Preventing exposure to COVID-19 in the operation theatre and intensive care unit
Rangraj Setlur, Alok Jaiswal, Nikahat JahanJournal of Anaesthesiology Clinical Pharmacology 2020 36(5):127-133 The COVID-19 pandemic has gripped the world since January 2020 and has changed our lives in unprecedented ways. It has changed the way we work in the Operation Theatres and Intensive Care Units mainly because of the high risk of disease transmission to the healthcare workers. In order to reduce the risk of disease transmission, an understanding of the means of transmission of the virus is essential to develop a rational strategy that allows patients to receive treatment without placing either the patient or healt...

Lessons learned from first case of Cesarean delivery in a COVID-19 positive parturient in Greek region
We report the successful anesthetic management of a 24-year-old patient, with an active COVID-19 viral infection, scheduled for elective Cesarean section at 40th week of pregnancy. This was the first case in Greek region, and we report and discuss the difficulties and safety issues regarding a COVID-19 positive patient during an elective cesarean delivery. Regional anesthesia with full protective equipment for health personnel involved, along with careful planning and adherence to guidelines achieved safe completion of the operation.

Regional anesthesia in the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic: Clinical guidelines by AORA, India
Vrushali Chandrashekhar Ponde, Sandeep Diwan, Thota Venkata Sanjeev Gopal, J Balavenkata Subramanian, Mohammed Azam DanishJournal of Anaesthesiology Clinical Pharmacology 2020 36(5):109-115 Anesthesiologists are amongst the front line warriors in this COVID-19 pandemic. We need to change our preferences and practices to reduce the spread to healthcare workers and patients in the hospital. General anesthesia involves aerosol-generating procedures while ventilating and intubating the patients. Regional anesthesia maintains respiratory functions, circumvents airway instrumentation and helps to limit viral transmission. This ...

Anesthesia for oral surgeries during the COVID-19 pandemic
Sheila N Myatra, Sushan Gupta, Prathamesh S PaiJournal of Anaesthesiology Clinical Pharmacology 2020 36(5):96-104 The severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus 2(SARS-Cov2) virus replicates in the nasal cavity, nasopharynx, and the oropharynx. During oral surgery, the risk of viral transmission is high during instrumentation in these areas, while performing airway management procedures, the oral surgery itself, and related procedures. During the corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, patients with an oral pathology usually present for emergency procedures. However, patients with oral cancer, being a semi-emer...

Kajal Jain, Nidhi Bhatia, Anju Grewal, Sunil T Pandya, Sunanda Gupta, Rashmi Bagga, Anjan TrikhaJournal of Anaesthesiology Clinical Pharmacology 2020 36(5):91-96 Since its first outbreak in December 2019 in Wuhan, China, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has become a global public health threat. In the midst of this rapidly evolving pandemic condition, the unique needs of pregnant women should be kept in mind while making treatment policies and preparing response plans. Management of COVID-19 parturients requires a multidisciplinary approach consisting of a team of anesthesiologists, obstetricians, neonatologists, nursi...

What a pediatric anesthesiologist should know about COVID-19
This article lays special emphasis on the preparation of specialized protocols, designated areas, and training of personnel expected to be involved in patient care. The operating room should be well equipped with weight and age-appropriate equipment and drugs. Special attention should be paid to minimize aerosol generation via premedication and physical barriers. Induction and airway handling should be performed rapidly and securely with minimum personnel present. Disconnections should be avoided during maintenance. Extubation and transfer of children should be smooth. These protocols and guidelines are being constantly re...

Exploring the unknown territories in the new normal world of COVID
This article reports the perioperative management of two coronavirus disease-19 positive cases, one of whom was a pregnant patient. Their CSF samples, which were collected during the administration of spinal anesthesia, tested to be negative for viral reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test. We wish to highlight from these cases, that during spinal anesthesia, CSF in mildly symptomatic COVID-19 cases probably does not pose a risk of transmission to the anesthesiologist. However, we suggest that due to the varied presentations of the virus, health care personnel, especially anesthesiologists have to be...
