The protective role of lidocaine in surgeries involving trigeminal nerve manipulation: a meta-analysis of trigeminocardiac reflex prevention. [PDF]
The trigeminocardiac reflex (TCR) is activated when the trigeminal nerve is manipulated through mechanical pressure, traction, or irritation. This leads to a rapid increase in parasympathetic activity, resulting in a decrease in heart rate (HR) and blood

Coronary Spasm in Neurosurgical Patients and Role of Trigeminocardiac Reflex [PDF]
Background. Coronary artery spasm (CAS) is a rarely reported complication in neurosurgical patients and its main causative mechanism was attributed to vagal mediated responses. However, these may be the unusual manifestations of trigeminal cardiac reflex

Evaluation of Trigeminocardiac Reflex in Patients Undergoing Elevation of Zygomatic Fractures. [PDF]
Aim Trigeminocardiac reflex (TCR) manifests as typical hemodynamic perturbations including a sudden lowering of heart rate, mean arterial blood pressure (MABP), cardiac arrhythmias, and asystole.

Case Report: Trigeminocardiac Reflex in Endovascular Recanalization of Intracranial Internal Carotid Artery Occlusion. [PDF]
Background The trigeminocardiac reflex (TCR) is a unique brainstem reflex that manifests as sudden negative hemodynamic changes. Although rare, TCR may develop during interventional neuroradiology procedures.

Atypical trigeminocardiac reflex during intranasal dexmedetomidine sedation of a 6-month-old premature baby. [PDF]
The trigeminocardiac reflex (TCR) is an established brainstem reflex leading to parasympathetic dysrhythmias—including haemodynamic irregularities, apnoea and gastric hypermotility—during stimulation of any sensory branches of the trigeminal nerve.

Prophylactic intra-arterial injection of lidocaine: a novel strategy to prevent endovascular embolization-induced trigeminocardiac reflex. [PDF]
Background Trigeminocardiac reflex (TCR) is a brainstem reflex that can lead to hemodynamic instability manifested as bradycardia, decrease/increase of mean arterial pressure (MAP) and, in the worst case scenario, asystole during surgery.

Torsade de pointes during an oral surgery caused by a combination of herbal medicine-induced pseudoaldosteronism and trigeminocardiac reflex. [PDF]
Licorice can cause pseudoaldosteronism and QT prolongation as its side effect. Trigeminal nerve stimulation, including surgical intervention involving the face, can cause transient bradycardia, known as the trigeminocardiac reflex.

A near catastrophe from trigeminocardiac reflex [PDF]
Trigeminocardiac reflex is a brainstem reflex that results from stimulation of any branch of the trigeminal nerve along its course. It produces a constellation of signs and symptoms decrease in blood pressure (BP) and heart rate, dysrhythmias, apnoea and
