Relationship Between Glottic View and Intubation Force During Macintosh and Airtraq Laryngoscopy and Intubation

AUTHORS: Hindman, Bradley J. MD et al  Anesthesia & Analgesia: October 2022 – Volume 135 – Issue 4 – p 815-819 BACKGROUND: Because intubation-mediated cervical spine and spinal cord injury are likely determined by intubation force magnitude, understanding the determinants of intubation force magnitude is clinically relevant. With direct (Macintosh) laryngoscopy, when glottic view is less […]

Characterizing the Heart Rate Effects From Administration of Sugammadex to Reverse Neuromuscular Blockade

AUTHORS: Ebert, Thomas J. MD, PhD et al  Anesthesia & Analgesia: October 2022 – Volume 135 – Issue 4 – p 807-814 BACKGROUND: Reversal of neuromuscular blockade (NMB) with sugammadex can cause marked bradycardia and asystole. Administration of sugammadex typically occurs in a dynamic period when anesthetic adjuvants and gas concentrations are being titrated to achieve […]

Identification of Foramen Ovale With H-Figure Fluoroscopic Landmark Improves Treatment Outcomes in Idiopathic Trigeminal Neuralgia

AUTHORS: He, Liang-Liang MD et al  Anesthesia & Analgesia: October 2022 – Volume 135 – Issue 4 – p 837-844 BACKGROUND: Because it is traditionally difficult and time-consuming to identify the foramen ovale (FO) with fluoroscopy, we recently developed the H-figure method to acquire fluoroscopic view of FO with shorter procedure time and less radiation. However, […]

Comparison of Antinociceptive Properties Between Sevoflurane and Desflurane Using Pupillary Dilation Reflex Under Equivalent Minimum Alveolar Concentration

AUTHORS: Kim, Soo Yeon MD, PhD et al  Anesthesia & Analgesia: October 2022 – Volume 135 – Issue 4 – p 798-806 BACKGROUND:  The pupillary dilation reflex (PDR), the change in pupil size after a nociceptive stimulus, has been used to assess antinociception during anesthesia. The aim of this study was to compare the antinociceptive properties […]
