Aim To compare the outcome of sole dexmedetomidine or with other sedative drugs in paediatric patients during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Methods Literature was obtained from PubMed and ScienceDirect from 2010-2020 using key words: sedation, paediatric, dexmedetomidine, ambulatory, MRI, ketamine, propofol, midazolam. The literature selection ...

The posterior dominant rhythm (PDR) was the first oscillatory pattern noted in the EEG. Evoked by wakeful eyelid closure, these oscillations dissipate over seconds during loss of arousal. The peak frequency of the PDR maintains stability over years, suggesting utility as a state biomarker in the surveillance of acute cognitive impairments. This EEG...

Veterinary anaesthesia and analgesia
To investigate pharmacokinetics (PK) of fentanyl administered by target-controlled infusion (TCI), and to develop a PK model optimized by covariates for TCI in anaesthetized dogs. Prospective clinical study. A group of 20 client-owned dogs with spinal pain undergoing anaesthesia for magnetic resonance imaging. Fentanyl was administered as an infusi...

We sought to evaluate the effect of adult procedural sedation on cerebral oxygenation measured by near-infrared spectroscopy (rSo2 levels), and to assess whether respiratory depression occurring during procedural sedation was associated with decreases in cerebral oxygenation. We performed a prospective, observational preliminary study on a convenie...

Forearm fractures in children often require closed reduction in the emergency setting. The choice of anaesthesia influences the degree of pain relief, which determines the success of reduction. Main methods of anaesthesia include procedural sedation and analgesia, haematoma block, intravenous regional anaesthesia (IVRA) and regional nerve blocks. H...

Patients with neuromuscular conditions are at increased risk of suffering perioperative complications related to anaesthesia. There is currently little specific anaesthetic guidance concerning these patients. Here, we present the European Neuromuscular Centre (ENMC) consensus statement on anaesthesia in patients with neuromuscular disorders as form...

Many nurses will still be familiar with the instruction 'nil by mouth from midnight' traditionally given to patients preparing to undergo surgery. National and international guidelines now promote much shorter preoperative fasting times, encapsulated in the '2-4-6 rule' - two hours for clear fluids, four hours for breast milk and six hours for soli...

The journal of allergy and clinical immunology. In practice
Perioperative hypersensitivity (POH) is an uncommon, potentially life-threatening event. Identification of POH can be difficult given the lack of familiarity, physiologic effects of anesthesia, draping of the patient during surgery and potential non-immunologic factors contributing to signs and symptoms. Given the unique nature and large number of ...

Phaeochromocytomas (PCC) and paragangliomas (PGL; together PPGL) are rare tumours of the adrenal medulla or extra-adrenal paraganglia. They may secrete catecholamines with significant cardiovascular effects. Management of PPGL is predominantly surgical, despite the anaesthetic risks related to potential haemodynamic instability. Meticulous pre-trea...
