Filter by:Surgical repair of hip fractures may be performed with various anesthetic techniques, but are most commonly completed under general anesthesia (GA) or neuraxial anesthesia (NA). Numerous prospective and retrospective studies demonstrate improved morbidity and mortality when NA is used; however, many surgeons prefer the use of GA with neuromuscular blockade (NMB) due to the perception of better operative conditions. This study aims to compare the operative conditions obtained from the use of combined GA and spinal with NMB vs. the use of GA with spinal without NMB. 84 patients will all receive a single shot spinal and GA and then will be randomized to receive either NMB or placebo. The fracture reduction time will be measured.
ROSETTA is a multi-centre study evaluating the time course of diaphragm thickness and function following exposure to neuromuscular blockade or control in patients with acute respiratory distress. ROSETTA is an ancillary study to the Re-evaluation of Systemic Early Neuromuscular Blockade (ROSE) trial (NCT02509078). It is designed to (1) test the feasibility of a multi-center evaluation of the diaphragm structure and function by ultrasound during mechanical ventilation and (2) determine whether neuromuscular blockade accelerates atrophy and dysfunction of the diaphragm in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
This study compares surgeon's satisfaction of operating conditions and patient's satisfaction following laparoscopic gynecological surgeries in two groups of patients, half of whom will receive deep neuromuscular blockade and the other half, moderate neuromuscular blockade.
Sugammadex is used as a reversal drug for rocuronium- or vecuronium-induced neuromuscular block during general anaesthesia. IV dexamethasone is injected as a prophylactic measure against postoperative nausea and vomiting. Recent animal data have shown that dexamethasone may impair the reversal effect of sugammadex. The objective of this randomised controlled trial is to confirm in the clinical practice these preliminary results.
The primary objective of this trial is to compare the preference between two strategies of neuromuscular blocking (NMB) / reversal in adult obese patients undergoing laparoscopic abdominal surgery: Rocuronium + Sugammadex versus Succinylcholine + Cisatracurium + Neostigmine/Atropine. This will be done evaluating the average verbal numerical scale (VNS) scores obtained from surgeons blinded to the drugs administered. The primary hypothesis is that the strategy "Rocuronium + Sugammadex" provides a better surgical visual field in obese participants undergoing laparoscopic abdominal surgery than the strategy "Succinylcholine + Cisatracurium + Neostigmine/Atropine" as measured by VNS scores.
