| Abstract | Background Deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery is usually performed with the patients located in a half-sitting position. Therefore, complications associated with such position accompany, such as venous air embolism (VAE), et al. However, because the patients are fully conscious during the surgery, they may have observable manifestations related to the complications that are otherwise inconspicuous in generally anesthetic surgeries. Thus, we designed this study to investigate the intraoperative manifestations of the potentially dangerous complication of VAE in the DBS surgery. Methods The medical records of a series of 705 consecutive patients who underwent DBS surgery in our hospital have been retrospectively reviewed. The clinical features, intraoperative manifestations and treatment of these patients were analyzed for evidence of VAE. The correlation between the cough intensity and other clinical features were investigated. Results Evidence of VAE were found in 16 patients. Statistical analyses showed that severe cough is associated with greater age (p = 0.045), longer coughing time (p = 0.001), more intensive tremor (p = 0.032), more complaints (p = 0.036), greater influences (p = 0.009), more treatment (p = 0.003) and longer hospitalization (p = 0.003). Conclusions Intraoperative intense and unremitting cough may be a noticeable indicator of possible VAE. Early recognition and effective management are essential to prevent unfavorable outcomes in such cases. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
