A comparative study of haemodynamic and electrolyte changes between 1.5% Glycine and distilled water as irrigation fluid for transurethral resection of prostate surgeries
Journal Title: Medpulse International Journal of Anesthesiology - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 2
Abstract
This prospective comparative study was conducted to study and compare the perioperative haemodynamic and electrolyte changes when 1.5% Glycine and sterile distilled water is used as an irrigation fluid for transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) surgery. 100 patients of benign prostatic hyperplasia undergoing TURP of ASA Gr I,II under spinal anaesthesia were studied in two groups. Group 1(n=50) received normothermic sterile distilled water and Group 2(n=50) received normothermic Glycine 1.5% as irrigation fluid. Heart rate, mean arterial blood pressure, oxygen saturation, E.C.G findings were noted down at every 10 min. Observational record of shivering and other untoward events was kept. Post operatively serum sodium, potassium and haemoglobin and haematocrit were checked at 2and 6hrs interval.

Acomparative study of intrathecal dexmedetomidine and fentanyl as adjuvants to bupivacaine to provide prolonged postoperative analgesia
Background and Objectives: Mixing adjuvants with hyperbaric bupivacaine for intrathecal injection is an practice since long time for reducing dose requirement of bupivacaine and prolongation of duration of action. Short...
A randomized, prospective, comparative study to evaluate the motor blockade properties of 3ml of 0.5% isobaric levobupivacaine and 3ml of 0.5% isobaric ropivacaine for spinal anaesthesia in patients undergoing elective lower limb orthopaedic surgeries
Background: Levobupivacaine is S (-) enantiomer of bupivacaine. It is somewhat less cardiotoxic than the racemic bupivacaine. It seems to be an attractive alternative to Bupivacaine. Ropivacaine is a long acting regional...
Comparative study of effects of tramadol and midazolam added to bupivacaine (0.25%) in supraclavicular brachial plexus block for upper limb surgeries
Background: Supraclavicular brachial plexus block is commonly used for upper limb surgeries due to its effectiveness, performance and margin of safety. To minimize the drawbacks of bupivacaine, adjuvants are usedto impro...
