Bone Remodeling

Bone Remodeling

Bone remodeling is a continuous and balanced process of bone resorption by osteoclasts and bone formation by osteoblasts. In adults, it helps maintain bone mass and calcium homeostasis. While mechanical stress can stimulate turnover as part of the normal maintenance and reparative process, several hormones also regulate bone remodeling.

Bone Disorders

Bone Disorders

Aging and its effect on bone remodeling is the most common cause of bone disorders. In young and healthy people, bone deposition and resorption happen at an equal rate to maintain optimal bone health.
Bone deposition is also affected by the levels of sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone that promote osteoblast activity and bone matrix synthesis. When the level of these hormones decreases due to aging, it causes a reduction in bone deposition. As a result, bone resorption by osteoclasts...

Bone Marrow Sampling and Transplants

Bone Marrow Sampling and Transplants

Bone marrow transplant is a potential cure for several diseases, including cancer and specific genetic disorders. Notably, this procedure is applicable for patients suffering from aplastic anemia, certain types of leukemia, severe combined immunodeficiency disease (SCID), Hodgkin's disease, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, multiple myeloma, thalassemia, sickle-cell disease, and certain cancers.
The transplant begins with high doses of chemotherapy and radiation treatment, which aim to destroy...

Area of Science:

Neurosurgery
Anesthesiology
Audiology

Background:

Deaf patients present unique communication challenges during medical procedures.
Awake craniotomy requires patient cooperation and communication for language mapping.
Standard anesthetic protocols may not adequately address the needs of deaf patients.

Purpose of the Study:

To describe the anesthetic management for a deaf patient undergoing awake craniotomy.
To highlight necessary accommodations for deaf patients during neurosurgery.
To present a novel awake-awake-asleep anesthetic technique.

Main Methods:

Detailed anesthetic management for a 45-year-old deaf male with a right cerebral glioma.
Operating room environment modifications including lighting, positioning, and pulse oximetry.
Adaptation of the operating room mask protocol for a sign language interpreter.
Implementation of an awake-awake-asleep anesthetic approach.

Main Results:

The patient communicated effectively throughout the procedure.
The cerebral glioma resection was successfully completed.
The patient tolerated the anesthetic management and surgical procedure well.

Conclusions:

Anesthesia providers must implement specific accommodations for deaf surgical patients.
Tailored anesthetic techniques, such as awake-awake-asleep, can ensure patient safety and procedural success.
Effective communication strategies are paramount for deaf patients undergoing awake craniotomy.
