   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Postoperative cognitive dysfunction; minor and major surgery; anaesthesia; depth of anaesthesia monitoring; auditory evoked potential; AAI; inflammatory marker; Medicin; Medicine;

   Abstract : Patients may suffer from various forms of postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD). In most cases, the impact on cognitive function is relatively transient but POCD can sometimes be long-lasting (> 1 year). Studies showing that up to one in four patients with known risk factors are affected by some form of cognitive loss. READ MORE

   Abstract : Background: Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a relatively common condition. In Sweden, the overall estimated prevalence of POP in the female population is 31% and the prevalence of symptomatic prolapse is 8–15%. The prevalence of POP increases with age. The lifetime risk of undergoing pelvic floor surgery is estimated to 11%. READ MORE

5. 3. Acupuncture in Obstetrics and Anaesthesia

   Abstract : The aims of the present thesis (I-V) were to evaluate the analgesic and adverse effects of manual acupuncture for low-back and pelvic pain during pregnancy (I) and for labour pain (II-III), and also to study the effects of low-frequency electro acupuncture (EA) on clinical physiological responses to skin incision in anaesthetized patients (IV-V). Acupuncture in obstetric patients (I-III) Manual acupuncture in obstetric patients was found to relieve pain in one prospective randomised (I) and two retrospective (II-III) studies. READ MORE

   Abstract : The bone cementation implantation syndrome (BCIS), as seen in orthopaedic patients, is characterised by intraoperative hypotension and hypoxia and loss of consciousness around the time of bone cementation. In a retrospective study, the incidence of and risk factors for the BCIS and its impact on mortality during cemented hemiarthroplasty for hip fracture were evaluated. READ MORE
