General Anesthetic Techniques in Ruminants

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 1996
Sedation, anesthesia, protection of the airway during general anesthesia, and control of pain in the perioperative period are important considerations in the management of sheep, goats, and cattle. Though ruminants are classically considered farm animals and are often intended for the production of food and fiber, these species are used extensively in ...

Antagonism of general anesthetics

International Congress Series, 2005
Abstract Despite many research efforts on the mechanisms of anesthesia, there have been no reports on the anesthesia antagonists. It is well recognized that the dose–response curves of anesthetics are extremely steep. Availability of anesthesia antagonists would benefit anesthesia practice at emergency situations when the anesthesia becomes ...

General anesthetic allergy testing

Current Allergy and Asthma Reports, 2008
Anaphylaxis in the setting of general anesthesia is a rare but potentially lethal event. The investigation of severe reactions is important for confirming the clinical diagnosis and identifying likely causative agents and safe agents that may be used in the future. Many comprehensive reports have described the testing protocol of individual specialized

General anesthetics and the developing brain

Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2009
General anesthetics and sedatives are used in millions of children every year to facilitate surgical procedures, imaging studies, and sedation in operating rooms, radiology suites, emergency departments, and ICUs. Mounting evidence from animal studies suggests that prolonged exposure to these compounds may induce widespread neuronal cell death and ...

General and Local Anesthetics

2019
Anesthetising the older surgical patient present its own unique challenges. Heterogeneity is the most consistent feature of this age group and preoperative assessment and optimisation must take into account the varying comorbidities, extent of physiological ageing, frailty and the size of surgery which will determine patient outcome. Breast surgery can

Clinical pharmacology of general anesthetics

Clinical Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 1967
The past decade has seen great interest in the clinical pharmacology of general anesthetics. Recently introduced drugs, such as halothane or methoxyflurane, have already been studied in more detail than ether or nitrous oxide had been during the first century of their clinical use.

Immunomodulatory Effects of General Anesthetics

2007
Postoperative patients are prone to develop infectious complications, and the phenomenon of immunoparalysis, defined as a diminished capacity of immunocompetent cells to respond to infectious agents, has been implicated as a major contributing factor. When inflammatory postoperative disorders are already established, intervention is difficult. However,

Presynaptic Actions of General Anesthetics

2003
Early in the 20th century, Sowton and Sherrington identified the synapse as a likely target of general anesthetic action (1). Brooks and Eccles (2) and Bremer and Bonnet (3) later demonstrated depression of synaptic transmission in the central nervous system (CNS), by concentrations of general anesthetics that did not affect axonal conduction.
