Analgesic Efficacy of Spinal Morphine in Comparison With Transversus Abdominis Plane Block for Postoperative Pain Management in Patients Undergoing Cesarean Section Under Spinal Anesthesia: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Background: Cesarean section (CS) has been one of the most frequently performed major surgical interventions and causes severe postoperative pain. Spinal opioid and abdominal field block have been investigated as effective analgesia for postoperative pain and reduce the need for systemic medications and associated side effects. The aim of the current study is to compare spinal morphine (SM) and bilateral landmark oriented transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block for postoperative pain management.

Patterns of Admission and Clinical Outcomes Among Patients Admitted to Medical Intensive Care Unit of a Teaching and Referral Hospital, Northwest Ethiopia.

Background: The intensive care unit (ICU) is a health care delivery service for patients who are in critical condition with potentially recoverable diseases. Patients can benefit from more detailed observation, monitoring and advanced treatment than other wards or department. The care is advancing but in resource-limited settings, it is lagging far behind and mortality is still higher due to various reasons.
