OVERVIEW

General anesthesia with double-lumen endotracheal tube, with or without NMBDs.

Some drugs cause weak muscle. Vietnam hasn’t a lot of study topics like

this yet.

Purposes:

To investigate the correlation between 2 groups

patients with and without using NMBDs vs post-op

respiratory failure ratio and recoverable time after

anesthesia.

PHYSIOLOGY OF NEUROMUSCULAR TRANSMISSIONS

MOTOR UNIT

PHYSIOLOGY OF NEUROMUSCULAR TRANSMISSION

Stimulated neuron openning Calci channel Ach from synaptic vesicles in presynapse terminal go out.

Ach – AchR openning channel

Na, Ca flows enter depolarizing motor end plate.

Action potential across on cell membrane surface.

MECHANISM OF NMBDs

Depolarizing NMBDs: linking AChR Depolarize the end plate phase I block prolonged connection of succinylcholin Deforming AchR structure phase II block.

Non-depolarizing NMBDs: linking with 1 unit abnormalities of Ach-AChR no depolarize the end plate.

EFFECTS OF NMBDs IN NEUROMUSCULAR DYSFUNCTIONS

Decreasing the number of AChRs Decreasing the number of AChRs because of:because of:

• Changing the function of AChRs .Changing the function of AChRs .• Increasing the degradation of AChRs.Increasing the degradation of AChRs.• Destroying the surface of postsynapse.Destroying the surface of postsynapse.

CONCLUSIONCONCLUSION

MG patients have the same status, general anesthesia, surgical time, using the same anesthetic and analgesic drugs during and post-op the patients, who use NMBDs were the time of post-op spontaneous ventilation via endotrachea, of mechanism ventilation, of staying recovery room longer and ratio of post-op mechanism ventilation, respiratory faillure higher than the ones no use NMBDs.
