Maxillary nerve block: A comparison between the greater palatine canal and high tuberosity approaches. [PDF]
Aim: Analgesia and anxiolysis during dental procedures are important for dental care and patient compliance. This study aims to compare two classical maxillary nerve block (MNB) techniques: the greater palatine canal (GPC) and the high tuberosity (HT ...

Protocol for electrophysiological monitoring of carotid endarterectomies. [PDF]
Near zero stroke rates can be achieved in carotid endarterectomy (CEA) surgery with selective shunting and electrophysiological neuromonitoring. though false negative rates as high as 40% have been reported.

Lipid Emulsion Therapy as Treatment for Local Anesthetic Systemic Toxicity [PDF]
Local anesthetic systemic toxicity, due to misapplication of local anesthetic in an otherwise routine procedure, can result in deleterious effects. Although improved regional anesthesia techniques, effective test-dosing, and availability of less toxic ...

Liquid general anesthetics lower critical temperatures in plasma membrane vesicles [PDF]
A large and diverse array of small hydrophobic molecules induce general anesthesia. Their efficacy as anesthetics has been shown to correlate both with their affinity for a hydrophobic environment and with their potency in inhibiting certain ligand gated ion channels.

Inhalational or total intravenous anaesthesia: is total intravenous anaesthesia useful and are there economic benefits? [PDF]
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The comparison of inhalational and intravenous anaesthesia has been the subject of many controlled trials and meta-analyses. These reported diverse endpoints typically including measures of the speed and quality of induction of ...

Slow Waves Analysis Pipeline for extracting the Features of the Bi-Modality from the Cerebral Cortex of Anesthetized Mice [PDF]
Cortical slow oscillations are an emergent property of the cortical network, a hallmark of low complexity brain states like sleep, and represent a default activity pattern. Here, we present a methodological approach for quantifying the spatial and temporal properties of this emergent activity.
