BACKGROUND
The purpose of this study was to investigate effect of cerebral oxygen saturation (SCTO2) on postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in female patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery.
METHODS
This study included 90 female patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery (60 cases of
Adequate bowel preparation is one of the most important factors related to the yield of colonoscopy. Lowquality bowel preparation has been associated with lower adenoma detection rates and increased healthcare expenses. Bowel preparation is a major impediment to undergo colonoscopy BACKGROUND
Colonoscopy is currently the gold standard method to examine the colon, the rectum and the terminal ileum. In order to perform the colonoscopy, it is necessary to clean the bowel and use medications that are generally poorly tolerated by the patients.
OBJECTIVE
Compare the tolerability,
Hydroelectrolytic changes, the time of action and complications induced by oral administration of 10 per cent mannitol solution in the colonic preparation for X-ray examination were examined. Twenty-six patients were examined using two different solution volumes: one liter in 15 patients and two
Palonosetron hydrochloride is a longer-acting, selective 5-HT3 receptor antagonist that has been approved for the prevention of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting ad is being evaluated for the prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting. The objective of this study was to evaluate the
The purpose of this study was to assess the sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in pediatric patients with clinical suspicion of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) by comparing MRI and ultrasound (US) to endoscopy, the gold standard. A median volume of
Three preparations, two based on magnesium citrate and one an optimised oral mannitol regime, have been compared for their effectiveness in clearing the large bowel prior to double-contrast barium enema and for effects on barium mucosal coating. If excellent clearance alone is taken as the criterion
BACKGROUND
The cleansing of the colon for a colonoscopy exam must be complete so as to allow the visualization and inspection of the intestinal lumen. The ideal cleansing agent should be easily administered, have a low cost, and minimum collateral effects. Sodium picosulfate together with the
OBJECTIVE
Improvement of pelvic MRI using peroral administration of an aqueous mannitol solution.
METHODS
We retrospectively evaluated magnetic resonance examinations of 72 patients with suspected or proven pelvic abnormalities: In 36 patients, no bowel marking was carried out. In further 36
BACKGROUND
Ciguatera fish poisoning arises primarily from consumption of carnivorous reef fish caught in tropical and sub-tropical waters. Ciguatoxins, a class of tasteless, heat-stable, polycyclic toxins produced by dinoflagellates, accumulate through the food chain and concentrate in various
BACKGROUND
Inhaled mannitol is a new bronchial provocation test (BPT) developed to improve portability and standardisation of osmotic challenge testing. Osmotic challenge tests have an advantage over the traditional methods of measuring airway hyperresponsiveness using methacholine as they
Irrigating fluids consisting of 5% mannitol, 3% mannitol + 1% ethanol, 2.2% glycine and 1.5% glycine + 1% ethanol in water were given by intravenous infusion to seven healthy volunteers at a constant rate of 50 ml./min. over 20 min. The irrigants containing glycine produced hyperkalemia and usually
OBJECTIVE
We studied which irrigating fluid, glycine 1.5% or mannitol 3%, is associated with the most favorable adverse effects profile when absorbed by the patient during transurethral resection of the prostate.
METHODS
Irrigating fluid bags containing mannitol 3% or glycine 1.5%, both with added
Mannitol is an osmotic diuretic used in acute oliguric renal failure, acute cerebral edema, and acute glaucoma. It is metabolically inert and is excreted through the kidneys. So once renal function is impaired, mannitol accumulates and the movement of water into the intravascular space with
Forty-six patients with refractory solid malignancies received the new platinum complex [2,2-bis(aminomethyl)-1,3-propanediol-N-N'] [1,1-cyclobutanedicarboxylato] [(2-)0,0')] platinum (zeniplatin). Zeniplatin was given, without hydration or mannitol, as a 60- to 90-min i.v. infusion every 3 weeks at
