متن کاملThe oculocardiac reflex: a graphic and statistical analysis in infants and children.
A new method for the detection and recording of the oculocardiac reflex (OCR) is described and applied to 49 healthy infants and children (six months to nine years old) undergoing strabismus surgery under halothane anaesthesia with spontaneous ventilation.

متن کاملThe oculocardiac reflex in strabismus surgery.
During strabismus surgery on 81 extraocular muscles in 49 children the cardiac response to calibrated traction on each of the muscles operated on was studied through the use of a microdisplacement transducer and the tachometer of a cardiac monitor. There was no significant difference in the frequency of induction of the oculocardiac reflex between the medial rectus and the other muscles or betw...
متن کاملComparison of desflurane with sevoflurane for the incidence of oculocardiac reflex in children undergoing strabismus surgery.

This study was designed to evaluate and compare the effect of sevoflurane and desflurane on the incidence of OCR. METHODS After obtaining Institutional Review Board approval and informed consent from parents, we enrolled 237 paediatric patients, aged 2-10 yr, undergoing strabismus surgery. No premedicat...
