Comparative Analysis of Dexmedetomidine and Propofol Based Sedation Regimens on Anaesthetic Requirements in Cardiac Surgery with On-pump Cardiopulmonary Bypass [PDF]
Introduction: Dexmedetomidine is a selective α2 -agonist that has been successfully used as an anaesthetic adjuvant in cardiac surgery. Aim: To evaluate the effect of dexmedetomidine on intraoperative requirements of isoflurane and opioids for ...

The Minimum Alveolar Concentration of Sevoflurane for Respiratory Depression
Objective: to provide a rationale for a need to introduce the new constant — the minimum alveolar concentration for respiratory depression (MACrespiratory depression) and to determine its value. Subjects and methods.

BACKGROUND: Original sevoflurane (Sevo A) is made with water, while a generic sevoflurane (Sevocris) is produced with propylene glycol as a stabilizing additive.

Background Low frontal alpha power is an electroencephalogram phenotype suggesting vulnerability to anesthetics. This phenotype for a “vulnerable brain” carries risks for burst suppression at lower-than-expected anesthetic concentrations and therefore ...

BACKGROUND: End-stage renal disease (ESRD) has been shown to be associated with abnormal neural function. Clinically used inhaled anesthetic agents typically exert their effect through multiple target receptors in the central nervous system. Pathological

MINIMUM ALVEOLAR CONCENTRATION OF SEVOFLURANE IN CHILDREN
We have determined the minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) value of sevoflurane in 20 children, of both sexes, aged 3-5 yr. MAC was found to be 2.49 (SE 0.08)%, which was greater than that of adults in our previous study. The ratio of MAC values between children and adults is similar to that reported elsewhere for enflurane and isoflurane, but not for

Effects of Volatile Anesthetics on Postoperative Ischemic Stroke Incidence
Background Preclinical studies suggest that volatile anesthetics decrease infarct volume and improve the outcome of ischemic stroke. This study aims to determine their effect during noncardiac surgery on postoperative ischemic stroke incidence.

Background: Minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) has traditionally been used to compare the potency of volatile anesthetics. However, as it reflects the spinal mechanism of immobility rather than the cerebral mechanism of analgesia and hypnosis, it is ...

Minimum alveolar concentration of isoflurane in dogs administered two morphine doses
: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of intramuscular 0.5mg kg-1 (MOR0.5) and 1.0mg kg-1 (MOR1.0) morphine premedication on the minimum alveolar concentration of isoflurane (ISOMAC) in dogs.
