Routine diagnostic methods have limitations in terms of predicting the ventilation function of the lungs before and after surgery. It was decided to investigate the possibilities of dual-energy CT (DECT) using xenon in assessment of lung ventilation function.Objective: to master the methods of examination of patients with pulmonary pathology, evaluate the possibility of justifying the volume of operative intervention and prediction of postoperative lung function based on the hybrid images.Materials and methods. For the study, 12 patients with different pulmonary pathologies were selected (COPD – 5, lung cancer – 4, bronchiectasis – 3). Results. It was found that the use of DECT with xenon reflects the functional state of lung tissue.Conclusions. DECT with xenon have potential for planning surgical intervention and introducing the method into modern protocols of preoperative preparation.

Proper Diagnosis

Proper diagnosis of psychoactive substance abuse and addiction, as well as acute intoxication, withdrawal syndrome and overdosing are of great importance in patients who are preparing for surgical intervention. There are some specific details in their preoperative preparation whether they underwent emergency or elective surgery. Good knowledge of the characteristics of psychoactive substance abuse and addiction, interaction of psychoactive substances and anesthetics and any other drugs that could be used in the perioperative period is important especially for anastesiologist. In this work we present key issues for recognizing theese patients as well as some guidelines for adequate preoperative preparation and postoperative care.

The purpose of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of bimanual surgery with anti-VEGF preparation of patients with severe forms of PDR complicated by traction retinal detachment, with intraoperative use of 3D visualization. Material and methods. Operated on 18 patients with a diagnosis of PDR complicated by traction retinal detachment. Of these, there were 7 patients with type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes. There were 5 men and 13 women. The average age was 58 + -2 years. All patients underwent a three-port vitrectomy, using an additional light source, with preoperative preparation with anti-VEGF drugs, using bimanual technique and 3D visualization, using air tamponade. Results and its discussion. As a result of the study, it was found that the visual acuity before the treatment was 0.03 [0.01; 0.1], and 4-6 months after the surgical treatment, 0.3 [0.15; 0.5]. The performed statistical analysis made it possible to establish a statistically significant increase in visual acuity 4-6 months after the treatment. (p = 0.001) Achieved complete anatomical retinal fit. With increased visual acuity. There were 5 complications in the postoperative period. Recurrent hemophthalmos was diagnosed in 3 people, which required repeated surgical intervention. In 2 patients in the postoperative period, DMO developed, which required IVI biodegradable dexamethasone implant. Conclusion. Bimanual, surgical treatment of traction retinal detachments, in severe forms of PDLP, with preoperative preparation with anti-VEGF drugs, and the use of the Ngenuity ALCON 3D imaging system, is one of the effective methods of treatment in this group of patients, and is aimed at reducing both intra and postoperative complications. Key words: рroliferative diabetic retinopathy, vitrectomy, 3D imaging, bimanual surgery, anti-VEGF drugs.

Preparation Strategy

Abstract Introduction Preoperative stress and anxiety in pediatric patients are associated with poor compliance during induction of anesthesia and a higher incidence of postoperative maladaptive behaviors. The aim of our study was to determine which preoperative preparation strategy improves compliance of the child during induction and decreases the incidence and intensity of emergence delirium (ED) in children undergoing ambulatory pediatric surgery. Materials and Methods This prospective observational study included 638 pediatric American Society of Anesthesiologists I–II patients who underwent ambulatory pediatric surgery, grouped into four preoperative preparation groups: NADA (not premedicated), MDZ (premedicated with midazolam), PPIA (parental presence during induction of anesthesia), and PPIA + MDZ. The results were subsequently analyzed in four age subgroups: Group 1 (0–12 months), Group 2 (13–60 months), Group 3 (61–96 months), and Group 4 (> 96 months). Preoperative anxiety (modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale [m-YPAS]), compliance of the child during induction (Induction Compliance Checklist [ICC]), and ED (Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium scale) were analyzed in each group. Results Eighty-one percent of patients in the PPIA + MDZ preparation group presented a perfect compliance during the induction of anesthesia (ICC = 0), less preoperative anxiety (mean score m-YPAS = 26), less probability of ED (odds ratio: 10, 5 [3–37.5]; p < 0.05), and less ED intensity compared with the NADA group (1.2 vs. 5.8; p = 0.001). Conclusion PPIA associated with midazolam premedication improves compliance during induction and decreases the incidence and intensity of ED.
