Xylazine (1.1 mg/kg), butorphanol (0.02 mg/kg), guaifenesin 5% (20 mg/kg), and ketamine (2.2 mg/kg) combinations were able to induce short-term surgical anaesthesia for 23.33 ± 2.57 min in Spiti ponies with excellent to good muscle relaxation and analgesia. Urination and neighing was a constant feature during recovery period. Biphasic P wave, biphasic T wave, and depressed PR segment were commo...

conclusions administration of intravenous ketamine at a dosage of 0.5 mg/kg immediately after anesthesia induction had a preventive effect on shivering intensity without hemodynamic alterations in children undergoing general anesthesia for tonsillectomy. results with regards to the demographic and surgical data, no significant differences between the two study groups were observed (p ≥ 0.05). s...

aim and background:   shivering is a common post anesthesia complication. intravenous methods and materials:   in a rct, 60 adult patients in asa class 1 & 2 scheduled for   c . at the end of the anesthesia, the patients’ shivering was evaluated in the findings:   there was no difference at decrease of spo2 & h.r. & map between 2 groups. there conclusions:   0.2 mg clonidine tablet, 2 hours bef...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa microsoftinternetexplorer4 background : it has been shown that bispectral index (bis) may reduce during spinal anesthesia. the aim of this study was comparing bis scores during spinal anesthesia using hyperbaric bupivacaine alone or with intrathecal or intravenous fentanyl for cesarean section. methods : in this double-blind randomized controlled cl...

thiopental sodium is an ultra short-acting barbiturate. due to its redistribution characteristic, its first injection has a short term effect. in order to elongate its anesthesia duration, more injections are needed. as these additional injections extend the recovery length , weaken respiration and causes other dangerous effects; its repeated use is considered unsafe. citicoline is a natural su...

a bstract background: shivering is a common complication of general and epidural anesthesia. warming methods and many drugs are used for control of shivering in the recovery room. the present study is a randomized clinical trial aimed to investigate the effects of two interventions in comparison with pethidine which is the routine treatment on shivering in patients undergoing abdominal surgery ...

Hypertensive patients in neurosurgery are becoming more common, which increased the risk of surgical stress response. Meanwhile, the relationship between hypertension and anesthesia methods is unclear on the stress response. The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of different anesthesia methods on high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (Hs-CRP), blood glucose, and leucocyte levels in n...

OBJECTIVES To compare the cost-effectiveness of inhalation of sevoflurane, target-controlled infusion (TCI) of propofol, intravenous (IV) propofol for induction-inhalation of sevoflurane, and IV propofol for induction-inhalation of desoflurane for anesthesia maintenance in day surgery. METHODS 240 patients, scheduled for elective day surgery, were randomly divided into 4 groups (n = 60 each):...

conclusions administration of two different doses of intravenous ondansetron, 6 mg and 12 mg, significantly attenuates spinal induced hypotension, bradycardia and shivering compared to the control saline group. however, the hemodynamic profiles and shivering in experimental groups were not statistically different. results demographic data were not statistically different among groups. hr was st...

Total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA) is defined as a technique of general anaesthesia using a combination of agents given solely by the intravenous route and in the absence of inhalational agents. The intravenous route has long and efficiently been used to administer anesthetics drugs, but inhalational anesthesia with modern drugs and machines had revolutionized human anesthesia from the 1960s....
