Background: Labour epidural analgesia reportedly fails in up to 10 to 25% of cases. A joint taskforce of European Society of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care (ESAIC) experts was created to develop this focused guideline on the management of failing epidural analgesia in a previously well functioning epidural catheter.

Design: Six clinical questions were defined using a PICO (Population/Intervention/Comparison/Outcome) strategy to conduct a systematic literature search.

Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) has emerged as a novel therapeutic option for refractory complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS). However, SCS placement is often complicated by a prior history of surgical manipulation and hardware implantation along the spinal column. Through this case exploration, we aim to expand the technical approach to SCS implantation in CRPS and encourage further research into innovative approaches for this treatment modality.

Article Synopsis
  • Spinal deformity resulting from nontuberculous spondylodiscitis is a complex medical issue that leads to significant limitations in patients' quality of life due to overlapping factors like infection and instability, making treatment challenging.
  • A study involving 23 patients who underwent vertebrectomy and long-segment fixation showed a very poor preoperative quality of life, with 87% bedridden due to pain, but substantial surgical correction was achieved with a significant decrease in kyphosis.
  • Despite successful surgical outcomes, complications were common, including severe anemia and one case of in-hospital mortality due to pulmonary embolism, highlighting the risks involved in operating on this vulnerable patient population.

Brain death (BD) leads to complex hemodynamic and inflammatory alterations which may compromise organ perfusion and induce morphologic and functional damage in various organs. The intestine is particularly sensitive to hypoperfusion and donor hypotension usually precludes intestinal donation. Previous studies reported inflammatory intestinal changes following BD but information on mucosal integrity and perfusion are lacking.

Background: Little data exist on pregnancy and childbirth for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) patients treated with a spinal fusion. The current literature relies on data from patients treated with spinal fusion techniques and instrumentation, such as Harrington rods, that are no longer in use. The objective of our study is to understand the effects of spinal fusion in adolescence on pregnancy and childbirth.
