Anestesia para bypass vascular em membro inferior com bloqueio de nervos periféricos

Abstract: Vascular bypass is a surgical procedure widely used to treat peripheral vascular disease. The intraoperative anesthetic technique and the most appropriate postoperative analgesia for these high-risk patients remain controversial. We present the case of a patient undergoing femoropopliteal-distal bypass in our service, presenting with relevant comorbidities to the choice of anesthetic technique. This patient had several determining factors of difficult airway, especially thoracic kyphoscoliosis, which prevented… Show more

“…Carrying out "blind" blockades significantly increases the failure rate during anesthesia. In addition, according to the latest information, neurostimulation, which was assumed to be the "golden standard" in the past, is not able to ensure an adequate level of nerve block [28]. Currently, ultrasound navigation allows the anesthesiologist to accurately position the needle and monitor the distribution of local anesthetic in the perineural area [29].…”

“…Regional anesthesia may let high-risk patients have safer anesthesia devoid of any pulmonary and cardiovascular adverse changes. Chronic arterial occlusion is a pathology which may need revascularization therapies [ 1 ]. These operations can be performed under general, spinal, or epidural anesthesia.…”

“…Regional blockade techniques are found superior to general anesthesia regarding postoperative analgesia and suppression of the response to surgical stress leading to hypercoagulability. However, in most cases, patients receive anticoagulant or thrombolytic medications which question the safety of spinal and epidural anesthesia [ 1 , 4 ]. The European Society of Anaesthesiology recommends using superficial blocks such as axillary femoral or distal sciatic nerve blocks which may be applied to anticoagulant therapies.…”

“…General anesthesia (GA) and regional anesthesia (RA) have both been successfully used for PVR [1]. Peripheral nerve blocks may provide an alternative to GA and regional neuraxial blocks where contraindicated as per international guidelines [2,3]. In our institution, when feasible, the preference is to perform procedures under spontaneous ventilation with epidural anesthesia, spinal block, or a combination of both.…”
