Abstract
The safe anesthesiological care of patients with neuromuscular diseases poses a particular challenge for anesthetists. Only a small group of muscle diseases and syndromes are associated with an increased risk of malignant hyperthermia and therefore require trigger-free anesthetic procedures avoiding volatile anesthetics and succinylcholine. These diseases are frequently associated with mutations in the RYR1, CACNA1S or STAC-3 genes. In other neuromuscular diseases, anesthetic-induced rhabdomyolysis can occur. Therefore, volatile anesthetics should be avoided in these patients in addition to the contraindication for succinylcholine. In other neuromuscular diseases the risk of a propofol infusion syndrome or myotonic crises can be elevated or the duration of the effect of non-depolarizing muscle relaxants can be changed in an incalculable way. In every case an individual anesthetic aproach including the avoidance of potential pharmacological or non-pharmacological triggers is essential for the safety of the patients.

BMC Anesthesiol 2023; 23:196. [PMID: 37291484 PMCID: PMC10249316 DOI: 10.1186/s12871-023-02148-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2022] [Accepted: 05/20/2023] [Indexed: 06/10/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND In trigger-free anesthesia a volatile anesthetic concentration of 5 parts per million (ppm) should not be exceeded. According to European Malignant Hyperthermia Group (EMHG) guideline, this may be achieved by removing the vapor, changing the anesthetic breathing circuit and renewing the soda lime canister followed by flushing with O2 or air for a workstation specific time. Reduction of the fresh gas flow (FGF) or stand-by modes are known to cause rebound effects. In this study, simulated trigger-free pediatric and adult ventilation was carried out on test lungs including ventilation maneuvers commonly used in clinical practice. The goal of this study was to evaluate whether rebounds of sevoflurane develop during trigger-free anesthesia. METHODS A Dräger® Primus® was contaminated with decreasing concentrations of sevoflurane for 120 min. Then, the machine was prepared for trigger-free anesthesia according to EMHG guideline by changing recommended parts and flushing the breathing circuits using 10 or 18 l⋅min- 1 FGF. The machine was neither switched off after preparation nor was FGF reduced. Simulated trigger-free ventilation was performed with volume-controlled ventilation (VCV) and pressure-controlled ventilation (PCV) including various ventilation maneuvers like pressure support ventilation (PSV), apnea, decreased lung compliance (DLC), recruitment maneuvers, prolonged expiration and manual ventilation (MV). A high-resolution ion mobility spectrometer with gas chromatographic pre-separation was used to measure sevoflurane in the ventilation gas mixture in a 20 s interval. RESULTS Immediately after start of simulated anesthesia, there was an initial peak of 11-18 ppm sevoflurane in all experiments. The concentration dropped below 5 ppm after 2-3 min during adult and 4-18 min during pediatric ventilation. Other rebounds of sevoflurane > 5 ppm occurred after apnea, DLC and PSV. MV resulted in a decrease of sevoflurane < 5 ppm within 1 min. CONCLUSION This study shows that after guideline-compliant preparation for trigger-free ventilation anesthetic machines may develop rebounds of sevoflurane > 5 ppm during typical maneuvers used in clinical practice. The changes in rate and direction of internal gas flow during different ventilation modes and maneuvers are possible explanations. Therefore, manufacturers should provide machine-specific washout protocols or emphasize the use of active charcoal filters (ACF) for trigger-free anesthesia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients at risk of malignant hyperthermia need trigger-free anesthesia. Therefore, anesthesia machines prepared for safe use in predisposed patients should be free of volatile anesthetics. The washout time depends on the composition of rubber and plastic in the anesthesia machine. Therefore, new anesthesia machines should be evaluated regarding the safe preparation for trigger-free anesthesia. This study investigates wash out procedures of volatile anesthetics for two new anesthetic workstations: Dräger Atlan A350 and General Electric Healthcare (GE) Carestation 650 and compare it with preparation using activated charcoal filters (ACF). METHODS A Dräger Atlan and a Carestation 650 were contaminated with 4% sevoflurane for 90 min. The machines were decontaminated with method (M1): using ACF, method 2 (M2): a wash out method that included exchange of internal parts, breathing circuits and soda lime canister followed by ventilating a test lung using a preliminary protocol provided by Dräger or method 3 (M3): a universal wash out instruction of GE, method 4 (M4): M3 plus exchange of breathing system and bellows. Decontamination was followed by a simulated trigger-free ventilation. All experiments were repeated with 8% desflurane contaminated machines. Volatile anesthetics were detected with a closed gas loop high-resolution ion mobility spectrometer with gas chromatographic pre-separation attached to the bacterial filter of the breathing circuits. Primary outcome was time until < 5 ppm of volatile anesthetics and total preparation time. RESULTS Time to < 5 ppm for the Atlan was 17 min (desflurane) and 50 min (sevoflurane), wash out continued for a total of 60 min according to protocol resulting in a total preparation time of 96-122 min. The Carestation needed 66 min (desflurane) and 24 min (sevoflurane) which could be abbreviated to 24 min (desflurane) if breathing system and bellows were changed. Total preparation time was 30-73 min. When using active charcoal filters time to < 5 ppm was 0 min for both machines, and total preparation time < 5 min. CONCLUSION Both wash out protocols resulted in a significant reduction of trace gas concentrations. However, due to the complexity of the protocols and prolonged total preparation time, feasibility in clinical practice remains questionable. Especially when time is limited preparation of the anesthetic machines using ACF remain superior.

