neostigmine and Pneumonia

neostigmine has been researched along with Pneumonia in 9 studies

Neostigmine: A cholinesterase inhibitor used in the treatment of myasthenia gravis and to reverse the effects of muscle relaxants such as gallamine and tubocurarine. Neostigmine, unlike PHYSOSTIGMINE, does not cross the blood-brain barrier.
neostigmine : A quaternary ammonium ion comprising an anilinium ion core having three methyl substituents on the aniline nitrogen, and a 3-[(dimethylcarbamoyl)oxy] substituent at position 3. It is a parasympathomimetic which acts as a reversible acetylcholinesterase inhibitor.

Pneumonia: Infection of the lung often accompanied by inflammation.

Atelectasis Area on Chest CT

Atelectasis on Chest CT The lung area was delineated manually. To calculate atelectasis, a region of interest was laid out that encircled the dense part of the lung, excluding large vessels. For further analysis, the lung was divided into four categories: areas with densities ranging from -1000 to -900 Hounsfield units (HU) were classified as over-aerated, from -900 to -500 HU as normally aerated, from -500 to -100 HU as poorly aerated, and from -100 to +100 HU as non-aerated (atelectasis). The proportion of non-aerated lung tissue (-100 to +100 HU) was calculated by dividing the area of the region of interest with the whole lungs. (NCT03503565)
Timeframe: 1 day after the end of surgery
