A double-blind trial of the effect of droperidol on the incidence of nausea and vomiting in patients using patient-controlled analgesia was carried out in 60 healthy women undergoing abdominal hysterectomy. After a standard anaesthetic including droperidol 2.5 mg as a prophylactic antiemetic,
BACKGROUND
In this study, using a dose-ranging design, we examined the effects of clonidine with 0.125% bupivacaine on the duration of post-operative analgesia in caudal anaesthesia in children.
METHODS
We conducted a controlled, prospective study of clonidine in caudal anaesthesia in 60 children,
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate liraglutide as an antidiabetic agent.
METHODS
The pertinent English-language medical literature was reviewed for the period from 1985 to April 2010 with use of data from MEDLINE.
RESULTS
Liraglutide is a glucagonlike peptide-1 receptor analogue that stimulates insulin
Carbapenems are a class of antimicrobials structurally related to penicillin. Doripenem, the newest agent in this class, was recently approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of complicated intra-abdominal infections and complicated urinary tract infections. Its spectrum of
OBJECTIVE
To present an evidence-based evaluation of the antidiabetic drug exenatide.
METHODS
The English literature from 1965 to January 2006 was reviewed by using data sources from MED-LINE, endocrinology textbooks, and manual searching of cross-references from original articles and
Fifteen volunteers underwent intravenous regional anaesthesia on two occasions using 40 ml 0.5% prilocaine, to which had been added either 2 ml 0.9% saline or 0.1 mg fentanyl (resultant concentration 2.5 micrograms/ml). There was no difference in the rate of onset of blockade of cold sensation from
Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting is a challenging issue. Although aprepitant is sometimes used as a therapeutic option in patients receiving moderately emetogenic chemotherapy, the potential benefit of sequential addition of aprepitant to dexamethasone and a 5-hydroxytryptamine-3 (5-HT3)
To investigate whether the addition of epinephrine would enhance postoperative pain relief by intrathecal morphine, we studied 36 patients scheduled to have spinal anesthesia for gynecologic surgery. Patients were randomly allocated to one of three groups: the first received epinephrine 0.12 mg,
Epidural anaesthesia for elective caesarean section can have advantages over general anaesthesia. The anaesthesiologist can avoid endotracheal intubation as well as fetal depression following placental transfer of systemic anaesthetics. However, despite reaching an effective blockade preoperatively,
OBJECTIVE
Postoperative nausea and vomiting after anesthesia is an distressing side effect. This study was undertaken to determine to what extent spinal opioids contribute to postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and secondly to how effectively metoclopramide can reduce the incidence of PONV
Lignocaine has been shown to reduce the incidence of pain on injection of propofol. Metoclopramide, a weak local anaesthetic and commonly used antiemetic, was combined with propofol and the mixture compared, in a prospective, randomized trial, with a lignocaine-propofol combination. The incidence of
BACKGROUND
This prospective double-blind trial evaluated the effect of sufentanil addition to epidural ropivacaine for elective Caesarean section.
METHODS
Sixty healthy parturients were randomly assigned to receive an initial dose of 90 mg of plain ropivacaine, or 90 mg of ropivacaine plus 10 or 20
BACKGROUND
So far only ropivacaine concentrations of 0.5 and 0.75% have been used for Caesarean section. This prospective double-blind trial evaluated the anaesthetic quality of ropivacaine 1% with and without sufentanil addition.
METHODS
Three groups of patients (n=20 each) scheduled for an
It is not known whether dexamethasone increases the effectiveness of anti-emetics when given to treat postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). In a randomised study, 242 patients who were experiencing PONV received dolasetron and placebo, haloperidol and placebo, dolasetron and dexamethasone, or
BACKGROUND
In a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, we investigated the effect of adding meperidine 10 mg to intrathecal bupivacaine on the duration of early postoperative analgesia in 40 patients having elective Caesarean section under spinal
