Case Reports[Rocuronium and sugammadex use for the management of neuromuscular blockade in urgent abdominal surgery in a patient with Landouzy-Dejerine myopathy.]
In patients with neuromuscular diseases, the use of rocuronium in the general anesthesia rapid sequence induction provides safety intubation conditions, but induces a deep and prolonged neuromuscular blockade. We report dose reduction to 0.8mg/kg for a 47-year-old female with Landouzy-Dejerine myopathy. Therefore, less dose of sugammadex was given to reverse the neuromuscular block.

Evaluation of the acceptability of complications related to obstetrical epidural analgesia in two populations, parturients and anesthesiologists. ⋯ In this study, the overall acceptability of the inherent complications of epidural analgesia was good in the two populations. It was essentially based on the notion of severity and preventability. A large interindividual variability was observed and a better acceptance by the anesthesiologists.
