Concrete Structure Inspired 3D‐Printed Framework Mechanically Reinforced Zwitterionic Hydrogel for Efficient Postoperative Abdominal Adhesion Prevention

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by the establishment process and structure of concrete, a 3D‐printed PCL framework‐reinforced composite hydrogel is developed to overcome the mechanical limits of the original zwitterionic hydrogel toward clinic application of postoperative adhesion prevention.

The influence of storage time and temperature on propofol concentrations in canine blood and plasma [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2017
Propofol is an intravenous anesthetic commonly used due to its favorable pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile. There are discrepancies in the literature about the most appropriate sample for determining propofol concentrations. Although plasma has

SIRT3 Enhances the Protective Role of Propofol in Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction via Activating Autophagy Mediated by AMPK/mTOR Pathway

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience-Landmark, 2022
Background: Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a common complication after surgery and anesthesia. In this study, we aimed to determine the neuroprotective mechanism of Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) and propofol in POCD. Methods: The cognitive dysfunction

The Growth of Microorganisms in Propofol and Mixtures of Propofol and Lidocaine

open access: yesSurvey of Anesthesiology, 1999
Propofol emulsion supports bacterial growth. Extrinsic contamination of propofol has been implicated as an etiological event in postsurgical infections. When added to propofol, local anesthetics (e.g., lidocaine) alleviate the pain associated with injecting it. Because local anesthetics have antimicrobial activity, we determined whether lidocaine would

Propofol for gastrointestinal endoscopy

open access: yesUnited European Gastroenterology journal, 2018
Most gastrointestinal endoscopic procedures are now performed with sedation. Moderate sedation using benzodiazepines and opioids continues to be widely used, but propofol sedation is becoming more popular because its unique pharmacokinetic properties ...

Refractory Status Epilepticus and Therapeutic Uncertainties: a Comprehensive Review on Targeting Neuroinflammation and Rationale for Developing a Platform Trial

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Refractory status epilepticus (RSE) is a life‐threatening neurological emergency with high rates of death and long‐term disability, but treatments for it are often based on limited evidence. RSE is now understood to involve neuroinflammation, which has led to the exploration of anti‐inflammatory and immunomodulatory agents like Tocilizumab. Traditional

Efeitos do propofol sobre o sistema de condução cardíaca Efectos del propofol sobre el sistema de conducción cardíaco Effects of propofol on the cardiac conduction system

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Anestesiologia, 2010
JUSTIFICATIVA E OBJETIVOS: Alguns estudos têm demonstrado que o uso do propofol é, algumas vezes, associado a bradiarritmias ou reversão de arritmias para ritmo sinusal.

Hemodynamic Stability during Induction of Anesthesia in Elderly Patients: Propofol + Ketamine versus Propofol + Etomidate [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular and Thoracic Research, 2013
Introduction: Various methods have been recommended to prevent hemodynamic instability caused by propofol induction. Current study evaluates hemodynamic effects of ketamine and propofol in comparison to etomidate and propofol during anesthesia induction.

Propofol withdrawal seizures (or not) [PDF]

open access: yesSeizure, 2008
Propofol is associated with abnormal motor events resembling seizures, the exact nature of these events remains to be elucidated. We describe here a case of seizure-like activity after propofol-induced conscious sedation accompanied by a prolactin rise, together suggesting that the event was ictal.

A Soft‐Tip Hydraulically Steerable Catheter for Enhanced Flexibility and Safety in Vascular Interventions

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study introduces a hydraulically steerable catheter with a soft tip in vascular procedures. The steering soft tip achieves a minimal diameter of 2.6 mm and supports a 180° bend. Real‐time shape and position tracking, facilitated by segmentation and endpoint detection techniques, improves navigation.
