Abstract Background Neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs) are routinely used in anesthesia practice. An undetected, incomplete recovery of neuromuscular function at the end surgery potentially exposes patients to clinical deterioration postoperative period. The aim this study was investigate incidence residual blockade (RNMB) a cohort receiving NMBAs. Methods We enrolled 90 spontaneously breathing adult admitted room (RR) after completion surgeries having received least 1 dose NMBA....
Summary Remifentanil has gained the confidence of anesthesiologists and given a real opportunity to change way anesthesia is given. It can be considered ideal opioid despite many obstacles pediatric use: condition ‘off‐label’, lack wide randomized clinical trials, fear adverse events because its high potency. Experiences in field with this over years encouraged use. Use been associated N 2 0 volatile agents for general propofol total intravenous (TIVA). seems very useful sedation inside...
Summary Background Phenylephrine eye drops are widely used as mydriatic agent to reach the posterior segment of eye. In literature, many reports suggest a systemic absorption this source severe adverse drug reactions. Hence, we reviewed our experience with topical phenylephrine in ophthalmic surgery. Methods May 2006, following US guidelines publication, standard operating procedure was issued rooms standardize use practice. Two years later, after occurrence cluster serious reactions infants...
Interventional Oncology treatments grant low-risk mini-invasive alternatives to surgery for cancer patients. Percutaneous ablative therapies represent a cornerstone treatment of liver Among these, newly emerging one is represented by electrochemotherapy. Improvements in analgesia and sedation can nowadays offer optimal support procedures, serving as valid alternative general anesthesia. The intention this retrospective monocentric study report our preliminary experience on feasibility safety...
The excellent results with left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) have revolutionized the treatment options for end-stage heart failure. use of pulsatile is associated significant comorbidity and limited durability. axial-flow HeartMate II LVAD represents new generation devices. clinical this pump resulted in superior outcomes. We review technology, management, usage our experience.Between 3/2002 12/2008, 18 transplantable adult patients were supported on long-term at institution (13 men,...
Premature babies experience pain and require adequate analgesia for any painful procedure. Fentanyl morphine resulted in safe effective anesthesia the past; however, their pharmacokinetics may be impaired preterm with multiorgan failure. Remifentanil, despite absence of available pharmacokinetic data infants few reports newborns, demonstrated its advantages children undergoing either major surgery or minor procedures has been shown to useful even neonates, because elimination is independent...
Abstract Aims Pulmonary artery pulsatility index (PAPi) is an indicator of right ventricular (RV) function and independent predictor failure (RVF) following left assist device (LVAD) implantation. Administration vasodilator challenge during heart catheterization (RHC) could reduce RV workload allowing a better assessment its functional reserve. Methods results Patients undergoing LVAD implantation at our Institution between May 2013 August 2021 were enrolled. Only patients who had undergone...
: Video-assisted minimally invasive mitral valve surgery can be performed through different approaches. The aim of the study was to report our early results and compare external transthoracic aortic clamping with endoaortic balloon occlusion techniques according experience.: Between January 2000 March 2010, 138 patients (103 women, aged 58.4 ± 10.2 years) underwent video-assisted a right thoracotomy. Cardiopulmonary bypass instituted by femoral arterial bicaval cannulation active venous...

Abstract Background Children undergoing diagnostic and interventional radiology procedures often require sedation to achieve immobility analgesia if the procedure is painful. In past decades, leading scientific organizations have developed evidence‐based guidelines for procedural in children outside of operating room. Their recommendations are being applied radiology. However, some questions remain open regarding specific aspects contextualized setting, such as elective prone sedation,...
Objective. Aim of this study was to compare the hemodynamic profiles 2 aortic valve bioprostheses: Carpentier Edwards Perimount Magna (CEPM) and Trifecta valve. Methods. 100 patients who underwent AVR for severe symptomatic AS between September 2011 October 2012 were analyzed by means standard trans-thoracic Doppler-echocardiography. Results. Mean peak gradients significantly lower 21 mm vs CEPM (11 ± 4 15 mmHg, 20 6 26 7 respectively; all p < 0.05) 23 (8 14 17 25 9 mmHg; 0.05)....
Children with neuromuscular diseases (NMDs) often display respiratory muscle weakness which increases the risk of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) after general anaesthesia. Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) associated mechanical insufflation-exsufflation (MI-E) can reduce incidence and severity PPCs. The aim this study was to report our experience a shared perioperative protocol that consists in using NIV combined MI-E improve outcome NMD children (IT-NEUMA-Ped).We conducted...
