    Effects of Minimal Flow Sevoflurane or Desflurane Anaesthesia on Hemodynamic Parameters, Body Temperature and Anaesthetic Consumption
    (2020) Taskın, Duygu; Gedik, Ender; Kayhan, Zeynep; 0000-0002-7175-207X; 0000-0003-0579-1115; 33103139; ABI-2971-2020; AAJ-4623-2021
    Objective: We aimed to compare minimal flow sevoflurane and desflurane anaesthesia in terms of hemodynamic parameters, body temperature, anaesthetic gas consumption and cost. Methods: 120 patients with ASA I-II (>18yo) who underwent elective surgery for longer than 60 min after general anaesthesia were randomized into two groups. The Drager Perseus (R) A500 workstation was used. Pre-oxygenation was performed for 3 min with 6 L min(-1) to 100% oxygen. Fractional inspirium oxygen concentration (FiO(2)) was reduced to 40%, fresh gas flow was 4 L min(-1) after intubation. Sevoflurane or desflurane was started at 1.5 minimal alveolar concentration (MAC). When the MAC value reached 0.9, fresh gas flow was reduced to 0.5 L min(-1), FiO(2) was increased to 68%. At the end of the surgery, the vaporizer was switched off, the fresh gas flow was increased (4 L min(-1), FiO(2) 100%). When the train-of-four (TOF) ratio was 100%, extubation was carried out. Results: There were no differences in patient characteristics and initial hemodynamic parameters of the groups. There were statistically significant differences between the times to reach 0.9 MAC, extubation and eye opening; anaesthetic, O-2 and air consumption in both groups. Conclusion: With minimal flow, the time to reach target MAC, time to extubation and eye opening were significantly faster for desflurane and anaesthetic, oxygen and air consumption in desflurane anaesthesia were less than sevoflurane. Thus, we can say that desflurane has faster anaesthetic induction and recovery time with lower anaesthetic consumption than sevoflurane.

    Clinical utilization of arterial occlusion pressure estimation method in lower limb surgery: effectiveness of tourniquet pressures
    (2016) Tuncali, Bahattin; Boya, Hakan; Kayhan, Zeynep; Arac, Sukru; Camurdan, Mehmet Ali Koray; 26969952
    Objective: The effectiveness of the arterial occlusion pressure (AOP) estimation method to set tourniquet inflation pressures was assessed in patients undergoing lower limb surgery. Methods: One hundred ninety-eight operations were performed in 224 lower extremities of 193 patients. Tourniquet inflation pressures were set using the AOP estimation formula and adding 20 mmHg of safety margin to AOP value. Primary outcome measures were the amount of tourniquet pressure and its effectiveness. The quality of the surgical field and complications were assessed by the surgical team in a blinded fashion. Secondary measures included the time required to set the tourniquet pressure and complications. Results: The initial and maximal tourniquet pressures used were 168.4 +/- 14.5 and 173.3 +/- 15.6 mmHg, respectively. The performance of the tourniquets was assessed as "excellent" and "good" in all stages of the procedure in 97.76% of cases. The time required to measure AOP and set the tourniquet cuff pressure was 19.0 +/- 2.6 sec. No complications occurred during or after surgery until discharge. Conclusion: Clinical utilization of the AOP estimation formula is a practical and effective way of setting tourniquet pressures for lower limb surgery. Its usage allows achievement of a bloodless field with inflation pressures lower than those previously recommended in the literature for lower limb tourniquets.

