Motor Evoked Potentials Improve Targeting in Deep Brain Stimulation Surgery

open access: yesNeuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives One of the main challenges posed by the surgical deep brain stimulation (DBS) procedure is the successful targeting of the structures of interest and avoidance of side effects, especially in asleep surgery. Here, intraoperative motor evoked potentials (MEPs) might serve as tool to identify the pyramidal tract.

The Intraoperative Microlesion Effect Positively Correlates With the Short‐Term Clinical Effect of Deep Brain Stimulation in Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesNeuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objective During the surgical procedure of deep brain stimulation (DBS), insertion of an electrode in the subthalamic nucleus (STN) frequently causes a temporary improvement of motor symptoms, known as the microlesion effect (MLE). The objective of this study was to determine the correlation between the intraoperative MLE and the clinical ...

Neuromuscular Block and Video Laryngoscope to Facilitate Intubation-A Survey of Current Practice in Denmark and Sweden. [PDF]

open access: yesActa Anaesthesiol Scand
ABSTRACT Background Neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBA) provide optimal conditions for tracheal intubation. A high dose of opioid can be used as an alternative but may give suboptimal conditions for intubation. The use of a video laryngoscope for intubation might eliminate this potential difference.

Opioid suppression of conditioned anticipatory brain responses to breathlessness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
© 2017 The Authors Opioid painkillers are a promising treatment for chronic breathlessness, but are associated with potentially fatal side effects. In the treatment of breathlessness, their mechanisms of action are unclear.

A novel multivariate STeady-state index during general ANesthesia (STAN) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The assessment of the adequacy of general anesthesia for surgery, namely the nociception/anti-nociception balance, has received wide attention from the scientific community. Monitoring systems based on the frontal EEG/EMG, or autonomic state reactions (e.

The effects of rapid increases in desflurane and sevoflurane concentrations on spirometry in humans during balanced anesthesia with remifentanil [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The recently introduced open-target-controlled infusion (TCI) systems can be programmed with any pharmacokinetic model, and allow either plasma- or effect-site targeting. With effect-site targeting the goal is to achieve a user-defined target effect-site

Comparative effects of target-controlled infusion of anesthetic sufentanil and remifentanil on inflammatory factors and oxidative stress indicators in patients of colorectal cancer

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Inflammation, 2019
This study was designed to compare the recovery of target-controlled infusion of sufentanil and remifentanil in patients of colorectal cancer. In total, 104 patients were randomly divided into sufentanil and remifentanil groups.
