Nevertheless, professionals have a nuanced and predominantly positive opinion of video calling it is not suitable for everyone or appropriate under all circumstances, but remote care is seen as a useful addition to the existing arsenal of treatment modalities.

This assessment of remote care was likely adversely affected by the corona measures. Employees were suddenly forced to alter their usual work habits and had not been optimally trained in the new method were more critical. Moreover, they were forced to work from home and lacked informal professional contact with colleagues. Nevertheless, professionals have a nuanced and predominantly positive opinion of video calling it is not suitable for everyone or appropriate under all circumstances, but remote care is seen as a useful addition to the existing arsenal of treatment modalities.Not applicable.

The aim of this study was to compare the effects of pregabalin, betamethasone, and ibuprofen on post-operative pain management in patients with single-level lumbar disc herniation surgery.

The present study was a randomized prospective study conducted at a tertiary university hospital. Sixty patients were equally divided into three groups based on whether they were treated with pregabalin (Group 1), ibuprofen (Group 2), and betamethasone (Group 3). Patients whose pre-operative back and leg pain was evaluated using a visual analog scale (VAS) and the Oswestry scale were administered 100 mg tramadol hydrochloride during surgery. The treatment efficiency was compared by assessing post-operative VAS scores at 24 h, 1 week, and 1 month after and Oswestry scale at 1 month after surgery.

The VAS scores for pre-operative and post-operative back pain did not show significant differences between the results at 1 week and 1 month in any group. There was no significant drug efficacy between post-operative week 1 and post-operative month 1, except for pregabalin; an early effect was less frequently observed in the pregabalin group than in the ibuprofen and betamethasone groups.

Although the three groups treated for single-level lumbar disc herniation received similar post-operative analgesia at the end of post-operative month 1, the decrease in VAS scores for back and leg pain was significant in the betamethasone group in the 1st post-operative 24 h and post-operative month 1.

Diagnosis is based on clinical and radiological findings. Demonstration of edema and thickening of extraocular muscles in orbital magnetic resonance imaging and dramatic response to corticosteroids are considered a pathognomonic finding for orbital myositis. In this case, we aimed to discuss a rare case and emphasize the importance of differential diagnosis in headaches.Infraclavicular block provides adequate anesthesia to the arm, forearm, and antecubital region. There are many different approaches to infraclavicular brachial plexus block. Corocoid approach which is mostly preferred is not appropriate in some cases that needle orientation disappear. In this case report, we performed a newly defined retroclavicular approach to infraclavicular brachial plexus block and discussed in the light of information in literature. see more The patient who has 79 year old man, 29.36 body mass index, American Society of Anesthesiologists 3 with chronic renal failure was admitted to the operation room with complaint of aneurysmatic arteriovenous fistula in the left antecubital area. We planned the infraclavicular brachial plexus block with retroclavicular approach for better visibility of needle. The needle insertion point was posterior to the clavicle and the needle was advanced from cephalad to caudal. The block was effectuated after median nerve stimulation as the needle was advanced toward posterior of axillar artery. In our case with excess weight and life-threatening disease, it is highly reliable to perform infraclavicular block with retroclavicular approach indicated spread of local anesthetic, needle tip, and orientation without damage to nerve and vascular structures under ultrasound-guided.Brachial plexus injury is a complication that can be seen after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), especially median sternotomy. Brachial plexus injury was detected by clinical, examination, and electromyography in the presence of pain in the left arm who underwent CABG operation about 3 months ago. Our case was diagnosed early and improved with appropriate treatment. We are of the opinion that early diagnosis and treatment of a rare complication will lead to improvement in quality of life and improvement.

Demonstrate of accidental intravascular injection during lumbar transforaminal anterior epidural steroid injection (TAESI) performed with three-dimensional imaging angiography (3DIA) and fluoroscopy.

We assessed 20 (9 males and 11 females) patients (with a total of 40 levels) whose images were received with simultaneously 3DIA and fluoroscopy-guided TAESI between January 2016 and September 2016 as retrospective. Injections were carried out in the lumbar fourth intervertebral space bilaterally and performed in the same way all of the cases.

The mean age and body mass index of the patients were 47.9±2.72 years and 26.95±1.21, respectively. There were 10 patients with disc herniation, seven patients with spinal stenosis, and three patients with failed back surgery syndrome. In 3D imaging, vascular escape was detected in the 7 levels (17.5%) which were thought to be no escape in the fluoroscopy imaging.

In chronic lumbar radiculopathy patients, intravascular escapes may occur during the fluoroscopic TAESI procedure. To avoid intravascular injections during TAESI procedure, it may be appropriate to use different imaging methods that can give more detailed results such as 3D angiography.
