This systematic review was conducted to evaluate the optimal weight scalar to dose sugammadex in a morbidly obese (MO) patient population (BMI≥40 kg/m). The primary outcome was recovery time from moderate neuromuscular blockade (NMB) or deep NMB. Secondary outcomes included time to extubation and incidence of postoperative residual curarization (PORC). Eight randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving 645 participants were included. The different dose scalars included were total body weight (TBW), ideal body weight (IBW), 20% corrected body weight (CBW) and 40% CBW). A dose of 2 mg/kg of sugammadex based on 40% CBW and a 4 mg/kg dose of sugammadex based on 40% CBW provide a reliable and timely reversal of moderate and deep NMB respectively in the MO patients.

Background: Sugammadex was initially approved for reversal of neuromuscular blockade in adults in the United States in 2015. Limited data suggest sugammadex is widely used in pediatric anesthesia practice however the factors influencing use are not known. We explore patient, surgical, and institutional factors associated with the decision to use sugammadex versus neostigmine or no reversal, and the decision to use 2 mg/kg vs 4 mg/kg dosing.

The field of interventional pulmonology has grown immensely and is increasingly recognized as a subspecialty. The new procedures introduced in the last decade pose unique challenges, and anesthesiologists need to readapt to their specific demands. In this review, we extensively discuss the pathophysiology, technical aspects, preprocedural preparation, anesthetic management, and postprocedural challenges of many new procedures such as navigational bronchoscopy, endobronchial valve deployment, and bronchial thermoplasty.

Background: A booster dose can result in a similar reaction to the initial dose. Neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs) can produce a comparable reaction in the absence of specific pathophysiologic alterations.
Case: An initial dose of rocuronium 40 mg was given to a male patient (50 years old, height 168 cm, weight 54 kg, body mass index 19.
