Interventional modalities like nerve destruction can provide relief but at the expense of motor paralysis. Sympathetic pain is often an undiagnosed and undertreated condition that may accompany cases of chronic pain.

- This study investigates the effectiveness of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections in treating discogenic pain, a common source of low back pain.
- The research included 25 patients who received PRP injections and assessed their pain and functional status using pain scores and disability indexes before and after the procedure.
- Results indicated that higher platelet concentrations in PRP were associated with greater improvements in pain and function at three and six months after treatment, suggesting that PRP could be a beneficial therapy for this condition.
Introduction: Hydatid cysts are most commonly found in the liver and lungs but they are rarely found in pericardium.
Case Presentation: We present a rare case of isolated hydatid cyst in pericardium of heart of a 70 year old female presented in casualty with unusual features like, dyspnea, palpitation and chest pain mimicking acute coronary syndrome.
Discussion: Hydatid cyst in Pericardium represents only 0.
Background: Reduction of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) continues to be a major challenge in perioperative care in spite of introduction of newer antiemetics with better efficacy and safety profiles. Therefore, we evaluated the additive effect of oral midazolam and clonidine for PONV prophylaxis in granisetron premedicated patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Materials And Methods: In a prospective, randomized fashion, 120 selected cases were randomized into three groups: I, II or III to receive a tablet of midazolam (15 mg, n = 36), clonidine (150 mcg, n = 40), or glucose as placebo (5 g, n = 44) orally, 1 h before anesthesia.
Purpose: To study the feasibility of using the pro-seal laryngeal mask airway (LMA) for airway maintenance during bronchoscopic-guided percutaneous tracheostomy.
Materials And Methods: Observational study of 60 patients in a 16-bed intensive care unit. The patient's tracheal tube was exchanged for a pro-seal LMA before undertaking percutaneous tracheostomy.
