Implications: We evaluated the antiemetic efficacy, safety,and routine use of prophylactic ondansetron, a "gold standard"antiemetic, in women undergoing radical breast surgery who wereat a high risk of postoperative vomiting. We analyzed more meaningful"true" and "therapeutic" outcome measures, and we conclude thatprophylactic ondansetron is safe and effective and that itsroutine use is justified.

Implications: The goal of this study was to assess the relationshipbetween preoperative anxiety and intraoperative anesthetic requirements.We found that high baseline anxiety predicts increased intraoperativeanesthetic requirements. We suggest that anesthesiologists shouldmodify the initial induction dose based on the anxiety levelexhibited by the patient.

Implications: The length of postoperative stay among ambulatorysurgical patients is mainly determined by the type of surgeryand by adverse events, such as excessive pain, postoperativenausea and vomiting, dizziness, drowsiness, and untoward cardiovascularevents. Patients with congestive heart failure and those whounderwent long procedures had a higher risk of a prolonged stay.Appropriate prevention and management of postoperative symptomscould significantly decrease the length of stay among patientsreceiving general anesthesia.

CARDIOVASCULAR ANESTHESIA:Back

Stuart M. Lowson, Hassan M. Hassan, and George F. Rich

Anesth Analg 1999 89: 1360. [Abstract] [Full Text] [PDF] [Request Permissions]  

Implications: Nitric oxide affects platelet function. We demonstratedthat nitric oxide delivered into the gas inflow of the cardiopulmonarybypass circuit membrane oxygenator does not significantly alterplatelet numbers or function.

Implications: Cervical plexus blockade for carotid endarterectomycan be effectively performed with a single injection after localizationof the cervical plexus with a nerve stimulator. This techniqueis simple and was associated with less systemic absorption oflocal anesthetic than the multiple-injection technique.

Stefan W. Suttner, Joachim Boldt, Christian C. Schmidt, Swen N. Piper, Peter Schuster, and Bernhard Kumle

Anesth Analg 1999 89: 1371. [Abstract] [Full Text] [PDF] [Request Permissions]  

Implications: We studied gastric mucosal tonometry and the cytosolicliver enzyme {alpha}-glutathione S-transferase to evaluate the effectsof controlled hypotension induced by sodium nitroprusside onsplanchnic perfusion and hepatocellular integrity. Splanchnicperfusion decreased and {alpha}-glutathione S-transferase increasedduring and after a hypotensive period, but returned to baselinevalues within the first postoperative day, indicating a transientimpairment of splanchnic perfusion and hepatocellular integrity.

Anesth Analg 1999 89: 1378. [Abstract] [Full Text] [PDF] [Request Permissions]  

Implications: A sympathetic block in certain segments leadsto increased sympathetic output in unblocked segments. For anupper thoracic epidural block, this might lead to impaired splanchnicperfusion. In awake and propofol-anesthetized, chronically instrumenteddogs, however, a limited upper thoracic epidural blockade hadno compromising effect on gastrointestinal perfusion.

Implications: For total knee replacement, when compared withnormovolemic hemodilution, tranexamic acid administration isassociated with superior perioperative hemodynamic stabilityand allogeneic blood sparing.

Steven M. Brabant, Michèle Bertrand, Daniel Eyraud, Pierre-Louis Darmon, and Pierre Coriat

Anesth Analg 1999 89: 1388. [Abstract] [Full Text] [PDF] [Request Permissions]  

Implications: Hypotensive episodes occur more frequently afteranesthetic induction in patients receiving Angiotensin II receptorsubtype-1 antagonists under anesthesia than with other hypotensivedrugs. They are less responsive to the vasopressors ephedrineand phenylephrine. The use of a vasopressin system agonist waseffective in restoring blood pressure when hypotension was refractoryto conventional therapy.

Anesth Analg 1999 89: 1400. [Abstract] [Full Text] [PDF] [Request Permissions]  

Implications: Blood pressure is controlled partially by themyogenic response. This refers to the capacity of arteries todilate and then constrict in response to pressure increase.Using arteries from rabbits, we have shown that administrationof halothane reduces or abolishes this response. This observationmay be a contributing factor to hypotension caused by halothane.

