Abstract
The binding affinity of pillar[6]MaxQ toward a panel of neuromuscular blockers and neurotransmitters was measured in phosphate buffered saline by isothermal titration calorimetry and 1H NMR spectroscopy. In vivo efficacy studies showed that P6MQ sequesters rocuronium and vecuronium and reverses their influence on the recovery of the train-of-four (TOF) ratio.

Abstract
The patellar tendon (PT) is crucial for maintaining stability and facilitating movement in the stifle joint. Elastography has been recognized as a prominent method for evaluating PT properties in humans and dogs. The utilization of oscillation methods in canine studies remains limited despite their extensive documentation in human studies. Our study represents the first effort to quantitatively assess and compare the effects of muscle relaxant on the biomechanical and viscoelastic characteristics of the PT at varying stifle angles in living dogs. Five healthy female beagles were used in this study. Biomechanical (tone, stiffness, and decrement) and viscoelastic (relaxation time and creep) properties of the PT were measured using MyotonPRO (Myoton Ltd, Estonia) prior to and following administration of rocuronium (0.5 mg/kg/body weight) at normal, extended, and flexed positions. Rocuronium was selected for its safety, controllability, and widespread clinical use in veterinary anesthesia. Two-way analysis of variance showed that tone, stiffness, and decrement were significantly higher (P < 0.001) in the control group than in the muscle relaxation group. At the same time, relaxation time and creep were significantly lower (P < 0.001) in the control group than in the muscle relaxation group. The findings indicate that stifle angle position and muscle rexalant administration fundamentally alter the biomechanical loading conditions of the PT, leading to changes in its viscoelastic properties. Therefore, this novel quantitative data could benefit clinical settings that necessitate accurate and objective methods for risk identification and monitoring PT biomechanics in dogs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the reversal effect of sugammadex on neuromuscular blockade induced by a single bolus of rocuronium in dogs under alfaxalone anesthesia. STUDY DESIGN Randomized, prospective, crossover experimental study. ANIMALS A group of six adult Beagle dogs (three females and three males), weighing 11.3-15.8 kg and aged 6-8 years, were used. METHODS Dogs were anesthetized twice with a 1.25 times minimum infusion rate of alfaxalone, with a washout period of at least 14 days between experiments. Neuromuscular function was monitored using acceleromyography with train-of-four (TOF) stimulation of the peroneal nerve. After recording the control TOF ratio (TOFRC), rocuronium (0.5 mg kg-1) was administered intravenously. Subsequently, sugammadex (4 mg kg-1) or an equal volume of saline (control treatment) was administered intravenously when the TOF count returned from 0 to 1 after neuromuscular blockade. Time from rocuronium injection to TOF count = 0 (onset time), time from TOF count = 0 to TOF count = 1 (maximum blockade period), time of first twitch amplitude recovery from 0.25 to 0.75 (recovery index), and time from sugammadex or saline administration to TOF ratio/TOFRC ≥ 0.9 (recovery time) were recorded. RESULTS The onset time and maximum blockade duration did not differ between sugammadex treatment [1.2 (0.7-1.5) minutes and 9.9 (6.3-10.5) minutes, respectively] and control treatment [median (range); 1.0 (0.7-1.1) minutes and 9.9 (8.8-11.5) minutes, respectively] (p = 0.219 and 0.844, respectively). Recovery index was 0.5 (0.3-0.7) minutes in sugammadex treatment, which was shorter than that in control treatment [4.5 (3.7-4.9) minutes] (p = 0.031). Recovery time was 0.8 (0.5-2.8) minutes in sugammadex treatment, which was shorter than that in control treatment [10.5 (6.8-14.3) minutes] (p = 0.031). CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE Rocuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade was effectively reversed by sugammadex in dogs anesthetized with alfaxalone.