Crystalloids
Crystalloid solutions are aqueous solutions of low-molecular-weight ions (salts) with or without glucose. They are used to provide maintenance of water, electrolytes, and intravascular fluid volume. Common crystalloid solutions include normal saline (0.9% NaCl), Ringer's lactate, dextrose 5% in water, and dextrose normal saline. Each solution has different properties and indications/contraindications depending on its electrolyte content and osmolarity. Crystalloids are distributed between intravascular and extracellular fluid spaces after administration and have a more transient hemodynamic effect than colloid solutions.
Resuscitation Fluids
This document summarizes the history of fluid resuscitation and discusses various resuscitation fluids. It describes the ideal properties of a resuscitation fluid and notes that currently no single fluid exists that meets all criteria. Several types of colloid and crystalloid fluids are discussed, along with major studies investigating their safety and efficacy in different patient populations. The document concludes that isotonic crystalloids are generally appropriate for initial resuscitation, and that specific considerations apply to fluid selection for different categories of patients such as those with sepsis, traumatic brain injury, or burns.
Inguinal herniorrhaphy
This document discusses inguinal herniorrhaphy, including definitions, indications for surgery, types of procedures, preoperative preparation, the surgical procedure, and potential complications. Inguinal herniorrhaphy is the surgical repair of an inguinal hernia, which can be performed as an emergency procedure for complications like obstruction or strangulation, or electively to prevent future risks. The procedure involves accessing the hernia sac through an incision above the inguinal ligament, reducing the herniated contents, and reinforcing the posterior wall using techniques like Bassini repair or Lichtenstein mesh repair. Potential complications include injury to surrounding structures during surgery and issues like recurrence, infection, or neuralgia

Renal replacement therapy
Renal replacement therapy replaces the normal filtering function of the kidneys using modalities like hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, or renal transplantation. Peritoneal dialysis uses the peritoneal membrane for diffusion and ultrafiltration of solutes and fluid, while hemodialysis uses an external dialyzer to filter the blood via diffusion and convection. Both therapies aim to control uremia, electrolyte abnormalities, and fluid balance. Choice of modality depends on factors like age, cardiovascular status, and expertise available. Continuous renal replacement therapy is preferred for critically ill patients who are hemodynamically unstable.
Vascular Examination
This document provides guidance on performing a vascular examination, including:
1) It outlines the key anatomy of the arterial and venous systems and common pathologies.
2) It describes the equipment, patient positioning, and steps needed for a full examination, including inspection, palpation, auscultation, and testing pulses and blood pressures.
3) Examination techniques are provided to assess the peripheral arterial system, abdominal aorta, and lower limb venous system for varicosities, reflux, and sites of incompetence.
Damage control surgery
Damage control surgery involves rapidly controlling hemorrhaging and contamination through temporary closure of injuries to stabilize critically injured patients, followed by resuscitation and definitive repair once physiology is restored. It aims to prevent the lethal triad of hypothermia, acidosis, and coagulopathy. The approach has three stages - initial laparotomy and packing, ICU resuscitation, and planned reoperation once metabolic conditions improve. It has been shown to improve survival rates for severely injured trauma patients compared to traditional surgery.

ABDOMINAL INCISIONS AND LAPAROTOMY-1.pptx
The theoretical advantage of a paramedian over a midline incision is
a diminished risk of wound dehiscence and incisional hernia
In practice, when these incisions are reopened, the medial edge of the rectus muscle is frequently adherent to the anterior or posterior sheath incision and does not effectively buttress the wound.
A “lateral paramedian incision” refers to a vertical incision created several centimeters lateral to the location of the traditional paramedian incision.
In the patient who has had prior abdominal surgery, the cosmetic advantages of reentering the abdomen through a preexisting scar must be balanced against the challenges associated with dissection in a reoperative field. Close proximity of a new incision to an old one should be avoided in order to minimize the risk of ischemic necrosis of intervening skin and fascial bridges.
Mass closure of the abdominal wall is usually advocated, using large bites and short steps in the closure technique and either non-absorbable (e.g. nylon or polypropylene) or very slowly absorbable suture material (e.g. polydioxanone suture (PDS)). It has been estimated that, for abdominal wall closure, the length of the suture material should be at least four times the length of the wound to be closed to minimise the risk of abdominal dehiscence or later incisional hernia.
Damage control resuscitation
Damage Control Resuscitation (DCR) is a systematic approach for managing major trauma patients at risk of exsanguinating hemorrhage. It incorporates permissive hypotension to minimize blood loss while hemorrhage is uncontrolled, haemostatic resuscitation using blood products instead of crystalloids to prevent coagulopathy, and early hemorrhage control through surgery. DCR aims to decrease mortality and morbidity by recognizing patients at risk of hemorrhagic shock, providing adequate tissue oxygenation through hypotensive resuscitation while limiting further blood loss and clot disruption, and preventing the triad of hypothermia, acidosis and coagulopathy through haemostatic resuscitation and blood product administration according to a
Testicular swelling
1) A 30-year-old man presented with right testicular swelling without pain or urinary symptoms. Examination found an enlarged right testis without tenderness or transillumination.
