Comparison of changes in blood pressure in phacoemulsification cataract surgery performed via topical and peribulbar anaesthesia: A cohort study. Med J Armed Forces India 2023; 79:34-39. [PMID: 36605347 PMCID: PMC9807736 DOI: 10.1016/j.mjafi.2020.12.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2020] [Accepted: 12/21/2020] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Background The purpose of study was to compare the changes in blood pressure in patients undergoing phacoemulsification cataract surgery under topical and peribulbar anaesthesia during preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative period. Methods In this prospective cohort study, 240 patients undergoing phacoemulsification were divided into topical (Group 1) and peribulbar (Group 2) equally. Proparacaine 0.5% drops were used for topical anaesthesia, and Inj lignocaine with Inj bupivacaine were used to give peribulbar anaesthesia. Preoperative blood pressure was taken 30 min before surgery with automated sphygmomanometer. Intraoperative blood pressure was taken during phacoemulsification, and postoperative blood pressure was taken 1 h after surgery. Outcomes assessed were systolic, diastolic and mean blood pressure. Results Systolic blood pressure in Group 1 was significantly increased in the intraoperative phase, whereas it was significantly decreased in Group 2 in the intraoperative phase. Diastolic and mean blood pressure in Group 1 showed no significant change, whereas in Group 2, both showed significant reduction in intraoperative and postoperative phases. Conclusion The increase in intraoperative systolic blood pressure in topical group could be due to discomfort from microscope light, iris manipulation, irrigation and aspiration during surgery. The decrease in intraoperative systolic and diastolic blood pressure in peribulbar group could be due to systemic absorption of local anaesthetic. The mean preoperative systolic blood pressure was also higher in the topical group, which could be due to anxiety or stress under topical anaesthesia. The changes in blood pressure need to be observed so that timely intervention can be made to achieve favourable postoperative outcome.

Preoperative Management of Cardiovascular Medications: A Society for Perioperative Assessment and Quality Improvement (SPAQI) Consensus Statement. Mayo Clin Proc 2022; 97:1734-1751.

Abstract
Cardiovascular conditions such as hypertension, arrhythmias, and heart failure are common in patients undergoing anesthesia for surgical or other procedures. Numerous guidelines from various specialty societies offer variable recommendations for the perioperative management of these medications. The Society for Perioperative Assessment and Quality Improvement identified a need to provide multidisciplinary evidence-based recommendations for preoperative medication management. The society convened a group of 13 members with expertise in perioperative medicine and training in anesthesiology or internal medicine. The aim of this consensus effort is to provide perioperative clinicians with guidance on the management of cardiovascular medications commonly encountered during the preoperative evaluation. We used a modified Delphi process to establish consensus. Twenty-one classes of medications were identified: α-adrenergic receptor antagonists, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor blockers, angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitors, β-adrenoceptor blockers, calcium-channel blockers, centrally acting sympatholytic medications, direct-acting vasodilators, loop diuretics, thiazide diuretics, potassium-sparing diuretics, endothelin receptor antagonists, cardiac glycosides, nitrodilators, phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors, class III antiarrhythmic agents, potassium-channel openers, renin inhibitors, class I antiarrhythmic agents, sodium-channel blockers, and sodium glucose cotransportor-2 inhibitors. We provide recommendations for the management of these medications preoperatively.

Abstract
Cataract surgeries are among the most common procedures requiring anesthesia care. Cataracts are a common cause of blindness. Surgery remains the only effective treatment of cataracts. Patients are often elderly with comorbidities. Most cataracts can be treated using topical or regional anesthesia with minimum or no sedation. There is minimal risk of adverse outcomes. There is general consensus that cataract surgery is extremely low risk, and the benefits of sight restoration and preservation are enormous. We present the Society for Ambulatory Anesthesia (SAMBA) position statement for preoperative care for cataract surgery.
