Read MoreAUTHORS: Vassilis Athanassoglou et al Reg Anesth Pain Med. 2022 Jan INTRODUCTION The benzodiazepine midazolam is the main sedative used in the perioperative setting, resulting in anxiolysis and a reduction in anesthetic dose requirements. However, benzodiazepine use is also associated with potentially serious side effects including respiratory complications, and postoperative delirium (POD). A paucity of […]

Read MoreAUTHORS: Ruetzler, Kurt MD, FAHA et al Anesthesia & Analgesia: January 2022 BACKGROUND: Sugammadex and neostigmine given to reverse residual neuromuscular blockade can cause side effects including bradycardia, anaphylaxis, bronchospasm, and even cardiac arrest. We tested the hypothesis that sugammadex is noninferior to neostigmine on a composite of clinically meaningful side effects, or vice versa. METHODS: […]
