Compliance With World Health Organization (WHO)-World Federation of Societies of Anesthesiologists (WFAS) Standards for General Anesthesia at Ibn Sina University Hospital Center, Morocco.

Introduction: Patient safety in anaesthesia has significantly improved over the past decades, largely due to pharmacological and technological advancements, as well as the widespread adoption of guidelines and standards recommended by international organisations. This study aimed to evaluate the practice of anaesthesia and its compliance with the international standards for safe anaesthesia practice recommended by the World Federation of Societies of Anaesthesiologists (WFSA) and the World Health Organization (WHO). This study also describes the operating room within Ibn Sina University Hospital Centre (CHUIS) of Rabat, Morocco, the referral centre, with the aim of identifying its potential and shortcomings.

Case report: Total obstruction of the left main bronchus by a blood clot leads to pneumonectomy in a pregnant woman.

Introduction And Importance: Airway obstruction resulting from blood clot formation is observed across various clinical scenarios and is often preceded by hemoptysis. This condition can significantly compromise respiratory function, potentially leading to life-threatening ventilatory distress.

Case Presentation: In this report, the authors present a case of acute airway obstruction associated with hemoptysis in an 18-week pregnant woman admitted to the emergency department for acute respiratory distress.

Post-vaccine COVID-19 acute myocarditis: case reports and literature review.

COVID-19 vaccines have reduced both lethality and hospitalization rates of the novel coronavirus disease. Nevertheless, multiple side effects have been reported in the literature, most often are harmless. We report two cases of acute myocarditis, hospitalized in the emergency department for chest pain occurring after the second dose of mRNA vaccine AstraZeneca.

Olanzapine induced hyponatremia and rhabdomyolysis.

Rapid-onset hyponatremia and rhabdomyolysis are rare, but potential, complications of olanzapine treatment. Hyponatremia, secondary to atypical antipsychotic use, has been reported in many case reports and is thought to be associated with an inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion syndrome. We report a case of sudden-onset hyponatremia associated with a severe rhabdomyolysis resulting in a coma-necessitating intensive care unit admission.
