RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: The effect of routine internal medicine and stroke rehabilitation treatment was not good. To confirm that ultrasound-guided stellate ganglion block (SGB) can improve cerebral blood flow in patients with stroke, Transcranial Doppler (TCD) and carotid ultrasound were used to monitor the cerebral blood flow parameters of ultrasound-guided SGB in patients with stroke. METHODS: A prospective study of 40 patients with stroke from January 2021 to October 2022 randomly divided into two groups (group SGB: undergoing ultrasound-guided SGB and standard medical procedures, control group: undergoing standard medical procedures) with 20 cases in each was conducted in People's Hospital of Chongqing Liang Jiang New Area. TCD and carotid artery ultrasound were monitored before and after treatment. There were no significant differences in general data on age, gender, disease course, and stroke type between two groups (P>0.05). RESULTS: After treatment, the bilateral ACA Vm of group SGB was significantly higher, the bilateral internal carotid artery RI and left VA RI were significantly lower than in control group (P<0.05). In group SGB, the Vm of bilateral MCA, bilateral PCA, right ACA, bilateral VA, and BA after treatment were significantly (P<0.05) increased compared to before treatment. PI of bilateral MCA, right ACA, and left VA after treatment were significantly (P<0.05) decreased compared to before treatment. RI of bilateral MCA, bilateral PCA, and bilateral VA after treatment were significantly (P<0.05) decreased compared to before treatment. Right internal carotid artery D after treatment was significantly (P<0.05) higher than before treatment. RI of bilateral internal carotid artery after treatment was significantly (P<0.05) lower than before treatment. CONCLUSIONS: Ultrasound-guided stellate ganglion block could improve local cerebral blood flow and vascular compliance in patients with stroke, and reduce vascular resistance.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: The aim of this work is to examine the efficacy and benefits of ultrasound (US)-guided thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB) using paraventricular oblique sagittal (POS) approach for the treatment of herpes zoster related acute pain (ZAP) and its preventive effects on post-herpetic neuralgia (PHN). METHODS: A total of 136 patients suffering from ZAP within 2 weeks of rash onset were randomly allocated to transverse short axial approach (TSA) and paraventricular oblique sagittal (POS) group in 1:1 ratio. All patients received a standard antiviral treatment and rescue analgesics besides TPVB. Primary outcome was HZ illness burden (HZ-BOI) measured by a severity-by-duration composite pain assessment during 30 days. The non-inferiority margin (NIM) was set at - 10. Secondary outcomes included visual analog pain scores (VAS) and Kolcaba's General Comfort Questionnaire discomfortable scores (GCQ) during block needle insertion, quality of life (QoL), and PHN incidence during follow-up. Adverse events were also recorded. RESULTS: VAS pain scores (30 (IQR: 20, 40) vs. 65 (IQR: 45, 90), p < 0.001) and GCQ discomfortable scores (p < 0.001) were significantly lower in the POS group during needle insertion. The POS approach was not inferior to the proved TSA method in terms of BOI-30AUC when the lower limit of 95% confidence interval (CI) of two mean differences (13.54 (95% CI - 3.55, 30.63)) lay within the NIM. There were no differences between the two groups in BOI-30-90AUC, and BOI-90-180AUC (p = 0.260 and 0.182). Greater QoL improvement and lower PHN incidence were comparable between the two groups. No serious adverse events occurred. CONCLUSIONS: US-guided TPVB using less-invasive POS technique was as an optimal early intervention to reduce ZAP and a possible preventive strategy for PHN. TRIAL REGISTRATION: The study was retrospectively registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry on November 15, 2022 (ChiCTR2200065783).

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To estimate long-term efficacy and safety for maxillary trigeminal neuralgia (TN) using radiofrequency thermocoagulation (RFT) targeted on Gasserian ganglion, and to identify the factors which may influence outcomes after procedure. METHODS: From 2006 to 2019, 1070 patients underwent RFT for the treatment of medically refractory maxillary TN was included. All patients were followed up for at least 2 years. Outcomes and complications were recorded and analysed. Logistic regression analysis was employed to identify risk factors of long-term pain recurrence. Prognostic value was calculated from receiver-operating characteristic curve (ROC). RESULTS: Longitudinal analysis was taken place for 97 non-responders (9.1%) with ineffective pain relief, 253 responders (23.6%) with pain recurrence and 720 responders (67.3%) without pain recurrence. The median pain-free survival (PFS) was 112.0 months (95% CI: 107.5, 116.5). The pain-free rates were 89.9% (95% CI: 88.0-91.8%) at 1 year, 83.8% (95% CI: 81.5-86.1%) at 2 years, 75.4% (95% CI: 72.7-78.1%) at 5 years and 70.2% (95% CI: 67.4-73.0%) at 10 years. Atypical facial pain (HR = 5.373, 95% CI: 2.623-11.004, p < .001), previous facial numbness (HR = 5.224, 95% CI: 3.107-8.784, p < .001) and poor initial response to medication (HR = 3.185, 95% CI: 2.087-4.860, p < .001) were independently associated with long-term pain recurrence. Patients with prognostic index (PI) > 0.25 were identified as high-risk for recurrent TN (HR = 5.575, 95% CI: 3.991-7.788, p < .001). New and worsen facial hypoesthesia was recorded in 77.9% of patients corresponding with BNI score II-IV, and 18.7% reported improved sensation. Severe complication incidence including troublesome dysesthaesia, keratitis and masseter weakness was higher in 80 °C group. CONCLUSIONS: Favourable outcomes were achieved in terms of long-term pain relief and complications rate after RFT for maxillary TN. Patients with typical facial pain, normal facial sensation, and good initial response to medications may have favourable long-term outcomes.Key messagesThis is a retrospective analysis of radiofrequency thermocoagulation (RFT) targeted on Gasserian ganglion for the treatment of maxillary trigeminal neuralgia (TN) during long-term follow-up. Recurrence-free survival among a large sample was assessed and risk factors associated with long-term pain recurrence was identified. It has been verified that inadvertent damage of ophthalmic and mandibular division causes ophthalmic and masticatory complications. Therefore, a more precise needle tip position and thermocoagulation using a relatively low temperature was recommended.
