Diagnostic Advantages of Proximal Sacroiliac Joint Injections for Relief of Mechanical Back Pain: A Retrospective Observational Cohort Study. (PubMed, Cureus) - "These findings suggest anatomical and diagnostic advantages of the proximal approach that may identify SIJ pain generators not accessed by distal injections. Prospective controlled studies are needed to evaluate whether the proximal approach warrants earlier consideration in the mechanical SIJ pain treatment algorithm."

OB Hypotension: Spinal Dose after Epidural (ASA 2025) - "Forty-five minutes after the last dose of the epidural medication with 9 mL of 0.0625% bupivacaine plus 2 mcg/mL fentanyl, an intrathecal injection was performed with 12 mg of 0.75% bupivacaine with dextrose. Despite immediate intravenous phenylephrine infusion after spinal, the patient experienced severe hypotension (BP 60s/40s), leading to prolonged fetal decelerations and emergent delivery. Patient and newborn recovered without morbidity."

Successful ultrasound-guided epidural anaesthesia following failed spinal anaesthesia in a patient with neurofibromatosis 1. (PubMed, BMJ Case Rep) - "Spinal anaesthesia was attempted using 3 mL of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine (dextrose 8%), resulting in a unilateral block...The next day, ultrasound-guided epidural anaesthesia at T10-T11 was performed successfully with placement of an epidural catheter in situ for postoperative pain control. This is a rare phenomenon underlining the complexity of anaesthetic management in patients with NF1 and significant spinal abnormalities."

Advanced airway equipment was readily available in the event of failed neuraxial in the setting of anterior mediastinal mass. Cesarean delivery was uneventful."

The effect of anesthesia type on the outcomes of percutaneous nephrolithotomy in elderly males. (PubMed, Ann Med) - "Patients who underwent percutaneous nephrolithotomy under CSEA needed less analgesic injection during the postoperative period. CSEA can shorten the time a patient spends in the operating room and PACU, which provides more effective use of operation room working hours."

The Effect of Intrathecal Bupivacaine Plus Dextrose 5% and Fentanyl Compared with Bupivacaine Alone on the Onset and Duration of Analgesia in Patients Undergoing Lower-Limb Orthopedic Surgery. (PubMed, Adv Orthop) - "The mean duration of anesthesia and analgesia was significantly longer in patients receiving bupivacaine plus fentanyl than in those receiving bupivacaine alone. However, concerning hemodynamic parameters, it cannot be concluded that the bupivacaine plus fentanyl receiving group was generally superior to the bupivacaine receiving group."

A Comparative Preliminary Randomized Clinical Study to Evaluate Heavy Bupivacaine Dextrose Prolotherapy (HDP) and Autologous Blood Injection (ABI) for Symptomatic Temporomandibular Joint Hypermobility Disorder. (PubMed, J Maxillofac Oral Surg) - "HDP is a safe and simple modality for treating symptomatic sub-luxation with predictable clinical outcome. Heavy bupivacaine-dextrose can be considered as a prolotherapeutic agent for symptomatic chronic temporomandibular joint sub-luxation with the pharmacological benefit of local anaesthesia and proliferent delivery through the same injection."

Management Of Suboptimal Spinal Anesthesia During Cesarean Section (ASA 2021) - "Spinal anesthesia with 1.4 mL of 0.75% bupivacaine and 8.25% dextrose was administered, and testing was performed with Allis clamp without reported pain...The patient was offered general anesthesia, but she declined and agreed to proceed with the procedure, throughout which she continued to experience pain and discomfort. Here, we discuss the intraoperative management options for suboptimal spinal anesthesia during Cesarean section."

[VIRTUAL] High-Resolution Epidural spinal cord stimulation (HR-SCS) evokes selective micturition and continence reflexes through a frequency-dependent effect governed by distinct neural circuits. (AUA 2021) - " Three male and three female cats (n=6) were anesthetized with a-chloralose after initial surgical preparations under isoflurane anesthesia... HR-SCS can selectively evoke continence and micturition reflexes through a unique frequency-dependent effect."

Investigation into spinal anesthetic failure with hyperbaric bupivacaine: the role of cold exposure on bupivacaine degradation. (PubMed, Can J Anaesth) - "Canadian clinical practice and handling of hyperbaric bupivacaine is consistent. Most respondents indicated an interest in a formal reporting and collection process. Cold exposure did not degrade bupivacaine. A complex and possibly inconsistent reaction involving dextrose was identified that requires further analysis of a larger sample size to elucidate the mechanisms."
