As such, newer and safer methods of providing anesthetic care are continually being sought. To this end, there is a growing body of evidence that may suggest that higher than Food and Drug Administration approved dosages of dexmedetomidine may offer another option in the arsenal of the anesthesiologist in this patient population. We recently cared for a middle aged male who presented with a large mediastinal mass, extrinsic compression critical tracheal stenosis, superior vena cava syndrome, and massive supraclavicular lymphadenopathy, scheduled for tracheal stent placement, biopsy, and diagnostic evaluation of the esophagus. After reviewing anesthetic options, we deemed the safest technique available to us to be the use of a high dose dexmedetomidine based technique with continuous infusion rate of 2mcg/kg/hr. Spontaneous respirations were maintained throughout the case, with a stable heart rate and blood pressure, and our patient tolerated the procedure without complications.","PeriodicalId":272376,"journal":{"name":"The Open Anesthesiology Journal","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128285846","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this report, we present an unusual case of an undiagnosed chrondrosarcoma of the larynx presenting as difficult intubation in an otherwise asymptomatic patient. Difficult intubation in an otherwise asymptomatic patient has not been reported as an initial presentation of this tumor. Men are more commonly affected than women (3.6: 1), and the tumors typically present in the fifth or sixth decade of life. Patients may present with dyspnea, dysphagia, hoarseness of the voice, airway obstruction and some may have pain as a result of expansion of this tumor. The tumors almost always arise from hyaline cartilage, with the most common site of involvement the cricoid cartilage (75%), specifically the posterior lamina, with the thyroid cartilage and arytenoid cartilage less frequently involved. Though locally invasive, these tumors are characterized by a low tendency for distant metastasis and the overall prognosis following excision is excellent (2).","PeriodicalId":272376,"journal":{"name":"The Open Anesthesiology Journal","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125163466","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Morbidly obese patients have a greater incidence of co-morbid disease, including OSA. OSA is characterized by repeated upper airway obstruction and arousal during sleep, sympathetic activation, hypertension and daytime somnolence. In morbidly obese OSA patients undergoing surgical procedures, the perioperative period is more challenging than in non obese OSA patients. Their airway anatomy is often abnormal with excess pharyngeal tissue and tongue size making it difficult to ventilate thru a facemask and to establish tracheal intubation. Several suggestions for optimizing the anesthetic induction, emergence, and early recovery periods in these patients are offered. Most important are positioning of the patient (both during and post surgery), pre-oxygenation prior to intubation, proper dosing of anesthetic maintenance drugs to ideal body weight, alveolar recruitment maneuvers, full reversal of paralysis at the end of surgery, and careful drug titration in recovery to improve pulmonary mechanics. With proper preparation and precautions it is possible to avoid the significant high frequency of respiratory and cardiac complications observed in these patients and to avoid or better manage length of hospital stay, unplanned ICU admission and/or reintubation.","PeriodicalId":272376,"journal":{"name":"The Open Anesthesiology Journal","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-07-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131401211","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There is great variability in opioid-induced side effects due to individual biological factors, patient co-morbidities and drug interactions. Normal respiratory rhythm generation is decreased primarily via inhibititory effects within the pre-Botzinger complex. Central chemosensitivity to hypercapnia and hypoxia are blunted by opioids at the levels of the retrotrapezoid nucleus, medullary raphe nucles and nucleus tractus solitarius. Opioids also decrease central drive to both respiratory pump muscles and the upper airway dilator muscles. Opioid-induced respiratory depression can be reversed by naloxone, and recent data suggest that 5-HT4(a) agonists and ampakines are effective to reverse some of the opioid-induced respiratory depressant effects. The potentially fatal side effects of respiratory depression within the acute peri-operative setting necessitates effective monitoring of respiratory function in all patients receiving opioid therapy. Each institution needs to develop an optimal organization structure locally to define appropriate methods for avoiding medication errors, titrating opioids to target effect, and monitoring for respiratory side effects.","PeriodicalId":272376,"journal":{"name":"The Open Anesthesiology Journal","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-07-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127491965","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
