Background: Caesarean section (CS) is the most common inpatient surgical procedure performed in Canada.

Segmental thoracic spinal anesthesia (STSA) is emerging as a promising alternative for high-risk patients undergoing abdominal surgeries, particularly those who are not optimal candidates for general anesthesia (GA). By selectively targeting the thoracic spinal segments responsible for abdominal innervation, STSA aims to provide precise anesthesia and pain management while minimizing systemic side effects. This case series presents the outcomes of several critical patients who underwent abdominal surgeries under STSA.

Introduction: Opioid withdrawal is a regular occurrence for many people who use illicit opioids (PWUIO) involving acute physical and psychological pain. Yet, there is very little data on the withdrawal experience of people in methadone maintenance treatment (MMT) and almost none from the patients' experience. Learning more about patients' withdrawal experiences can help to inform policies and practices that are better suited to address withdrawal and may improve patient satisfaction as well as uptake and retention.
