The authors investigated the effect of anesthesia with nitrous oxide and propofol on intraoperative involuntary movement, muscle relaxant usage, postoperative nausea and vomiting, the total amount of propofol used, and recovery time from anesthesia. Eighty-eight patients for gynecological surgery
BACKGROUND
Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) are among the most common complications in operative medicine. Especially patients undergoing middle ear surgery or stapedectomy are frequently suffering from PONV. On the other hand vertigo might be a symptom of an operative complication. For
This case presents a young woman with extrapyramidal reactions after the use of a small dose (0.625 mg) of droperidol. In combination with dexamethason (8 mg) droperidol was given as the patient underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy in order to prevent postoperative nausea and vomiting. The patient
BACKGROUND
Biliary dyskinesia (BD) is a consideration as a cause of chronic abdominal pain in the pediatric population. We sought to correlate the results of cholecystokinin-diisopropyl iminodiacetic acid (CCK-DISIDA) scanning, the basis for diagnosis of BD, with outcome after laparoscopic
BACKGROUND
Rates of cholecystectomy for biliary dyskinesia are rising. Our objective was to identify clinical determinants of symptom improvement in children undergoing cholecystectomy for biliary dyskinesia.
METHODS
This retrospective cohort study included patients undergoing cholecystectomy for
A double-blind cross-over trial of the effects of baclofen and placebo was carried out in 20 female patients suffering from neuroleptic-induced tardive dyskinesia. After 14 days of treatment 15 patients showed improvement of baclofen, whereas none showed improvement on placebo; baclofen was thus
Prochlorperazine is a centrally acting dopamine receptor antagonist that is most commonly used for the treatment of nausea and vomiting. Like many dopamine antagonists, prochlorperazine has the ability to induce extrapyramidal reactions in susceptible patients. Rarely, however, have cases of tardive
Metoclopramide is an antiemetic drug which occasionally produced acute dystonic reactions. Although known to interfere with central dopamine mechanisms, it is frequently used in Parkinson's disease to prevent levodopa-induced nausea and vomiting. In this study metoclopramide did not increase
The treatment of dyskinesia in Parkinson׳s disease remains poor but H3 receptor agonists have been suggested as a novel pharmacological approach. We examined the effects of the H3 agonist, immepip, in 6-OHDA-lesioned rats exhibiting AIMs (abnormal involuntary movements), a rat analogue of
There have been anecdotal reports of episodic involuntary movements in the Border Terrier dog breed for over a decade. Recently, it has been hypothesized that this condition may be a form of paroxysmal dystonic choreoathetosis. The aim of this study was to characterize the Cancer patients commonly receive neuroleptics as antiemetics to relieve nausea and vomiting induced by chemotherapeutic agents. Respiratory dyskinesia, an infrequent, acute, neuroleptic-induced, dystonic reaction, is a potentially life-threatening entity that responds promptly to anticholinergic
The prevalence of vomiting among schizophrenic inpatients was determined over a 6-week period; 8 of 19 patients (42%) experienced at least one episode of vomiting and 3 (16%) experienced 4 episodes. A hypothesis that this may be a dopaminergic supersensitivity phenomenon is proposed, but no
RS 86, a specific muscarinic agonist, was evaluated in a blind, placebo-controlled, single-dose trial in 10 psychiatric patients with stable tardive dyskinesia (TD). RS 86, 0.5-4 mg orally, produced no significant effects in TD, although 4 mg caused a minimal aggravation in parkinsonism. Side
Emesis is a common symptom in pheochromocytoma. It occurs in 26% of cases with permanent secretion, and 43% of cases with paroxystic secretion. Emesis may be the initial manifestation as in the present report of a 54-year-old female patient. For more than 15 years she experienced emesis which was