    EVALUATION AND MANAGEMENT OF DIFFICULT AIRWAY IN OBESITY: A SINGLE CENTER RETROSPECTIVE STUDY
    (2016) Ayhan, Asude; Kaplan, Serife; Kayhan, Zeynep; Arslan, Gulnaz; 27276769
    The primary aim of this single center retrospective study was to evaluate difficult mask ventilation (DMV) and difficult laryngoscopy (DL) in a unique group of obese patients. A total of 427 adult patients with body mass index (BMI) >= 25 and surgically treated for endometrial cancer from 2011 to 2014 were assessed. Additional increase in BMI, comorbidities, bedside screening tests for risk factors, and the tools used to manage the patients were noted and their effects on DMV and/or DL investigated. Every escalation in the number of risk factors increased the probability of DMV 2.2-fold, DL 1.8-fold and DMV+DL 3.0-fold. Among bedside tests, limited neck movement (LNM), short neck (SN) and absence of teeth were significant for DMV (p<0.05), LNM, SN and obstructive sleep apnea for DL (p<0.05), and LNM and SN for DMV+DL (p<0.05). However, a 10-point increase of BMI was not an independent risk factor when patients with BMI >25% were considered. In conclusion, LNM and SN are independent risk factors for developing DMV and/or DL in obese endometrial cancer patients, while BMI increase over 30 was not additionally affecting difficult airway.

    Anaesthesia Management of a Patient with Factor XI Deficiency
    (2016) Adibelli, Bilgehan; Araz, Coskun; Ersoy, Zeynep; Kayhan, Zeynep; 0000-0002-4927-6660; 0000-0003-0767-1088; 0000-0003-0579-1115; 27366578; AAJ-4576-2021; AAF-3066-2021; AAJ-4623-2021
    Factor XI deficiency is an extremely rare disease presenting no clinical symptoms, unless there is an inducing reason such as trauma or surgery. Normally, factor levels are in the range of 70-150 U dL-1 in healthy subjects. Although no clinical symptoms are seen, only high levels of aPTT can be found. Once a prolongation is detected in aPTT, factor XI deficiency should be suspected and factor levels should be analysed. With careful preoperative preparations in factor-deficient people, preoperative and postoperative complications can be decreased. In this case report, management of anaesthesia during total hip arthroplasty of a patient with factor XI deficiency is presented.

    Obese patients require higher, but not high pneumatic tourniquet inflation pressures using a novel technique during total knee arthroplasty
    (2018) Tuncali, Bahatin; Boya, Hakan; Kayhan, Zeynep; Arac, Sukru; 0000-0003-0579-1115; 0000-0002-7898-2943; 0000-0001-6110-4004; 29526158; AAJ-4623-2021; AAJ-7840-2021; AAJ-7840-2021
    Objectives: This study aims to investigate the effect of obesity on pneumatic tourniquet inflation pressures determined with a novel formula during total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Patients and methods: Data of 208 patients (19 males, 199 females; mean age 69.8 years; range, 53 to 84 years) who were performed TKA between January 2013 and December 2016 were evaluated prospectively. Patients were divided into two groups as non-obese (body mass index [BMI] <= 30.0 kg/m(2)) and obese (BMI > 30.0 kg/m(2)) according to BMI. Tourniquet inflation pressures were set using arterial occlusion pressure (AOP) estimation method and adding 20 mmHg of safety margin to AOP value. All patients were assessed intra-and postoperatively with outcome measures such as systolic blood pressure, AOP, tourniquet pressure and its effectiveness. The quality of the surgical field and complications were assessed by the surgical team in a blinded fashion. Results: The study included 118 and 90 lower extremity operations in obese and non-obese groups, respectively. Compared to non-obese group; extremity circumference, initial and maximal systolic blood pressures, AOP values, initial and maximal tourniquet pressures were higher in obese group. The performance of the tourniquet was assessed as "excellent" and "good" at almost all stages of the surgical procedure in all patients in both groups. No complication occurred intra-or postoperatively. Conclusion: Compared to non-obese patients, higher tourniquet inflation pressure is required in obese patients during TKA due to their wider extremity circumference and higher systolic blood pressure profile.

