  1. 11. Pain management in older persons with hip fractures

    Författare :Pär Wennberg; Margareta Möller; Elisabeth Kenne Sarenmalm; Johan Herlitz; Bengt Nellgård; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pain; Pain management; Hip fractures; Cognitive status; Nerve blocks; Emergency medical services;

    Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this thesis was to evaluate the preoperative management of pain from the perspectives of a literature overview, emergency medical service pain management, an intervention with a fascia iliaca compartment block and the association between cognitive status and the treatment of pain. Paper 1 is an integrative review of the literature on emergency care in patients with hip fractures or suspected hip fractures. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Diabetic neuropathy clinical and experimental studies

    Författare :Per Lindström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :diabetes mellitus; neuropathy; ischaemia; sensibility; thermal sensibility; quantitative sensory testing; mammalian nerve; ouabain; osteopenia; neurophysiology; peripheral nerve; anoxia.;

    Sammanfattning : A classification of impaired thermal sensibility is proposed, reflecting the severity of diabetic polyneuropathy in terms of its regional extension. The classification may be a useful tool in cross-sectional and long-term studies of patients with diabetes mellitus. LÄS MER

  4. 13. On the interaction between a neuromuscular blocking agent and regulation of breathing during hypoxia

    Författare :Nicholas Wyon; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Neuromuscular block; TOF ratio; vecuronium; ventilatory response; chemoreceptors; carotid body;

    Sammanfattning : It was previously generally agreed that a mechanical train-of-four (TOF) ratio >0.70 represented an adequate recovery of respiratory function after neuromuscular blockade. Normal respiratory parameters at this level of recovery and during air breathing support this view. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia in children and adults: aspects on central and peripheral blocks

    Författare :Märit Lundblad; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The universal use of regional anesthesia has previously been hampered by fundamental factors, e.g. excessive failure rates, inability to detected anatomical variations and fear for unintentional tissue damage; all due to the inherent imprecision of previous localization techniques.

  7. 15. The efficacy of continuous peripheral blocks after cardiothoracic surgery as evaluated by opioid use, pain, and recovery

    Författare :Mark Larsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Pain after cardiothoracic surgery is most intense the first postoperative days and for the most part mild to moderate. International guidelines recommend a multimodal analgesic strategy that includes local anesthetics for peripheral nerve blocks or local wound infiltration. LÄS MER
