ABSTRACT Background Day surgery has become the main mode of surgery in American and European countries, but it is still in the early stage in developing countries due to the limitation of medical technology and the backward management concept. At present, day surgery accounts for more than 60% of elective surgery in many countries in Europe and North ...

Washout and Awakening Times after Inhaled Sedation of Critically Ill Patients: Desflurane Versus Isoflurane [PDF]
In recent years, inhaled sedation has been increasingly used in the intensive care unit (ICU). The aim of this prospective, controlled trial was to compare washout and awakening times after long term sedation with desflurane and isoflurane both ...

Abstract The ex‐utero intrapartum treatment (EXIT) procedure is a specialized delivery strategy that extends utero–placental–fetal circulation to convert a potential neonatal emergency condition into a condition that is compatible with postnatal life. Cesarean section with operation on placental support is an EXIT technique that requires a relatively ...

The effect of desflurane on neuronal communication at a central synapse [PDF]
Although general anesthetics are thought to modify critical neuronal functions, their impact on neuronal communication has been poorly examined. We have investigated the effect induced by desflurane, a clinically used general anesthetic, on information ...

Spontaneous shutoff of desflurane vaporizer [PDF]
To the Editor: We would like to report the intraoperative failure of a desflurane vaporizer. The incident occurred as a 57-yearold man underwent parathyroid surgery. After induction and intubation, anesthesia was maintained with 5 % inhaled desflurane, using a Tec 6 Plus vaporizer (GE Healthcare Japan Co., Tokyo, Japan), via a semiclosed circuit with a

Summary Introduction Retrospective studies suggest that inhalational volatile anaesthetic agents may contribute to an increased risk of metastasis and reduction in survival rates when used during cancer surgery. This relationship may vary between cancer types due to different tumour biology and differences in surgical procedures.
