Anesthetic Management of a Pregnant Mother with Acute Renal Calculi Posted for Ursl with DJS

Abstract

Pregnancy complicated by acute renal calculi poses a unique challenge for anaesthesiologists and urologists alike. This abstract highlights the essential considerations and challenges encountered in managing anesthesia for a pregnant woman scheduled for ureterorenoscopy lithotripsy (URSL) with double-J stent (DJS) placement. The abstract discusses the physiological changes during pregnancy, emphasizing the impact on renal function and anaesthetic management. It also addresses the risks associated with anesthesia and surgery in pregnancy, including foetal considerations. The role of preoperative evaluation, choice of anesthesia technique, intraoperative monitoring, and postoperative care are outlined to ensure optimal maternal and foetal outcomes. Moreover, strategies for pain management, prevention of perioperative complications, and coordination between the obstetric, urologic, and anesthesia teams are emphasized. This abstract aims to provide insights into the comprehensive approach required for the successful anaesthetic management of pregnant women with acute renal calculi undergoing URSL with DJS placement
