Laparoscopic versus open gastrectomy for gastric cancer patients with COPD.

30 Oct 2009 BACKGROUND: Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have a higher risk of developing postoperative pulmonary complications. Laparoscopic gastrectomy (LG) is accepted as a standard treatment for early gastric cancer. We sought to ... Read more...

Meta-analysis: ventilation strategies and outcomes of the acute respiratory distress syndrome and acute lung injury.

18 Oct 2009 BACKGROUND: Trials have provided conflicting results regarding the effect of different ventilatory strategies on the outcomes of patients with the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and acute lung injury. PURPOSE: To determine whether ... Read more...

A comparison of the i-gel with the LMA-Unique in non-paralysed anaesthetised adult patients.

29 Sep 2009 SUMMARY: This study assessed two disposable devices; the newly developed supraglottic airway device i-gel and the LMA-Unique in routine clinical practice. Eighty patients (ASA 1-3) undergoing minor routine gynaecologic surgery were randomly ... Read more...
