Reversal of Pipecuronium-Induced Moderate Neuromuscular Block with Sugammadex in the Presence of a Sevoflurane Anesthetic: A Randomized Trial [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Pipecuronium is a steroidal neuromuscular blocking agent. Sugammadex, a relaxant binding [gamma]-cyclodextrin derivative, reverses the effect of rocuronium, vecuronium, and pancuronium.

Pharmacodynamic behaviour of rocuronium in the elderly [PDF]
This study compared the potency and time course of action of rocuronium (ORG 9426) in elderly and young patients during nitrous oxide-opioid anaesthesia. One hundred ASA physical status I-II patients (60, aged 65-80 yr, and 40, aged 20-45 yr) were studied by measuring the force of contraction of the adductor pollicis in response to train-of-four ...

Do Complexity Measures of Frontal EEG Distinguish Loss of Consciousness in Geriatric Patients Under Anesthesia? [PDF]
While geriatric patients have a high likelihood of requiring anesthesia, they carry an increased risk for adverse cognitive outcomes from its use. Previous work suggests this could be mitigated by better intraoperative monitoring using indexes defined by

Optimal precurarizing dose of rocuronium to decrease fasciculation and myalgia following succinylcholine administration [PDF]
BackgroundSuccinylcholine commonly produces frequent adverse effects, including muscle fasciculation and myalgia. The current study identified the optimal dose of rocuronium to prevent succinylcholine-induced fasciculation and myalgia and evaluated the ...

A comparative study of different induction techniques (Propofol-Placebo, Propofol-Ephedrine and Propofol- Placebo-Crystalloid) on intubating conditions after rocuronium administration [PDF]
This was a prospective randomized double blind controlled study to compare intubating conditions at 60 seconds with rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg by using three different induction techniques: propofol-placebo (PP), propofol-ephedrine (PE) and propofol ...

ABSTRACT Background Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols reduce length of stay, complications, and costs for elective surgical procedures. It remains challenging to implement ERAS concepts in the acute trauma patient due to deranged physiological reserve from the penetrating or blunt trauma producing altered physiology.
