In Brief BACKGROUND: Postoperative residual neuromuscular blockade (NMB), defined as a train-of-four (TOF) ratio of <0.9, is an established risk factor for critical postoperative respiratory events and increased morbidity. At present, little known about the occurrence NMB in Canada. The RECITE (Residual Curarization its Incidence at Tracheal Extubation) study was prospective observational 8 hospitals Canada investigating incidence severity NMB. METHODS: Adult patients undergoing open or...
An attractive option to reduce hospital length of stay (LOS) after hip or knee joint replacement (THA, TKA) is follow the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery principles (ERAS) improve patient experience a level where they will feel confident leave for home earlier. The objective this study was evaluate implementation short-stay protocol following ERAS principles. We hypothesized that our THA and TKA would result in lower complication rate, shorter LOS reduced direct health care costs compared...
The NOL index is based on multiparametric analysis of heart rate (HR), skin conductance, wave plethysmography, and their time derivative. aim this study was to evaluate the detect standardized nociceptive stimuli with various remifentanil dosages under general anesthesia.A prospective, observational at a single center (NCT02602379) included 40 ASA I III patients undergoing laparotomy remifentanil-desflurane anesthesia epidural analgesia. A tetanic stimulation applied (forearm) intravenous...
Residual neuromuscular blockade can be evaluated using acceleromyography, tactile assessment of train-of-four (TOF), double-burst stimulation (DBS), 50-Hz tetanus, or 100-Hz tetanus. Nerve at the hand wrist. We compared all these tests both sites stimulation. Rocuronium was given to 32 patients under sevoflurane anesthesia. The mechanomyographic adductor pollicis TOF ratio measured one extremity. In other, wrist, by random allocation, and acceleromyographic measured. During recovery, a...
To study the effect of heat on absorption intraperitoneal (IP) oxaliplatin using a murine model.Because its efficiency in systemic treatment colorectal cancer, is currently used hyperthermic chemotherapy (HIPEC) for peritoneal carcinomatosis. However, properties when administered by IP route have not been well characterized preclinical studies.Under general anesthesia, 35 Sprague-Dawley rats were submitted to 3 different doses (460, 920, and 1840 mg/m(2)) at perfusion temperatures (37, 40,...
Context Variability of American Society Anesthesiologists' (ASA) physical status scores attributed to the same patient by multiple physicians has been reported in several studies. In these studies, population was limited and diseases that induced disagreement were not analysed. Objectives To evaluate reproducibility ASA assessment on a large population, as used current practice before scheduled surgery. Design Multicentre, randomised, blinded cross-over observational study. Methods During...
BACKGROUND Nitrous oxide (N 2 O) has been used since the 19th century for its analgesic, antinociceptive and anxiolytic effects during surgical procedures in awake anaesthetised patients. However, quantification of noxious stimuli that occur under general anaesthesia is a constant challenge anaesthesiologists, recently two new indices have developed to assess intra-operative nociception. OBJECTIVE The aim this study was quantify with as well more classical clinical parameters effect N O...
BACKGROUND Although ketamine, a NMDA-receptor antagonist, tends to increase the bispectral index (BIS), it remains widely used analgesic whenever administered in low doses during major surgery. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was compare impact intravenous ketamine (given either as continuous infusion or bolus) on BIS and desflurane administration postoperative outcomes between groups. DESIGN Prospective, randomised, parallel-group, open-label study. SETTING University hospital,...
Advances in the treatment of congenital heart disease have led to a new group adolescents or adults patients with cardiac anomalies. The anaesthetic management these can be challenging especially when they are scheduled for major noncardiac surgery inducing haemodynamic instability. We report case 14‐year‐old boy posterior spinal fusion idiopathic scoliosis who underwent Fontan operation infancy pulmonary atresia right ventricle hypoplasia. preoperative investigations and described.
BACKGROUND: We hypothesized that, compared to remifentanil, dexmedetomidine used for endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) performed under monitored anesthesia care (MAC) in nonintubated patients would result fewer episodes of major respiratory adverse events (number bradypnea, apnea or desaturation) but no difference satisfaction with perioperative conditions. METHODS: Sixty (American Society Anesthesiologists physical status I–III) scheduled undergo...
Evaluate the impact of deep neuromuscular blockade on intraoperative nociception Deep has been shown to improve surgical conditions and postoperative outcomes compared moderate in laparoscopic surgery. Still, its opioid requirement never assessed.