Abstract
Malignant hyperthermia is a rare, subclinical pharmacogenetic syndrome leading to potentially life-threatening skeletal muscle hypermetabolism. Providing a safe and trigger-free anesthesia in predisposed individuals is essential to avoid serious harm to the patient. Especially the management of malignant hyperthermia predisposition in the context of pregnancy poses a huge challenge to the attending anesthesiologist. In May 2019 the European Malignant Hyperthermia Group published a guideline on malignant hyperthermia during pregnancy. The article summarizes and discusses the recommendations and provides practical advice for treatment of pregnant women or their fetus with known or suspected susceptibility to malignant hyperthermia.

Abstract
RATIONALE Sevoflurane-induced seizures are most often caused by high concentrations of sevoflurane during anesthesia induction. However, in this case, we found a rare case of seizure-like movements caused by residual sevoflurane inside the anesthesia machine. Therefore, we propose that the detection of residual anesthesia-inhaled drugs should be included in pre-anesthesia checkout procedures. PATIENT CONCERNS An 11-year-old girl with a history of epilepsy was scheduled for emergency appendectomy under general anesthesia. The patient presented with seizure-like movements caused by residual sevoflurane inside the anesthesia machine after pre-oxygenation during rapid sequence induction. DIAGNOSES Based on the clinical presentation and previous history of seizures, sevoflurane-induced seizures were diagnosed. INTERVENTIONS A washout procedure was performed by turning the oxygen flow up to 10L/min to wash out the residual sevoflurane from the anesthesia machine. OUTCOMES The seizures ceased spontaneously, and the vital signs of the patient were stable during the washout procedure. Rapid sequence anesthesia induction and total intravenous anesthesia maintenance were uneventful. Surgery was performed as planned, and there were no postoperative problems. The patient was discharged after 4 days without complications and was well on follow-up. LESSONS The check-up procedure of residual anesthesia-inhaled drugs inside the anesthesia machine should be included in the checkout design guidelines, or else the washout procedure should be performed in the pre-anesthesia checkout procedures.