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the variability in the duration of action of a single dose of rocuronium or cisatracurium, and duration of subsequent top-up doses in anesthetized dogs. ANIMALS Thirty dogs requiring ophthalmic surgery with neuromuscular block. PROCEDURES Neuromuscular function was monitored with train-of-four (TOF) and acceleromyography. Dogs received an initial dose of rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg, or cisatracurium 0.15 mg/kg IV, which produced complete neuromuscular block. Upon return of the first response (T1) of TOF, a third of the initial dose was repeated. The duration of the initial dose and its variability were compared between agents. Duration of subsequent top-up doses was assessed with mixed effect models. Spontaneous (from last return of T1) or neostigmine-enhanced (from administration to complete recovery) recovery times were measured for each agent. RESULTS Duration of action of the initial dose was [median (range)] 25 (10-60) min with rocuronium and 35 (15-45) min with cisatracurium (p = .231). The variability of rocuronium was 3.25 times larger than cisatracurium (p = .034). Duration of top-up doses did not vary for either agent. Spontaneous recovery was shorter for rocuronium [15 (10-20) min] than cisatracurium [25 (15-45) min] (p = .02). Neostigmine-enhanced recovery times were 5 (5-25) for rocuronium and 10 (5-10) for cisatracurium (p = .491). CONCLUSIONS Duration of action for a single dose is significantly more variable with rocuronium than cisatracurium. Time to spontaneous recovery was longer for cisatracurium, and cases of unexpectedly long recovery times were observed with both agents. Objective monitoring is recommended.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rocuronium bromide has been evaluated as a mydriatic agent in birds, but the species applied were limited and the dose and effect were variable. OBJECTIVE This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of topical rocuronium bromide as mydriatics in 4 species according to horizontal palpebral fissure length: Feral pigeon (Columba livia), Common kestrel (Falco tinnunculus), Northern boobook (Ninox japonica), and Eurasian eagle owl (Bubo bubo). METHODS A total of 32 birds (8 for each species) were included as pre-releasing examination. Rocuronium bromide was instilled in one randomly selected eye of each bird based on palpebral fissure length criteria (0.5 mg/50 µL for pigeons, 1 mg/100 µL for kestrels and boobook owls, and 2 mg/200 µL for eagle owls). The contralateral eye was used as control and treated with normal saline. After instillation of the drug, pupil diameter, pupillary light reflex, intraocular pressure, heart rate, and respiratory rate were evaluated at 10 min intervals up to 180 min and at 30 min intervals up to 360 min. RESULTS Statistically significant mydriasis was obtained in all birds (p < 0.001). However, in boobook and eagle owls, marked mydriasis persisted until 360 min. Side effects including corneal erosion and lower eyelid paralysis were common, which was observed in 26/32 birds. Blepharospasm was also noted during this study. No systemic adverse signs were observed. CONCLUSIONS Rocuronium bromide could be a good mydriatics option for 4 species of birds, however, further studies are needed to find lowest effective dose to reduce drug-related side effects.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Prehospital rapid sequence induction (RSI) of anaesthesia is an intervention with significant associated risk. In this study, we aimed to investigate the haemodynamic response over time of a prehospital RSI protocol of fentanyl, ketamine and rocuronium in a heterogeneous population of trauma patients. DESIGN, SETTING AND PARTICIPANT We performed a retrospective study of all trauma patients who received a prehospital RSI for trauma by a physician staffed Helicopter Emergency Medical Service in the UK between 1 June 2018 and 1 February 2020. PRIMARY OUTCOME MEASURE Primary outcome was defined as the incidence of clinically relevant hypotensive (systolic blood pressure (SBP) or mean arterial pressure (MAP) >20% below baseline, with an absolute SBP <90 mm Hg or MAP <65 mm Hg) or hypertensive (SBP or MAP >20% above baseline) episodes in the first 10 minutes post-RSI. RESULTS In total, 322 patients were included. 