Filter by:Patients suffering a stroke with a large vessel occlusion is often treated intra veneous thrombolyse and on top of that also intra arterial therapy. It is unknown what form of anaestesia is best during intra arterial therapy. The investigators will randomize these patients between general anaestesia and local anaestesia. Outcome will be growth of the ischemic lesion as judged on an MRI scan.
The study is to observe whether dexmedetomidine could reduce agitation during emergence from general anesthesia in patients undergoing retroperitoneal laparoscopic surgery.
The study is aimed at whether transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) during general anesthesia could reduce the need for propofol in patients undergoing minor surgery.
Adults patients scheduled for elective surgery were randomly allocated to receive preoxygenation with spontaneous breathing, positive pressure ventilation (positive inspiratory pressure: 12 cmH2O) without PEEP, and with PEEP (positive inspiratory pressure: 12 cmH2O, PEEP: 6 cmH2O). Preoxygenation time was measured from face mask positioning to FEO2=90% (FEO2 : expired fraction of O2). After endotracheal tube placement the time until SpO2=93% (SpO2 : peripheral oxygen saturation) was measured during monitored apnoea. Patient's discomfort was recorded (visual analogue scale).
The study purpose is to compare the effect of different Administration Routes of Pediatric Premedication (including oral administration, intramuscular injection, rectal perfusion, intranasal).
Dexmedetomidine is a selective alpha-2 adrenergic agonist that can be considered as an adjuvant to propofol or inhalational anesthetics. Dexmedetomidine mediate its cardiovascular effect through activation of receptors in central and peripheral nervous system. The classic cardiovascular response of dexmedetomidine is the biphasic with initial short-term increase in blood pressure followed by long-lasting decrease in BP and HR. There were several reports about these hemodynamic changes of dexmedetomidine, but not the evaluation of direct effects on cardiac function. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of dexmedetomidine as an anesthetic adjuvant on cardiac function by using the transesophageal echocardiography.
The μ-opioid receptor agonist methadone is frequently used in adult anesthesia and adult pain therapy. Methadone has an extremely long half-life, which confers therapeutic advantage by providing more stable plasma concentrations and long-lasting pain relief. Methadone perioperative pharmacokinetics and effectiveness in perioperative pain relief in inpatients is well characterized. There is, however, no information on methadone use in an ambulatory surgery setting and outpatient procedures. This pilot investigation will determine effectiveness of intraoperative methadone in reducing postoperative opioid consumption and providing improved pain relief in patients undergoing moderately painful, ambulatory surgical procedures.
Sixty patients aged between 1-10 years, American Society of Anesthesia (ASA) physical status I-II scheduled for MRI were allocated in this randomized double-blinded study. Group 1 received 3 mcg/kg, Group 2 received 4 mcg/kg intranasal dexmedetomidine before imaging. From the beginning on every 10 minutes heart rate (HR), saturation (SpO2) and Ramsey Sedation Score (RSS) were recorded. Induction time was time interval to receive RSS 5. MRI began and separation-score was noted. If intranasal sedation failed, an intravenous canula was placed and propofol was applied. Imaging quality was evaluated. Recovery time was time interval to receive Aldrete-score 9. Parents' satisfaction was questioned before patient was discharged.
The purpose of this study is to examine the dose-response relationship of ketamine in combination with propofol.
The study try to illustrate the possible mechanisms of tending to induce airway spasms and the impact of dexmedetomidine on inflammatory reaction in general anesthesia patients with asthma，by detecting the differences of plasma inflammatory factor interleukin(IL)-4, IL-5, IL-13, IL-17, IL-33, MBP and immunoglobulin E(IgE) levels between asthma patients and non-asthma patients.
