CONCLUSIONS
Propofol is often used in patients with asthma, but it can induce bronchospasm. We report a patient with sick house syndrome (nonspecific complaints of mucosal irritation, headache, nausea, and chest symptoms) who suffered bronchospasm. This case suggests that propofol is not always a
A pharmacokinetic method of establishing individualized doses of aminophylline in patients with acute bronchospasm was evaluated. Patients admitted to a hospital who required intravenous aminophylline for bronchodilation were studied. Blood samples were drawn before treatment for
Adenosine with its rapid onset and brief duration of action has a number of clinical applications including treatment of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia and maximal coronary vasodilatation during pharmacologic stress testing. The adverse effects of adenosine include dyspnea, nausea,
We experienced a case of bronchospasm during upper gastrointestinal endoscopy under sedation. An 80-year-old man came to our hospital with abdominal distension with pain, nausea and vomiting. He has the history of splenectomy, cholecystectomy for hemolytic anemia and thyroidectomy for thyroid
We aimed to evaluate the effect of a single dose of preoperative dexamethasone on postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), a frequent complication and a major cause of delayed recovery in pediatric upper gastrointestinal endoscopy (UGIE) under sedation.In Eighty patients were given either intravenous Hexabrix 320 or Niopam 300 for urography, and any bronchospastic effect was assessed by measurement of forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1). No significant difference between pre- and post-injection FEV1 was shown with either contrast medium. Minor
OBJECTIVE
To examine the safety and efficacy of aerosolized pentamidine (AP) as alternative primary prophylaxis against Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP) in adult liver and kidney transplant recipients.
METHODS
Retrospective review of medical records.
METHODS
Tertiary care urban teaching hospital
OBJECTIVE
To explore our experience of anesthetic management for pediatric congenital laryngomalacia operation.
METHODS
A total of 27 pediatric patients with congenital laryngomalacia were treated at our hospital between December 2010 and November 2012. All patients were anesthetized by intravenous
The aim of this study was to introduce a continuous monitoring of side effects related to sedation-analgesia in the field. A document was completed by physicians on board the ambulances for all prehospital interventions and checked daily by the medical staff. A total of 3605 interventions were
BACKGROUND
Despite literature pertaining to algorithms of care, operating room charges and other financial management issues in medicine, there is a paucity of data pertaining to the fiscal consequences of bronchoscopic practice.
OBJECTIVE
To identify hospital charges directly attributable to
Our institution used an experimental protocol for the use of inhaled amphotericin B as a prophylactic measure to prevent fungal disease in severely immunocompromised patients. We did a prospective study of the physiologic effects of amphotericin B administration. We looked specifically at oxygen
BACKGROUND
Bovine seroalbumin is known as an allergen for human beings, but reactions to it in an artificial insemination procedure are much rarer. We report a case of anaphylaxis after intrauterine insemination (IUI) in which sensitization to bovine serum albumin (BSA) is
The anti-CD25 immunotoxin (IT), RFT5-SMPT-dgA, was used in a phase I dose escalation trial in patients with refractory Hodgkin's lymphoma. The IT was constructed by linking the monoclonal antibody RFT5 via a sterically hindered disulfide linker to deglycosylated ricin-A. All patients in this trial
A multicenter study was performed to determine the incidence of adverse reactions to two contrast media with similar low osmolality during cardiac angiography. The study was of a randomized double-blind design comparing ioxaglate (an ionic dimer) and iopamidol (a nonionic compound) and included 500
