Combined Spinal Epidural Anesthesia

Abstract Background The preferable choice of anesthesia for the patients with congenital atlantoaxial dislocation (CAAD) and type I Arnold Chiari malformations (ACM-I) has been a very confusing issue in clinical practice. We describe the successful administration of combined spinal-epidural anesthesia for a woman with CAAD and ACM-1 accompanied by syringomyelia. Case presentation Our case report presents the successful management of a challenging obstetric patient with CAAD and ACM-1 accompanied by syringomyelia. She had high risks of difficult airway and aspiration. The injection of bolus drugs through the spinal or epidural needle may worsen the previous neurological complications. The patient was well evaluated with a multidisciplinary technique before surgery and the anesthesia was provided by a skilled anesthesiologist with slow spinal injection. Conclusions An interdisciplinary team approach is needed to weigh risks and benefits for patients with CAAD and ACM-1 undergoing cesarean delivery. Therefore, an individual anesthetic plan should be made basing on the available anesthetic equipments and physicians’ clinical experience on anesthetic techniques.

Swallowing Evaluation

Purpose At Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, service members (SMs) with polytraumatic injuries, usually resulting from blast explosions, are routinely referred to the Speech Pathology Clinic for evaluation of swallowing function. The purpose of this clinical focus article is to advance the speech-language pathologist's (SLP) knowledge of polytrauma and to improve the care of individuals with traumatic injuries, especially related to nutrition and swallowing within a larger multidisciplinary team approach. Case Report Previous research within our center identified common demographic and injury characteristics of SMs with combat-related injuries that led to referrals for swallowing evaluation. An SM with polytraumatic injuries was selected for this case report to illustrate the relevance of the research findings and also the importance of multidisciplinary team support to appropriately manage such complex cases. Evaluations and relevant treatments are described across a 3-month acute care hospitalization, including swallowing and nutritional recommendations at the time of each swallowing evaluation. Discussion Comparisons of polytrauma cases at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center with literature from civilian trauma centers revealed somewhat longer hospitalizations and the particular influence of maxillofacial trauma on dysphagia outcomes. The complex case reported in this article illustrates the importance of multidisciplinary care and coordination, with particular emphasis on the intersecting roles of the SLP and registered dietitian. This report can serve as a guide for SLPs working in trauma settings for developing prognostic statements, treatment plans, and multidisciplinary interaction.
