Article Synopsis
- A clinical study was conducted to assess different pain management strategies after cesarean sections (CS) using 300 participants divided into five groups based on their anesthesia methods and analgesic protocols.
- Results indicated that the group receiving intrathecal morphine (ITM) reported the best pain relief and function, followed closely by the group combining spinal anesthesia with fentanyl and a TAP block (ITF+TAP).
- The general anesthesia group experienced the worst pain and had the quickest request for additional analgesia, highlighting the effectiveness of multimodal analgesia in enhancing postoperative recovery.
Article Synopsis
- The COVID-19 pandemic has created new challenges for healthcare systems, leading to an increase in chronic pain cases and changes in pain management approaches, primarily due to the postponement of medical services.
- Telemedicine and digital health have surged as critical solutions for providing care, enabling remote treatment for patients with chronic pain who face difficulties accessing healthcare services.
- This literature review analyzes 38 selected studies from various databases, highlighting the evolution, benefits, challenges, and ethical concerns surrounding telemedicine in pain management post-pandemic, as well as future directions for digital health technology.
Objectives: To compare the efficacy of interspace between the popliteal artery and the capsule of the posterior knee (iPACK) block with periarticular local infiltration analgesia (LIA) to assess postoperative pain control and enhanced recovery after total knee arthroplasty (TKA).
Methods: This research was carried out at King Saud University Medical City, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, from September 2020 to March 2021. Eighty Patients scheduled for elective unilateral TKA were randomized to receive either iPACK or periarticular LIA along with adductor canal block under spinal anesthesia.
Context: Mentorship is an integral part of the professional and academic growth; however, the position of mentorships in anesthesia is still yet to be understood. As an attempt to understand this phenomenon, we targeted Riyadh Anesthesiology residents and program directors to explore their perception of mentorship relationships.
Aims: The aims of this study were to assess the prevalence of mentorship in anesthesiology training and to assess the perspective of mentorship from anesthesiology residents.