2) The document provides guidance on evaluating scrotal swellings, including asking about onset/progression, site, associated symptoms, and examination of the testis and epididymis.
3) Common causes of scrotal swelling discussed are hydrocele, epididymal cyst, and varicocele. Hydrocele is fluid between the testis layers, epididymal cyst is a fluid sac in the epididymis, and varicocele is dilated spermatic veins.
An Introduction To Surgical Icu
The document provides an introduction to surgical intensive care units (SICU). It discusses what a SICU is, common indications for SICU admission, the main functions of monitoring and life support in SICUs. It then describes various methods of physiological, safety, and organ-specific monitoring including cardiovascular, respiratory, renal and temperature monitoring used in SICUs. It concludes by outlining different forms of life support for general care, cardiovascular, respiratory, and renal systems commonly provided in SICUs.
Lymphoedema - Clinical features and Management
Lymphoedema is an abnormal swelling of limb due to the collection of excessive amount of high protein fluid secondary to defective lymphatic drainage in the presence of normal capillary filteration.It is very disabiling condition to the patient. In this ppp I have discussed its clinical picture and management in a simple way
Management of coma
Coma is a common medical emergency that requires careful management to prevent further brain damage. Emergency treatment focuses on maintaining oxygenation, circulation, controlling seizures, reducing intracranial pressure, and maintaining normal body temperature. Ongoing care involves monitoring vital signs, providing nutrition, preventing infection, and stimulating the patient as appropriate. The cause of coma must be determined through examination, investigations, and monitoring the patient's response to treatment.
Gangrene & amputation
1) Gangrene is defined as macroscopic necrosis of tissues, and can be dry, wet, or gas gangrene. Dry gangrene is caused by reduced blood flow and progresses slowly, while wet gangrene develops rapidly due to blocked blood flow and favors bacterial growth. Gas gangrene is caused by Clostridium bacteria.
2) Amputation involves surgically removing a body extremity and is indicated for conditions like gangrene, trauma, tumors, and vascular insufficiency. The goals are to remove all infected tissue, achieve wound healing, and provide a stump that can accommodate a prosthesis.
3) Factors in determining the amputation level include the zone of injury, adequate tissue margins, circulation
Fluid and electrolyte
This document discusses fluid management and discusses several key points:
1) It outlines the typical water content of the human body which can vary from 45-75% depending on factors like age, gender, and body type.
2) It describes the importance of fluid for homeostasis, transport mechanisms, metabolic reactions, tissue texture, and temperature regulation.
3) It discusses fluid disturbances like hypovolemia which is a common issue for surgical patients and can be caused by factors like bleeding, vomiting, diarrhea, or burns.
4) It provides guidance on fluid resuscitation versus maintenance volumes and outlines some special fluids that can be used in certain clinical situations.
Bladder dysfunction in cns disorder
The document discusses the anatomy and physiology of normal bladder function and neurogenic bladder. It describes how the central nervous system, including the brain and spinal cord, coordinates bladder filling and emptying. Lesions in different areas can result in overactive bladder, underactive bladder, or a combination. Evaluation tests and treatment options are outlined for various types of urinary incontinence resulting from neurologic issues. Intermittent catheterization is generally the best option for bladder decompression compared to indwelling catheters or suprapubic tubes.
Fasciotomy & Escharotomy
This document discusses fasciotomy and escharotomy procedures for treating compartment syndrome and deep circumferential burns. It defines compartment syndrome and its causes as increased pressure within an osteofascial compartment causing ischemia. Fasciotomy is described as a surgical procedure to cut the fascia and relieve pressure, indicated for crush injuries, burns, and tight bandaging. Escharotomy involves cutting eschar or burned skin to decompress constriction from deep circumferential burns. The document provides details on techniques, indications, and complications for both procedures.
Fluid management in surgical patients
This document discusses the basics of fluid management in surgical patients. It covers topics such as total body water distribution, electrolyte balance, normal water balance, fluid calculation methods, types of intravenous fluids including crystalloids and colloids, and considerations for perioperative fluid management. The document is intended as an educational guide for medical professionals in the Department of Urology at GRH and KMC in Chennai.
Peripheral Vascular Diseases
The document discusses peripheral vascular diseases, which occur when blood flow to the peripheral vessels is reduced, potentially leading to ischemia and tissue damage. It describes the layers of arteries and veins, and compares arterial and venous disorders. Specific conditions covered include atherosclerosis, arterial insufficiency, venous insufficiency, thromboangitis obliterans (Buerger's disease), Raynaud's phenomenon, aneurysms, arterial embolism, and thrombophlebitis. Risk factors, clinical manifestations, diagnostic tests, and management approaches are discussed for each condition.

