BACKGROUND
Intravenous droperidol has strong evidence for antiemetic efficacy in high risk patients for prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). However it is not clear whether continuous epidural administration of doroperidol prevent PONV. It has been reported that epidural
The alpha-adrenergic agonists have been demonstrated to have synergistic effects with opioids and local anesthetics in animal research. The present study was performed to determine whether the addition of adrenaline improves the analgesic effects of an epidural infusion of a combination of fentanyl
The effects of extradural sufentanil 50 micrograms were investigated in 10 normal volunteers. Eight of these were studied at a second session when adrenaline 1:200,000 was added to the sufentanil. Well-defined segmental analgesia developed rapidly after plain sufentanil and lasted approximately 3 h.
In this report, we present the symptoms, biochemical investigations, 24 hour ambulatory blood pressure and heart rate recordings in a patient before and following removal of a predominantly adrenaline-secreting phaeochromocytoma. The symptoms were of episodic shaking, faintness, nausea,
BACKGROUND
The risk/benefit ratio of adding fentanyl, adrenaline and clonidine to epidural local anaesthetics for improving intraoperative analgesia is unclear. This meta-analysis was performed to clarify this issue.
METHODS
Trials retrieved by search were considered if they were prospective,
Seven male volunteers were given apomorphine (14-20 micrograms/kg) subcutaneously on a total of ten occasions. Nausea was experienced on six occasions and on four occasions there was no effect. Venous samples were taken before injection, at peak nausea and 20 min later for assay of factor VIII
The relation between pretreatment night-time urinary catecholamine excretion and chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting was studied. The first cohort included 17 women and three men with various cancer forms receiving low or moderately emetogenic chemotherapy. The second cohort included 42 women
Background
Short-term pain relief can be achieved by local anaesthetic infiltration of port sites at the end of laparoscopic surgery. This study aimed to assess feasibility of performing an RCT to evaluate short-term postoperative analgesia after laparoscopic surgery in Nigeria
We have investigated the addition of adrenaline to pethidine for patient-controlled epidural analgesia after elective Caesarean section. In a randomised, double-blind study, patients received patient-controlled epidural analgesia for 24 h using pethidine 5 mg.ml-1 with adrenaline 5 micrograms.ml-1
The aim of the study was to assess the efficacy and safety of patent controlled analgesia (PCEA) combining opioid-local anesthetic mixture and adrenaline administered after thoracotomy and laparotomy. 164 adult patients after major thoracic and abdominal surgery were enrolled in prospective
We aimed to assess the effects of levobupivacaine and of levobupivacaine + adrenaline administered during pediatric tonsillectomy on the postoperative period.
A total of 90 patients between the ages of five and twelve were divided randomly into two groups before tonsillectomy: levobupivacaine only
The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy of a mandibular nerve block to placebo, in patients undergoing mandibular osteotomy surgery, regarding opioid consumption and adverse opioid induced side effects. Forty healthy individuals with a mean age of 19.7 years participated in the study.
A 61-year-old woman who presented with diabetes, nausea, weight loss and sweating was found to have a phaeochromocytoma secreting adrenaline, with a small amount of N-methyladrenaline. There was no significant increase in noradrenaline secretion. She was normotensive, and developed profound
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the efficacy of lidocaine with adrenaline on post-operative morbidity in pediatric patients after tonsillectomy.
METHODS
A double blind prospective randomized controlled clinical study.
METHODS
The study is consisting of two groups of pediatric patients following tonsillectomy
A clinical study was conducted to investigate the relationship between nausea/emesis after chemotherapy for lung cancer (docetaxel 60 mg/m(2), cisplatin 80 mg/m(2)) and blood serotonin (S), blood catecholamine (adrenaline) (A), noradrenaline (NA) and dopamine (D) in effective and non-effective