204 patients (63%) received a full-dose induction of 3 μg/kg fentanyl, 2 mg/kg ketamine and 1 mg/kg rocuronium, whereas 128 patients (37%) received a reduced-dose induction. Blood pressures decreased on average 12 mm Hg (95% CI 7 to 16) in the full-dose group and 6 mm Hg (95% CI 1 to 11) in the reduced-dose group, p=0.10). A hypotensive episode (mean SBP drop 53 mm Hg) was noted in 29 patients: 17 (8.3%) receiving a full dose and 12 (10.2%) receiving a reduced-dose induction, p=0.69. The blood pressure nadir was recorded on average 6-8 min after RSI. A hypertensive episode was present in 22 patients (6.8%). The highest blood pressures were recorded in the first 3 min after RSI. CONCLUSION Prehospital induction of anaesthesia for trauma with fentanyl, ketamine and rocuronium is not related to a significant change in haemodynamics in most patients. However, a (delayed) hypotensive response with a significant drop in SBP should be anticipated in a minority of patients irrespective of the dose regimen chosen.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neuromuscular blocking agents induce muscle paralysis via the prevention of synaptic transmission at the neuromuscular junction and may have additional effects at other sites of action. With regard to potential effects of neuromuscular blocking agents on the central nervous system, a definitive view has not been established. We investigated whether intravenous infusion of rocuronium bromide affects the emergence from propofol anesthesia. METHODS Using an in vivo rat model, we performed propofol infusion for 60 minutes, along with rocuronium bromide at various infusion rates or normal saline. Sugammadex or normal saline was injected at the end of the infusion period, and we evaluated the time to emergence from propofol anesthesia. We also examined the neuromuscular blocking, circulatory, and respiratory properties of propofol infusion along with rocuronium bromide infusion to ascertain possible factors affecting emergence. RESULTS Intravenous infusion of rocuronium bromide dose-dependently increased the time to emergence from propofol anesthesia. Sugammadex administered after propofol infusion not containing rocuronium bromide did not affect the time to emergence. Mean arterial pressure, heart rate, partial pressures of oxygen and carbon dioxide, and pH were not affected by rocuronium bromide infusion. Neuromuscular blockade induced by rocuronium bromide, even at the greatest infusion rate in the emergence experiment, was rapidly antagonized by sugammadex. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that intravenous infusion of rocuronium bromide dose-dependently delays the emergence from propofol anesthesia in rats. Future studies, such as detection of rocuronium in the cerebrospinal fluid or central nervous system, electrophysiologic studies, microinjection of sugammadex into the brain, etc., are necessary to determine the mechanism of this effect.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There have been conflicting results regarding clinical dexamethasone-sugammadex interactions in adults and pediatric patients under general anesthesia. METHODS This study used a systematic review with meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials and non-randomized studies based on the Cochrane Review Methods. A comprehensive literature search was conducted to identify clinical trials that investigated the effect of dexamethasone on sugammadex reversal of rocuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade in surgical patients undergoing general anesthesia. RESULTS Among the 314 patients in the 6 studies, 147 received intravenous dexamethasone (dexamethasone group), and 167 received intravenous saline or other antiemetics (control group). The primary outcome, the time to recovery after sugammadex administration (the time to recovery of the train-of-four ratio to 0.9 after sugammadex administration; s) was comparable between the 2 groups, the weighted mean difference (95% confidence interval [CI]) being -2.93 (-36.19, 30.33) (I2 = 94%). The time to extubation after sugammadex administration (s) and incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting was not different between the 2 groups, the weighted mean difference (95% CI) being 23.31 (-2.26, 48.88) (I2 = 86%) and the pooled risk ratio (95% CI) being 0.25 (0.03, 2.11), respectively. The time to recovery after sugammadex administration might be different according to the study design or study region. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis showed that use of dexamethasone in the perioperative period neither delayed nor facilitated the reversal of rocuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade with sugammadex in patients undergoing elective surgery with general anesthesia. However, given that the results showed high heterogeneity, further randomized controlled trials are needed to confirm these findings.

