  2. Hepatic arterial infusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hepatic_arterial_infusion

    Finally, to confirm adequate placement and hepatic perfusion, and to rule out extrahepatic perfusion, a dye (fluorescein or methylene blue) is injected into the pump. After the procedure and before starting the HAI based treatment, a technetium 99m-labeled macroaggregated albumin scan is performed to again confirm adequate hepatic perfusion and ...

  3. Total intravenous anaesthesia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_intravenous_anaesthesia

    TIVA is maintained by intravenous infusion devices and assisted by electroencephalography (EEG) monitoring. These techniques facilitate the use of propofol, etomidate, ketamine, and other intravenous anesthetic agents. During or after TIVA, patients may be subjected to an elevated risk of anesthesia awareness, hyperalgesia and neurotoxicity. [2]

  4. Allergic reactions to anesthesia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allergic_reactions_to...

    Severe allergic reactions to anesthetic medications are rare and are usually attributable to factors other than the anesthetic. Neuromuscular blocking agents, natural rubber latex, and antibiotics are the most common causes of serious allergic reactions during surgery. [2] The mortality rate from these reactions ranges between 3-9%. [3]

  5. Injection site reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Injection_site_reaction

    Injection site reactions (ISRs) are reactions that occur at the site of injection of a drug. They may be mild or severe and may or may not require medical intervention. Some reactions may appear immediately after injection, and some may be delayed. [1] Such reactions can occur with subcutaneous, intramuscular, or intravenous administration.

  6. Extravasation (intravenous) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extravasation_(intravenous)

    Extravasation is the leakage of intravenously (IV) infused, and potentially damaging, medications into the extravascular tissue around the site of infusion. The leakage can occur through brittle veins in the elderly, through previous venipuncture access, or through direct leakage from wrongly positioned venous access devices.

  7. Postanesthetic shivering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postanesthetic_shivering

    Postanesthetic shivering is one of the leading causes of discomfort in patients recovering from general anesthesia. It usually results due to the anesthetic inhibiting the body's thermoregulatory capability, although cutaneous vasodilation (triggered by post-operative pain) may also be a causative factor.

    [27] [28] [29] Most are given to prevent bleeding during treatment with chemotherapy or stem cell transplant. [29] [28] [30] Much of the remainder are used in general medicine, cardiac surgery and in intensive care. [29] [28] [30] Unlike other blood products demand for platelet transfusions appears to be increasing in several countries around ...

  9. Allergic transfusion reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allergic_transfusion_reaction

    An allergic transfusion reaction is when a blood transfusion results in allergic reaction. It is among the most common transfusion reactions to occur. Reported rates depend on the degree of active surveillance versus passing reporting to the blood bank. [1] [2] Overall, they are estimated to complicate up to 3% of all transfusions. [3]
