Understanding the Effects of General Anesthetics on Cortical Network Activity Using Ex Vivo Preparations.

open access: yesAnesthesiology, 2019
General anesthetics have been used to ablate consciousness during surgery for more than 150 yr. Despite significant advances in our understanding of their molecular-level pharmacologic effects, comparatively little is known about how anesthetics alter ...

Inhaled Anesthetics: Environmental Role, Occupational Risk, and Clinical Use

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Medicine, 2021
Inhaled anesthetics have been in clinical use for over 150 years and are still commonly used in daily practice. The initial view of inhaled anesthetics as indispensable for general anesthesia has evolved during the years and, currently, its general use ...

A mini-review of the effects of inhalational and intravenous anesthetics on oxidative stress in dogs

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022
General anesthesia increases the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which can exacerbate or increase oxidative stress and thus affect the prognosis of surgical procedures.

General anesthetics

open access: yes, 2021
General anesthetics are administered to approximately 50 million patients each year in the United States. Anesthetic vapors and gases are also widely used in dentists’ offices, veterinary clinics, and laboratories for animal research. All the volatile anesthetics that are currently used are halogenated compounds destructive to the ozone layer.

Long-term effects of neonatal single or multiple isoflurane exposures on spatial memory in rats

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2013
General anesthetics are neurotoxic to neonatal rodents and nonhuman primates. Neonatal exposure to general anesthetics has been associated with long-term cognitive deficits in animal models. Some data from humans are consistent with long-term deleterious
