Tympanic 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 کاملTympanic membrane rupture following general anesthesia with nitrous oxide: a case report.
Although rare, tympanic membrane rupture during general anesthesia with nitrous oxide has been reported previously in the literature. Nitrous oxide administration and the effects on closed body cavities will be reviewed. Key factors in patient assessment which can determine safe use of nitrous oxide in the clinical setting will also be discussed.
متن کاملInspiratory to end-tidal oxygen difference during nitrous oxide anaesthesia.
In order to evaluate the value of the inspiratory to end-tidal oxygen concentration difference (Io2-E'o2) as a monitor during general anaesthesia, we studied 40 orthopaedic patients allocated randomly to four groups: anaesthesia with enflurane or isoflurane in nitrous oxide with either spontaneous or controlled ventilation. (Io2-E'o2) followed an asymptotically increasing curve because of decre...
متن کاملThe measurement of gaseous exchange during nitrous oxide anaesthesia.
A method is described for the estimation of carbon dioxide output, oxygen uptake, and respiratory exchange ratio during nitrous oxide anaesthesia. The inspired and expired minute volumes are measured with a box-bag system, the carbon dioxide concentrations with a carbon dioxide sensitive electrode, and the oxygen concentrations with a polarograph. Carbon dioxide output can be measured with a co...
متن کاملIs nitrous oxide necessary for general anaesthesia?
BACKGROUND Nitrous oxide (N2O) has been used for about 150 years in clinical anaesthesia. Several recent reviews of the effect of nitrous oxide have concluded that there are certain contraindications to the use of this gas for general anaesthesia and its ecological effects, ozone depleting potential, immune depression and the proven factor of PONV have questioned the routine use of nitrous oxid...
