1. We report a controlled retrospective cohort study of respiratory adverse reactions to ACE inhibitors. Bronchospasm and cough occurred at a higher rate in patients treated with ACE inhibitors, no links with sex, past history of bronchospasm, drug type or dose were found. 2. Cohorts of 1013 patients on angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and 1017 patients on lipid lowering drugs (LL...

UNLABELLED We conducted this study to determine the risk factors for the development of bronchospasm after the administration of rapacuronium and to determine if children with bronchospasm on induction of anesthesia were more likely to have received rapacuronium compared with other muscle relaxants. In a retrospective cohort study, all anesthetic records in which rapacuronium was administered w...

this study represents an attempt to determine the prevalence of exercise-induced bronchospasm among soccer player children. a total of 234 soccer player boys of all soccer schools from shahr-rey enrolled in this study. they did not have any history of a recent or chronic respiratory tract disease, a history of allergic diseases, and history of bronchodilator drugs consumption during the 24 hour...

Bronchospasm is an anesthetic emergency that can lead to disastrous outcomes if treatment is irresolvable. An anesthesia provider must immediately initiate treatment if bronchospasm is suspected in order to avoid negative sequelae. The following is a case report of a 32-year-old man who experienced refractory bronchospasm upon emergence from general anesthesia. This article discusses the initia...

OBJECTIVE Evaluate whether exhaled nitric oxide may serve as a marker of intraoperative bronchospasm. INTRODUCTION Intraoperative bronchospasm remains a challenging event during anesthesia. Previous studies in asthmatic patients suggest that exhaled nitric oxide may represent a noninvasive measure of airway inflammation. METHODS A total of 146,358 anesthesia information forms, which were re...
