The Promising Role of Pediatric Pharmacokinetic Simulations in Informing Opioid Dosing Decisions

Authors: Gheshlaghi N et al. Anesthesia & Analgesia 142(2):280-283, February 2026. This article discusses how pharmacokinetic model-based simulations may help guide opioid dosing decisions in pediatric patients, particularly when genetic differences influence drug metabolism and transport. Despite advances in pediatric analgesia, pain control remains inadequate for many children, with approximately one in four hospitalized pediatric […]

Comparison of Phonomyography Prototype With Train-of-Four Watch SX for Neuromuscular Monitoring

Authors: Dong Y et al. Anesthesia & Analgesia 142(2):264-273, February 2026. This prospective observational study evaluated a new phonomyography (PMG) prototype device for quantitative neuromuscular monitoring and compared it with the widely used acceleromyography device, the Train-of-Four Watch SX (TOF-Watch SX). Quantitative neuromuscular monitoring is increasingly recommended to reduce the risk of residual neuromuscular blockade […]
