Purpose. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of nicardipine and
lidocaine in attenuation of cardiovascular responses to endotracheal intubation.
Methods. In a randomized, double-blind, controlled trial, 60 unpremedicated (ASA
I) patients undergoing elective sur-gery were given either 30 μg·kg−1
nicardipine or 1.5 mg·kg−1 lidocaine intravenously 2 min before intubation.

The effect of intravenously administered pentobarbital sodium on the activity of
single unit in Rexed lamina V of the transected feline lumbar spinal cord was
studied using an extracellular microelectrode recording technique. Pentobarbital
sodium 1.0 mg·kg−1, 2.5 mg·kg−1, and 5.0 mg·kg−1 administered intravenously
suppressed both the spontaneous and the evoked activity in Rexed lamina V cells,

Left-molar approach for direct laryngoscopy: is it easy?Journal of Anesthesia - Tập 23 - Trang 36-40 - 2009

For direct laryngoscopy, we compared midline and left-molar approaches with
respect to ease of intubation, using a Macintosh blade. We investigated the
relationship between failure of the left-molar approach and preoperative risk
factors for difficult intubation. With local ethics committee approval, 200
consecutive adult, nonpregnant patients were included in the study. The
demographic data, body... hiện toàn bộ
Postischemic infusion of sivelestat sodium hydrate, a selective neutrophil elastase inhibitor, protects against myocardial stunning in swineJournal of Anesthesia - Tập 24 - Trang 575-581 - 2010

It seems controversial whether or not neutrophil elastase inhibitors are
effective in attenuating myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury. We thus
investigated possible protective effects of sivelestat, a neutrophil elastase
inhibitor, against myocardial stunning i.e., prolonged myocardial dysfunction
following a brief episode of ischemia. Swine were divided into control group
(group C), low-dose s... hiện toàn bộ
Direct effects of Rho-kinase inhibitor on pial microvessels in rabbitsJournal of Anesthesia - Tập 29 - Trang 186-190 - 2014

Rho-kinase inhibitor is widely used for prevention of cerebral vascular spasm.
However, the cerebral pial vascular action of Rho-kinase inhibitor has not been
investigated. We therefore evaluated the direct effects of Y-27632, a Rho-kinase
inhibitor, on pial microvessels. Experiments were performed on anesthetized
rabbits. A closed cranial window was used to visualize the pial
microcirculation. Af... hiện toàn bộ
CT-guided nerve block: a review of the features of CT fluoroscopic guidance for nerve blocksJournal of Anesthesia - Tập 28 - Trang 94-101 - 2013
Shiro Koizuka, Kunie Nakajima, Rie Mieda
Nerve blocks are an attractive interventional therapy in pain medicine. Several
image guidance methods are available to secure the safety, accuracy, and
selectivity of the nerve block. Computed tomography (CT) guidance provides a
clear view of the vital viscera and vessels that should be avoided by the
needle, and accurate placement of the needle tip before neuro-destructive
procedures. A recent a... hiện toàn bộ
