Intravenous channels established ward all children, penehyclidine 0.01 mg/kg ondansetron 0.1 injected intr...

nerve blocks) can be used for multiple surgical procedures [1–3]. The effect of anesthetic technique on perioperative outcomes is controversial. Central neuraxial blocks including spinal, epidural, and caudal anesthesia are regional anesthesia techniques. Regional anesthesia techniques provide important advantages compared with general anesthesia in some surgical procedures [1, 3]. Regional ane...

Its pharmacological action is similar that midazolam. However, differences in metabolic pathway pharmacokinetic profiles its metabolites contribute faster offset remimazolam than The context-sensitive half time (CSHT) short 6.8 ± 2.4 min. An ...

Background: The post-dural puncture headache (PDPH) is a common complication in spinal anesthesia. Headache may occure seven days after dural puncture. The headache may be worsened in sitting position and be better in supine position. PDPH is common in younger and tall people. The incidence rate of PDPH related to the size of spinal needle and the number of try and decrease with small, cutting ...

Regional anesthesia techniques have been increasingly used in orthopedic surgery procedures. Regional anesthesia techniques can be classified as central neuraxial blocks including spinal and epidural anesthesia, peripheral nerve blocks including upper extremity and lower extremity blocks and regional intravenous anesthesia (RIVA) (Table 1). In many clinical studies have been reported that regio...

background: the administration of opioids before induction of general anesthesia can be considered as a problem in cesarean section. the aim of this study was to compare the effects of intravenous fentanyl as a premedication before induction of general anesthesia versus placebo on maternal hemodynamic parameters and on the first and fifth minutes apgar score in the neonates in elective cesarean...

background surgeon’s depend to a large degree on the amount of blood loss and a clear view of the surgical field, when conducting endoscopic procedures in order to achieve satisfactory outcomes. the anesthesiologist’s choice of method for the induction and maintenance of anesthesia plays a major role in achieving this goal. objectives this study was performed in order to compare the two most we...
