Comparison of emergence agitation between sevoflurane/nitrous oxide administration and sevoflurane administration alone in children undergoing adenotonsillectomy with preemptive ketorolac [PDF]
BackgroundSevoflurane anesthesia commonly causes emergence agitation (EA) in children. One previous study has reported that the use of nitrous oxide (N2O) during the washout of sevoflurane may reduce EA by decreasing the residual sevoflurane ...

Mechanisms of the beneficial effect of sevoflurane in liver ischemia/reperfusion injury [PDF]
PURPOSE: To evaluate the underlying mechanisms by which sevoflurane protects the liver against ischemia/reperfusion injury evaluate the mechanism by which sevoflurane exerts this protective effect.

The effects of rapid increases in desflurane and sevoflurane concentrations on spirometry in humans during balanced anesthesia with remifentanil [PDF]
Background: The noble gas helium induces pre- and postconditioning in animals and humans. Volatile anesthetics induce cardioprotection in humans undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery.

EEG signals analysis using multiscale entropy for depth of anesthesia monitoring during surgery through artificial neural networks [PDF]
In order to build a reliable index to monitor the depth of anesthesia (DOA), many algorithms have been proposed in recent years, one of which is sample entropy (SampEn), a commonly used and important tool to measure the regularity of data series. However,

Tau Contributes to Sevoflurane-induced Neurocognitive Impairment in Neonatal Mice
Background: Sevoflurane anesthesia induces Tau phosphorylation and cognitive impairment in neonatal but not in adult mice. This study tested the hypothesis that differences in brain Tau amounts and in the activity of mitochondria–adenosine triphosphate ...

Objective: To investigate the effect of sevoflurane on inflammation of microglia in hippocampus of neonatal rats, and to investigate whether the related mechanism is related to Wnt/β-Catenin/CaMKIV pathway. Methods: Neonatal rats were anesthetized with 2%

Cognitive dysfunction following desflurane versus sevoflurane general anesthesia in elderly patients: a randomized controlled trial. [PDF]
UnlabelledAs life expectancy increases, more patients ≥65 years undergo general anesthesia. Anesthetic agents may contribute to postoperative cognitive dysfunction, and incidence may differ with anesthetic agents or intraoperative anesthesia depth ...

Mitophagy impairment is involved in sevoflurane-induced cognitive dysfunction in aged rats
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is frequently observed in elderly patients following anesthesia, but its pathophysiological mechanisms have not been fully elucidated.
