Evaluation of changes in anesthetic methods for cesarean delivery: an analysis for 5 years using the big data of the Korean Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service [PDF]
Background As an anesthesia induced during cesarean section, spinal anesthesia is preferred over general and epidural anesthesia. This study aimed to review the trend of anesthetic methods for cesarean section based on data obtained from the Korean ...

Mechanisms of General Anesthesia [PDF]
Although general anesthetics are often said to be nonspecific agents, it is likely that they act at a much more restricted set of target sites than commonly believed. The traditional view has been that the primary targets are lipid portions of nerve membranes, but recent evidence shows that the effects on lipid bilayers of clinically relevant levels of

Propofol Anesthesia Impairs the Maturation and Survival of Adult-born Hippocampal Neurons [PDF]
BACKGROUND:: Adult neurogenesis occurs in the hippocampus of most mammals, including humans, and plays an important role in hippocampal-dependent learning. This process is highly regulated by neuronal activity and might therefore be vulnerable to

Delayed gastric emptying induced by glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists and its implications for perioperative risk during anesthesia [PDF]
Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) are increasingly prescribed for managing type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity because of their glucose-lowering, weight-reducing, and cardiovascular benefits. However, their potential to delay gastric

The First Derivative of the Electroencephalogram Facilitates Tracking of Electroencephalographic Alpha Band Activity During General Anesthesia. [PDF]
BACKGROUND Intraoperative neuromonitoring can help to navigate anesthesia. Pronounced alpha oscillations in the frontal electroencephalogram (EEG) appear to predict favorable perioperative neurocognitive outcomes and may also provide a measure of ...

Sleep and general anesthesia [PDF]
The mechanisms through which general anesthetics cause reversible loss of consciousness are characterized poorly. In this review, we examine the evidence that anesthetic-induced loss of consciousness may be caused by actions on the neuronal pathways that produce natural sleep.It is clear that many general anesthetics produce effects in the brain ...
