Journal of Scientific Innovations in Anesthesia: A seed has been sown!

November 2026 · Vol. 1, Issue 3 (2026) · Pages 62-63

Dear Researchers,Research publication is an essential component of contemporary academic medicine, facilitating the dissemination of scientific knowledge, critical appraisal of evidence, and translation of research findings into clinical practice. Publication of high-quality research in internationally peer-reviewed, indexed journals can enhance an author's academic visibility and contribute to their research track r...

Clinical profile and coexisting pain generators in patients with facet arthropathy attending a tertiary pain clinic: A retrospective record review

November 2026 · Vol. 1, Issue 3 (2026) · Pages 64-69

Background: Patients with facet arthropathy who attend tertiary pain clinics often have other potential pain generators. Overlapping symptoms complicate attribution, but clinic-based descriptions of these combined presentations remain scarce.Materials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed outpatient records from 5 September 2019 through 9 April 2026. An electronic search returned 915 entries. After repeat visits w...

A comparative study between combination of sevoflurane and propofol with propofol alone for intubating condition and hemodynamic response

November 2026 · Vol. 1, Issue 3 (2026) · Pages 70-78

Background: Neuromuscular blocking agents are routinely used to facilitate tracheal intubation. In some patients, however, avoiding these drugs may be desirable because of their adverse effects and the possibility of residual neuromuscular blockade. Combining sevoflurane with a lower dose of propofol may be one way of achieving adequate anesthetic depth while limiting the cardiovascular effects of a larger propofol d...

Efficacy of preprocedural ultrasound-guided versus landmark-Guided spinal anesthesia in geriatric patients: A randomized comparative study

November 2026 · Vol. 1, Issue 3 (2026) · Pages 79-82

Background: Age-related degenerative changes in the lumbar spine frequently result in technical difficulty in standard landmark-guided spinal anesthesia in geriatric populations, leading to multiple needle insertions and manipulations. Preprocedural ultrasound offers non-invasive visualization of internal spine anatomy to align needle guidance.Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy of preprocedural ultrasound imaging c...

Effects of dexmedetomidine vs. fentanyl on neuro-hemodynamic variables and cerebral perfusion pressure during skull pin head holder application

November 2026 · Vol. 1, Issue 3 (2026) · Pages 83-89

Background and Aims: Application of skull pins can causes changes in the cerebral perfusion and its sequel can have deleterious effect. To compare the effect of dexmedetomidine and fentanyl in mitigating the hemodynamic responses, Bispectral index and Cerebral perfusion pressure changes to pin placement during elective craniotomies.Materials and Methods: This prospective randomized study was conducted on 60 patients...

Endotracheal intubation in severe post-burn mentosternal contracture: An anesthetist’s challenge: A case report

November 2026 · Vol. 1, Issue 3 (2026) · Pages 90-94

Background: Post-burn mentosternal contracture presents major challenges during airway management due to restricted mouth opening, distorted cervical anatomy, trachael deviation and limited neck mobility in reconstructive surgery.Case Presentation: A 19-year-old male with severe type 3b mentosternal contracture following extensive flame burns, who required reconstructive surgery. A planned strategy involving facemask...

Balancing sedation and responsiveness with dexmedetomidine–ketamine in pediatric marcus gunn jaw-winking syndrome: A case report

November 2026 · Vol. 1, Issue 3 (2026) · Pages 95-99

Marcus Gunn Jaw Winking Syndrome (MGJWS) is a rare congenital condition characterized by unilateral ptosis associated with synkinetic elevation of the upper eyelid during jaw movements. Patients with moderate-to-severe MGJWS often require surgical correction for cosmetic improvement and relief of visual axis obstruction. Intraoperative assessment of eyelid symmetry necessitates intermittent patient arousal, which pos...

Beyond the chair: Comprehensive care under general anesthesia in pediatric dentistry

June 2026 · Vol. 1, Issue 2 (2026) · Pages 45-49

Background: Uncooperative behavior and severe dental anxiety in young children frequently preclude the delivery of routine dental care, necessitating alternative management strategies. General anesthesia (GA) is an established option for such patients; however, its selection remains largely subjective in the absence of a standardized clinical decision-making tool. Case Presentation: A 5-year-old child with no signifi...

Anesthesia in a patient with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome: A case report

June 2026 · Vol. 1, Issue 2 (2026) · Pages 50-53

Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) is an inheritable group of connective tissue disorders characterized by joint hypermobility and instability, skin and vascular fragility and anomalies in various internal organs. Since collagen is found in multiple organ systems, distinct anesthesia considerations for each organ system have to be outlined as per patient symptoms. Anesthesia in EDS can be challenging due to involvement of...

Airway and positioning challenges in a patient with ankylosing spondylitis undergoing cholecystectomy: Role of intubating laryngeal mask airway and fiberoptic guidance

June 2026 · Vol. 1, Issue 2 (2026) · Pages 54-59

Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) produces progressive spinal rigidity, fixed deformity and restrictive lung disease, posing major challenges for airway management, positioning and ventilation. We report the anesthetic management of a 49‑year‑old man with severe AS, fixed cervicothoracic kyphosis, restrictive lung physiology and chronic voice change who presented for cholecystectomy. He could not lie supine and tolerated o...
