Congenital lobar emphysema: A modified approach to anesthetic management
Malathi C Nandihalli, Srinivas H Thammaiah, Nalini Kotekar, Prashanth R PutranIndian Journal of Critical Care Medicine 2015 19(1):47-49Congenital lobar emphysema (CLE) is a potentially reversible, though life-threatening cause of respiratory distress in neonates. It is a rare developmental anomaly of the lower respiratory tract. A 10-month-old child presented with fever, cough and difficulty in breathing. Respiratory system examination revealed tachypnea with intercostal retraction, decreased breath sounds over the left upper lobe and room air saturation of 95%. Chest radiograph and computed tomography showed hyperi...

Intravenous ketamine for treatment of super-refractory convulsive status epilepticus with septic shock: A report of two cases
Gentle Sunder Shrestha, Pankaj Joshi, Santosh Chhetri, Ragesh Karn, Subhash Prasad AcharyaIndian Journal of Critical Care Medicine 2015 19(5):283-285Refractory and super-refractory status epilepticus is a life-threatening neurological emergency, associated with high morbidity and mortality. Treatment should be aimed to stop seizure and to avoid cerebral damage and another morbidity. Published data about effectiveness, safety and outcome of various therapies and treatment approaches are sparse and are mainly based on small case series and retrospective data. Here we report successful management of two cases of super-refract...

Comparison of upper lip bite test and ratio of height to thyromental distance with other airway assessment tests for predicting difficult endotracheal intubation
Conclusion: ULBT can be used as a simple bedside screening test for prediction of difficult intubation, but it should be combined with other airway assessment tests for better airway predictability. RHTMD can also be used as an acceptable alternative.

Volatile anesthetic for the control of posthypoxic refractory myoclonic status
We present a case of hypoxic brain injury-induced myoclonic status epilepticus successfully controlled with isoflurane. The antimyoclonic effects of isoflurane are likely due to potentiation of inhibitory postsynaptic GABA A receptor-mediated currents and its effects on thalamocortical pathways. It is effective even when intravenous agents fail to control myoclonus. It may be a useful alternative to intravenous anesthetics as a third tier therapy in patients with refractory status myoclonus.

Preoperative red cell distribution width: Not a useful prognostic indicator for 30-day mortality in patients who undergo major- or ultra-major noncardiac surgery
Conclusions: Although preoperative RDW independently predicted 30-day mortality in patients who underwent major- or ultra-major noncardiac surgery, it may not serve as an influential prognostic indicator in view of its low sensitivity and specificity.

Nasal intubation: A comprehensive review
Varun Chauhan, Gaurav AcharyaIndian Journal of Critical Care Medicine 2016 20(11):662-667Nasal intubation technique was first described in 1902 by Kuhn. The others pioneering the nasal intubation techniques were Macewen, Rosenberg, Meltzer and Auer, and Elsberg. It is the most common method used for giving anesthesia in oral surgeries as it provides a good field for surgeons to operate. The anatomy behind nasal intubation is necessary to know as it gives an idea about the pathway of the endotracheal tube and complications encountered during nasotracheal intubation. Various techniques can be used to intubate the patient by ...

Successful removal of foreign body bronchus using C-arm-guided insertion of fogarty catheter through plastic bead
Ravindra Ganuji W.hede, Gaurab Maitra, Subhabrata Pal, Anirban Ghoshal, Soumen MitraIndian Journal of Critical Care Medicine 2017 21(2):96-98Foreign body aspiration is still a cause of significant morbidity in children. Complications occur due to difficulty in diagnosis and treatment. An eight-year-old child presented with a history of recurrent cough for 3 days. Rigid bronchoscopy under general anesthesia revealed plastic bead occupying right main bronchus. Removal with grasping forceps failed for several times due to spherical, smooth, and large bead. Finally, Fogarty catheter was passed through bead under C-arm guidance...

A case of indolent systemic mastocytosis is presented here. After anesthetic induction for elective thyroid swelling with propofol and atracurium followed by endotracheal intubation, a 57-year-old female patient developed acute hypotension, sinus tachycardia, red rashes, increased airway pressure along with difficult ventilation, and desaturation...
