An audit of the i-gel supraglottic airway for general anaesthesia with spontaneous and controlled ventilation - the effect of ventilation mode and operator experience on device performanceAnaesthesiology - Original Paper

Donaldson William, Michálek Pavel, Pokorný Lukáš, Leyden Paul

Anest. intenziv. Med. 2012;23(2):63-68  

Objective:The i-gel supraglottic airway has features that may confer advantage over the standard laryngeal mask in terms of performance and postoperative complications. Design:Prospective observational study (clinical audit). Setting:Anaesthetic department of district general teaching hospital. Material and methods:We carried out a prospective audit of 96 i-gel insertions in order to assess insertion success rate, airway leak associated with a mode of ventilation and postoperative complications. The i-gel was inserted in theatre settings for general surgery, gynaecology, urology and vascular surgical...

Anest. intenziv. Med. 2012;23(2):69-74  

Objective:Validation of three pre-operative examinations which could predict difficult intubation (Interincisor Gap, Thyromental Distance, Temporomandibular Joint Movement). Design:Prospective blinded study. Setting:Department of Anaesthesiology, Resuscitation and Intensive Medicine, University Hospital. Materials and methods:Thyromental distance, interincisor gap and temporomandibular joint movement were measured during the pre-anaesthetic examination in all patients intended for general anaesthesia with tracheal intubation. The Cormack - Lehan laryngoscopic view in Cook's modification...

Objective:Assessment of the quality of life one year after ICU discharge. Design:Prospective observational study. Setting:Dept. of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care Medicine of University Hospital. Materials and methods:Quality of life before admission and one year after discharge from the ICU was assessed by EuroQoL-5D and State Trait Anxiety Inventory questionnaires. The Wilcoxon signed-rank test, χ² and Fisher's exact test were used for statistical analysis with p < 0.05 considered statistically significant. Stepwise logistic regression analysis was performed...

Trefoil factor 1 as an indicator of damage of the intestinal mucosa during sepsis in childrenIntensive Care Medicine - Original Paper

Žurek Jiří, Klučková Kateřina, Fedora Michal

Anest. intenziv. Med. 2012;23(2):83-90  

Objective:The aim of this study was to determine the levels of TFF1 in paediatric patients with SIRS or a septic condition compared with healthy population levels. The second goal was to compare the levels of TFF1 within the individual septic conditions and the impact of this protein levels on mortality. Design:Prospective observational study. Setting:Department of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care Medicine, University Hospital. Materials and methods:The study included 57 children aged 0-19 years (30 boys and 27 girls), hospitalized from June 2009 to March 2011, with expected or proven SIRS and...

The course of cytokine response in an animal model of intraabdominal sepsis modified by immunosuppressionIntensive Care Medicine - Original Paper

Ročeň Milan, Kieslichová Eva, Kudla Michal, Merta Dušan, Šplichal Igor, Čáp Jiří, Gürlich Robert

Anest. intenziv. Med. 2012;23(2):91-96  

Objective:The diagnosis of sepsis in immunocompromised patients is difficult due to their modified response to infection. Our experiment was designed to compare the early clinical and laboratory response to sepsis between experimental groups of septic minipigs with and without immunosuppression. Design:Experimental, comparative study. Material and methods:Experiment was performed on minipigs. Sepsis was induced using a model of caecal ligation and puncture (CLP). Minipigs (with identical baseline parameters) were randomized into 3 group; the sepsis group (n = 10), the immunosuppression group (n = 11), which...

Circulating anticoagulants are endogenous substances interfering in the coagulation cascade, which may even lead to severe bleeding. In the vast majority of cases, these substances are immunoglobulins, production of which may be induced by the administration of coagulation factor concentrates, e. g. in haemophilia patients. However, they can also be associated with malignant neoplasms, drug interactions and old age. The authors present a case report of an 84-years-old female patient in whom factor VII inhibitor was detected following urological surgery. Although diagnostic tests for anticoagulants were negative prior to surgery, the patient developed...