    Retrospective Evaluation of Patients who Underwent Laparoscopic Bariatric Surgery
    (2018) Tuncali, Bahattin; Pekcan, Yonca Ozvardar; Ayhan, Asude; Erol, Varlik; Yilmaz, Tugba Han; Kayhan, Zeynep; 30140537
    Objective: In the present study, we aimed to retrospectively evaluate the preoperative characteristics, intraoperative and postoperative results of patients who underwent laparoscopic obesity surgeries. Methods: After obtaining the approval of the Ethics Committee, records of patients who underwent laparoscopic obesity surgery from January 2013 to December 2016 were reviewed. Demographic characteristics, medications used in anaesthesia and analgesia, the duration of recovery unit/hospital stay, intensive care unit/mechanical ventilation requirements and complications were recorded. Results: A total of 329 ASA II-III patients over a 3-year period were operated. Thiopental and propofol were administered at induction, sevoflurane, isoflurane and desflurane were administered for the maintenance, and vecuronium and rocuronium were administered to aid in neuromuscular blockage. The mean durations of recovery unit and hospital stays were 30.80 +/- 6.01 minutes and 4.27 +/- 1.68 days, respectively. The hypnotic agent, muscle relaxant or inhalation anaesthetics used did not have a significant effect on the duration of recovery unit and hospital stay. Mask ventilation and intubation were noted to be difficult in 5.5% and 8.5% of the cases, respectively. The presence of obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome and high body mass index and Mallampati scores significantly increased difficult mask ventilation and difficult intubation rates. Four patients were transferred to intensive care unit for close monitoring. Two patients were re-operated on, two patients had rhabdomyolysis, one patient had Wernicke's encephalopathy and two patients had peripheral neuropathy. Perioperative mortality did not occur in any patient. Conclusion: We believe that appropriate patient selection, the use of well-designed anaesthesia and surgical protocols play important roles in increasing the success rate of patient outcomes and early and late complications in laparoscopic obesity surgery.

    Tourniquet pressure settings based on limb occlusion pressure determination or arterial occlusion pressure estimation in total knee arthroplasty? A prospective, randomized, double blind trial
    (2018) Tuncali, Bahattin; Boya, Hakan; Kayhan, Zeynep; Arac, Sukru; 29752149; W-7391-2019
    Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the limb occlusion pressure (LOP) determination and arterial occlusion pressure (AOP) estimation methods for tourniquet pressure setting in adult patients undergoing knee arthroplasty under combined spinal-epidural anesthesia. Methods: Ninety-three patients were randomized into two groups. Pneumatic tourniquet inflation pressures were adjusted based either on LOP determination or AOP estimation in Group 1 (46 patients, 38 female and 8 male; mean age: 67.71 +/- 9.17) and Group 2 (47 patients, 40 female and 7 male; mean age: 70.31 +/- 8.27), respectively. Initial and maximal systolic blood pressures, LOP/AOP levels, required time to estimate AOP/determinate LOP and set the cuff pressure, initial and maximal tourniquet pressures and tourniquet time were recorded. The effectiveness of the tourniquet was assessed by the orthopedic surgeons using a Likert scale. Results: Initial and maximal systolic blood pressures, determined LOP, estimated AOP, duration of tourniquet and the performance of the tourniquet were not different between groups. However, the initial (182.44 +/- 14.59 mm Hg vs. 200.69 +/- 15.55 mm Hg) and maximal tourniquet pressures (186.91 +/- 12.91 mm Hg vs. 200.69 +/- 15.55 mm Hg) were significantly lower, the time required to estimate AOP and set the tourniquet cuff pressure was significantly less (23.91 +/- 4.77 s vs. 178.81 +/- 25.46 s) in Group II (p = 0.000). No complications that could be related to the tourniquet were observed during or after surgery. Conclusion: Tourniquet inflation pressure setting based on AOP estimation method provides a bloodless surgical field that is comparable to that of LOP determination method with lower pneumatic inflation pressure and less required time for cuff pressure adjustment in adult patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty under combined spinal epidural anesthesia.
