    Abstract This report aims to describe the perioperative management of a high-risk cardiovascular patient proposed for urgent total knee replacement revision. We discuss the use of peripheral nerve blocks and its impact on haemodynamic stability and clinical outcomes, including major cardiovascular adverse events and myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery.

    Abstract In recent years, ultrasonography has gained unmatched importance in medical practice. After the initial use for central vascular access placement and regional anaesthesia, its application has expanded to airway, ocular, abdominal, lung and cardiac ultrasound, with the concept of point of care ultrasound (POCUS) gaining acceptability and applicability in the most diverse situations. In fact, it has recently been acclaimed as the fifth pillar to bedside evaluation [1]. Performing a POCUS-guided eva-luation has proved to be of value in emergency medicine, with studies demonstrating improved diagnosis and better outcomes [2]. Similarly, in critical care, systematic ultrasound evaluation has been shown to decrease the use of conventional diagnostic imaging tools and time on mechanical ventilation and improve the management of fluid therapy [3]. Recognition of the benefit of ultrasound evaluation in the perioperative period has been increasing. In fact, the need to master clinical ultrasound evaluation has led the Canadian anaesthesiology academic centres to issue recommendations regarding the scope of practice and required training for perioperative POCUS [4].

    Abstract Ultrasound has an important role in the diagnosis and prognosis of polytrauma patients. We describe a case of a 52-year-old man with hemodynamic instability and multiple injuries. Abdominal ultrasound evaluation was positive for hemoperitoneum, so an exploratory laparotomy was performed. During the intraoperative period, lung ultrasound was used to exclude traumatic lung injury. In the right lung, lung ultrasound suggested the presence of pneumothorax, and in the left a subpleural consolidation. Subsequently, a computed tomography was performed, confirming the sonographic findings. On the fourth admission day, he underwent surgical correction of a left hip fracture. A type 2 quadratus lumborum block (ultrasound-guided) was performed before surgical incision. The procedure was uneventful. The patient remained hemodynamically stable, without indirect signs of pain. This case shows that ultrasound-guided examination plays a crucial role in the management of polytrauma patients. It was a fundamental diagnostic tool in the initial evaluation, and was also used during surgery.

    Abstract Background: Pulmonary aspiration is one of the most important complications in anesthesiology. Assessment of gastric content by ultrasound is a good method to quantify gastric volume and to determine the risk of intraoperative pulmonary aspiration. The aim of this study is to determine the accuracy of the gastric ultrasonography in the qualitative analysis of gastric content, mainly in the analysis of small amounts of liquid content.
    Methods: Gastric ultrasound was performed to 36 patients before upper gastrointestinal endoscopy (UGI), making two longitudinal scans at the epigastric level, one in supine position and the other in right lateral decubitus position, measuring two diameters and the area of the gastric antrum and assessing the content characteristics determining whether it was an empty stomach or contained fluid or solid content. Subsequently, the ultrasound findings were compared with UGI findings.
    Results: Gastric areas were analyzed by the trace and the lengths of the craniocaudal and anteroposterior axes concluding that there are no significant differences between the two methods. No statistically significant difference was found between UGI and US assessment technics. No statistically significant difference was found between the estimated volume by UGI and US.
    Conclusions: Though our study has some limitations, qualitative analysis of gastric content using ultrasound followed by endoscopy enabled the conclusion that there are no differences in the qualitative assessment regarding these two techniques, supporting the important role of point-of-care gastric ultrasound (POCGUS) in the assessment of pulmonary aspiration risk by the anesthesiologist in the perioperative period.
