Abstract
Current management of anesthesia-associated complications falls short in terms of both efficacy and safety. Nanomaterials with versatile properties and unique nano-bio interactions hold substantial promise as therapeutics for addressing these complications. This review conducts a thorough examination of the existing nanotherapeutics and highlights the strategies for developing prospective nanomedicines to mitigate anesthetics-related toxicity. Initially, general, regional, and local anesthesia along with the commonly used anesthetics and related prevalent side effects are introduced. Furthermore, employing nanotechnology to prevent and alleviate the complications of anesthetics is systematically demonstrated from three aspects, that is, developing 1) safe nano-formulization for anesthetics; 2) nano-antidotes to sequester overdosed anesthetics and alter their pharmacokinetics; 3) nanomedicines with pharmacodynamic activities to treat anesthetics toxicity. Finally, the prospects and challenges facing the clinical translation of nanotherapeutics for anesthesia-related complications are discussed. This work provides a comprehensive roadmap for developing effective nanotherapeutics to prevent and mitigate anesthesia-associated toxicity, which can potentially revolutionize the management of anesthesia complications.

Abstract
The description of the main scientifically consolidated innovations in recent years on Rapid Sequence Induction have been the subject of this narrative review. Data sources were PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and ClinicaTrials.gov, searched up to March 21st, 2023; rapid sequence induction and anesthesia were used as key word for the research. In recent years at least three significant innovations which have improved the procedure: firstly the possibility of using drugs which rapidly reverse the action of the myorelaxants and which have made it possible to give up the use of succinylcholine, replaced by rocuronium; secondly, the possibility of using much more effective pre-oxygenation methods than in the past, also through apneic oxygenation techniques which allow longer apnea time, and finally new monitoring systems much more effective than pulse oximetry in identifying and predicting periprocedural hypoxemia and indicating the need for ventilation in patients at risk of hypoxemia and preventing it. The description of three main scientifically consolidated innovations in recent years, in pharmacology, oxygen method of administration and monitoring, have been the subject of this narrative review.

Rate of residual neuromuscular block using single-dose rocuronium in general anesthesia for ENT surgery: a retrospective cohort study. BMC Anesthesiol 2023; 23:107. [PMID: 37005560 PMCID: PMC10067182 DOI: 10.1186/s12871-023-02027-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2022] [Accepted: 02/24/2023] [Indexed: 04/04/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION NMB facilitates intubating conditions in general anesthesia. However, it is associated with significant residual postoperative paralysis and morbidity. OBJECTIVE To investigate the rate of underdiagnosed residual NMB based on two TOFR criteria (< 0.91 and < 1.00). METHODS We performed a retrospective study adhering to STROBE guidelines. We included patients undergoing ENT surgery using single-dose neuromuscular block for balanced general anesthesia from June to December 2018. We collected demographic and anthropometric data, ASA score, NMBA dose, TOFR recordings at 5, 30 and 60 min and end of the surgery, anesthesia and surgery time, and administration of reversal agent. Statistical analysis included descriptive and dispersion measures statistics, curve and cross tables for residual NMB on different TOFR criteria with sub-analysis for AR, RR, and OR in patients over 65 years old. RESULTS We included 57 patients, mean age 41; 43 females and 14 males. Mean anesthetic and surgical time were 139.4 and 116.1 min, respectively. All the patients received rocuronium under a mean ponderal single-dose of 0.48 mg/kg. Residual NMB rates were 29.9 and 49.1% for a TOFR < 0.91 and < 1.00, respectively. Older adults had an OR of 6.08 for residual NMB. CONCLUSIONS The rate of residual NMB was 29.9 to 49.1%, depending on the criteria used (TOFR < 0.91 and < 1.00, respectively). Patients above 65 years old had an increased risk of residual NMB (6.08 OR) and clinical symptoms related to residual NMB (11.75 OR). We recommend future research aiming to provide a specific surveillance protocol for patients above 65 years old, including shorter-action NMB, early reversal, and prolonged surveillance using the TOFR criteria of < 1.00 to identify patients at risk of residual NMB readily.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy of intraoperative bupivacaine hydrochloride wound infiltration as an adjunct means of pain relief following noninstrumented posterior spine surgery. METHODS A retrospective cohort analysis was performed of all patients who underwent posterior spinal decompression surgery at the University of California, San Diego, and at the San Diego VA Medical Center between June 2020 and July 2021, following a change in practice to including bupivacaine infiltration at the end of the surgery. Patients were stratified into groups based on whether they received intrawound bupivacaine during surgery. Demographic and clinical data were extracted from the electronic health record. Postoperative opioid use, visual analog pain scores, heart rate, and blood pressure were compared. RESULTS The analysis included 43 patients; 21 received bupivacaine infiltration, and 22 did not. No complications were encountered in the perioperative period. Patients who received bupivacaine consumed significantly less opioids over the 72 hours following surgery, had slightly lower pain scores, and experienced slightly lower heart rates. No significant difference was found between groups with respect to systolic blood pressure, operative time, or length of hospital stay. CONCLUSIONS Intraoperative infiltration of the exposed paraspinous musculature and peri-incisional subdermal layer with bupivacaine significantly reduced postoperative opioid consumption for 72 hours after surgery and slightly reduced pain ratings and conferred superior heart rate control. This low-cost intervention produced significant patient benefit with minimal risk and no significant increase in surgical time or hospital stay.

