The Growth of Microorganisms in Propofol and Mixtures of Propofol and Lidocaine

Survey of Anesthesiology, 1999
Propofol emulsion supports bacterial growth. Extrinsic contamination of propofol has been implicated as an etiological event in postsurgical infections. When added to propofol, local anesthetics (e.g., lidocaine) alleviate the pain associated with injecting it. Because local anesthetics have antimicrobial activity, we determined whether lidocaine would

Rapid and Simple Dispersive Liquid–Liquid Microextraction (DLLME) Sample Preparation for Propofol Analysis in Hair, Blood, and Urine by Gas Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
Development and validation of an extraction method based on dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction for the analysis by GC–MS of propofol in three different biological samples (blood, urine, and hair). The proposed method is very simple and rapid.

Propofol withdrawal seizures (or not) [PDF]

Seizure, 2008
Propofol is associated with abnormal motor events resembling seizures, the exact nature of these events remains to be elucidated. We describe here a case of seizure-like activity after propofol-induced conscious sedation accompanied by a prolactin rise, together suggesting that the event was ictal.

Practical management of repeated life‐threatening status epilepticus in Alternating Hemiplegia of Childhood: Case report and literature review

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Alternating Hemiplegia of Childhood (AHC) is a severe channelopathy that manifests before 18 months of age, primarily caused by pathogenic variants in the ATP1A3 gene. It is characterized by recurrent and disabling episodes of plegia, dystonia, dysautonomia, along with chronic neurological features and cardiac arrhythmias. About 50%

Status non‐epilepticus

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Status non‐epilepticus is characterized by recurrent or prolonged psychogenic non‐epileptic seizures (PNES), which are often mistaken for status epilepticus (SE). This study focuses on the misdiagnosis of convulsive SE in patients whose seizures were of psychogenic origin.

Research progress on the depth of anesthesia monitoring based on the electroencephalogram

Ibrain, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 32-43, Spring 2025.
Electroencephalogram (EEG) can noninvasive, continuous, and real‐time monitor the state of brain electrical activity, and the monitoring of EEG can reflect changes in the depth of anesthesia (DOA). The development of artificial intelligence can enable anesthesiologists to extract, analyze, and quantify DOA from complex EEG data.

Postoperative pain after MiniLap percutaneous versus standard laparoscopic salpingo‐oophorectomy: A propensity‐matched study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The aim of this study was to compare postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing standard laparoscopic salpingo‐oophorectomy versus those using the MiniLap percutaneous surgical system, aiming to demonstrate the non‐inferiority of this ultra‐minimally invasive surgical technique compared to the current gold standard.

5‐HT3 receptor antagonists for preventing postoperative nausea and vomiting after gynecological surgery: A systematic review and network meta‐analysis

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Gynecological surgery is generally associated with a high risk of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), for which a combination of antiemetic therapies is advised, but adherence to these protocols is often low. Given the current reality, a preferred 5‐HT3 receptor antagonist for preventing PONV as a result of gynecological ...

Sensitivity to propofol in the elderly [PDF]

Anaesthesia, 1986
SummaryTwo studies were carried out on 609 fit, unpremedicated patients to assess the influence of patient age on the response to the rapidly‐acting hindered phenol, propofol, which is being evaluated for induction of anaesthesia. In the first study, 1.25 mg/kg was injected over 20 seconds followed by 10‐mg increments every 15 seconds until loss of ...
