Patients with very long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (VLCADD) are prone to hypoglycemia and clinical decompensation when metabolic demands of the body are not met. We present a pediatric patient with VLCADD who underwent a posterior spinal fusion for scoliosis requiring intraoperative neurophysiology monitoring. Challenges included minimization of perioperative metabolic stressors and careful selection of anesthetic agents since propofol-based total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) was contraindicated due to its high fatty acid content...

BACKGROUND: The alteration of the prognostic nutritional index (PNI) or the utilization of distinct anesthesia strategies has been linked to the prognosis of various cancer types, but the existing evidence is limited and inconclusive, particularly for colorectal cancer (CRC). Our objective was to evaluate the association between PNI change and progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients treated with CRC surgery after propofol-based or sevoflurane-based anesthesia...

Objectives  Total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) is used during surgery with intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring. Addition of adjuvant may minimize suppression of potentials by reducing doses of propofol. We studied the effect of addition of ketamine or dexmedetomidine to propofol-fentanyl-based TIVA on corticobulbar motor evoked potential (CoMEP) in patients undergoing posterior fossa surgeries. Materials and Methods  Forty-two patients were assigned to three groups ( n  = 14 each), Group S-saline, Group D-dexmedetomidine (0...

PURPOSE: Prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is important to achieve DREAM (drinking, eating, mobilization). Ondansetron inhibits PONV, but its effects on postoperative food intake have not been investigated. This study aimed to examine associations between ondansetron and PONV incidence, and postoperative food intake. METHODS: This retrospective study included adult patients (n = 632) who underwent laparoscopic gynecological surgery at Kyushu University Hospital between January 2017 and June 2023...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The choice between inhalational and total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) in revascularization surgery for Moyamoya disease (MMD) remains a topic of debate. Anesthesia methods have changed with the advent of new anesthetics. This study investigated whether modern anesthesia methods affected the development of neurological symptoms after revascularization surgery for MMD. METHODS: This single-center retrospective study included 63 adult patients (82 hemispheres) with MMD treated with direct and indirect bypass surgeries at our hospital between 2013 and 2022...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The widespread use of peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) has revolutionized the management of esophageal motility disorders (EMDs). The introduction of an endoluminal functional lumen imaging probe (EndoFLIP) can serve as a complimentary diagnostic tool to assess the mechanical properties (i.e., pressure, diameter, distensibility and topography) of the esophagus. During EndoFLIP measurements, different anesthesia techniques may induce variable degrees of neuromuscular blockade, potentially affecting esophageal motility and altering the results of EndoFLIP metrics...

Objective: To investigate the relationship between intraoperative electroencephalogram burst suppression (BS) and emergence delirium (ED) in elderly patients undergoing elective laparoscopic surgery under total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA). Methods: From October 2017 to September 2019, a total of 358 elderly patients who underwent elective laparoscopic surgery under TIVA at Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, were included. Patients were divided into two groups based on the confusion assessment method for the intensive care unit (CAM-ICU) assessment conducted before leaving the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU): the ED group [ n =63, 46 males, 17 females, average age of (70...

BACKGROUND: More than 300 million patients undergo surgical procedures requiring anesthesia worldwide annually. There are 2 standard-of-care general anesthesia administration options: inhaled volatile anesthesia (INVA) and total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA). There is limited evidence comparing these methods and their impact on patient experiences and outcomes. Patients often seek this information from sources such as the internet. However, the majority of websites on anesthesia-related topics are not comprehensive, updated, and fully accurate...

BACKGROUND: Various pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) models have been developed to accurately dose propofol administration during total intravenous anesthesia with target-controlled infusion (TIVA-TCI). We aim to clinically compare the performance of the Schnider model and the new and general-purpose Eleveld PK/PD model during TIVA-TCI. METHODS: We conducted a prospective observational study at a single center, enrolling 78 female patients, including 37 adults (aged < 65 years) and 41 elderly patients (aged ≥ 65 years)...

BACKGROUND: A simulated education, prior to surgery about postoperative nasal stuffiness and ease of breathing through the mouth may help patients tolerate discomfort after nasal surgery. This study aimed to investigate the effect of preoperative simulated education on immediate postoperative opioid requirements in patients undergoing elective nasal surgery. METHODS: This randomized controlled trial of 110 patients undergoing nasal surgery randomly allocated patients into either a control (group C) or an education group (group E)...

