Objective: To construct and validate nomogram models that predict the incidence of delirium in elderly patients with non-severe SARS-CoV-2 infection.
Methods: Elderly patients (≥65y) tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 infection at the hospital were included. We used the 3-min diagnostic Confusion Assessment Method for delirium diagnosis.
Objective: To evaluate the effect of transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) on the quality of recovery during the early period after laparoscopic cholecystectomy and the dosage of anesthetic and analgesic.
Methods: One hundred patients who received laparoscopic cholecystectomy with gradeⅠand Ⅱ of American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) criteria were randomly assigned into an observation group and a control group according to random number table, 50 cases in each group. The patients in the two groups were treated with conventional endotracheal intubation anesthesia, anesthesia induction and maintenance.
Article Synopsis
- * Both methods showed similar success rates (91% for TI vs. 88% for SI), but the TI group took significantly longer to perform (P<0.001) with no major complications reported in either group.
- * The TI method resulted in a faster onset and longer duration of sensory and motor blocks for the ulnar nerve compared to the SI method, suggesting that TI may be a more effective option for IBPB in clinical practice.
