Intensive Versus Standard Treatment for Spinal Anesthesia-induced Hypotension in Preeclamptic Patients

The objective of this study is to investigate the impact of varying maternal blood pressure maintenance targets on neonatal outcomes in preeclamptic patients following cesarean section.

Comparison of Ferrous Salt vs. Liposomal Iron in Adult Women With Iron-Deficiency Anemia

The goal of this study is to compare ferrous salt and liposomal iron for the treatment of iron-deficiency anemia in adult women. The study will also evaluate how well each treatment is tolerated. The main questions this study aims to answer are: Does liposomal iron increase hemoglobin levels as effectively as ferrous salt? Are there differences in side effects, especially gastrointestinal symptoms, between the treatments? Does dosing ferrous salt every other day improve tolerance compared to daily dosing? Researchers will compare three oral iron treatment strategies to determine which approach provides the best balance between effectiveness and tolerability. Participants will: Be adult women diagnosed with iron-deficiency anemia Be randomly assigned to one of three groups: Daily ferrous salt Ferrous salt taken every other day Daily liposomal iron Take the assigned iron treatment for 3 months Have blood tests at the beginning and end of the study to measure hemoglobin and iron levels Report any side effects or intolerance during treatment

Feasibility and Safety of Sciatic Nerve Paraneural Sheath Block Using a Mid-Femoral Lateral Approach

This study is designed as a randomized controlled trial aiming to evaluate the feasibility and safety of ultrasound-guided mid-femoral lateral approach sciatic nerve paraneural sheath block, in order to provide a new sciatic nerve block approach for clinical practice that offers greater patient comfort and higher precision, thereby facilitating its use for specific patient populations and less experienced operators.

Addressing Unintentional Leakage When Using Nasal CPAP - Study B

Oral unintentional leak is a common side effect of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) treatment. Management of oral unintentional leakage has not been standardized and the effectiveness of potential approaches have not been studied in controlled studies. Higher levels of CPAP are associated with higher leak. In the present study, a sequential approach to control excessive unintentional leak will be tested. In study A, the reduction of therapeutic CPAP level will be tested. In study B, oronasal CPAP will be compared to nasal CPAP with a chinstrap.

Frequency of Adverse Events in Pediatric Patients Receiving Sedation for Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Introduction:The application of anesthesia outside the operating room for pediatric patients has increased in recent years. For diagnostic and treatment follow-up purposes, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) requires the pediatric patient to remain still, necessitating sedation. The study aimed to determine the frequency of adverse effects and influencing factors in pediatric patients undergoing sedation during MRI. Methods: Between 19.06.2024 and 16.09.2024, estimated 500 pediatric patients who underwent MRI under sedation will be prospectively observed. All non-intubated patients under the age of 16 will be included in the study. The demographic data, comorbidities, and medications of the patients, the procedures performed, the anesthetic drugs used, the expertise duration of the anesthesiologist, and the adverse effects encountered will be recorded.
