Comparison of topical lignocaine gel and fentanyl for perioperative analgesia in children undergoing cataract surgery.

28 Dec 2009 BACKGROUND: Opioids continue to remain the primary analgesics in children undergoing ophthalmic surgery, and their use may be associated with adverse effects like vomiting and respiratory depression. Topical anesthesia avoids these adverse effects ... Read more...

Ropivacaine spinal anesthesia is not antagonized by ondansetron pretreatment.

30 Oct 2009 BACKGROUND: We investigated a possible effect of ondansetron on the duration of sensory and motor block produced by ropivacaine. METHODS: Fifty male patients undergoing transurethral surgery received either 8 mg oral ondansetron the evening before ... Read more...

When drugs disappear from the patient: elimination of intravenous medication by hemodiafiltration.

30 Oct 2009 Twenty-three hours after heart transplantation, life-threatening acute right heart failure was diagnosed in a patient requiring continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration (CVVHDF). Increasing doses of catecholamines, sedatives, and muscle relaxants ... Read more...