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to observe the postoperative sleep quality of insomnia patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecologic oncology surgery after total intravenous anesthesia. DESIGN: Prospective study. METHODS: We conducted a prospective, observational study in our hospital. All patients underwent propofol-remifentanil anesthesia without other sedative medications before or during the operation. Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) scores of the baseline value, night-1 (the first night after surgery), night-3, night-5, and night-30 were observed...

BACKGROUND: There is no consensus regarding the superiority of volatile or total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) in reducing the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) after lung resection surgery (LRS). Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate the different anesthetic regimens and the incidence of PPCs in patients who underwent LRS. We hypothesized that TIVA is associated with a lower incidence of PPCs than volatile anesthesia. METHODS: This was a retrospective cohort study of patients who underwent LRS at Taipei Veterans General Hospital between January 2016 and December 2020...

INTRODUCTION: While total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) protocols include Dexamethasone and Ondansetron prophylaxis, bariatric patients continue to be considered at particularly high risk for postoperative nausea/vomiting (PONV). A multimodal approach for prophylaxis is recommended by the Bariatric Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) Society however, there remains a lack of consensus on the optimal strategy to manage PONV in these patients. Haloperidol has been shown at low doses to have a therapeutic effect in treatment of refractory nausea and in PONV prophylaxis in other high risk surgical populations...

BACKGROUND: It has been proposed that dose reduction via co-administration of other agents might ameliorate respiratory depression associated with ketofol. AIMS: The present study was designed to evaluate the effects of adding lidocaine, fentanyl, or dexmedetomidine on the required dose and cardiorespiratory variables in dogs undergoing total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) with ketofol. METHODS: In phase I, twelve dogs (six per each treatment) were induced and maintained with two out of four anesthetic regimens of (1) ketofol (4 mg/kg and 0...

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy has become the second most commonly performed robotic surgical procedure worldwide, therefore, anesthesiologists should be aware of the intraoperative pathophysiological consequences. The aim of this narrative review is to report the most recent updates regarding the intraoperative management of anesthesia, ventilation, hemodynamics and central nervous system, during robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy...

BACKGROUND: Neurological complications during Full-Endoscopic Spine Surgery(FESS) might be attributed to intracranial pressure(ICP) increase due to continuous saline infusion(CSI). Understanding CSI and ICP correlation might modify irrigation pumps usage. The objective was to evaluate invasive ICP during interlaminar FESS; to correlate ICP with irrigation pump parameters(IPP); to evaluate ICP during saline outflow occlusion, commonly used to control bleeding and improve surgeon's view; and after durotomy, simulating accidental dural tear...

PURPOSE: Limited research exists on translation of in-vitro glucose measurement interfering compounds to the in-vivo situation. We investigated whether Point-of-Care glucose measurements by Accu Chek Inform II (ACI II) were accurate to monitor glucose concentrations during surgery with general anesthesia by comparing with the reference laboratory hexokinase plasma glucose test. METHOD: Patients undergoing surgery with general anesthesia were included. Anesthesia was maintained with either Sevoflurane or Total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA)...

Endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) is the gold standard for the management of chronic rhinosinusitis, nasal polyposis, and other pathology involving paranasal sinus as tumors. Intraoperative bleeding during ESS can be challenging due to the narrow sinonasal surgical field, single working hand, and the use of endoscopic instruments, which may affect hemostasis. There is a role for the type of anesthesia technique used for intraoperative bleeding control. Total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) and inhalational anesthesia (IA) are some of the techniques available for anesthetic purposes...

The term "total intravenous anesthesia" refers to the preservation of an anesthetic plane with the use of an injectable anesthetic, a sedative that is often given in intermittent boluses. The tendency to have recurrent unprovoked seizures is known as epilepsy. Its prevalence ranges from 0.5% to 1%. The highest incidence rates are in those with anatomical or developmental brain abnormalities, as well as at the extremes of age. The most common triggering factors for epilepsy are stress and fear. The main advantage of total intravenous anesthesia is the patient's rapid recovery and early ambulatory...

STUDY OBJECTIVE: Administering a 5-hydroxytryptamine-3 receptor (5-HT3) at anesthesia induction may aid in achieving hemodynamic stability during general anesthesia induced using opioids. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the effect of ramosetron, a 5-HT3 antagonist, administered on hypotension at the induction of total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) with propofol and remifentanil. Additionally, we aimed to compare the impact of ramosetron administration at anesthesia induction versus that at the end of the surgery on postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV)...
