Acute noncardiogenic pulmonary edema after neostigmine administration during the recovery period of general anesthesia

Abstract: Although neostigmine is widely used for recovery from neuromuscular block and exhibits satisfactory effect in most cases, there is a potential risk of ANPE in some cases, which is rare but potentially fatal and could affect the patient outcomes. Therefore, it is necessary for anesthetists to closely monitor the vital signs of patients after administration of neostigmine in the perioperative period.

“…Neostigmine intoxication can be accidental, but it can be used as a poison for homicidal purposes. 34 To further demonstrate future applicability of the micromotors in this field, we evaluate the feasibility of the method in commonly consumed beverages. Samples without previous pretreatment were spiked with different concentrations of neostigmine, and recovery studies were performed.…”

“…However, pulmonary edema may occur before extubation in some rare cases. Neostigmine might induce noncardiac pulmonary edema by impairing upper airway function by dilating muscles and causing the upper airway to narrow [1,2]. In this case, pulmonary edema occurred perioperatively, as such, neostigmine hypersensitivity was suspected.…”

“…The use of neostigmine is known to be safe and effective. However, several cases of acute pulmonary edema due to the use of neostigmine have been reported [1,2]. Neostigmine-induced pulmonary edema was diagnosed based on the symptoms that occurred soon after the administration of neostigmine, while other causes were ruled out.…”
