Dear colleagues
The second issue of the Greek e-journal of Perioperative Medicine for 2024 presents various articles concerning perioperative medicine,
The first article is the clinical study of Fyntanidou B et al. which investigates the possible impact of total infusion time of NaCl 7.5% on its efficacy in normovolemic patients. The authors concluded that hypertonic NaCl 7.5% efficacy decreases to zero when total infusion time exceeds 10min.
The first case report of Zografidou P et al. presents the perioperative management of a patient with peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM), with left ventricular ejection fraction less than 15%, at 27 weeks of gestation, who underwent for emergency caesarean section. The authors noted that PPCM is related with high morbidity and mortality that can be fatal for mother and fetus and also can cause a chronic decline of mother’s quality of life. Early diagnosis, continuous monitoring, and prolonged treatment therapy (medication selection must be done carefully and with respect for the needs of breastfeeding or pregnant women) may be advantageous for PPCM.
The second case report of Zografidou P et al. describes a patient who was already treated with low-molecular-weight heparin for a gamma knife removal of a thalamic lesion and presented with a… Continue reading
Hypertonic solutions have been widely used for several years for the treatment of hypovolemia, in the context of small volume resuscitation. The aim of the present study was to investigate the possible impact of total infusion time of NaCl 7.5% on its efficacy in normovolemic patients. Continue reading
Peripartum cardiomyopathy is referred to as unanticipated heart failure with no determinable cause between the last trimester of pregnancy and six months post-delivery. The perioperative management of pregnant women with heart failure is challenging. Continue reading
Pulmonary embolism is linked with a remarkable rate of mortality, particularly when it is associated with hemodynamic instability, right atrial thrombus and related right ventricular dysfunction. Intraoperative use of transesophageal echocardiography can lead to the diagnosis of massive thrombi, entrapped in patent foramen ovale. Continue reading
X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy is rarely encountered in the operating room. The clinical presentation is highly variable and creates unique challenges for the anesthesiologist. Case: We hereby present a successful anesthetic management of patient with X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy and related Addison’s disease and Brugada syndrome for an orthopedic surgery and review the available literature about the topic.
