Sinus arrest induced by trivial nasal stimulation during alfentanil-nitrous oxide anaesthesia.
A case is reported of bradycardia and sinus arrest induced by insertion of a nasal temperature probe. Other possible causes of bradycardia and sinus arrest under anaesthesia are reviewed briefly. Evidence for the neurological basis of a nasocardiac reflex, similar to the oculocardiac reflex, is presented. A minor, trivial stimulus may elicit this reflex.
متن کاملClosed-loop feedback controlled administration of alfentanil during alfentanil-nitrous oxide anaesthesia.
We have studied the automatic administration of alfentanil during alfentanil-nitrous oxide anaesthesia in 11 patients using a closed-loop feedback control system based on EEG analysis. We chose a median EEG frequency of 2-4 Hz as the EEG set point. The slope of the asymptote to the cumulative dose requirement was used to define an effective therapeutic infusion of alfentanil. Median EEG frequen...
متن کاملSynergism between atracurium and vecuronium in infants and children during nitrous oxide-oxygen-alfentanil anaesthesia.
This study was undertaken to see if infants are more sensitive than children to a combination of atracurium and vecuronium in an equipotent dose ratio: (microgram: microgram) 5:1 in infants and 4:1 in children. We studied 15 infants (1-11 months old) and 15 children (3-10 yr old) during nitrous oxide-oxygen-alfentanil anaesthesia. Neuromuscular function was recorded by adductor pollicis EMG. An...
متن کاملTympanic membrane rupture during nitrous oxide anaesthesia.
trisiiicate is not now the alkali of choice, but there are alternatives. I believe that metoclopramide, by increasing lower oesophageal sphincter tone, hastening gastric emptying and preventing vomiting, is an appropriate drug to use. These young women are usually otherwise healthy, often undergoing an investigative procedure. It is imperative that the anaesthetic technique is designed to keep ...
متن کاملSurgical stimulation increases median nerve somatosensory evoked responses during isoflurane-nitrous oxide anaesthesia.
Median nerve somatosensory evoked responses (MnSSER) were recorded in 15 healthy adult patients, ASA I-II, before and during orthopaedic surgery. After induction of anaesthesia with fentanyl 0.1-0.15 mg, etomidate 0.3 mg kg-1 and vecuronium 0.1 mg kg-1, anaesthesia was maintained with 0.6% isoflurane (end-tidal) and 66% nitrous oxide in oxygen. MnSSER were recorded after establishment of steady...
