متن کاملGeneral anaesthesia for neurosurgery.
Anaesthesia for neurosurgery, especially intracranial operations, requires conditions which maintain the perfusion of the brain with blood. This perfusion results from the cerebral perfusion pressure: the difference between the arterial and the intracranial pressures. Anaesthesia must also facilitate surgical access by reducing brain volume and minimizing surgical haemorrhage. Other common prob...

متن کاملGeneral Anaesthesia in Cattle
General anaesthesia is the controlled and reversible loss of consciousness, which is helpful in ruminants for many surgical procedures that warrant effective control of pain and movement. General anaesthesia is indicated when the demands of technical and anatomical aspects of surgical procedure exceed the capabilities of sedative drugs and local analgesia. Moreover, the patient co-operation and...
متن کاملInduction of general anaesthesia with intraosseous injection of thiopental in rabbits
The technique of intraosseous (IO) infusion has been reemerged as an alternative route of intravascular access for the delivery of fluids and some medications. Complications of IO infusion occur rarely and include fractures and osteomyelitis after long-term use of IO access. The purpose of this study was to compare the efficiency of induction of anaesthesia by a standard intravenous route and a...