Abstract
Perioperative hypersensitivity (POH) to the neuromuscular blocking drug (NMBD) rocuronium was previously thought to be IgE and mast cell (MC)-mediated. However, the recent seminal observation that rocuronium induces degranulation in murine peritoneal MCs (PMCs) via Mas-related G protein-coupled receptor B2 (MrgprB2) led to the idea that POH to this drug involves the activation of MRGPRX2 (human ortholog of MrgprB2). Furthermore, based on the demonstration that a patient with POH to rocuronium displayed three missense mutations (M196I, L226P and L237P) in MRGPRX2's transmembrane domains, it was proposed that this hypersensitivity reaction resulted from aberrant activation of this receptor. We found that rocuronium at 20 µg/mL caused degranulation in mouse PMCs via MrgprB2 but required at least 500 µg/mL to induce degranulation in human MCs via MRGPRX2. Furthermore, RBL-2H3 cells transiently expressing M196I, L226P and L237P variants did not display enhanced degranulation in response to rocuronium when compared to the wild-type receptor. These findings provide the first demonstration that rocuronium induces degranulation in human MCs via MRGPRX2. Furthermore, the important differences between MrgprB2 and MRGPRX2 and the inability of rocuronium to induce enhanced response in cells expressing MRGPRX2 variants suggest that the mechanism of its POH is more complex than previously thought.

Abstract
Rocuronium is an aminosteroid nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocker that is widely used for anesthesia and intensive care. In this study, we investigated the effect of rocuronium on human platelet functions in vitro. The effects of rocuronium on platelet aggregation, P-selectin expression, and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels in platelets were measured using an aggregometer, an enzyme immunoassay, and flow cytometry, respectively. Rocuronium inhibited ADP-induced platelet aggregation, P-selectin expression and suppression of cAMP production. These effects were not antagonized by equimolar sugammadex, a synthetic γ-cyclodextrin derivative that antagonizes rocuronium-induced muscle relaxation by encapsulating the rocuronium molecule. Morpholine, which constitutes a part of the rocuronium molecule but is not encapsulated by sugammadex, inhibited ADP-induced platelet aggregation. Vecuronium, which has a molecular structure similar to that of rocuronium but does not possess a morpholine ring, had no significant effect on ADP-induced platelet aggregation. These results indicate that rocuronium has a suppressive effect on platelet functions in vitro that is not reversed by sugammadex and suggest that this effect is mediated by blockade of the P2Y12 receptor signaling pathway via the morpholine ring of rocuronium.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Administration of propofol, especially rapid administration, decreases patient cardiac output (CO) to various degrees. CO might influence the buildup of an effective drug level within the neuromuscular junction and affect the onset time of neuromuscular blockers. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of different infusion rates of propofol on patient CO and the onset time of rocuronium. METHODS A total of 90 patients were randomly assigned to receive propofol (2.5 mg/kg) at an infusion rate of 480 mg/min (group A), 240 mg/min (group B), or 120 mg/min (group C). After the administration of propofol, rocuronium (0.6 mg/kg) was administered to facilitate tracheal intubation. The Finometer monitor was used to obtain the cardiovascular profile during the induction of general anesthesia. Neuromuscular relaxation was monitored by acceleromyography using the ulnar nerve at the wrist surface and electrodes with repeated single twitches. Onset time was defined as the time from the beginning of rocuronium injection until 95% twitch depression. The onset time of rocuronium in the three groups was compared using analysis of variance with the post-hoc Tukey test. A p-value <0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS After induction, a significant decrease in CO was observed in group A (21.6% ± 4.6%) when compared with the findings in group B (11.6% ± 4.5%) and group C (9.8% ± 4.6%). The onset time of rocuronium was significantly longer in group A (177.7 ± 17.6 seconds) than in group B (121.3 ± 18.3 seconds) and group C (118.3 ± 12.3 seconds). CONCLUSION Rapid administration of propofol significantly delays the onset time of rocuronium by altering CO as measured with the Finometer monitor.

Abstract
Epilepsy surgery is a well-established treatment for patients with drug-resistant epilepsy. The success of surgery depends on precise presurgical localisation of the epileptogenic zone. There are different techniques to determine its location and extension. Despite the improvements in non-invasive diagnostic tests, in patients for whom these tests are inconclusive, invasive techniques such intraoperative electrocorticography will be needed. Intraoperative electrocorticography is used to guide surgical resection of the epileptogenic lesion and to verify that the resection has been completed. However, it can be affected by some of the anaesthetic drugs used by the anaesthesiologist. Our objective with this case is to review which drugs can be used in epilepsy surgery with intraoperative electrocorticography.
