    Abstract Background and aims: The return of consciousness (ROC) after general anesthesia (GA) is by stopping the administration of anesthetic agents. At present, no drug is given to reverse the loss of consciousness produced by general anesthetic agents. This study is conducted to find whether caffeine and aminophylline hasten the ROC.
    Material and methods: This study was conducted on 75 American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) I and II female patients undergoing laparoscopic hysterectomy, aged between 18 and 60 years. The patients were divided into three equal groups (Group C: caffeine citrate, Group A: aminophylline, and Group S: saline) of 25 each by a computer-generated random number table. GA was induced with propofol, fentanyl, and maintained with propofol infusion. On completion of the surgery, the neuromuscular blocking agent was reversed and then the infusion of propofol was stopped. The study drug was administered intravenously when the BIS 60 was achieved. Time to achieve BIS 90, return of first gag reflex, eye-opening on verbal command, and extubation after study drug administration were noted. Hemodynamic parameters and SpO2 were also monitored.
    Results: The time for BIS 60 to 90 was 10 (4.25) min in the caffeine group, 13 (4.25) min in the aminophylline group, and 26 (9.0) min in the saline group. The time to return of gag reflex and time to extubation were shorter in the caffeine and aminophylline group compared to the saline group. The time to eye-opening on verbal command was shorter in the aminophylline group compared to the saline group. Hemodynamic parameters after infusion of the study drug were comparable in all three groups.
    Conclusion: Caffeine hastens the recovery from total intravenous anesthesia with propofol and fentanyl in laparoscopic hysterectomy as effectively as aminophylline.

    Abstract Background: Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) are a global health problem with a growing prevalence. India has a high prevalence of CRE. CRE infections are difficult to treat, and are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Colonisation is generally a prerequisite for infection and the prevention of CRE colonisation is key to the prevention of CRE infection.
    Objectives: To determine the prevalence of CRE colonisation and subsequent infections in an adult intensive care unit (ICU) in India.
    Methods: We conducted a prospective observational study in which perirectal swabs were obtained along with relevant clinical details of consenting adult patients upon ICU admission between January 2019 and August 2020. Rectal screening was performed using MacConkey agar plates with ertapenem disks and further identification was performed using conventional microbiological techniques. Ertapenem minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was determined using an epsillometer (E) test. The modified carbapenem inactivation (mCIM) test and EDTA carbapenem inactivation test (eCIM) were performed to confirm carbapenem resistance using the Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) 2020 guidelines.
    Results: 192 ICU patients were screened for CRE. 37 patients were found to be colonised with CRE.
    Conclusion: CRE colonisation is associated with high risk of subsequent CRE infection and longer ICU and hospital admission.

    Abstract Background: Although fast-track treatment pathways are well established in colorectal surgeries, their role in oesophageal resections has not been well studied. This study aims to prospectively evaluate the short-term outcomes of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol in patients undergoing minimally invasive oesophagectomy (MIE) for oesophageal malignancy.
    Patients and methods: We studied a prospective cohort of 46 consecutive patients from January 2019 to June 2022 who underwent MIE for oesophageal malignancy. The ERAS protocol mainly consists of pre-operative counselling, pre-operative carbohydrate loading, multimodal analgesia, early mobilisation, enteral nutrition and initiation oral feed. Principal outcome measures were the length of post-operative hospital stay, complication rate, mortality rate and 30-day readmission rate.
    Results: The median (interquartile range [IQR]) age of patients was 49.5 (42, 62) years, and 52.2% were female. The median (IQR) post-operative day of intercoastal drain removal and initiation of oral feed was 4 (3, 4) and 4 (4, 6) days, respectively. The median (IQR) length of hospital stay was 6 (6.0, 7.25) days, with a 30-day readmission rate of 6.5%. The overall complication rate was 45.6%, with a major complication (Clavien-Dindo ≥3) rate of 10.9%. Compliance with the ERAS protocol was 86.9%, and the incidence of major complications was associated with failure to follow the protocol ( P = 0.000).
    Conclusions: ERAS protocol in minimally invasive oesophagectomy is feasible and safe. This may result in early recovery with shortened length of hospital stay without an increase in complication and readmission rates.