Approach to a trauma patient - Advanced Trauma Life Support
The document provides information on the Advanced Trauma Life Support (ATLS) approach to evaluating and managing trauma patients. It discusses the history and concepts of ATLS, including focusing first on treating life-threatening injuries in the order of airway, breathing, circulation, disability, and exposure (ABCDE). The summary describes the primary and secondary surveys in ATLS for initial assessment and management of trauma patients. It also highlights key components such as hemorrhage control, use of the FAST exam, and damage control resuscitation principles.
TURP
TURP is a procedure to relieve urinary symptoms from an enlarged prostate. It carries risks due to the elderly patient population and long duration. A thorough pre-op assessment helps determine anesthesia technique, with subarachnoid block preferred. Potential complications include hypotension, hemorrhage, bladder perforation, hypothermia, and the rare but serious TURP syndrome caused by excessive fluid absorption. Close monitoring is needed to rapidly identify and treat any issues.
Subarachnoid hemorrhage
The subarachnoid space is located between the arachnoid membrane and pia mater in the brain. It contains cerebrospinal fluid and spongy connective tissue. Bleeding into this space is called a subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), which is often caused by the rupture of an intracranial aneurysm. CT and MRI are used to detect SAH. Treatment involves relieving vasospasm, removing blood, and clipping or coiling the aneurysm to prevent rebleeding. Complications include hydrocephalus, infarction, and herniation. The mortality rate of SAH is 30-60% even after reaching the hospital.
Status epilepticus
Status epilepticus is defined as continuous seizures or repetitive seizures without full recovery of consciousness between seizures. It can be convulsive, involving motor symptoms, or nonconvulsive without motor symptoms. The traditional definition is seizures lasting 15-30 minutes but immediate treatment is recommended after 5 minutes for generalized tonic-clonic seizures or 10 minutes for complex partial seizures. Initial treatment involves stabilizing the patient and administering lorazepam. If seizures continue, phenytoin, fosphenytoin, or valproate is given. For refractory status epilepticus, general anesthesia with propofol, thiopental, or midazolam is induced. The longer status epilepticus continues, the higher
Post operative complications
This document discusses various post-operative complications organized into categories. It describes wound complications including seroma, hematoma, wound dehiscence, and surgical site infections. It also covers thermal regulation issues like hypothermia and malignant hyperthermia. Gastrointestinal complications involving ileus, bleeding, and leaks are outlined. Other complications discussed include DVT, pulmonary embolism, infections and fever, pulmonary issues, renal failure, cardiovascular events, neurological problems like stroke and delirium, and diabetic ketoacidosis. Prevention and management strategies are provided for each complication.
Deep vein thrombosis (dvt)
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a common and potentially fatal condition. It can lead to pulmonary embolism (PE), which is a leading cause of preventable hospital death. While DVT often has no symptoms, it puts patients at risk for long-term complications. Standard diagnostic tests include ultrasound, CT scans, and D-dimer tests. Risk factors include surgery, trauma, immobility, and cancer. Prophylaxis with blood thinners, compression devices, and stockings can significantly reduce the risk of DVT, especially in high-risk hospitalized patients. Early diagnosis and treatment are important to prevent fatal PE and long-term issues.
Shock
Shock is characterized by a reduction in systemic tissue perfusion and oxygen delivery to tissues, leading to cellular hypoxia. Prolonged hypoxia initially causes reversible cell damage but can progress to irreversible multi-system organ failure and death if shock is not promptly recognized and reversed. The main types of shock are hypovolemic, cardiogenic, obstructive, and distributive. Clinical features include hypotension, oliguria, altered mental status, cool clammy skin, and metabolic acidosis. Additional historical or physical exam findings can provide clues to the specific type of shock.
Shock
1. Shock is defined as the failure to meet the metabolic demands of cells due to decreased tissue perfusion.
2. There are several types of shock including hypovolemic, cardiogenic, septic, neurogenic, traumatic, and obstructive shock.
3. Hypovolemic shock, the most common type in surgery/trauma patients, is caused by blood or fluid loss which decreases perfusion. Its treatment involves securing the airway, controlling hemorrhage, and volume resuscitation.

Obstructive Jaundice and Anesthesia
This document presents the case of a 68-year-old male with obstructive jaundice. He presents with pain in the right upper abdomen, itching, and fever for the past few weeks. On examination, he is jaundiced and has hepatomegaly. Investigations show elevated bilirubin and alkaline phosphatase. Imaging reveals dilatation of the intrahepatic and common bile ducts. The patient is diagnosed with obstructive jaundice likely due to carcinoma of the head of the pancreas and is planned for a Kausch-Whipple's procedure.
