Effect of depth of neuromuscular blockade on the abdominal space during pneumoperitoneum establishment in laparoscopic surgery.
2015
To evaluate the effect of neuromuscular blockade (NMB) upon the abdominal space during pneumoperitoneum establishment in laparoscopic surgery, comparing moderate NMB and deep NMB.Prospective, randomized, crossover clinical trial.Operating room.Seventy-six American Society of Anesthesiologists 1 to 2 patients scheduled for elective laparoscopic surgery.Two independent evaluations were performed at the establishment of pneumoperitoneum for a preset intraabdominal pressures (IAPs) of 8 and 12 mm Hg, both during moderate NMB (train-of-four count, 1-3) and deep NMB (posttetanic count,5). Rocuronium was used to induce NMB, and sugammadex was used for reversal.We evaluated (i) the volume of CO2 in…
Influence of depth of neuromuscular blockade on surgical conditions during low-pressure pneumoperitoneum laparoscopic cholecystectomy: A randomized b…
2017
Abstract Study objective To evaluate the influence of neuromuscular blockade (NMB) on surgical conditions during low-pressure pneumoperitoneum (8mmHg) laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC), while comparing moderate and deep NMB. Secondary objective was to evaluate if surgical conditions during low-pressure pneumoperitoneum LC performed with deep NMB could be comparable to those provided during standard-pressure pneumoperitoneum (12mmHg) LC. Design Prospective, randomized, blinded clinical trial. Setting Operating room. Patients Ninety ASA 1–2 patients scheduled for elective LC. Interventions Patients were allocated into 3 groups: Group 1: low-pressure pneumoperitoneum with moderate-NMB (1–3 TOF…
Efecto de la profundidad del bloqueo neuromuscular sobre el espacio abdominal y las condiciones quirúrgicas durante la cirugía laparoscópica abdomina…
2017
Introducción: La anestesia aparece como un factor clave en el desarrollo del proceso asistencial de la cirugía laparoscópica, por su capacidad de actuar tanto sobre los factores barrera que condicionan el período postoperatorio y el alta hospitalaria precoz, como por la posibilidad de influir en la optimización de las condiciones quirúrgicas. Sin embargo, mientras que existen recomendaciones con una evidencia científica de grado A en cuanto a intervenciones sobre el control de las náuseas/vómitos postoperatorios(NVPO), estrategias para el control del dolor postquirúrgico o para la mejora en la calidad de la recuperación postoperatoria, la evidencia científica presente hasta el momento en re…
ROCURONIO/SUGAMMADEX VS ROCURONIO/ NEOSTIGMINA NELLA CHIRURGIA BARIATRICA PER BYPASS
2013
Obiettivo. La chirurgia bariatrica è caratterizzata da un incre- mento di morbidità e mortalità post operatoria tre volte maggiore dei pazienti normopeso, in assenza di altri fattori di rischio. La decurarizzazione efficace, riduce il rischio di cura- rizzazione residua post operatoria, e le complicanze ad essa associate 1. Obiettivo del nostro studio è di valutare l’efficacia in termini di recupero dell’attività neuromuscolare all’accele- romiografia e in termini di ripresa clinicamente obiettivabile della Neostigmina vs Sugammadex. Materiali e metodi. Abbiamo arruolato 40 pazienti sottoposti a chirurgia bariatrica per bypass, suddivisi in due gruppi di età >18 anni, BMI >30 kg/m2, classe …
Post-anaesthesia pulmonary complications after use of muscle relaxants (POPULAR): a multicentre, prospective observational study
2019
Background: Results from retrospective studies suggest that use of neuromuscular blocking agents during general anaesthesia might be linked to postoperative pulmonary complications. We therefore aimed to assess whether the use of neuromuscular blocking agents is associated with postoperative pulmonary complications. Methods: We did a multicentre, prospective observational cohort study. Patients were recruited from 211 hospitals in 28 European countries. We included patients (aged ≥18 years) who received general anaesthesia for any in-hospital procedure except cardiac surgery. Patient characteristics, surgical and anaesthetic details, and chart review at discharge were prospectively collecte…
Review of difficult airway management in thoracic surgery
2018
The management of difficult airway (DA) in thoracic surgery is more difficult due to the need for lung separation or isolation and frequent presence of associated upper and lower airway problems. We performed an article review analysing 818 papers published with clinical evidence indexed in Pubmed that allowed us to develop an algorithm. The best airway management in predicted DA is tracheal intubation and independent bronchial blockers guided by fibroscopy maintaining spontaneous ventilation. For unpredicted DA, the use of videolaryngoscopes is recommended initially, and adequate neuromuscular relaxation (rocuronium/sugammadex), among other maneuvers. In both cases, double lumen tubes shou…
Repeated sugammadex reversal of muscle relaxation during lumbar spine surgery with intraoperative neurophysiological multimodal monitoring
2016
Intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring during spine surgery is usually acomplished avoiding muscle relaxants. A case of intraoperative sugammadex partial reversal of the neuromuscular blockade allowing adequate monitoring during spine surgery is presented. A 38 year-old man was scheduled for discectomy and vertebral arthrodesis throughout anterior and posterior approaches. Anesthesia consisted of total intravenous anesthesia plus rocuronium. Intraoperatively monitoring was needed, and the muscle relaxant reverted twice with low dose sugammadex in order to obtain adequate responses. The doses of sugammadex used were conservatively selected (0.1 mg/kg boluses increases, total dose neede…
Neuronal effects of Sugammadex in combination with Rocuronium or Vecuronium.
2017
Rocuronium (ROC) and Vecuronium (VEC) are the most currently used steroidal non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking (MNB) agents. Sugammadex (SUG) rapidly reverses steroidal NMB agents after anaesthesia. The present study was conducted in order to evaluate neuronal effects of SUG alone and in combination with both ROC and VEC. Using MTT, CASP-3 activity and Western-blot we determined the toxicity of SUG, ROC or VEC in neurons in primary culture. SUG induces apoptosis/necrosis in neurons in primary culture and increases cytochrome C (CytC), apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF), Smac/Diablo and Caspase 3 (CASP-3) protein expression. Our results also demonstrated that both ROC and VEC prevent these…
Sugammadex, a Neuromuscular Blockade Reversal Agent, Causes Neuronal Apoptosis in Primary Cultures
2013
Sugammadex, a γ-cyclodextrin that encapsulates selectively steroidal neuromuscular blocking agents, such as rocuronium or vecuronium, has changed the face of clinical neuromuscular pharmacology. Sugammadex allows a rapid reversal of muscle paralysis. Sugammadex appears to be safe and well tolerated. Its blood-brain barrier penetration is poor (< 3% in rats), and thus no relevant central nervous toxicity is expected. However the blood brain barrier permeability can be altered under different conditions (i.e. neurodegenerative diseases, trauma, ischemia, infections, or immature nervous system). Using MTT, confocal microscopy, caspase-3 activity, cholesterol quantification and Western-blot we …
