Abstract
Neuromuscular diseases encompass a broad spectrum of conditions that affect the function of peripheral nerves, the neuromuscular junction, and muscles. Patients with these conditions may present unique challenges in the anesthetic setting due to changes in muscular response, risk of respiratory complications, and sensitivity to certain anesthetic agents. Thus, anesthesia plays an essential role in providing comfort and absence of pain during medical interventions, especially in cases of neuromuscular diseases, where adequate administration and in-depth understanding of muscular physiology and the nervous system must be carried out. Objective: Investigate and analyze protocols, techniques and interventions that contribute to the safe and effective management of anesthesia in patients with neuromuscular diseases. Methodology: The Scielo, Medline and Science Direct databases were used, searching for articles published in Portuguese, English or Spanish. Final considerations: By adopting a multidisciplinary approach and constantly updating clinical practices in accordance with scientific advances, healthcare professionals can promote a safe and efficient anesthetic environment for individuals with neuromuscular diseases, thus contributing to improving the quality of medical care in this specific context.
