Understanding spinal anesthesia: A quick guide 💉

Spinal anesthesia is a vital technique for surgeries below the umbilicus, including C-sections and lower extremity procedures. Here’s what you need to know:

Key highlights:

- Indications: Ideal for lower abdomen, legs, and pelvis surgeries.

- Contraindications: Absolute (e.g., patient refusal, local infection) and relative (e.g., coagulopathy, spinal canal issues).

- Mechanism: Blocks nerve transmission by disrupting sensory and motor pathways based on fiber size and myelination.

- Block height factors: Influenced by solution, patient anatomy, and injection technique.

- Physiologic effects: Includes decreased blood pressure, respiratory changes, and temporary urinary retention.

A New Method for Diaphragm Assessment Using POCUS! 🌟

A recent study in Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine introduces a novel ultrasound method to evaluate diaphragmatic excursion. This approach measures the Zone of Apposition (ZOA) excursion.

Key Highlights:

✅ 100% success rate for ZOA excursion on both sides.
✅ Reliable and easy to use, even on challenging left-side assessments.
✅ Potential to improve diagnosis of conditions like diaphragmatic paresis.
✅ Further research needed to validate its use in diverse patient populations and establish reference values.

A clinical trial by Pinarbaşi et al. 2024 reveals that ultrasound-guided transversalis fascia plane (TFP) block offers better recovery outcomes than transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block in C-section patients.

Key findings:

✅ Higher recovery scores: The TFP group achieved a recovery score of 97.1 compared to 87.1 for the TAP group

✅ Lower pain levels: The TFP group reported slightly lower pain levels within the first 24 hours after surgery

✅ Reduced opioid use: Patients in the TFP group used an average of 15.08 mg of morphine, compared to 22.21 mg in the TAP group

TFP block: superior pain relief and reduced opioid need for new mothers.

12/23/2024

A new study in the British Journal of Anaesthesia challenges traditional pain assessment methods, highlighting the predictive power of patient-reported pain experience over pain intensity for chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) risk.

Key Findings:

- Subjective pain experience predicts CPSP: Poor scores on the EVAN-G pain dimension on day 2 post-surgery strongly correlate with CPSP development.

- Pain intensity less significant: Once pain experience is factored in, pain intensity loses predictive power for CPSP.

- Psychological factors matter: Anxiety, depression, and pain catastrophizing play a significant role.

Recommendations:

✅ Use patient-reported outcome tools like the EVAN-G to assess pain experience.

✅ Address psychological aspects of pain with targeted interventions.

✅ Reevaluate pain management strategies to focus on functional recovery and cognitive dimensions of pain.

This approach could enhance CPSP prevention and improve long-term patient outcomes.
