Remifentanil-Propofol-Ketamine- Based Total Intravenous Anesthesia with Spontaneous Breathing for Adult Rigid Bronchoscopy.
J Clin Med
January 2025
Department of Thoracic Surgery, Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Campus Bio-Medico, Via Alvaro del Portillo, 200, 00128 Rome, Italy.
Rigid bronchoscopy (RB) is the gold standard for managing central airway obstruction (CAO), a life-threatening condition caused by both malignant and benign etiologies. Anesthetic management is challenging as it requires balancing deep sedation with maintaining spontaneous breathing to avoid airway collapse. There is no consensus on the optimal anesthetic approach, with options including general anesthesia with neuromuscular blockers or spontaneous assisted ventilation (SAV).

Department of Anaesthesiology, Peking University First Hospital, Beijing, China; Outcomes Research Consortium, Cleveland, OH, USA.
Background: The Qnox index is a novel monitor to quantify intraoperative nociception based on an electroencephalographic algorithm. We evaluated the ability of the Qnox index to discriminate noxious from non-noxious stimuli, respond to stimuli, and discriminate different levels of analgesia in patients under propofol anaesthesia with neuromuscular block.
Methods: Qnox was compared with heart rate and mean arterial pressure with five designated stimuli: tetanic stimulations without (tetanic 1) and with sufentanil (tetanic 2), skin incision, tracheal intubation, and a non-noxious period.
Effect of remimazolam on intraoperative hemodynamic stability in patients undergoing cerebrovascular bypass surgery: a prospective randomized controlled trial.
Korean J Anesthesiol
January 2025
Department of Anesthesiology & Pain Medicine, Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, Seongnam, Korea.
Background: Maintenance of stable blood pressure (BP) during cerebrovascular bypass surgery is crucial to prevent cerebral ischemia. We compared the effect of remimazolam anesthesia with that of propofol-induced and desflurane-maintained anesthesia on intraoperative hemodynamic stability and the need for vasoactive agents in patients undergoing cerebrovascular bypass surgery.
Methods: Sixty-five patients were randomized into remimazolam (n = 31, remimazolam-based intravenous anesthesia) and control groups (n = 34, propofol-induced and desflurane-maintained anesthesia).
Opioid use in treated and untreated obstructive sleep apnoea: remifentanil pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in adult volunteers.
Br J Anaesth
January 2025
Department of Anesthesiology, Duke University School of Medicine, Durham, NC, USA; Bermaride LLC, Durham, NC, USA. Electronic address:
Background: Patients with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) are considered more sensitive to opioids and at increased risk of opioid-induced respiratory depression. Nonetheless, whether OSA treatment (continuous positive airway pressure, CPAP; or bilevel positive airway pressure, BIPAP) modifies this risk remains unknown. Greater opioid sensitivity can arise from altered pharmacokinetics or pharmacodynamics.

Korean J Anesthesiol
January 2025
Department of Anesthesiology, Ondokuz Mayis University, School of Medicine, Kurupelit, Samsun, Turkey, TR55139.
Background: Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) causes significant postoperative pain, necessitating effective multimodal analgesia strategies. This study evaluated the efficacy of the external oblique intercostal block (EOIB) in this context.
Methods: This prospective, randomized, controlled, single-blind study conducted between April and December 2023 included 60 patients who underwent LSG.
