Coxibs can be regarded as an effective way of postoperative pain treatment with proven analgesic and opioid-saving effects. When comparing the opioid-saving effect after the large surgical interventions, COX-2 inhibitors are not inferior to NSAIDs and surpass paracetamol. The combination of coxibs and opiate receptors antagonists, as well as epidural analgesia is effective in the frames of multimodal analgesia. ⋯ It is assumed that the COX-2 inhibitors may inhibit vascular endothelial growth factor of the tumor and so inhibit angiogenesis of solitary tumors and metastases, without affecting the normal endothelium. Thus, today coxibs are not inferior in eficiency to certain opioid analgesics and have improved safety profile compared with traditional NSAIDs. These qualities allow to consider them as a group of non-opioid analgesics for postoperative analgesia.

Randomized Controlled Trial[The use of central acting analgesic nefopam in postoperative analgesia in cardiac surgery patients].
A prospective, randomized, comparative study was conducted. 3 analgesia protocols were used: 1) patient controlled analgesia (PCA) with trimeperidine in combination with a nefopam constant infusion; 2) PCA with trimeperidine in combination with a nefopam bolus; 3) PCA with trimeperidine separately during early postoperative period in cardiac surgery patients. The study included 60 patients agedf rom 40 to 65 years of age (20 patients in each group). The analgesia efficacy was evaluated with a 5-point verbal rating scale (VRS) for pain intensity and inspiratory lung capacity (ILC), measured with incentive spirometer. ⋯ The combination of nefopam and trimeperidine led to a more pronounced analgetic effect. Trimeperidine consumption was significantly lower in nefopam groups than in the group of isolated PCA. Wholly adverse effects were associated with trimeperidine and were dose-related The incidence of nausea, vomiting, dizziness, weakness, bowel paresis was significantly higher in isolated PCA group than in the other two groups.

Comparative Study[Respiratory support in anaesthetic management for thoracic surgery and their comparative characteristics: over 2000 anaesthesia experience].
The article deals with the first comparative study of haemodynamics, gas exchange, and metabolic lung finction in patients with underlying respiratory and cardiovascular diseases. Different anaesthesia and ventilation (conventional AVL, OLV differentiated ALV) techniques were used. Respiratory support methodology with the use of HFV or CPAP during the main phase of thoracic surgery in patients with severe associated cardio-respiratory diseases was developed. Indications for differentiated AL V in thoracic surgery were developed.

[Peripheric blockades in plastic and reconstructive surgery: up-to-date trends and prospects (a 30-year experience)].
The article presents the own 30-year experience in the use of more than 1000 prolonged peripheral nerves and plexus block anaesthesia in reconstructive surgery, based on experimental and clinical studies. The evolution peripheric blockades technique is given:from a separate anaesthesia method to balanced anesthesia based on peripheric blockades. The current state of the problem was analyzed according to the literature.

Case Reports[Video laryngoscopy and retromolar endoscopy in maxillofacial surgery].
The article presents successful intubation experience in 54 patients. Laryngoscopy was performed with McGrath Series 5 laryngoscopy with a difficult airway blade ("Airway Medical") in 46 patients, and retromolar endoscope Bonfils ("Karl Storz") in 9 patients. Technical traits, resulting from the use video laryngoscopy and retromolar endoscope are discussed. ⋯ The use of videolaryngoscopy and retromolar intubation is a real support for standard laryngoscopy and fiberbronchoscopy during orotracheal intubation including difficult ones. Difficult intubation may result from mouth opening restriction, atlantoocciital immobility and orolaryngopharynx deformation because of edema and rigidity, for example after an osteotomy or tumors presence. Videolaryngoscopy master is easier than retromolar endoscopy, because videolaryngoscope construction, laryngoscopy technique and larynx structures visualization are similar to the classic MAC blades.
