A 34-year-old male (190 cm/100 kg) was scheduled for surgery of the nasal septum. He had had uneventful anaesthesia for appendicectomy 14 years earlier: following 600 mg thiopentone, 180 mg suxamethonium and up to 2 vol.% halothane for 20 min had been used and no symptoms of malignant
Authors present a case report of 42-year male who spent 14 days in August of 2003 in Egyptian seaside summer town Hurghada and later he was admitted to the Infectious Disease Department Prague with the fever lasting 4 days. His symptoms were as follows: strong headache and dry cough. On the 7th and
The effects of nicardipine, a calcium channel blocking agent, injected into the cerebral ventricles, (i.c.v.), on the body temperature of unanaesthetized cats have been investigated. Nicardipine produced a biphasic effect on body temperature: a transient dose-dependent decline followed by a
Three mule deer and 4 mule deer/white-tailed deer hybrids were immobilized in a crossover study with carfentanil (10 microg/kg) + xylazine (0.3 mg/kg) (CX), and medetomidine (100 microg/kg) + ketamine (2.5 mg/kg) (MK). The deer were maintained in left lateral recumbency for 1 h with each
The first 2000 incidents reported to the Australian Incident Monitoring Study were analysed with respect to the role of the capnograph. One hundred and fifty-seven (8%) were first detected by a capnograph and there were a further 18 (1%) in which capnography was contributory. Of the 1256 incidents
The first 2000 incidents reported to the Australian Incident Monitoring Study were analysed with respect to the role of the pulse oximeter. Of these 184 (9%) were first detected by a pulse oximeter and there were a further 177 (9%) in which desaturation was recorded. Of the 1256 incidents which
OBJECTIVE
To develop, test and refine an 'intervention-based' system for the surveillance of adverse events (AEs) during small animal anaesthesia.
METHODS
Prospective, voluntary reporting audit.
METHODS
A total of 1386 consecutive small animal anaesthetics (including 972 dogs and 387
It is unclear what role pulmonary microcirculatory disorders play in the pathogenesis of adult respiratory distress syndrome. The aim of this study was to establish a rat model for the direct visualization of pulmonary microcirculation by in vivo fluorescence videomicroscopy. The pulmonary terminal
Life-threatening upper respiratory obstruction is an unusual complication of infectious mononucleosis. Although the majority of fatalities result from progressive bulbar paralysis or the Guillain-Barré syndrome, airway impairment primarily occurs as a result of pharyngeal lymphoid hyperplasia and
Anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (anti-NMDAR) encephalitis is a treatable but often misdiagnosed autoimmune encephalitis. Diagnosis depends on NMDAR antibody testing, which may not be readily available. Alternatively, the electroencephalogram (EEG) extreme delta brush pattern may provide a
We herein describe the case of a 48-year-old woman who presented with nonconvulsive status epilepticus refractory to antiepileptic drugs caused by anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis without any tumors. She developed nausea and psychiatric symptoms, followed by fever and an acute
The role of acute arterial hypertension in acute pulmonary edema (APE) as an associated or triggering phenomenon has been poorly investigated and is relevant to patient management.
This was a prospective observational study of clinical, electrocardiographic, and echocardiographic characteristics of
Correct administration in the early postoperative phase is decisive in the final outcome of surgery and the presence of the Recovery Room (RR) contributes significantly to a reduction in the post-operative risk rate. The objectives of the RR are: removal of the pharmacological effect of general
Excessive stimulation of serotonin 5HT1A receptors causes a syndrome of serotonin excess that consists of shivering, muscle rigidity, salivation, confusion, agitation and hyperthermia. The most common cause of this syndrome is an interaction between a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) and a
We report a 28-year-old female with known nemaline myopathy who underwent general anesthesia for osteosynthesis of a femoral neck fracture. Preoperative investigations including blood count, urea, serum electrolytes, prothrombin time, partial thromboplastin time, and electrocardiogram were all
