High ventilatory frequencies increase static lung strain and possibly lung stress by shortening expiratory time, increasing intrathoracic pressure, and causing dynamic hyperinflation. We hypothesised that high intraoperative ventilatory frequencies were associated with postoperative respiratory complications. ⋯ High intraoperative ventilatory frequency was associated with increased risk of postoperative respiratory complications, and increased postoperative healthcare utilisation.

Supraglottic airway devices may be a safe choice for managing general anaesthetic Caesarean section in selected populations, however the evidence base is still slim.

We hypothesised that Calabadion 1, an acyclic cucurbit[n]uril molecular container, reverses fentanyl-induced respiratory depression and dysfunction of the CNS. ⋯ Calabadion 1 selectively and dose dependently reversed the respiratory system and CNS side-effects of fentanyl.
