    Abstract: Coronary arterial aneurysms (CAAs) associated with Kawasaki disease (KD) significantly affect prognosis. However, the clinical course of CAAs and factors associated with CAA regression have not been well analyzed. Methods and Results The cohort of the Z‐Score 2nd Project Stage study, a multicenter, retrospective, cohort study involving 44 institutions in Japan including 1006 patients with KD, was examined. CAAs were classified by the z score of their internal diameter in the acute phase: small ( z 〈 5), medium (5≤ z 〈 10), and large ( z ≥10). The lower limit of small CAA was based on the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare criteria. In the right coronary artery, the CAA regression rates 10 years after diagnosis were 95.5% for small, 83.2% for medium, and 36.3% for large. In the proximal left anterior descending artery, the regression rates 10 years after diagnosis were 95.3% for small, 80.1% for medium, and 28.8% for large. Cox regression analysis showed that diagnosis under the age of 1 year and onset of KD in 2010 to 2012 for the right coronary artery and the left anterior descending artery, and female for the right coronary artery were significantly associated with a high regression rate, whereas large CAAs for the right coronary artery and the left anterior descending artery were significantly associated with a low regression rate. Conclusions The current study, the largest Japanese study of its kind, found that small aneurysm, recent onset, and diagnosis under the age of 1 year predict regression, and that even giant aneurysms could regress. These data may contribute to long‐term management of coronary aneurysms. Registration URL: https://www.umin.ac.jp/ctr/ ; Unique identifier: UMIN000010606.

    Abstract: Depending on upper airway patency during anesthesia induction, tidal volume achieved by mask ventilation may vary. In 80 adult patients undergoing general anesthesia, the authors tested a hypothesis that tidal volume during mask ventilation is smaller in patients with sleep-disordered breathing priorly defined as apnea hypopnea index greater than 5 per hour. Methods One-hand mask ventilation with a constant ventilator setting (pressure-controlled ventilation) was started 20 s after injection of rocuronium and maintained for 1 min during anesthesia induction. Mask ventilation efficiency was assessed by the breath number needed to initially exceed 5 ml/kg ideal body weight of expiratory tidal volume (primary outcome) and tidal volumes (secondary outcomes) during initial 15 breaths (UMIN000012494). Results Tidal volume progressively increased by more than 70% in 1 min and did not differ between sleep-disordered breathing (n = 42) and non–sleep-disordered breathing (n = 38) patients. In post hoc subgroup analyses, the primary outcome breath number (mean [95% CI], 5.7 [4.1 to 7.3] vs. 1.7 [0.2 to 3.2] breath; P = 0.001) and mean tidal volume (6.5 [4.6 to 8.3] vs. 9.6 [7.7 to 11.4] ml/kg ideal body weight; P = 0.032) were significantly smaller in 20 sleep-disordered breathing patients with higher apnea hypopnea index (median [25th to 75th percentile] : 21.7 [17.6 to 31] per hour) than in 20 non–sleep disordered breathing subjects with lower apnea hypopnea index (1.0 [0.3 to 1.5] per hour). Obesity and occurrence of expiratory flow limitation during one-hand mask ventilation independently explained the reduction of efficiency of mask ventilation, while the use of two hands effectively normalized inefficient mask ventilation during one-hand mask ventilation. Conclusions One-hand mask ventilation is difficult in patients with obesity and severe sleep-disordered breathing particularly when expiratory flow limitation occurs during mask ventilation.

    Abstract: Complete recovery from rocuronium-induced muscle paralysis with sugammadex is reported to be delayed in elderly patients. The authors tested a hypothesis that recovery from deep neuromuscular block with low-dose sugammadex is slower (primary hypothesis) and incidence of recurarization is higher (secondary hypothesis) in elderly patients than in nonelderly patients. Methods In anesthetized elderly (n = 20; 76.9 ± 5.0 yr of age) and nonelderly patients (n = 20; 53.7 ± 12.8 yr of age) under deep paralysis with rocuronium, change of train-of-four ratio per minute (primary outcome variable) was measured with an acceleromyograph neuromuscular monitor during spontaneous recovery from rocuronium-induced muscle paralysis (0.6 mg/kg) and after infusion of low-dose sugammadex (50 µg · kg-1 · min-1). Recurarization was defined as the negative change of train-of-four ratio. Results Spontaneous train-of-four ratio recovery rate was significantly slower in the elderly group (median [25th percentile, 75th percentile]: 1.89 [1.22, 2.90] %/min) than in the nonelderly group (3.45 [1.96, 4.25] %/min, P = 0.024). Train-of-four ratio change rate in response to low-dose sugammadex was significantly slower in elderly (0.55 [–0.29, 1.54] %/min) than in the nonelderly group (1.68 [0.73, 3.13] %/min, P = 0.024). Incidence of recurarization was significantly higher in the elderly group than in the nonelderly group (35% vs. 5%, P = 0.044). Multiple linear regression analyses indicate that slower spontaneous train-of-four ratio recovery rate and impaired renal function are two major contributing factors that decrease train-of-four ratio change rate in response to low-dose sugammadex. Conclusions Elderly patients are at greater risk for recurarization and residual muscle paralysis when low-dose sugammadex is administered.

