Lap-assisted vs. US-Guided Visualization of TAP Blocks
Peripheral nerve blocks have been effective in decreasing post-operative pain as well as the use of narcotics for numerous years. Typically, these blocks are placed by anesthesiologist via ultrasound. In more recent years, surgeons have been placing nerve blocks laparoscopically. Since there are few studies that looks compare the two …

Population at Risk of Malignant Hyperthermia: Ambispective Cohort.
Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a pharmacogenetic disease that manifests itself as a hypermetabolic response of skeletal musculature, in genetically susceptible patients, with the inhalation of volatile halogenated anesthetics, depolarizing neuromuscular relaxants such and, rarely, physical stressors such as intense exercise and heat stroke. HM diagnosis is based on the performance …

The Influence of Two Different CO2 Absorbers on Sevoflurane Consumption During Anaesthesia
Sevoflurane is a potent greenhouse gas with a 100 year CO2-equivalents of 120. Measures that can reduce the consumption of volatile anaesthetics could make a significant contribution to reducing the carbon footprint of the operative process. Additionally, Amsorb Plus canisters seem to have a longer life span than sodalime canisters …
