BACKGROUND
Regurgitation, vomiting and aspiration may occur unexpectedly in association with anaesthesia. "Aspiration/regurgitation" was ranked fifth in a large collection of previously reported incidents that arose during general anaesthesia. These problems are encountered by all practising
A 67-year-old woman was admitted to the hospital due to progressive mental changes, nausea and vomiting after a dose increase of an intrathecal morphine pump. We found severe hypercalcaemia due to milk alkali syndrome (MAS). Her symptoms resolved quickly after normalisation of hypercalcaemia.
Intoxication following ingestion of the popular garden shrub 'Yesterday, today, tomorrow' (Brunfelsia sp.) is known to result in gastrointestinal and central nervous system clinical signs in dogs.A 2-year-old dog developed acute-onset vomiting, profuse A patient with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) developed metabolic alkalosis and alkalemia from protracted vomiting. As a result of the absence of the alkali excretory capacity in this patient with ESRD, the alkaline load accumulated rapidly. Once the amount of acid lost from vomiting exceeded the
BACKGROUND
Neuroblastoma (NB), Hirschsprung disease (HSCR), Congenital Central Hypoventilation Syndrome (CCHS), clinically referred as the NB-HSCR-CCHS cluster, are genetic disorders linked to mutations in the PHOX2B gene on chromosome 4p12.

The specific aim of this project is to define
Adequate analgesia and sedation with adequate respiratory and hemodynamic control are needed during brain surgery in awake patients. In this study, a protocol using clonidine premedication, intraoperative propofol, remifentanil, and labetalol was evaluated prospectively in 25 patients (aged 50 +/-
OBJECTIVE
Deep intravenous sedation plus local anesthesia for anorectal surgery in the prone position is used frequently at our institution, but is not widely accepted because of concerns regarding airway management. The purpose of this study was to prospectively evaluate the safety and efficacy of
A 45-year-old man who was admitted with nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain was found to have severe metabolic alkalosis, with a PaCO2 of 11.4kPa (85.5 mm Hg), PaO2 of 5.8 kPa (43.5 mm Hg), pH of 7.61, and plasma bicarbonate concentration of 82.0 mmol/l. He was treated with oxygen, intravenous
In this study we tested the hypothesis that the initial cuff volume of the laryngeal mask airway influences emergence characteristics and postoperative laryngopharyngeal morbidity. One hundred and sixty adult patients undergoing minor surgery were randomly assigned for airway management with the
The term Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy describes a pattern of physical abuse in which a perpetrator produces or fabricates illness in a victim. Victims are almost always children. We alternatively call this behaviour medical child abuse. Our report describes five recent cases. Two presented with
A 29-year-old woman, addicted to heroin since the age of 15 years, presented with a 4-day history of acute inspiratory chest pain, dyspnoea and vomiting associated with hypoventilation. She died 3 h after admission to the intensive care unit in spite of active resuscitative measures. The main
Mepyramine-theophylline-acetate (MTA), a theophylline derivative combined with an antihistamine, is used to treat patients with asthma. A double-blind, randomized, prospective, parallel-group study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of MTA in the treatment of asthmatic crisis in
Comparison of TD-fentanyl with sustained-release morphine in the pain treatment of patients with lung cancer
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this randomized and controlled trial was to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of trans-dermal fentanyl (TDF) and sustained-release oral morphine (SRM) primarily and their
BACKGROUND
Temporary anaesthesia or analgosedation used for awake craniotomies carry substantial risks like hemodynamic instabilities, airway obstruction, hypoventilation, nausea and vomiting, agitation, and interference with test performances. We tested the actual need for sedatives and opioids in
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to discover the optimal effect-site concentration of remifentanil for cough prevention that does not delay awakening or cause respiratory depression during emergence from anesthesia with propofol and remifentanil in laryngomicrosurgery
