Laryngeal mask airways

LMA generation Examples 1st Generation (Only one port) – Only Tracheal lumen – No Esophageal lumen(so don’t prevent aspiration) • Classic LMA • Flexible / Flexometallic LMA:    – It doesn’t block after bending    – use for prone position surgery when Sx duration is short. • Cobra PLA (peri laryngeal airway) • Ambu aura

Hormone sensitive lipase (HSL) and Lipoproteins

Feature HSL Lipoproteins Definition Enzyme that hydrolyzesstored triglycerides inadipose tissue Complexes of lipids andproteins that transport lipidsin blood Location Adipose tissue  (inside adipocytes) Circulating in plasma Function Mobilizes stored fat → breaks triglycerides → FFA + Glycerol Transport triglycerides, cholesterol, and phospholipids (PL) Actively functions during Fasting state (to release storedfat for energy) Fed state

Goodsall’s rule

The main purpose of Goodsall’s rule is to help predict and localize the “internal opening” of an anal fistula based on the position of the external opening. • External opening that are “located anteriorly” are joined by single / Short straight tract (FMGE Dec 2021) • External opening that are “located posteriorly” are joined by long curved tracts,
