the use of local anesthesia with lidocaine containing epinephrine in patients with cardiac disease is controversial in the literature. the aim of our study was determining the safety of use the local anesthesia contain epinephrine in patients with ischemic heart disease that undergoing reconstructive surgery. thirty two patients that had known ischemic heart disease and candidate to undergo rec...

PURPOSE During emergence from anesthesia for a craniotomy, maintenance of hemodynamic stability and prompt evaluation of neurological status is mandatory. The aim of this prospective, randomized, double-blind study was to compare the effects of dexmedetomidine and remifentanil on airway reflex and hemodynamic change in patients undergoing craniotomy. MATERIALS AND METHODS Seventy-four patient...

The hemodynamic and antianginal effects of 30 mg of isosorbide dinitrate (ISDN) were assessed in 12 patients with chronic stable angina after initial dosing and after 7 to 10 days of therapy four times daily. During early therapy, ISDN produced significant hemodynamic and antianginal effects that persisted over a 3 hr observation period. During sustained therapy there was attenuation of the hem...

patients and methods this was a randomized double-blinded study conducted on 90 patients (18-65 years old, asa i, ii), who needed intubation following trauma. the patients were randomly divided into three groups, group i, group ii and group iii, who have received alfentanil, fentanyl and sufentanil, respectively. heart rate, blood pressure, saturation of peripheral oxygen and end-tidal carbon d...

Sequential measurements of cardiac output, intravascular pressures, blood gases, pH, blood volume, and oxygen consumption were made in normal subjects and patients in shock before, during, and after infusions of dextran-40. In eight normal subjects the responses were: increased central venous pressure, increased cardiac index, decreased peripheral resistance, and decreased hemoglobin concentrat...
