Publication Metadata only Ultrasound guided popliteal and saphenous nerve blocks for diabetic foot surgery in a morbidly obese patient(Anestezi Dergisi, 2019) Gürkan, Yavuz; Karakaya, Muhammet Ahmet; Özkalaycı, Özlem; Ünlükaplan, Aytekin; Çetin, Seçil; İşgüzar, Agah; Faculty Member; Doctor; Doctor; Doctor; Doctor; Doctor; School of Medicine; N/A; N/A; N/A; N/A; N/A; Koç University Hospital; 154129; N/A; N/A; N/A; N/A; N/AIn this case report, we shared our experience of ultrasound- guided peripheral nerve block application in a high risk patient for anesthesia undergoing diabetic foot surgery. In a patient with hypertension, diabetes mellitus, coronary artery disease popliteal and saphenous nerve blocks were performed. The blocks were performed with a 100 mm block needle, guided by ultrasound. The popliteal block was performed with 15 mL of 2% bupivacaine and 15 mL of 0.5% lidocaine with the knee in flexion and for saphenous nerve block 5 mL of 0.5% bupivacaine and 5 mL 2% lidocaine was administered. Surgery was completed without comprimising the circulatory and respiratory systems. Peripheral nerve blocks should be kept in mind as a safe alternative method of anesthesia in high risk patients.

Although peripheral cannula or catheter in a large vein may help chemotherapy treatment; some complications such as vascular irritation, thrombosis may interrupt the treatment. To avoid this interruption, TIVAPs are usually preferred. The aim of the study was to evaluate device related complications and safety with anesthesia team implanted TIVAPs. Methods: This retrospective study was conducted on patients who underwent procedure for implantation of TIVAPs in our hospital between the dates of January 2017 - December 2020. The demographic data, vascular access side, complications seen related to TIVAPs insertion procedure, the number of removed catheters, reasons of removal of catheters were recorded. Results: During this study period 700 TIVAPs procedure have been performed in our clinic. While 646 patients (92.3%) had right sided TIVAPs, 678 patients (96.8%) had TIVAPs inserted to subclavian vein. When the most common cancer seen in this patient group was colorectal cancer, hepatobiliary tract cancer group came second. Total number of removed catheters for some reasons was 107 which is 15.2% of all patients. When the causes for catheter removal were examined, it was discovered that although systemic infection was the most common reason (47 patients, or 6.7%), the number of patients with positive culture from the port was extremely rare (19 patients) (2.71%). Conclusion: We think that when TIVAPs are inserted under ultrasound guidance and fluoroscopy control in the operating room, the incidence of complications will be relatively low. Especially in cancer patients, TIVAPs can be inserted and used safely with high patient comfort. © 2022 Anestezi Dergisi.

Büyük periferik kanül veya kateterler kemoterapi tedavisini kolaylaştırsa da damar yolu irritasyonu ve tromboz gibi bazı komplikasyonlar tedaviyi kesintiye uğratabilir. Bu kesintiyi engellemek için genellikle TIEVEP’ler tercih edilir. Bu çalışmanın amacı anestezi ekibi tarafından yerleştirilen TIEVEP’lerin cihaz ile ilişkili komplikasyonlarını ve güvenliğini araştırmaktır. Yöntem: Bu retrospektif çalışma, Ocak 2017 - Aralık 2020 tarihleri arasında hastanemizde TIEVEP implantasyonu yapılan hastalar üzerinde yapılmıştır. Demografik veriler, kateter takılan taraf, görülen komplikasyonlar, çıkarılan TIEVEP sayısı, çıkarma nedenleri kaydedilmiştir Bulgular: Bu çalışma süresince kliniğimizde 700 TIEVEP takılmıştır. Altı yüz kırk altı hastada (%92,3) sağ TIEVEP varken, 678 hastada (%96,8) TIEVEP subklavyen vene yerleştirilmiştir. Bu hasta grubunda en sık görülen kanser kolorektal kanser iken, hepatobiliyer sistem kanseri grubu ikinci sırada yer aldı. Yüz yedi olguda (%15,2) çeşitli nedenlerle kateter çıkarılmıştır. Kateter çıkarılma nedenleri araştırıldığında her ne kadar 47 hasta (%6,7) ile en sık neden sistemik enfeksiyonsa da, TIEVEP’den alınan örneklerde kültür pozitif olan hasta sayısının 19 (%2,71) olduğu görülmüştür. Sonuç: Tamamen implante edilebilir venöz erişim portlarının ameliyathanede ultrason rehberliğinde ve floroskopi kontrolünde yerleştirilmesi durumunda komplikasyon insidansının oldukça düşük olacağını düşünüyoruz. Özellikle kanser hastalarına TIEVEP’ler yüksek hasta konforuyla güvenle yerleştirilebilir ve kullanılabilir.
