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 ...

Volatile anesthetics, not intravenous anesthetic propofol bind to and attenuate the activation of platelet receptor integrin αIIbβ3. [PDF]
In clinical reports, the usage of isoflurane and sevoflurane was associated with more surgical field bleeding in endoscopic sinus surgeries as compared to propofol.

Preconditioning of isoflurane on spinal cord ischemia can increase the number of inducible nitric oxide synthase-expressing motor neurons in rat [PDF]
BackgroundSpinal cord ischemia with resulting paraplegia remains one of the most common complications after repair of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms or dissection.

Neonatal exposure to isoflurane can result in neuroapoptosis and persistent cognitive impairments. However, the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) and its co-activator Cdh1 are E3 ubiquitin ligases that ...

Isoflurane-induced spatial memory impairment in mice is prevented by the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor donepezil. [PDF]
Although many studies have shown that isoflurane exposure impairs spatial memory in aged animals, there are no clinical treatments available to prevent this memory deficit.

Anesthetic and analgesic management of a skunk (Mephitis mephitis) undergoing a laminectomy for cauda equina compression [PDF]
A 6-year-old, male striped skunk (Mephitis mephitis) weighing 5.9 kg was anesthetized for diagnostic imaging procedures and subsequently for a laminectomy at level L6/S1 as treatment of lumbosacral stenosis. On both occasions, anesthesia was induced by a

Isoflurane Preconditioning Promotes the Survival and Migration of Bone Marrow Stromal Cells
Background: Preconditioning with the volatile anesthetic isoflurane exerts protective effects in animal models of ischemia. The cytoprotective effects of isoflurane are dependent on the expression of hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1), a dimeric ...

Effects of Methadone on the Minimum Anesthetic Concentration of Isoflurane, and Its Effects on Heart Rate, Blood Pressure and Ventilation during Isoflurane Anesthesia in Hens (Gallus gallus domesticus). [PDF]
The aim of this study was to measure the temporal effects of intramuscular methadone administration on the minimum anesthetic concentration (MAC) of isoflurane in hens, and to evaluate the effects of the isoflurane-methadone combination on heart rate and

Review of hypoxaemia in the anaesthetized horse: predisposing factors, consequences and management [PDF]
Objectives: To discuss how hypoxaemia might be harmful and why the horse is particularly predisposed to developing it. To review the strategies that are used to manage hypoxaemia in anaesthetised horses, to describe how successful these strategies are
