An Interesting Case of Dengue Encephalitis With Parkinsonism Sequela.

Expanded dengue syndrome has been associated with various neurological manifestations. In this report, we present a rare and interesting case of parkinsonism secondary to dengue encephalitis in a young female. A 25-year-old female was admitted to the ICU with high-grade fever, generalized weakness, and altered sensorium for two days.

Comparison of block characteristics of intrathecal isobaric levobupivacaine versus isobaric ropivacaine for infra-umbilical surgeries in school-age children: A prospective randomised double-blind study.

Background And Aims: Levobupivacaine and ropivacaine are effective local anaesthetic drugs used in regional anaesthesia with low cardio-neurotoxicity profile than bupivacaine, but comparative studies are limited in children. So, we compared these two drugs intrathecally to study their efficacy and safety in school-age children.

Methods: This study was carried out in 60 American Society of Anesthesiologists class I, II and III patients aged 6-12 years, of either sex undergoing infra-umbilical surgeries.

A randomised comparative study of transversus abdominis plane block with or without intravenous diclofenac sodium as a component of multimodal regimen for post-operative analgesia following caesarean section.

Aims: Post-operative analgesia is a major component of perioperative care. An ideal method of pain relief after caesarean section should be cost-effective and safe for mother and baby. This study aims to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block combined with intraoperative diclofenac aqueous for post-operative analgesia in caesarean section.
