Efficacy of a single dose of esmolol to prevent extubation-related complications during emergence from anesthesia: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial

Braz. J. Anesth. (Impr.); 73 (4), 2023
Abstract Background Few trials have examined the efficacy of esmolol to attenuate hemodynamic and respiratory responses during extubation. However, the most appropriate dose of esmolol and an optimal protocol for administering this beta-blocker are uncertain. Methods Ninety patients ASA physical status...

Effects of oxycodone hydrochloride and dezocine on hemodynamics and levels of inflammatory factors in patients receiving gynecological laparoscopic surgery under general anesthesia

Abstract We aimed to compare the effects of oxycodone hydrochloride and dezocine on hemodynamics and inflammatory factors in patients receiving gynecological laparoscopic surgery under general anesthesia. A total of 246 patients were divided into group A and B (n=123). Hemorheology indices were recorded ...

Evaluación de la concordancia entre las variaciones de la velocidad pico aórtico y velocidad pico carotídeo con la ventilación mecánica en una población pediátrica sometida a cirugía electiva bajo anestesia general
Evaluation of the agreement between variations in aortic peak velocity and carotid peak velocity with mechanical ventilation in a pediatric population undergoing elective surgery under general anesthesia

Introducción. La variación de la velocidad máxima aórtica con la ventilación mecánica (ΔVpeakAo) ha demostrado ser el mejor predictor de respuesta a volumen en pediatría. Existe evidencia en adultos de que la variación de velocidad máxima de flujo carotídeo (ΔVpeakCar) es predictor de respues...

OBJECTIVE: To determine the prevalence of residual relaxation and the factors related to its presen...

El pensamiento lineal no ajusta a los nuevos conceptos en la anestesia del siglo 21, una discusión narrativa

Rev. chil. anest; 52 (4), 2023
Linear thinking, which explains phenomena in narrow temporalities and with a cause-effect relationship that generate a single possible outcome, has predominated in the everyday life of humankind. Science has shown that linear phenomena are rare in nature and that most of them respond to the dynamics of c...
