Randomized Controlled Trial
[Efficacy and safety of sugammadex (Org 25969) in reversing moderate neuromuscular block induced by rocuronium or vecuronium in Japanese patients].
Efficacy and safety of sugammadex in reversing neuromuscular block induced by rocuronium or vecuronium were investgated in Japanese patients. ⋯ The efficacy and safety of sugammadex were confirmed in Japanese surgical patients.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
[Lower thoracic epidural analgesia improves postoperative analgesia following vaginal total hysterectomy].
In our hospital, lumbar epidural analgesia had been used for postoperative analgesia following vaginal total hysterectomy (VTH). But some patients experienced severe abdominal pain or numbness of the legs. Therefore we planned a randomized prospective study to compare lower thoracic epidural analgesia and lumbar epidural analgesia following VTH. ⋯ Lower thoracic epidural analgesia is more effective to provide postoperative analgesic effect following VTH compared with lumbar epidural analgesia.

Randomized Controlled Trial
[Efficacy and safety of sugammadex (Org 25969) in reversing deep neuromuscular block induced by rocuronium or vecuronium in Japanese patients].
Efficacy and safety of sugammadex in reversing neuromuscular block induced by rocuronium or vecuronium were investgated in Japanese patients. ⋯ The efficacy and safety of sugammadex were confirmed in Japanese surgical patients for reversal from deep block.

We present a case of an 18-year-old male who underwent strabismus operation under general anesthesia. In his childhood, tracheostomy had been performed for the repair of cleft lip and palate. ⋯ Following insertion of air-Q®, trachea was intubated via air-Q® guided with fiberscope. The patient was ventilated via tracheal tube with the air-Q® remaining in place during the operation. air-Q® can be effectively utilized for airway management for an adult Apert syndrome patient
