    Abstract Objective: This study was aimed to determine whether preprocedural ultrasonography (USG) affects the technical performance of spinal anesthesia in elderly patients with difficulty in palpating landmarks, scoliosis, or previous spine surgery.
    Materials and methods: This prospective study was conducted in 156 elderly patients scheduled for elective orthopedic lower extremity surgery. The patients were randomly divided into 2 groups to receive spinal anesthesia by the preprocedural USG examination (group U) or conventional landmark palpation technique (group P). The primary finding of our study was the rate of successful access to the subarachnoid space on initial needle insertion attempt. Secondary achievements included number of needle insertion attempts, number of needle redirections, total procedure time, needle pain scores, patient satisfaction, and complications of spinal anesthesia.
    Results: The rate of successful access to the subarachnoid space at the first needle insertion attempt was significantly higher in group U than in group P (74.4% vs 53.8%, p=0.008). Medians (interquartile range) of both needle insertion attempts (group P, 2 [1-3] vs group U, 1 [1-2]; p=0.038) and needle redirections (group P, 3 [2-5] vs group U, 2 [1-4]; p=0.028), requiring to achieve dural puncture, were significantly higher among the patients in group P than those in group U. No statistically significant difference was found between the groups regarding total procedure time, pain scores, patient satisfaction scores, and spinal anesthesia-induced complications (p>0.05).
    Conclusion: Our study findings showed that preprocedural neuroaxial USG improves technical performance of spinal anesthesia in elderly patients with difficult anatomy.

    Abstract In patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), many factors, especially barotrauma may cause pneumothorax. Early detection of pneumothorax is critical in ARDS patients. When pneumothorax is suspected, chest radiography is usually preferred as the first line imaging modality. Recently, ultrasonography has been used by intensive care physicians in many fields, even in imaging of pneumothorax. We present a 75-year-old female patient with ARDS complicated by pneumothorax, in whom chest radiography was not diagnostic but ultrasound was used for diagnosis and follow-up.

    Abstract Aim: Optimum timing is crucial to avoid negative outcomes of weaning. We aimed to investigate predictive values of diaphragmatic thickening fraction (DTF), diaphragmatic excursion (DE), and anterolateral lung ultrasound (LUS) scores in extubation success and compare with rapid shallow breathing index (RSBI) in patients extubated under traditional parameters.
    Methods: Patients undergoing mechanical ventilation for >48 hours were included in the study. In patients planned for extubation, sonographic evaluations of the diaphragm and lung were performed at the T-tube stage. RSBI was achieved in the pressure support (PS) ventilation stage. Predictive values of DTF, DE, and anterolateral LUS scores were compared with RSBI in extubation success.
    Results: Sixty-two patients were enrolled in the study. The study population consisted mostly of trauma patients (77%). A cut-off value of 64 was obtained for RSBI. The positive predictive value (PPV) was found at 97% in extubation success. Cut-off values of 27.5 for DTF, 1.3 cm for the DE, and 6.5 for LUS scores were obtained at the T-tube stage, respectively. PPVs of all sonographic parameters were found over 90%. At the first stage, weaning and extubation failures were determined as 35 and 9.6%, respectively. RSBI was found as a powerful parameter in determining extubation success (r=0.774, p≤0.001) and moderately correlated with sonographic parameters.
    Conclusion: Investigating the lung and diaphragm via ultrasound provides real-time information to increase extubation success. Cut-off values of 64 for RSBI, 27.5 for DTF, 1.3 cm for the DE, and 6.5 for LUS scores were obtained, respectively, and PPVs of all sonographic parameters were found over 90%. We consider that sonographic evaluations accompanied by an RSBI will increase extubation success in the weaning process.