Abstract
Neuromuscular junction (NMJ) disorders result from damage, malfunction or absence of one or more key proteins involved in neuromuscular transmission, comprising a wide range of disorders. The most common pathology is antibody-mediated or downregulation of ion channels or receptors, resulting in Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome, myasthenia gravis, and acquired neuromyotonia (Isaac's syndrome), and rarely congenital myasthenic syndromes caused by mutations in NMJ proteins. A wide range of symptomatic treatments, immunomodulating therapies, or immunosuppressive drugs have been used to treat NMJ diseases. Future research must be directed at better understanding of the pathogenesis of these diseases, and developing novel disease-specific treatments. Numerous secondary metabolites, especially alkaloids isolated from plants have been used to treat NMJ diseases in traditional and clinical practices. An ethnopharmacological approach has provided leads for identifying new treatment for NMJ diseases. In this review, we performed a literature survey in Pubmed, Science Direct, and Google Scholar to gather information on drug discovery from plant sources for NMJ disease treatments. To date, most research has focused on the effect of herbal remedies on cholinesterase inhibitory and antioxidant activities. This review provides leads for identifying potential new drugs from plant sources for the treatment of NMJ diseases.

Influence of sugammadex versus neostigmine for neuromuscular block reversal on the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Perioper Med (Lond) 2021; 10:32. [PMID: 34538277 PMCID: PMC8451127 DOI: 10.1186/s13741-021-00203-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2021] [Accepted: 06/12/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The influence of sugammadex for reversal of neuromuscular block (NMB) on postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs), compared with neostigmine, remains to be determined. We performed a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to compare the incidence of PPCs between patients who received sugammadex versus neostigmine. METHODS Relevant studies were obtained by searching the PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases. A random effects model incorporating the potential heterogeneity was used to pool the results. RESULTS Fourteen RCTs including 1478 adult patients who underwent surgeries with general anesthesia were included, and of these, 753 received sugammadex and 725 received neostigmine for reversal of NMB. The pooled results showed that sugammadex was associated with a lower risk of overall PPCs compared to neostigmine (odds ratio [OR]: 0.62, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.43-0.89, p = 0.01; I2 = 0%). This finding remained consistent after exclusion of two studies with potential overlapping events (OR: 0.58, 95% CI: 0.36-0.96, p = 0.03; I2=9%). Stratified analyses according to the categories of PPCs showed that sugammadex was associated with a significantly lower risk of postoperative respiratory failure (OR: 0.60, 95% CI: 0.38-0.97, p = 0.04; I2 = 0%) but not of postoperative pulmonary infection (OR: 0.79, p = 0.71), atelectasis (OR: 0.78, p = 0.33), or pneumothorax (OR: 0.87, p = 0.79). CONCLUSIONS Compared with neostigmine, the use of sugammadex for reversal of NMB was associated with a lower risk of PPCs, mainly due to a lower incidence of postoperative respiratory failure with the use of sugammadex.

