Effect of ropivacaine combined with pancuronium on neuromuscular transmission and effectiveness of neostigmine and 4-aminopyridine for blockade reversal: experimental study

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Anestesiologia, 2015
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The local anesthetic effects on neuromuscular junction and its influence on blockade produced by nondepolarizing neuromuscular blockers are still under-investigated; however, this interaction has been described in experimental ...

Anesthesia in the surgery of strabismus: role of anesthetic agents in the ocular deviation and surgical outcome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Purpose: To determine whether the changes in the ocular alignment following general anesthesia, maintained with two different inhalational anesthetic agents, sevoflurane and desflurane, can be used as a predictor for surgical outcomes in children with ...

Mechanism-Based Modeling of Neuromuscular Monitoring Measures During General Anesthesia

open access: yesIEEE Access
This study presents a mechanism-based model of neuromuscular transmission that incorporates the effects of Non-depolarizing Neuromuscular Blockers (NDNBs) used in general anesthesia. NDNBs act on acetylcholine receptors at both the pre- and post-synaptic

Peri-Operative Anaphylaxis—An Investigational Challenge

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
Patients with suspected peri-operative anaphylaxis (POP) require thorough investigation to identify underlying trigger(s) and enable safe anesthesia for subsequent surgery. The changing epidemiology of POP has been striking.

Rates and Equilibria for a Photoisomerizable Antagonist at the Acetylcholine Receptor of Electrophorus Electroplaques [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
Voltage-jump and light-flash experiments have been performed on isolated Electrophorus electroplaques exposed simultaneously to nicotinic agonists and to the photoisomerizable compound 2,2'-bis-[α-(trimethylammonium)methyl]-azobenzene (2BQ).

Neuromuscular blockers—a means of palliation? [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Ethics, 2002
As we die, our respiratory pattern is altered and we seem to gasp and struggle for each breath. Such gasping is commonly seen as a clear sign of dyspnoea and suffering by families and loved ones, however, it is unclear whether it is perceived at all by the dying person. Narcotics and sedatives do not seem to affect these gasping respirations.

Arachidonic Acid as a Possible Negative Feedback Inhibitor of Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors on Neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
Neuronal acetylcholine receptors, being highly permeable to calcium, are likely to regulate calcium-dependent events in neurons. Arachidonic acid is a membrane-permeant second messenger that can be released from membrane phospholipids by phospholipases ...
