Background and Goal of Study: Post-operative Quality Recovery Scale (PQRS), is the first scale evaluating several domains of postoperative recovery. The objectives of this study were to compare overal and physiologic, cognitive, and functional domains of post-operative recovery af ter elective surgical procedures using neostigmine or sugammadex as neuromuscular blocking (NMB) reversal agents, to validate the us...
O bloqueio neuromuscular (BNM) residual é um fenómeno frequente em doentes cirúrgicos após administração de relaxantes musculares. Está associado a um aumento da morbilidade e mortalidade pós-operatória devido às complicações clínicas dos eventos associados. O sugamadex é um novo fármaco para reversão do BNM induzido por rocurónio ou vecurónio. Como primeiro agente selectivo de ligação aos relaxantes musculares...
We determined the effects of exercise training and detraining on the morphological and mechanical properties of left ventricular myocytes in 4-month-old spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) randomly divided into the following groups: sedentary for 8 weeks (SED-8), sedentary for 12 weeks (SED-12), treadmill-running trained for 8 weeks (TRA, 16 m/min, 60 min/day, 5 days/week), and treadmill-running trained for 8...
Abstract Remifentanil has important side effects and it is not easy to know what remifentanil concentrations should be used during different endpoints of anaesthesia. We analyzed the remifentanil predicted effect-site concentrations (RemiCe) at different events during neurosurgical procedures and assessed if the concentrations used were clinically adequate. BIS and haemodynamic parameters were collected every 5...