    Abstract COVID-19 is a highly infectious disease with varied presentation as well as outcome. Inflammation plays a major role in the outcome of COVID-19 infection. This study was aimed to evaluate the role of conventional feasible inflammatory markers in predicting the outcome of COVID-19 in hospitalized adult patients.
    Material: A total of 100 confirmed COVID-19 patients were included in the study. Clinical and demographic data were collected. Biochemical, hematological, and inflammatory markers were assessed in all the patients. Disease severity and primary outcome as survival and or mortality were recorded.
    Observation: Hematological indices and inflammatory markers were significantly higher among the non-survivor. N/L (Neutrophil/Lymphocyte) ratio and CRP (C-reactive protein) can differentiate non-survivor from survivors with the sensitivity of 85.7%, 85.7%, and specificity of 96.8 %, 77.4% with a cut-off value of 6.44, 23.02 respectively in the receiver operator curve (ROC). N/L ratio and CRP were significantly increased among the patients with severe COVID-19 infection. Cox regression Survival analysis showed that an elevated N/L ratio and CRP were significantly associated with mortality with the Hazard ratio of 1.331 (P <0.001) and 1.014 (P <0.015) respectively.
    Conclusion: The present study implicates that increased N/L ratio and CRP were significantly correlated with severity and mortality in COVID-19 patients. These conventional feasible markers can be useful in predicting the outcome of COVID-19 infection.

    Abstract Background and aims: Dexmedetomidine is a highly selective α-2 adrenoreceptor agonist and has been found to be an effective premedication agent when administered via the intranasal route. We aimed to compare the efficacy of dexmedetomidine premedication administered via intranasal route and through nebulization in pediatric patients.
    Material and methods: This non-inferiority randomized controlled trial was conducted after getting approval from institutes ethics committee and informed written parental consent. Sixty-four children aged 2-8 years scheduled for elective surgery under general anesthesia were enrolled and were divided into two groups. Group I (Intranasal, n = 33) received 2 mcg/kg dexmedetomidine via intranasal route and group N (Nebulized, n = 31) received 2 mcg/kg dexmedetomidine through nebulization. The primary outcome was number of patients with satisfactory sedation 30 minutes after premedication at separation from parent. The secondary outcome included ease of medication acceptance, anxiety at parental separation, acceptance of anesthesia mask, perioperative hemodynamics, emergence agitation during recovery and adverse effects. Data collected was analyzed using Chi-square test, Student "t" test and Mann-Whitney U test with the help of SPSS 22. A one tailed
    Results: Demographic profile was comparable between groups. On arrival in OR 27 (81.8%) patients in group I and 21 (67.7%) patients in group N had satisfactory sedation score (
    Conclusion: Although nebulized dexmedetomidine is non-inferior to intranasal dexmedetomidine in providing desired level of sedation but intranasal administration had better acceptance of medication and anesthesia mask with lesser anxiety at parental separation and postoperative emergence agitation.

    Abstract Objective: Early diagnosis of sepsis is crucial to institute appropriate therapy and then to avert a possible negative outcome. We planned this study to evaluate the diagnostic value of presepsin, its sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing sepsis in critically ill patients, and its ability to prognosticate the outcome of sepsis.
    Methods: In this prospective observational study, adult patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) at our institute were screened, and those with features suggestive of sepsis were recruited into the study. Procalcitonin (PCT) and presepsin were assessed on the day of admission and day 7 of the ICU stay, apart from routine investigations. Patients were followed for outcome in terms of mortality till 28 days.
    Results: The study comprised 82 patients who satisfied the inclusion criteria. Presepsin sensitivity for sepsis diagnosis was determined to be 78%, while that of PCT was determined to be 69%. This gave a combined sensitivity of presepsin and PCT of 93% when used in parallel for the diagnosis of sepsis.
    Conclusion: A combination of PCT and presepsin provides higher sensitivity and can be used to screen for sepsis in the ICU.

    Abstract Introduction: Enhanced Recovery after surgery (ERAS) guidelines have been formulated in the literature for various different specialties but none is present for maxillofacial trauma patients. Hence, we have formulated ERAS protocol for maxillofacial trauma (ERAS-MT) patients and compared with the patients receiving the standard traditional care for post trauma outcomes.
    Methodology: A randomized controlled trial included 74 patients divided into two groups: Group 1 (ERAS group:37 patients) and Group II (Control group:37 patients). ERAS group were intervened according to the formulated ERAS protocol based on the previous literature and the control group received the standard of care. The both groups were compared for various post trauma outcomes.
    Results: Baseline demographic data was non-significant between both the groups. There was significant decrease in pre-operative IV fluid use and total number of IV analgesics used till 72 h as well as in the immediate post operative period in the ERAS group(p = 0.001). ERAS group started oral feeds within 6 h and they were significantly compliant for oral carbohydrates in the pre-operative phase(p = 0.001). PONV episodes, swelling and infections were insignificantly less in the ERAS group(p > 0.05), however a significant difference was seen throat pain and decreased anxiety as well as Oral Hygiene Index(p = 0.001). At two weeks, a significant difference was seen in overall patient's satisfaction and cost analysis in the ERAS group (p = 0.001).
    Conclusion: Our study suggested that ERAS protocol was associated with shorter hospital stay, early recovery with better overall satisfaction of the patients, lesser post-operative complications and significantly decreased cost analysis.
