Abstract
In this large-scale prospective study, dermatologic surgery on patients receiving aspirin was found to be safe, as no statistically different complication rate was found between the study and the control groups. This statement is further emphasized due to the significantly statistically older age, c...

Anesthesia Progress (56)3 2009
Abstract
We performed intravenous sedation with dexmedetomidine hydrochloride during minor oral surgery and compared this agent with propofol. Patients were randomly divided into 2 groups: dexmedetomidine hydrochloride (D) and propofol (P) groups. In Group D, systolic blood pressure (SBP) increased immediate...

Abstract
We describe using overhead boom traction in wrist arthroscopy. The advantages are circumferential fluoroscopic access; lack of central post interference with instrumentation; and continuous, uninterrupted traction without need for frequent "dialing up" of traction tower height....

Abstract
True allergic reaction to lidocaine is extremely rare and none was noted in our study. Most patients who claimed that they had suffered from such a reaction were probably experiencing symptoms related to intravenous injection administration, a reaction to the added vasoconstrictor (adrenaline), or a...

Abstract
The effect of severe pain and its hazardous stress-related cardiocirculatory consequences have been well documented for the perisurgical setting. Independently of surgical intervention however, even short and simple measures (e.g. thorax drain removal, repositioning a limb fracture) and longer diagn...

Abstract
Superior wound healing with excellent cosmesis is critical in superficial dermal wounds created when cosmetically unacceptable lesions are removed from the body. Dermatologists frequently remove seborrheic keratoses, nevi, and angiomas from the body with a superficial shave excision. The excision is...

The number of minor surgical procedures performed in family medicine offices almost doubled (503 vs 906 after the course, P<0.001, Wilcoxon test). The median number of abscesses/comedones treatments per physician increased from 1 to 6 (P<0.001, Wilcoxon test), the number of managed wounds increased...

Pediatric Emergency Care (24)5 2008
Abstract
There were 205 patients who received INM for sedation and who met the study criteria. The mean age was 31.3 +/- 13.2 months (range, 1.5-60 months). The mean and median initial INM dose was 0.4 mg/kg (range, 0.3-0.8 mg/kg). Laceration repair was the most common procedure necessitating sedation (89%)....

Abstract
A mixture of ketamine, midazolam and atropine given orally provides sedation and analgesia similar to that produced by the same drugs given intramuscularly. It offers advantage over the intramuscular route as it is painless and can be given for minor paediatric oncology procedures with appropriate m...

A comparison of preoperative anxiety in female patients with mothers of children undergoing surgery.
Abstract
We compared anxiety in mothers of children undergoing ambulatory surgery with female patients undergoing surgery themselves. We found that mothers were as anxious as patients undergoing major abdominal surgery and more anxious than patients undergoing minor surgery. Predictors of maternal anxiety we...

We decided to test the null hypothesis that there is no difference in the INR before and after minor dentoalveolar surgery. Data from the dental records of 71 patients treated consecutively over an 18-month period were examined, and INR before and after operation tested by a Friedman non-parametric...

The assessment of postoperative pain by monitoring skin conductance: results of a prospective study.
Abstract
The number of fluctuations of skin conductance per second correlates with postoperative pain. The aim of this prospective study was to test the cut-off value for the number of fluctuations of skin conductance per second obtained from a previous study. Seventy-five patients were asked to quantify the...

Abstract
Probit analysis was used to predict an optimal dose of fentanyl, co-administered with propofol 2.5 mg.kg(-1), when inserting the laryngeal mask airway. In all, 21 male and 54 female healthy Chinese patients, aged 18-63 years, requiring anaesthesia for minor surgery were recruited. They were assigned...

Abstract
A higher dose of 1 mg.kg(-1) rectal midazolam results in much better sedated children on induction of anesthesia than 0.5 mg.kg(-1). This, however, does not result in a reduced incidence of emergence delirium after sevoflurane anesthesia. Regardless of the premedication negative behavioral changes o...

Abstract
Classical RSI is used for children by most anesthetists in south-west England. RSI is modified for infants especially by more recently trained consultants. Suxamethonium is used less by consultant anesthetists. Whilst RSI is performed for appendicectomy there is a large variation in techniques for a...

We used a needle microincision-extirpation technique in a patient with multiple miliary osteoma cutis unresponsive to non-invasive treatment modalities. Skin overlying the papules was incised with a needle and then the calcificated papules were extirpated by using a small curettage device. Lesions w...

The mean age of patients was 28.4 years (range 18-38). The mean follow-up time was 2.8 years. One recurrence, one seroma, one wound infection and one wound breakdown were recorded. Healing was always by first intention except in patients with wound infection and breakdown. CONCLUSION: Most of the co...

Facemask general anesthesia is suitable for many minor surgeries but has become unpopular partly because of the laryngeal mask airway. Appropriate facemask anesthesia is safe, effective and cheap, and associated with minimal complications. It also improves the airway management skills of the anesthe...

A total of 83 patients aged 13 months to 14.5 years (median age 3.4 years) were enrolled over a 16 month period. Hypersalivation occurred in 11.4% of patients given atropine compared with 30.8% given placebo (odds ratio (OR) 0.29, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.09 to 0.91). A transient rash was obse...

BACKGROUND: Hyponatremia is common after major surgery. It is now recognized as a potential complication after minor surgery. Premenopausal women are more likely to suffer permanent brain damage or death from hyponatremic encephalopathy than are men or postmenopausal women. CASE: A 36-year-old woman...
