Patients with uncontrolled hyperthyroidism presenting as an emergency are at considerable risk. The anesthetic management of a thyrotoxic patient undergoing incidental emergency surgery is discussed. We focus on the intraoperative problems and, above all, postoperative pain management with regional anesthesia.

After removal of artefacts, the mean monitoring time was 22 h08 (8 h54). All patients had impaired cerebral autoregulation during their monitoring time. The mean IAR index was 17 (9.5) %. During H 0 H 6 and H 18 H 24 , the majority of our patients; respectively 53 and 71 % had an IAR index > 10 %. Conclusion According to our data, patients with septic shock had impaired cerebral autoregulation within the first 24 hours of their admission in the ICU. In our patients, we described a variability of distribution of impaired autoregulation according to time. ReferencesSchramm P, Klein KU, Falkenberg L, et al.