Dysphagia
This document provides information on dysphagia (difficulty swallowing). It begins by defining dysphagia and describing the swallowing mechanism. The clinical presentation of dysphagia is then outlined. Dysphagia can be graded on a scale of 1 to 6 based on severity. The document discusses the main causes/etiologies of dysphagia as being neurological, mechanical/obstructive issues. Evaluation involves history, examination, imaging like barium swallow and endoscopy. Management depends on the underlying cause and may include lifestyle changes, medications, endoscopic procedures like dilation, stenting, or surgery.
Septic shock
Septic shock is a life-threatening condition that arises when sepsis leads to dangerously low blood pressure and problems in organ function. It results from an infection that causes changes throughout the body. Early recognition and treatment are important, including administering antibiotics within an hour, aggressive fluid resuscitation, and monitoring for organ dysfunction. Goals of management are restoring blood pressure, reversing signs of low perfusion, and treating the underlying infection while avoiding additional organ injury.
Approach to dysphagia
The document discusses the approach to dysphagia. It begins by defining dysphagia as difficulty swallowing and odynophagia as swallowing causing pain. It then summarizes the stages of swallowing and lists various causes of dysphagia in the oral, pharyngeal, and esophageal phases. These include neurological, inflammatory, traumatic, neoplastic, and motility disorders. The document stresses the importance of a thorough history to determine the site and nature of swallowing problems to guide further diagnostic testing such as endoscopy or barium swallow.
Surviving sepsis campaign highlights 2016
This document summarizes the key changes between the 2012 and 2016 sepsis guidelines. The new definitions remove the SIRS criteria and focus on life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by infection. Septic shock is defined as a subset of sepsis involving circulatory and metabolic abnormalities. Severe sepsis is no longer a category. The guidelines emphasize early broad-spectrum antibiotics, source control when possible, and fluid resuscitation over the first 3 hours. Other recommendations include prone positioning for ARDS patients and short-term neuromuscular blockade.
Management of upper gi bleed
The document outlines various procedures and treatments for gastrointestinal bleeding including:
1) Establishing IV access and administering fluids, blood transfusions, vasopressors, antibiotics, and performing endoscopy for diagnosis and treatment.
2) Endoscopic procedures include band ligation, coagulation, and injection therapies to stop active bleeding.
3) Long term management involves eliminating risk factors, treating H. pylori infections, and using proton pump inhibitors.
Surgical jaundice
This document discusses surgical jaundice, defined as jaundice that can be treated surgically, usually due to extrahepatic biliary obstruction. It covers the definition, causes, pathophysiology, clinical evaluation and treatment of surgical jaundice. The most common cause is gallstones, which can become lodged in the common bile duct. Physical examination may reveal jaundice and abdominal tenderness. Imaging studies can locate the obstruction and determine if it is intrahepatic or extrahepatic. Treatment involves addressing the underlying cause, often through surgery such as cholecystectomy for gallstones or bypass procedures for cancer.
Upper GI Hemorrhage-- Surgical perspective
Common causes for Upper GI hemorrhage are esophageal variceal bleeding or peptic ulcer bleeding. It can be managed endoscopically or surgically.
Dysphagia
Dysphagia refers to difficulty swallowing that can interfere with a patient's ability to eat and carry risks. It has many potential causes, including neurological conditions like stroke, muscular disorders, structural issues, infections, cancers and iatrogenic factors. A thorough history and examination aims to determine if the dysphagia is oropharyngeal or esophageal in nature, and its characteristics may provide clues to structural vs motility etiologies. Careful documentation of symptom onset, progression, relieving/exacerbating factors is important for diagnosis.
Obstructive jaundice.
This document discusses obstructive jaundice, providing definitions, pathophysiology, effects on various body systems, etiology, history and examination findings, laboratory investigations, imaging modalities, and causes of biliary obstruction. It defines obstructive jaundice as a failure of bile to reach the intestine due to mechanical obstruction. Pathophysiological changes include bile duct dilation, hepatic fibrosis, and portal hypertension. Causes include gallstones, strictures, tumors, and congenital anomalies. A thorough history, physical exam, and lab tests can localize the level and cause of obstruction, while imaging modalities like ultrasound and MRCP can identify and characterize obstructive lesions.
Dysphagia
Dysphagia is difficulty swallowing that can affect any part of the swallowing pathway from the mouth to the stomach. It is commonly seen in ENT clinics. There are two main types - oropharyngeal dysphagia involving preparation and transport of food in the mouth and throat, and esophageal dysphagia with food sticking in the lower throat or chest. Causes vary by age from foreign bodies in children to malignancy in the elderly. Evaluation involves history, examination, barium swallow, endoscopy and manometry. Treatment depends on the underlying cause but may include dilation, stenting or surgery.