Effect of reversal of residual neuromuscular blockade on the amplitude of motor evoked potentials: a randomized controlled crossover study comparing sugammadex and placebo. Neurol Sci 2021; 43:615-623. [PMID: 34041634 DOI: 10.1007/s10072-021-05318-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2021] [Accepted: 05/08/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the amplitude changes in motor evoked potentials (MEP) with reversal of residual neuromuscular blockade using sugammadex or placebo in patients with cervical myelopathy. METHODS In this prospective randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover trial, 38 patients with cervical myelopathy undergoing posterior cervical decompression and fusion were randomized to either sugammadex (2mg/kg) or placebo. The primary outcome measure was the increase in amplitude of the MEP in the first dorsal interossei (FDI) muscle at 3 min. Mann-Whitney U test was used to analyze the primary outcome measure. RESULTS There was a significant increase in the amplitude of MEP at 3 min with sugammadex when compared to placebo group. The median (IQR) increase in MEP amplitude (μV) at 3 min from the left FDI in sugammadex and placebo group was 652.9 (142:1650) and 20.6 (-183.5:297.5) (p <0.001), respectively. Corresponding values from right FDI were 2153.4 (1400:4536.8) and 55(-65.2:480.8) (p=<0.001). CONCLUSION Our study showed that there was a 200% increase in the MEP amplitude in the first dorsal interosseous muscle at 3 min following reversal of residual neuromuscular blockade with sugammadex. By ensuring that maximal MEP amplitude is recorded at baseline, early commencement of neuromonitoring can be achieved.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN The study is designed as a retrospective cohort study. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to identify modifiable and nonmodifiable risk factors of postoperative urinary retention in spine surgery patients. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Postoperative urinary retention is a common complication in patients undergoing operative procedures requiring anesthesia. Current studies have shown significant risk factors for postoperative urinary retention, but most are nonmodifiable and subsequently of limited usefulness in preventing this complication. Several new studies have shown possible modifiable risk factors, but current data are inconsistent in terms of their statistical significance. METHODS A total of 814 consecutive patients who underwent open posterior lumbar laminectomy and fusion were included in the retrospective cohort study. Pre, intra-, and postoperative characteristics were collected in all patients to identify risk factors for postoperative urinary retention. RESULTS Glycopyrrolate use (odds ratio [OR] 2.60; P = 0.001), decreased body mass index (OR 0.96; P = 0.018), previous diagnosis of benign prostate hyperplasia (OR 3.34; P ≤ 0.001), and postoperative urinary tract infection (OR 5.60, P = 0.005) were associated with postoperative urinary retention. Previous history of lumbar spine surgery (OR 0.55; P = 0.019) was associated with decreased rates of postoperative urinary retention. CONCLUSION Glycopyrrolate use, benign prostate hyperplasia, and postoperative urinary tract infection were independent risk factors for postoperative urinary retention. The use of glycopyrrolate is a potentially modifiable risk factor for postoperative urinary retention.Level of Evidence: 3.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to determine factors associated with prolonged intubation after inguinal herniorrhaphy in neonates. METHODS Retrospective, single institution review of neonates undergoing inguinal herniorrhaphy between 2010 and 2018. Variables recorded included demographics, comorbidities, ventilation status at time of hernia repair, and anesthetic technique. RESULTS We identified 97 neonates (median corrected gestational age 39.9 weeks, IQR 6.6). The majority (87.6%) received general anesthesia (GA); the remainder received caudal anesthesia (CA). Among the GA subjects, 25.8% remained intubated for at least 6 h after surgery, whereas none of the CA patients required intubation postoperatively (p = 0.03). Two risk factors associated with prolonged postoperative intubation: a history of intubation before surgery (p = 0.04) and a diagnosis of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (p = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS Neonates undergoing inguinal herniorrhaphy under GA have a greater rate of prolonged postoperative intubation compared with those undergoing CA. A history of previous intubation and bronchopulmonary dysplasia were significant risk factors for prolonged postoperative intubation.

Abstract
Background: Sugammadex is a selective reversal agent which has the ability to reverse deep neuromuscular blockade. However, there are still controversial results as regard sugammadex effects on the quality of recovery. We hypothesized that Sugammadex may have better recovery profile compared to neostigmine in pediatric patients with congenital heart diseases undergoing cardiac catheterization. Patients and Methods: This prospective randomized double-blind study included 50 pediatric patients aged <2 years who were divided into two groups according to the reversal agent used; Group S (Sugammadex) and Group N (Neostigmine). Both groups received the same anesthetic technique during cardiac catheterization, and basic hemodynamic monitoring was ensured in both groups. After the procedure, reversal was done using 4 mg.kg‒1 sugammadex or 0.04 mg. kg‒1 neostigmine plus 0.02 mg. kg‒1 atropine according to the group allocation. Recovery time and side effects were recorded. Results: The two groups showed comparable findings regarding demographics. Nonetheless, the total time of anesthesia had mean values of 91.06 and 101.25 min in the two groups, respectively (P = 0.003), while recovery time had mean values of 1.61 and 9.23 min in the same groups, respectively (P < 0.001). Hemodynamic profile (heart rate and mean arterial pressure) was better after reversal with sugammadex. Blood sugar levels and side effects showed no significant difference between both groups. Conclusion: Sugammadex can be a more rapid and effective alternative to neostigmine for reversal of rocuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade in pediatric patients undergoing cardiac catheterization.

Abstract
Clinicians are witnessing differences in the doses required for induction and maintenance of anesthesia, as well as prolonged recovery in some patients. Predictable factors like patient characteristics, factors related to the procedure, pharmacological characteristics of anesthetics and adjunctive drugs, might explain some of the observed differences. However, the role of various polymorphisms of genes encoding for drugs’ molecular targets, transporters and metabolic enzymes can have a significant impact on anesthesia outcome, too. In the present paper, we critically discuss pharmacological characteristics of the most common drugs used in anesthesia, with a focus on the possible genetic background of unpredictable diversities in anesthesia outcomes.
