TL;DR: The ultrasound sequence to perform this block is shown, together with simple X-ray dye images and gadolinium MRI images to understand the spread and pathways that can explain the benefit of this novel approach.
Abstract: Objective The Pecs block (pectoral nerves block) is an easy and reliable superficial block inspired by the infraclavicular block approach and the transversus abdominis plane blocks. Once the pectoralis muscles are located under the clavicle the space between the two muscles is dissected to reach the lateral pectoral and the medial pectoral nerves. The main indications are breast expanders and subpectoral prosthesis where the distension of these muscles is extremely painful. Material and methods A second version of the Pecs block is described, called “modified Pecs block” or Pecs block type II. This novel approach aims to block at least the pectoral nerves, the intercostobrachial, intercostals III-IV-V-VI and the long thoracic nerve. These nerves need to be blocked to provide complete analgesia during breast surgery, and it is an alternative or a rescue block if paravertebral blocks and thoracic epidurals failed. This block has been used in our unit in the past year for the Pecs I indications described, and in addition for, tumorectomies, wide excisions, and axillary clearances. Results and conclusions The ultrasound sequence to perform this block is shown, together with simple X-ray dye images and gadolinium MRI images to understand the spread and pathways that can explain the benefit of this novel approach.

TL;DR: Older COVID-19 patients with higher APACHE II scores on admission, those who developed AKI grades ii or iii and/or septic shock during ICU stay had an increased risk-of-death.
Abstract: Resumen Antecedentes No se ha reportado plenamente la evolucion clinica de los pacientes criticos de COVID-19 durante su ingreso en la unidad de cuidados intensivos (UCI), incluyendo las complicaciones medicas e infecciosas y terapias de soporte, asi como su asociacion con la mortalidad en UCI. Objetivo El objetivo de este estudio es describir las caracteristicas clinicas y la evolucion de los pacientes ingresados en UCI por COVID-19 y determinar los factores de riesgo de la mortalidad en UCI de dichos pacientes. Metodos Estudio prospectivo, multicentrico y de cohorte, que incluyo a los pacientes criticos de COVID-19 ingresados en 30 UCI de Espana y Andorra. Se incluyo a los pacientes consecutivos del 12 de marzo al 26 de mayo del 2020 si habian fallecido o habian recibido el alta de la UCI durante el periodo de estudio. Se reportaron los datos demograficos, los sintomas, los signos vitales, los marcadores de laboratorio, las terapias de soporte, terapias farmacologicas y las complicaciones medicas e infecciosas, realizandose una comparacion entre los pacientes fallecidos y los pacientes dados de alta. Resultados Se incluyo a un total de 663 pacientes. La mortalidad general en UCI fue del 31% (203 pacientes). Al ingreso en UCI los no supervivientes eran mas hipoxemicos (SpO2 con mascarilla de no reinhalacion, de 90 [RIC 83-93] vs. 91 [RIC 87-94]; p Conclusiones Los pacientes mayores de COVID-19 con puntuaciones APACHE II mas altas al ingreso, que desarrollaron IRA en grados ii o iii o shock septico durante la estancia en UCI tuvieron un riesgo de muerte incrementado. La mortalidad en UCI fue del 31%.

TL;DR: The Spanish Societies of Anesthesiology, Hematology and Hemotherapy, Hospital Pharmacy, Critical Care Medicine, Thrombosis and Hemostasis and Blood Transfusion have developed a Consensus Document for the proper use of AABTs.
Abstract: Since allogeneic blood transfusion (ABT) is not harmless, multiple alternatives to ABT (AABT) have emerged, though there is great variability in their indications and appropriate use. This variability results from the interaction of a number of factors, including the specialty of the physician, knowledge and preferences, the degree of anemia, transfusion policy, and AABT availability. Since AABTs are not harmless and may not meet cost-effectiveness criteria, such variability is unacceptable. The Spanish Societies of Anesthesiology (SEDAR), Hematology and Hemotherapy (SEHH), Hospital Pharmacy (SEFH), Critical Care Medicine (SEMICYUC), Thrombosis and Hemostasis (SETH) and Blood Transfusion (SETS) have developed a Consensus Document for the proper use of AABTs. A panel of experts convened by these 6 Societies have conducted a systematic review of the medical literature and have developed the 2013 Seville Consensus Document on Alternatives to Allogeneic Blood Transfusion, which only considers those AABT aimed at decreasing the transfusion of packed red cells. AABTs are defined as any pharmacological or non-pharmacological measure aimed at decreasing the transfusion of red blood cell concentrates, while preserving patient safety. For each AABT, the main question formulated, positively or negatively, is: “Does this particular AABT reduce the transfusion rate or not?” All the recommendations on the use of AABTs were formulated according to the Grades of Recommendation Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) methodology.

TL;DR: Por los datos recogidos en this trabajo se puede deducir that el bloqueo ESP tiene un mecanismo of accion anestesico similar a los bloqueos paravertebrales.
Abstract: Resumen Introduccion El bloqueo del plano del musculo erector (ESP) es una tecnica novedosa para el tratamiento del dolor agudo y cronico Su lugar y mecanismo de accion todavia no han sido explicados Objetivos Determinar el mecanismo de accion del anestesico local en el bloqueo ESP a traves de la inyeccion del azul de metileno, describiendo su distribucion desde la cara anterior del torax Hallar o determinar un paso o canal por el cual el anestesico atraviesa las estructuras musculares y oseas de posterior a anterior Materiales y metodos Se utilizaron 4 columnas de cadaveres frescos criopreservados Se realizaron 9 bloqueos ESP ecoguiados en diferentes regiones de los especimenes con 20 ml de azul de metileno al 0,01% por bloqueo Se observo la distribucion del colorante desde la cara anterior de torax, midiendo la cantidad de espacios intercostales tenidos, antes y despues de la extraccion de la pleura parietal, y se registraron las estructuras en que se constato tintura Resultados En todos los bloqueos ESP se encontro colorante en el espacio paravertebral, los espacios intercostales y en algunos casos en la cadena prevertebral Los bloqueos tuvieron un promedio de 4,6 espacios intercostales tenidos, con un maximo de 7 y un minimo de 3 La intensidad del colorante fue mayor del lado de la inyeccion, dorsal a la columna, que el hallado en la parte ventral por debajo de la pleura No se logro constatar un mecanismo claro por el que el colorante difundiera hacia el la zona anterior Conclusiones Por los datos recogidos en este trabajo se puede deducir que el bloqueo ESP tiene un mecanismo de accion anestesico similar a los bloqueos paravertebrales El sitio por el cual el anestesico atravesaria desde el plano posterior de la columna a la region anterior del torax no fue aclarado y deberia ser investigado en futuros trabajos

TL;DR: Un caso reportado de debilidad motora accidental como efecto colateral al bloqueo del plano del erector de la columna, tras una cesarea practicada a una paciente de 29 anos.
Abstract: Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) as postoperative analgesia method has been successfully carried out in several surgical interventions. Postoperative pain treatment for cesarean section is considered one of the important challenges for anesthesiologists due to the risk of chronic pain development and even pospartum depression. Regional anesthesia techniques were effectively used to prevent the pain together with multimodal analgesia regimes in cesarean section. Formerly, successful erector spinae plane block was documented as postoperative analgesia treatment for cesarean section; however, no motor weakness was recorded as a side effect. In this case report, we present an unexpected motor weakness as a side effect of the erector spinae plane block after cesarean delivery operation in a 29 year old patient. To our knowledge, this is the first report of motor weakness related to the ESPB.