    Abstract: Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) remains a lethal congenital cardiac defect. Recent studies have suggested that intracoronary administration of autologous cardiosphere-derived cells (CDCs) may improve ventricular function. Objective: The aim of this study was to test whether intracoronary delivery of CDCs is feasible and safe in patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome. Methods and Results: Between January 5, 2011, and January 16, 2012, 14 patients (1.8±1.5 years) were prospectively assigned to receive intracoronary infusion of autologous CDCs 33.4±8.1 days after staged procedures (n=7), followed by 7 controls with standard palliation alone. The primary end point was to assess the safety, and the secondary end point included the preliminary efficacy to verify the right ventricular ejection fraction improvements between baseline and 3 months. Manufacturing and intracoronary delivery of CDCs were feasible, and no serious adverse events were reported within the 18-month follow-up. Patients treated with CDCs showed right ventricular ejection fraction improvement from baseline to 3-month follow-up (46.9%±4.6% to 52.1%±2.4%; P =0.008). Compared with controls at 18 months, cardiac MRI analysis of CDC-treated patients showed a higher right ventricular ejection fraction (31.5%±6.8% versus 40.4%±7.6%; P =0.049), improved somatic growth ( P =0.0005), reduced heart failure status ( P =0.003), and lower incidence of coil occlusion for collaterals ( P =0.007). Conclusions: Intracoronary infusion of autologous CDCs seems to be feasible and safe in children with hypoplastic left heart syndrome after staged surgery. Large phase 2 trials are warranted to examine the potential effects of cardiac function improvements and the long-term benefits of clinical outcomes.

    Abstract: Rapid emergence from general anaesthesia is desirable only if safety is not sacrificed. Mechanical hyperventilation during hypercapnia produced by carbon dioxide infusion into the inspired gas mixture or by rebreathing was reported to shorten emergence time from inhalation anaesthesia. OBJECTIVES To test the hypothesis that hypercapnia produced by hypoventilation before desflurane cessation shortens emergence time from general anaesthesia (primary hypothesis) and reduces undesirable cardiorespiratory events. DESIGN A single-blinded randomised controlled study. SETTING A single university hospital. PATIENTS Fifty adult patients undergoing elective abdominal surgery under general anaesthesia using desflurane inhalation and intra-operative epidural anaesthesia. INTERVENTION The patients were randomly assigned to either the normocapnia or hypercapnia group. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Emergence time from desflurane anaesthesia and comparison of the incidence of 11 predefined undesirable cardiorespiratory events during and after emergence from anaesthesia between the groups. RESULTS Forty-six patients were included in the analysis. End-tidal carbon dioxide concentrations at cessation of desflurane were 35 ± 6 mmHg (mean ± SD) and 52 ± 6 mmHg in normocapnia ( n  = 23) and hypercapnia groups ( n  = 23), respectively. Emergence time was significantly faster in the hypercapnia group than the normocapnia group: 9.4 ± 2.4 min, hypercapnia: 5.5 ± 2.6 min, ( P   〈  0.001) with a difference of 3.8 min on average (95% CI: 2.4 to 5.3). Spontaneous breathing established before recovery of consciousness was more evident in hypercapnia patients (normocapnia: 13%, hypercapnia: 96%, P   〈  0.001). Hypercapnia patients had more episodes of bradypnoea and apnoea before emergence of consciousness. In contrast, after tracheal extubation, incidences of bradypnoea and hypopnoea were more common in the normocapnia group. Undesirable cardiovascular events were not common, and no group differences were observed during emergence and postextubation periods. CONCLUSION Hypoventilation-induced hypercapnia before desflurane cessation shortens the emergence time without causing additional clinically significant undesirable events.
