TEMPERATURE CHANGES IN CHILDREN DURING GENERAL ANAESTHESIA

Temperature monitoring during general anaesthesia.

A study of core temperature monitoring during general anesthesia indicates that this can be introduced as a routine procedure in order to reduce mortality from malignant hyperpyrexia. The temperature profiles of 2410 patients are presented. Both mean rectal and mean oesophageal temperatures decreased during general anaesthesia. The mean oesophageal temperatures were on average 0.6 degrees C les...

Allergic reactions during general anaesthesia in Slovenian children

Methods We prospectively included 13 children (8 girls, aged 2 to 13 years) that were referred to our department for investigation the cause of systemic allergic reaction during anaesthesia between 2010-13. Diagnostic procedure included detailed history, skin prick and intradermal testing, detection of specific IgE antibodies (to suxametonium, morphin, latex, beta-lactams (BL), chlorhexidine) a...

Changes in ventilatory patterns during halothane anaesthesia in children.

Changes in ventilatory variables (VE, VE, f, Tl/Ttot, VT/Tl, PE'CO2) were studied in 12 unpremedicated children, weighing between 10 and 20 kg, during halothane anaesthesia. At an inspired concentration of 0.5% halothane, respiratory rate increased, VT decreased, and VE did not change markedly. When the inspired halothane concentration increased further, there was a significant decrease in VE, ...
