Introducción: Las técnicas de administración de anestesia en cirugía torácica han experimentado gran evolución y mayor fundamento científico. La anestesia intravenosa total basada en la analgesia favorece a que el período perioperatorio transcurra sin dolor y la recuperación sin complicaciones....

Feasibility of non-intubated anesthesia and regional block for thoracoscopic surgery under spontaneous respiration: a prospective cohort study

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 53 (1), 2020
Data about the feasibility and safety of thoracoscopic surgery under non-intubated anesthesia and regional block are limited. In this prospective study, 57 consecutive patients scheduled for thoracoscopic surgery were enrolled. Patients were sedated with dexmedetomidine and anesthetized with propofol and...

INTRODUCTION: The advance in the methods of prenatal diagnosis and surgical techniques have allowed the development of fetal surgery, achieving identification and early treatment of anomalies invalidating extrauterine life. Myelomeningocele (MMC) is the most frequent neural tube defect and its intrauteri...

The effects of remifentanil used during cesarean section on oxidative stress markers in correlation with maternal hemodynamics and neonatal outcome: a randomized controlled trial

Rev. bras. anestesiol; 69 (6), 2019
Abstract Background and objective: Remifentanil is used to attenuate maternal hemodynamic response to intubation and surgical stress during Induction-Delivery period of cesarean section. The goal was to compare the effects of two remifentanil dosing regimens on oxidative stress level, in correlation wit...

Evaluation of Bispectral Index time delay in response to anesthesia induction: an observational study

Rev. bras. anestesiol; 69 (4), 2019
Abstract Background and objectives According to the manufacturer, the Bispectral Index (BIS) has a processing time delay of 5-10 s. Studies addressing this have suggested longer delays. We evaluated the time delay in the Bispectral Index response. Methods Based on clinical data from 45 patients, using ...

Rev. bras. anestesiol; 69 (4), 2019
Abstract Background and objectives Patient self-rating based scales such as Numerical Rating Scale, Visual Analog Scale that is used for postoperative pain assessment may be problematic in geriatric or critically ill patients with communication problems. A method capable of the assessment of pain in obj...

Sufentanil during anesthetic induction of remifentanil-based total intravenous anesthesia: a randomized controlled trial

Rev. bras. anestesiol; 69 (4), 2019
Abstract Background Postoperative pain represents an important concern when remifentanil is used for total intravenous anesthesia because of its ultrashort half-life. Longer acting opioids, such as sufentanil, have been used during induction of remifentanil-based total intravenous anesthesia as a means ...

Opioids in the immune system: from experimental studies to clinical practice

SUMMARY INTRODUCTION: Opioids interact with both innate and adaptive immune systems and have direct effects on opioid receptors located on immune cells. Research on this topic has provided evidence of the opioid influence on the immune response associated with surgical stress. The immunological effects ...

Propofol, fentanyl and remifentanil do not impair the phagocytic capacity to of human peripheral blood polimorphonuclear cells

Rev chil anest; 48 (5), 2019
OBJECTIVES: The capacity of polymorphonuclear cells (PMN) to phagocyte microorganisms is an important function to be preserved during surgical interventions. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the effect of propofol, fentanyl and remifentanil combination on Candida albicans engulfment by h...
