Journal ArticleDOI

Post-anaesthesia pulmonary complications after use of muscle relaxants (POPULAR): a multicentre, prospective observational study.

Eva Kirmeier, +865 more
TL;DR: It is shown that the use of neuromuscular blocking drugs in general anaesthesia is associated with an increased risk of postoperative pulmonary complications, and Anaesthetists must balance the potential benefits of neurmuscular blockade against the increasedrisk of postoperatively pulmonary complications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of intraoperative high Positive End-Expiratory Pressure (PEEP) with recruitment maneuvers vs low PEEP on postoperative pulmonary complications in obese patients : a randomized clinical trial

Thomas Bluth, +298 more
- 18 Jun 2019 - 
TL;DR: An intraoperative higher level of positive end-expiratory positive pressure (PEEP) with alveolar recruitment maneuvers improves respiratory function in obese patients undergoing surgery, but the effect on clinical outcomes is uncertain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Isoflurane preconditions myocardium against infarction via release of free radicals.

TL;DR: Isoflurane-induced preconditioning depends on the release of free radicals, and the radical scavenger N-(2-mercaptoproprionyl)glycine or Mn(III)tetrakis(4-benzoic acid)porphyrine chloride (MnTBAP; 100 &mgr;g · kg−1 · min−1) had no effect on infarct size.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of enflurane, isoflurane, sevoflurane and desflurane on reperfusion injury after regional myocardial ischaemia in the rabbit heart in vivo.

TL;DR: The results show that desflurane and sevoflurane markedly reduced infarct size and therefore can protect myocardium against reperfusion injury in vivo.
