence Delirium score (PAED) was designed for objective determination of ED and assessment of its seriousness.The causes of ED have not been...

Tracheal intubation in intensive care - a life saving or life threathening procedure?Intesive Care Medicine - Review Article

Tracheal intubation (TI) is a routine procedure on the ICU. Complications related to TI are some of the most frequent and rather underrated problems in the critical care setting. Patients requiring TI on the ICU usually suffer from organ dysfunction of various severity and very often have poor organ reserves. The lack of time for adequate evaluation and pre-oxygenation of these patients often results in hypoxemia and subsequently a cardiac arrest. It is recommended to apply difficult airway algorithms used in operating theatres to the intensive care environment. Preparation of "bundles of tracheal intubation" and its implementation to the clinical...

Post-transplant right ventricular failure managementIntesive Care Medicine - Review Article

The presence of increased pulmonary artery pressure represents a major risk factor for post-transplant right ventricular failure. In principle the donor heart, which is not adapted to elevated pulmonary vascular resistance, is exposed to pulmonary hypertension in the recipient. Postoperative right ventricular dysfunction is a major cause of morbidity and mortality and despite advances in the peri-operative management, right ventricular dysfunction accounts for 20 % postoperative complications and early deaths in patients after heart transplantation. The presence, grade and reversibility of pulmonary hypertension has to be defined by cardiac catheterization,...

The heart in septic shock and beta-blockade. Reconsidering the paradox?Intesive Care Medicine - Special Article

Matějovič Martin

Anest. intenziv. Med. 2013;24(6):403-409  

Myocardial depression is a well-recognized consequence of septic shock. A growing body of evidence suggests that excessive catecholamine levels exert toxic effects on the heart, thereby contributing to the development of septic myocardial dysfunction. Although seemingly counter-intuitive, beta-blockade aimed at the attenuation of the sympatho-adrenergic stress may represent a plausible concept in protecting the heart during septic shock. Limited experimental and clinical evidence indicates that careful control of heart rate using short-acting beta-1 selective blockers might economize cardiac work without exerting adverse systemic haemodynamiceffects...