Abstract
Malignant hyperthermia is defined in the International Classification of Diseases as a progressive life-threatening hyperthermic reaction occurring during general anaesthesia. Malignant hyperthermia has an underlying genetic basis, and genetically susceptible individuals are at risk of developing malignant hyperthermia if they are exposed to any of the potent inhalational anaesthetics or suxamethonium. It can also be described as a malignant hypermetabolic syndrome. There are no specific clinical features of malignant hyperthermia and the condition may prove fatal unless it is recognised in its early stages and treatment is promptly and aggressively implemented. The Association of Anaesthetists has previously produced crisis management guidelines intended to be displayed in all anaesthetic rooms as an aide memoire should a malignant hyperthermia reaction occur. The last iteration was produced in 2011 and since then there have been some developments requiring an update. In these guidelines we will provide background information that has been used in updating the crisis management recommendations but will also provide more detailed guidance on the clinical diagnosis of malignant hyperthermia. The scope of these guidelines is extended to include practical guidance for anaesthetists dealing with a case of suspected malignant hyperthermia once the acute reaction has been reversed. This includes information on care and monitoring during and after the event; appropriate equipment and resuscitative measures within the operating theatre and ICU; the importance of communication and teamwork; guidance on counselling of the patient and their family; and how to make a referral of the patient for confirmation of the diagnosis. We also review which patients presenting for surgery may be at increased risk of developing malignant hyperthermia under anaesthesia and what precautions should be taken during the peri-operative management of the patients.

Abstract
Malignant hyperthermia is a potentially fatal condition, in which genetically predisposed individuals develop a hypermetabolic reaction to potent inhalation anaesthetics or succinylcholine. Because of the rarity of malignant hyperthermia and ethical limitations, there is no evidence from interventional trials to inform the optimal perioperative management of patients known or suspected with malignant hyperthermia who present for surgery. Furthermore, as the concentrations of residual volatile anaesthetics that might trigger a malignant hyperthermia crisis are unknown and manufacturers' instructions differ considerably, there are uncertainties about how individual anaesthetic machines or workstations need to be prepared to avoid inadvertent exposure of susceptible patients to trigger anaesthetic drugs. The present guidelines are intended to bundle the available knowledge about perioperative management of malignant hyperthermia-susceptible patients and the preparation of anaesthesia workstations. The latter aspect includes guidance on the use of activated charcoal filters. The guidelines were developed by members of the European Malignant Hyperthermia Group, and they are based on evaluation of the available literature and a formal consensus process. The most crucial recommendation is that malignant hyperthermia-susceptible patients should receive anaesthesia that is free of triggering agents. Providing that this can be achieved, other key recommendations include avoidance of prophylactic administration of dantrolene; that preoperative management, intraoperative monitoring, and care in the PACU are unaltered by malignant hyperthermia susceptibility; and that malignant hyperthermia patients may be anaesthetised in an outpatient setting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Volatile anesthetics potentially trigger malignant hyperthermia crises in susceptible patients. We therefore aimed to identify preparation procedures for the Draeger Primus that minimize residual concentrations of desflurane and sevoflurane with and without activated charcoal filtration. METHODS A Draeger Primus test workstation was primed with 7% desflurane or 2.5% sevoflurane for 2 hours. Residual anesthetic concentrations were evaluated with five preparation procedures, three fresh gas flow rates, and three distinct applications of activated charcoal filters. Finally, non-exchangeable and autoclaved parts of the workstation were tested for residual emission of volatile anesthetics. Concentrations were measured by multicapillary column-ion mobility spectrometry with limits of detection/quantification being <1 part per billion (ppb) for desflurane and <2.5 ppb for sevoflurane. RESULTS The best preparation procedure included a flushing period of 10 minutes between removal and replacement of all parts of the ventilator circuit which immediately produced residual concentrations <5 ppm. A fresh gas flow of 10 L/minute reduced residual concentration as effectively as 18 L/minute, whereas flows of 1 or 5 L/minute slowed washout. Use of activated charcoal filters immediately reduced and maintained residual concentrations <5 ppm for up to 24 hours irrespective of previous workstation preparation. The fresh gas hose, circle system, and ventilator diaphragm emitted traces of volatile anesthetics. CONCLUSION In elective cases, presumably safe concentrations can be obtained by a 10-minute flush at ≥10 L/minute between removal and replacement all components of the airway circuit. For emergencies, we recommend using an activated charcoal filter.
