jugular venous pressure. Back pressure exerted into the jugular veins from the right side of the heart.easure the vertical height of the fullness seen as the jugular vein fills. In the healthy (and in the dehydrated) little or no blood is seen in the jugular veins, and they appear to be flat. In right-sided heart failure, the column of blood distends the jugular veins to a height of 5 to 6 cm or more.
The purpose of this study is to compare local with spinal anesthesia in two groups of patients submitted to knee arthroscopy. Sixty-five patients were divided in two groups; based on the anesthesia method used, and submitted to the same surgical routine and postoperative analgesia protocol.
Manipulation under anesthesia may be performed for a variety of musculoskeletal conditions which may include the. ankle, elbow, hip, knee, shoulder, pelvis and pelvic ring fracture, dislocation, diastatis or subluxation, and the spine.
