Abstract
Propofol has been used to facilitate tracheal intubation within a short time of sevoflurane induction without a muscle relaxant in children. We compared as the primary outcome the incidence of excellent intubating conditions after 8% sevoflurane and propofol 1 or 2 mg/kg.

Abstract
Subarachnoid anaesthesia has been demonstrated to be safe and effective in elderly patients. Isobaric Ropivacaine 0.5% has been recently introduced for subarachnoid anaesthesia: aim of our trial is to compare this drug with 0.5 Levobupivacaine in elderly patients scheduled for endoscopic urological s...

Abstract
Results from previous studies have shown favorable effects from the addition of buprenorphine to local anesthetics used for interscalene or axillary perivascular brachial plexus blocks. The main objective of the current study was to determine whether addition of buprenorphine could enhance bupivacai...

Abstract
The use of propofol often results in pain upon injection. Various strategies can be used to reduce this pain, ranging from the administration of analgesics to modification of the propofol emulsion. However, basic premedication protocol aimed at peri- and postoperative pain reduction could also suffi...

Abstract
Among the 164 children analyzed, 96 patients (58.5%) were male. The average age was 14.3 (sd = 1.65). The incidence of pain in the control group was 32.1% (26/81), compared to 25.3% (21/83) in the treatment group. The logistic regression analysis showed that there was not sufficient evidence that th...

Abstract
A muscle relaxant is either suxamethonium (curacit) or one of many curare compounds. One of the curare drugs was brought to Europe from South America in the 1700 s and the active substance (called d-tubocurarine) was isolated in 1935. This type of drug paralyses striated muscles that are under volun...

Abstract
We administered sugammadex to a patient with myasthenia gravis to reverse a rocuronium-induced profound NMB. NMBDs predispose such patients to severe postoperative residual paralysis and respiratory complications. Sugammadex binds steroidal NMBDs and, therefore reverses a rocuronium or vecuronium-in...

Abstract
Cough in the first 10 minutes was recorded in 53.6% of patients in the desflurane group and in 2.4% in the sevoflurane group (P < .05). Between-group differences were also evident at the end of surgery (desflurane group, 24%; sevoflurane group, 9.7%; P< .05). CONCLUSION: The patients who inhaled des...
