Dexmedetomidine as an alternative to general anesthesia in vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty: a safety and efficacy study
Hande Gungor, Mehmet A. Cacan, Yunus O. Atalay
BMC Anesthesiology, 2026
To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of dexmedetomidine during vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty surgery in patients with vertebral compression fractures due to malignancy and osteoporosis. This retrospective study included 41 patients, comprising 22 with osteoporosis and 19 with malignant conditions. Perioperative systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), heart rate (HR), oxygen saturation (SpO2), Visual Analog Scale (VAS) scores, complications, as well as the duration of the operation and anesthesia, were recorded. Additionally, the investigators’ satisfaction scores were documented. All parameters (SBP, DBP, HR, and SpO2) showed statistically significant temporal variations from baseline values (p < 0.001). SBP decreased significantly from the 5th minute onward, while DBP and HR exhibited significant reductions beginning at the 10th minute. These decreases, although statistically significant, were clinically expected and manageable, aligning with the known pharmacodynamic profile of dexmedetomidine. In contrast, SpO2 values demonstrated significant increases at the 15th and 30th minutes, indicating preserved respiratory stability. The median preoperative VAS score was 6 (range: 1–10), while the median score at 60 min postoperatively was 1 (range: 0–3). The median operator satisfaction score was 3 (range: 1–3). In minimally invasive surgery for vertebral compression fractures, particularly in elderly patients with comorbidities, dexmedetomidine sedoanalgesia appeared to be a well-tolerated and feasible option for achieving adequate sedation and pain control. Nevertheless, due to the retrospective design and limited sample size, further prospective and controlled studies are required to confirm these findings and better define its role in clinical practice.

Saudi Journal of Anaesthesia, 2026
Background: Effective pain control following tonsillectomy in children remains challenging. Traditionally, opioids such as fentanyl have been used for pain control, but its adverse effect profile makes it a less ideal option for children, particularly those with obstructive sleep apnea. The curent study investigates the perioperative effects of ketamine on postoperative pain and delirium in children. Methods: In this prospective trials, patients 3–8 years of age were randomized to receive either fentanyl or ketamine for pain management. Pain was assessed using the face, legs, activity, crying, consolability (FLACC) scale, and emergence delirium was evaluated with the pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium (PAED) scale. Postoperative outcomes, including recovery time and analgesic requirements, were also recorded. Results: The study cohort include 59 pediatric patients. The ketamine group exhibited higher pain scores in the first 15 min post-surgery compared to the fentanyl group. However, pain scores between the two groups were comparable by 30 min. The incidence of emergence delirium was higher with ketamine than fentanul (19.35% versus 3.57%). The groups had similar recovery and post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) times, as well as supplemental analgesia requirements. Conclusion: Although ketamine demonstrated delayed pain relief and a higher incidence of emergence delirium, it showed potential as part of a multimodal analgesic approach. The combination of fentanyl and ketamine may optimize pain management in pediatric tonsillectomy, reducing opioid use while minimizing adverse effects. Further studies are needed to refine dosing strategies and assess long-term outcomes.

Objective Analgesia management following breast surgery is a critical concern. The erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is a regional anaesthesia technique that is frequently used for analgesia after breast surgery. However, there is no consensus on the volume. Therefore, the aim of this study was to compare ESPB performed using 20 mL vs. 30 mL. Methods The study included 43 female patients with American Society of Anesthesiologist class I-II physical status. Participants were randomized into two groups: 20 mL ESPB and 30 mL ESPB. Ibuprofen (400 mg) 3x1 was ordered, and a fentanyl patient-controlled analgesia device was attached intravenously to the participants. If the pain score was ≥4, meperidine (0.5 mg kg-1) was administered. Results Postoperative fentanyl use was similar between the groups. There was no difference in the amount of rescue analgesic use between the groups. The static and dynamic numerical rating scores were similar between the groups. No statistical difference was noted in terms of nausea, vomiting, or itching between the groups. Conclusion A similar analgesic effect is achieved by performing ESPB using 20 or 30 mL of local anaesthetic at the same concentration.

OBJECTIVES Breast-conserving surgery is a common breast operation type in the world. Patients may feel severe postoperative pain after the surgery. Several regional anesthesia methods are used for postoperative pain control as a part of multimodal analgesia management after breast surgery. Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) and rhomboid intercostal plane block (RIB) are commonly used techniques for this purpose. The studies that compare these methods are limited. Therefore, we aimed to compare the efficacy of ESPB and RIB. METHODS This prospective, randomized study included sixty female patients with ASA class I-II physical status in the study. All patients underwent general anesthesia. We performed the blocks at the end of the surgery before extubation. Participants were randomized into two groups between the operation: the Group ESPB (n=30) and the Group RIB (n=30). We performed 30 ml volume of 0.25% bupivacaine for the blocks. 400 mg ibuprofen 3x1 was ordered postoperatively, and a fentanyl PCA device (2 ml bolus, 0 ml infusion, 20 min lock time, 4 hour limit) was attached intravenously to the participants. If the pain score was ≥4, meperidine (0.5 mg/kg) was performed. RESULTS There were no differences in terms of demographical data. The postoperative opioid use, pain scores, adverse events, and the need for rescue analgesia were similar between groups. CONCLUSION Both RIB and ESPB are effective regional anesthesia techniques following breast surgery. They are simple and safe methods. Anesthesiologists may prefer one or the other based on their clinical experience.

BACKGROUND Living donor hepatectomy is a procedure associated with notable postoperative pain, impacting patient recovery and satisfaction. Addressing this challenge, we aimed to examine the effect of ultrasound-guided bilateral erector spinae plane block (ESPB) in postoperative analgesia management of patients undergoing living donor hepatectomy for liver transplantation. METHODS A single-center prospective, randomized, controlled study was conducted on ASA I-II patients aged 18-65 who underwent elective living donor hepatectomy. Participants were randomized into ESPB (N.=20) and control (N.=21) groups. ESPB was performed under ultrasound guidance with 0.25% bupivacaine (20 mL bilaterally) at T7-T9 levels. The control group received no block. Postoperative analgesia included IV acetaminophen, opioids, alongside fentanyl patient-controlled analgesia. Pain intensity was assessed using Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) at various time intervals. Primary outcome was to compare postoperative opioid consumption levels and secondary outcomes were to evaluate postoperative pain scores, requirement of rescue analgesia, and opioid-related side effects. RESULTS Patients in ESBP group exhibited lower total fentanyl consumption (P=0.023) and lower meperidine use for rescue analgesia (P=0.001) compared to controls. While static pain scores showed no significant difference, Group ESPB reported lower dynamic pain scores in the immediate postoperative period (P=0.047). The incidence of nausea was lower in Group ESPB (6 vs. 17, P=0.002) with no observed complications. CONCLUSIONS ESPB displayed promise in effectively managing post-living donor hepatectomy pain, resulting in decreased opioid consumption, improved pain relief, and reduced rescue analgesia requirements. This technique holds potential to enhance recovery and patient satisfaction following donor hepatectomy.

The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of deep subgluteal block (DSGB) for pain relief after posterolateral-approached total hip replacement. The cadaver study and observational case series assessed the spread and outcomes of ultrasound-guided DSGB. Results showed low postoperative pain scores, minimal opioid requirements, and no complications related to DSGB. Anatomical dissection revealed effective spread of the injected substance. These findings suggest that DSGB could be a promising regional analgesic technique for postoperative pain management after posterolateral-approached total hip replacement.
