Comparative Analysis of the Efficacy of Intrathecal Fentanyl and Magnesium Sulphate as an Adjuvant to Bupivacaine: A Double-Blinded Randomized Controlled Trial.

Asian journal of anesthesiology
BACKGROUNDS: The duration and potency of the subarachnoid block (SAB) can be enhanced by incorporating spinal additives into local anesthetics. In this study, the effectiveness of intrathecal fentanyl and magnesium sulphate as adjuvant anesthetics to...

Postoperative effects and complications of intrathecal morphine compared to epidural analgesia in patients undergoing intracorporeal robot-assisted radical cystectomy: a retrospective study.

BMC anesthesiology
BACKGROUND: Analgesia after robot assisted radical cystectomy aims to reduce postoperative pain and opioid consumption, while facilitating early mobilization and enteral nutrition and minimizing complications. Epidural analgesia is currently recommen...

A Direct Drive Parallel Plane Piezoelectric Needle Positioning Robot for MRI Guided Intraspinal Injection.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
UNLABELLED: Recent developments in the field of cellular therapeutics have indicated the potential of stem cell injections directly to the spinal cord. Injections require either open surgery or a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) guided injection. Nee...

Machine intelligence identifies soluble TNFa as a therapeutic target for spinal cord injury.

Scientific reports
Traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) produces a complex syndrome that is expressed across multiple endpoints ranging from molecular and cellular changes to functional behavioral deficits. Effective therapeutic strategies for CNS injury are therefore li...

MRI-guided lumbar spinal injections with body-mounted robotic system: cadaver studies.

Minimally invasive therapy & allied technologies : MITAT : official journal of the Society for Minimally Invasive Therapy
INTRODUCTION: This paper reports the system integration and cadaveric assessment of a body-mounted robotic system for MRI-guided lumbar spine injections. The system is developed to enable MR-guided interventions in closed bore magnet and avoid proble...

Robotic Assistance for Precise Spinal Injections: Development and Clinical Verification.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Robot-assisted surgical systems have shown promising results and better patient outcomes in pedicle screw instrumentation and percutaneous needle interventions. Many commercial robotic assistance systems are available for the aforementioned procedure...

A magnetic resonance conditional robot for lumbar spinal injection: Development and preliminary validation.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
PURPOSE: This work presents the design and preliminary validation of a Magnetic Resonance (MR) conditional robot for lumbar injection for the treatment of lower back pain.

An MR-Conditional Needle Driver for Robot-Assisted Spinal Injections: Design Modifications and Evaluations.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
This paper introduces design modifications to our MR-Conditional, 2-degree-of-freedom (DOF), remotely-actuated needle driver for MRI-guided spinal injections. The new needle driver should better meet cleaning and sterilization guidelines needed for r...

Stability and compatibility of methotrexate and dexamethasone in 0.9% sodium chloride for intrathecal injection.

Pakistan journal of pharmaceutical sciences
The stability of a mixture of methotrexate and dexamethasone sodium phosphate in 0.9% sodium chloride for intrathecal (IT) injection was assessed. To simulate the clinically used concentrations of the admixtures, 2mL of 0.9% sodium chloride was added...
