Carotid-cavernous fistulas (CCFs) are vascular shunts that allow blood to flow from the carotid artery or its branches into the cavernous sinus. Endovascular embolization is the treatment modality of choice. The trigeminocardiac reflex (TCR) is a vagally mediated reflex that can lead to hemodynamic instability. It can be activated during embolization procedures due to the proximity of vagal efferent neurovascular structures within the cavernous sinus. This case report describes the intraoperative management of recurrent, profound bradycardia due to TCR during endovascular CCF embolization.

This review emphasises the importance of the cardiovascular response to facial cooling (FC) and breath holding in both sexes. The trigemino-cardiac reflex, triggered by FC, reduces heart rate (HR) and constricts blood vessels. When combined with breath holding, this effect intensifies, enhancing the cardiodepressive impact.

Background: In recent years, β-blockers such as metoprolol have been upgraded to first-line antihypertensive drugs. However, metoprolol demonstrates poor prognosis effects on diseases such as stroke. Further clinical application may expand the possibility of its related adverse reactions.

Article Synopsis
- Trigeminal neuralgia causes severe facial pain, and percutaneous balloon compression (PBC) is a common treatment, though it can provoke trigeminocardiac reflex (TCR), resulting in heart complications.
- This study compares the effects of remimazolam and propofol anesthesia on the occurrence of TCR during PBC in patients with trigeminal neuralgia.
- Results showed that remimazolam significantly reduced the incidence of TCR and severe TCR compared to propofol, while also maintaining a higher heart rate, with no increase in adverse events.
Dexmedetomidine: a real-world safety analysis based on FDA adverse event reporting system database.

Objective: Using the FDA adverse event reporting system (FAERS) database to analyze the safety profile of Dexmedetomidine and provide guidance for clinical application.
Methods: Data from the FAERS database from the first quarter of 2004 to the third quarter of 2023 were collected. Reporting odds ratio (ROR), the proportional reporting ratio (PRR), and the Bayesian confidence propagation neural network (BCPNN) were employed to detect and assess adverse events associated with Dexmedetomidine.
