  • The study focused on developing an optimized lidocaine dosing regimen for obese patients during surgery, highlighting the need for more effective pain management.
  • Researchers gathered data from 30 patients, measuring plasma levels of lidocaine and its metabolites to create a pharmacokinetic model.
  • The findings suggested that current dosing was often inadequate, but an adjusted regimen could improve the likelihood of reaching therapeutic drug concentrations.

Objectives: Failures and complications associated with treatments comprising laparoscopic sacrohysteropexy (SHP) for advanced pelvic organ prolapse (POP) are unclear. We compared failure rates associated with SHP and laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy (SCH)/sacrocolpopexy (SCP) for advanced POP to determine whether they differed.

Methods: Clinical data of patients who underwent SHP (n = 52) and SCH/SCP (n = 209) were retrospectively examined.

Mitochondrial disorders are often underrecognized as potential causes of rhabdomyolysis, a condition characterized by acute muscle breakdown that can lead to local and potentially systemic complications, with the possibility of being life-threatening. Accounts of rhabdomyolysis as a peri-operative complication associated with mitochondrial disorders are rare; therefore, this study is noteworthy. We describe a case of rhabdomyolysis that occurred during the peri-operative period in a middle-aged male with Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease-like peripheral neuropathy.
