apnea and Malnutrition

apnea has been researched along with Malnutrition in 2 studies

Apnea: A transient absence of spontaneous respiration.

Malnutrition: An imbalanced nutritional status resulting from insufficient intake of nutrients to meet normal physiological requirement.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" For those patients in a poor nutritional state who experience an unexpected episode of apnea or prolonged neuromuscular blockade, practitioners must always consider malnutrition-induced pseudocholinesterase deficiency as a possible etiology."3.83A Case of Pseudocholinesterase Deficiency Resulting From Malnutrition. ( Beilman, GJ; Birch, M; LaRocca, CJ, 2016)
" We present an unusual case of unanticipated postoperative apnea following mivacurium administration, as a result of acquired plasma cholinesterase deficiency, in a patient with previous uneventful exposure to both mivacurium and suxamethonium (succinylcholine)."3.72Prolonged neuromuscular blockade as a result of malnutrition-induced pseudocholinesterase deficiency. ( Leonard, IE; Niazi, A; O'Kelly, B, 2004)
