Haemodynamic changes during retroperitoneoscopic adrenalectomy for phaeochromocytoma.

Surgical removal of phaeochromocytoma may be accompanied by acute cardiovascular changes. We report the haemodynamic changes in seven patients with retroperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy for phaeochromocytoma. Transient hypertension (systolic pressure (SBP) > 160 mm Hg) was observed in all patients during manipulation of the tumour, in two patients during pneumoretroperitoneum insufflation,...

Haemodynamic changes during high frequency oscillation for respiratory distress syndrome.

In a crossover trial left ventricular output (LVO), cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV), and resistance index (RI) of the anterior cerebral artery were compared using Doppler ultrasonography, in eight preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) during conventional mechanical ventilation and high frequency oscillation. LVO was 14% to 18% lower with high frequency oscillation. There ...

Haemodynamic changes in trauma.

Trauma is the leading cause of death during the first four decades of life in the developed countries. Its haemodynamic response underpins the patient's initial ability to survive, and the response to treatment and subsequent morbidity and resolution. Trauma causes a number of insults including haemorrhage, tissue injury (nociception) and, predominantly, in military casualties, blast from explo...

Haemodynamic and EEG changes during rapid-sequence induction of anaesthesia.

The relationship between the changes in haemodynamic function and the electroencephalogram (EEG) during rapid-sequence induction of anaesthesia was studied in 15 ASA I patients. Anaesthesia was induced with a bolus thiamylal (5 mg.kg-1 iv) followed by succinylcholine (1 mg.kg-1). Tracheal intubation was attempted one minute after the injection of succinylcholine. The EEG was monitored by a comp...
