Fade of pulmonary function during residual neuromuscular blockade.
OBJECTIVES A decrement in evoked muscle force with repetitive nerve stimulation (fade) suggests impaired neuromuscular transmission. We tested the hypothesis that fade of pulmonary function, ie, a decrease in values of FVC with the second spirometric maneuver compared to the first maneuver, occurs during impaired neuromuscular transmission. DESIGN Prospective study. PARTICIPANTS Six healthy...
متن کاملResidual neuromuscular blockade: management and impact on postoperative pulmonary outcome.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To revise the current literature on concepts for neuromuscular block management. Moreover, consequences of incomplete neuromuscular recovery on patients' postoperative pulmonary outcome are evaluated as well. RECENT FINDINGS The incidence of residual paralysis may be as high as 70% and even small degrees of residual paralysis may have clinical consequences. Neostigmine shoul...
متن کاملQuantitative Relationships Between Hypoxemia and Disorder of Pulmonary Function **
Hypoxemia is a common finding in many diseases of the lung. The degree of hypoxemia depends upon which aspect of pulmonary function is deranged as well as upon the severity of the abnormality. The degree of hypoxemia, the presence or absence of carbon dioxide retention, and the effects of exercise and oxygen breathing on the hypoxemia provide information about the nature and extent of the under...
متن کاملResidual neuromuscular blockade and upper airway muscles.
We appreciate the opportunity to review and respond to the letter to the editor by Culp, Brewster, and Wernicki, in response to our review article. We thank the authors for their complimentary remarks. We are also pleased that they chose to respond and emphasize the need for prevention and rescue of drowning persons to further improve the survival rate from this disaster. They make the point th...
متن کاملResidual neuromuscular blockade in critical care.
Neuromuscular blockade is a pharmacological adjunct for anesthesia and for surgical interventions. Neuromuscular blockers can facilitate ease of instrumentation and reduce complications associated with intubation. An undesirable sequela of these agents is residual neuromuscular blockade. Residual neuromuscular blockade is linked to aspiration, diminished response to hypoxia, and obstruction of ...
