Background: Comparative study of intravenous versus perineural administration of dexmedetomidine in supraclavicular brachial plexus block using 0.75% ropivacaine by ultrasound guided technique in upper limb surgeries.Methods: Patients in the age group 18-58 years both male and female, having ASA 1 and ASA 2, scheduled for elective surgery of unilateral upper limb surgeries were included and randomly divided into three groups’ i.e. group RD, group RDI and group R and patients with chronic pain or taking any analgesics, ASA grade III and IV, bleeding disorders, history of brachial plexus injury, known allergy to the study drug, previous shoulder surgery, any psychiatric disorders, peripheral neuropathy, failed block, significant respiratory disease, hearing impairment, pregnant women, study were excluded.Results: Time to sensory onset in group RD was as compared to group RDI and group R was found statistically significant (p<0.001). Duration of sensory block (analgesia) in group RD, group RDI and Group R was also statistically significant (p<0.001). The level of sedation of Group RDI and Group RD had highly significant value till 30 mins (p<0.001).Conclusions: The central effects of dexmedetomidine also play some role in prolongation of sensory and motor block duration, as explained previously.

Cardiac comorbidities are oftentimes not limited to a single diagnosis, and multiple cardiac abnormalities may have to be considered when administering an appropriate anesthetic. Atrial fibrillation is an abnormal cardiac rhythm with uncoordinated depolarization of the atria causing an irregularly irregular ventricular response. Optimization requires heart rate control as well as anticoagulation, which must be considered prior to any surgical procedure. Percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary stents are placed in the coronary arteries in the face of coronary artery stenosis. The circumstances of when the stents were placed, as well as the type of stents that were used, will determine how long dual antiplatelet therapy must be undertaken and when elective surgery can take place.

Introduction: Studies have shown different views regarding the effect of music in vitals e.g Heart rate (HR), Blood pressure (BP) and atiention. The effect of preferred music with lyrics in vitals and reaction time in stroop test has not been performed in Nepalese students so, we conducted the study. Objective: To find out the change in HR, BP and reaction time in Stroop test before and after their preferred music with lyrics. Methodology Thirty male medical and paramedical students aged 25.27 ± 2.0 participated in study. The vital signs and reaction time in Stroop test before and after music was taken. Results Paired-t test was used to compare means before and after exposure to music. The means are expressed as Mean ± SD. Heart rate (HR) increased after exposure to music (66.33±9.51 Vs 67.2±8.44) (p<.05). The error in Stroop test was less after music (.66±.49 Vs.63±.66) (p<.05). The reaction time after error correction decreased post exposure to music (24.117±4.61Vs23.29±4.45) (p<.05). Conclusion The heart rate increased after exposure to music. The errors decreased after listening to music which also decreased reaction time.
