Estimation of the effect-site equilibration rate constant using the time-to-peak effect of muscle relaxants measured by train-of-four stimulation during general anesthesia induction [PDF]

Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2018
Background The concept of the effect-site concentration of anesthetic agents is important. The effect compartment model can be explained using the concepts of effect-site concentration and effect-site equilibration rate constant (ke0).

Error Traps in Pediatric Neuromuscular Block

Pediatric Anesthesia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Neuromuscular blocking agents are essential for safe pediatric anesthesia but remain a frequent source of preventable morbidity when misused, inadequately monitored, or incompletely reversed. Children, particularly neonates and infants, are especially vulnerable to residual neuromuscular block due to developmental pharmacological ...

Penile intracavernosal injection of succinylcholine for laryngospasm management during hypospadias repair

UroPrecision, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Laryngospasm is a serious anesthetic complication that can lead to acute airway obstruction and hypoxemia. Standard management involves deepening anesthesia and administering succinylcholine intravenously (IV) or intramuscularly (IM). However, if IV access is lost or IM drug delivery is too slow, alternative routes are required.

Comparison of emergence agitation between succinylcholine and rocuronium-sugammadex in adults following closed reduction of a nasal bone fracture: a prospective randomized controlled trial

BMC Anesthesiology, 2019
Background Sugammadex allows rapid recovery from rocuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade. Succinylcholine is often used for brief surgeries but is associated with myalgia, headache, histamine release, and increased lactate levels. Thus, we hypothesized

Carrier screening in the reproductive setting—Are there medical implications for the heterozygote?—A guide for clinicians

Pregnancy, Volume 2, Issue 3, May 2026.
Abstract Carrier screening for genetic conditions performed preconception or during pregnancy allows identification of fetal risk for inherited autosomal recessive and X‐linked conditions. The goal is to identify at‐risk patients/couples and offer them reproductive options such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, prenatal testing, or targeted newborn
