Cardiac Arrest Upon Induction of General Anesthesia - PMC Vagal responses from stimulation such as laryngoscopy, vagotonic anesthetics, sympatholytic anesthetic agents, and β-blockers are common causes of bradycardia, which can result in cardiac arrest if left uncorrected
Cardiac Arrest Upon Induction of General Anesthesia - PubMed There are numerous causes of cardiac arrest in the perioperative period, including hypoxia, hypovolemia, and vagal response to medications or procedures during routine anesthetics
Sudden cardiac death during anesthesia in non-cardiac surgery and its . . . We found 3 cases with explained causes; peripartum cardiomyopathy, myocarditis and ischemic heart disease where the risk of sudden cardiac death in anesthesia is well known and helps anesthetists and surgeons explain the cardiac arrest
Anesthesia-related Cardiac Arrest : Anesthesiology Sixty-four percent of anesthesia-attributable cardiac arrests were caused by airway complications that occurred primarily with induction, emergence, or in the postanesthesia care unit, and mortality was 29% Anesthesia-contributory cardiac arrest occurred during all phases of the anesthesia, and mortality was 70% Conclusion:
Crisis management during anaesthesia: cardiac arrest Identified aetiological factors were grouped into five categories: (1) anaesthetic technique (11 cases with this category alone; 32 with this and one or more of the other categories, representing 25% of all 129 cardiac arrests); (2) drug related (16; 32, 25%); (3) associated with surgical procedure (9; 29, 22%); (4) associated with pre-existing
Cardiac arrest in adult patients receiving anaesthetic care for . . . Anaesthetic representation in cardiology suites can be inconsistent, making critical incidents particularly challenging The combination of unfamiliar cases, environments and teams increases the risk of cardiac arrest and lowers survival rates
Fatal and non fatal cardiac arrests related to anesthesia The main causes of anesthesia related cardiac arrest were anesthetic over-dose (four cases), hypovolemia (two cases) and hypoxemia due to difficult tracheal intubation (two cases) No cardiac arrests due to alveolar hypoventilation were noted during the postoperative peri-ods in either PACU or ICU
Anesthesia-related unexpected cardiac arrest— What are we doing wrong . . . General anesthesia was induced with a target-controlled infusion (TCI) of remifentanil (effect-site concentration 2ng mL) and propofol (total of 80 mg infused by TCI view mode), followed by rocuronium for neuromuscular blockade Tracheal intubation was easy
Cardiac arrest during anesthesia Cardiac arrest during anesthesia has causes and unique features beyond the scope of current guidelines, and anesthesiologists have to develop and maintain aware-ness and competence to handle the situation