PEDIATRIC ANESTHESIA:Back

Glyn D. Williams, Thomas K. Jones, Kimberly A. Hanson, and Jeffrey P. Morray

Anesth Analg 1999 89: 1411. [Abstract] [Full Text] [PDF] [Request Permissions]  

Implications: The principal hemodynamic effect of propofol inchildren with congenital heart defects is a decrease in systemicvascular resistance. In children with cardiac shunt, this resultsin a decrease in the ratio of pulmonary to systemic blood flow,and it can lead to arterial desaturation in patients with cyanoticheart disease.

Anesth Analg 1999 89: 1430. [Abstract] [Full Text] [PDF] [Request Permissions]  

Implications: Long-term survival after cardiac arrest may bedetermined by the ability to ensure adequate organ perfusionduring cardiopulmonary resuscitation and in the postresuscitationphase. In this regard, small-dose dopamine improved postresuscitationblood flow to the mesenteric bed when vasopressin was used asan alternative vasopressor in an animal model of cardiac arrest.

NEUROSURGICAL ANESTHESIA:Back

Tomoki Nishiyama, Takashi Matsukawa, Takeshi Yokoyama, and Kazuo Hanaoka

Anesth Analg 1999 89: 1437. [Abstract] [Full Text] [PDF] [Request Permissions]  

Implications: Changes in cerebral blood flow caused by the changesof carbon dioxide tension are greater during the administrationof isoflurane anesthesia compared with sevoflurane anesthesia.Attempts to decrease intracranial pressure by decreasing carbondioxide tension may be more successful during isoflurane thansevoflurane anesthesia administration.

Anesth Analg 1999 89: 1442. [Abstract] [Full Text] [PDF] [Request Permissions]  

Implications: Isoflurane can reduce N-methyl-D-aspartate-mediatedcortical injury in vivo in a dose-dependent manner. These dataare consistent with the previously demonstrated ability of isofluraneto reduce N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor-mediated responses invitro.

OBSTETRIC ANESTHESIA:Back

Implications: Insertion of a needle at the inguinal crease leveland immediately adjacent to the lateral border of the femoralartery results in a high rate of needle-femoral nerve contact.

Hinnerk Wulf, Frank Worthmann, Hagen Behnke, and Arnd S. Böhle

Anesth Analg 1999 89: 1471. [Abstract] [Full Text] [PDF] [Request Permissions]  

Implications: Ropivacaine, a new local anesthetic, proved tobe effective for pain relief after hernia repair in ilioinguinalblocks accompanying general anesthesia. Plasma concentrationspeaked after 30-45 min, and were within safe limits afterapplication of 0.25 mL/kg of 2, 5, or 7.5 mg/mL ropivacaine.

Anesth Analg 1999 89: 1482. [Abstract] [Full Text] [PDF] [Request Permissions]  

Implications: Using a tourniquet on the forearm for IV regionalanesthesia does not increase the risk of drug leakage. Thisis potentially a safer technique compared with conventionalIV regional anesthesia because a much smaller dose of localanesthetic is required.

Toru Goyagi, Makoto Tanaka, and Toshiaki Nishikawa

Anesth Analg 1999 89: 1487. [Abstract] [Full Text] [PDF] [Request Permissions]  

Implications: A small dose of epidural morphine is often usedfor postoperative analgesia. We found that oral clonidine premedication5 {micro}g/kg improves the analgesic efficacy of epidural morphinewithout increasing the incidence of adverse side effects.

Tomoki Nishiyama and Kazuo Hanaoka

Anesth Analg 1999 89: 1492. [Abstract] [Full Text] [PDF] [Request Permissions]  

Implications: A rat model with chronically implanted epiduralcatheters should be used for testing the analgesic effects ofdrugs within two days after catheterization.

Dan J. Kopacz, Nigel E. Sharrock, and Hugh W. Allen

Implications: We demonstrated a significant additive effectof the combination of levobupivacaine (0.125%) and fentanyl(4 {micro}g/mL), compared with either drug alone, when usingpatient-controlled epidural analgesia in patients after totaljoint arthroplasty.

James C. Crews, Allen H. Hord, Donald D. Denson, and Carmen Schatzman

Anesth Analg 1999 89: 1504. [Abstract] [Full Text] [PDF] [Request Permissions]  

Implications: A significant improvement in postoperative analgesicefficacy is demonstrated with the thoracic epidural administrationof the combination of the single-isomer local anesthetic levobupivacaine0.25% and morphine 0.005% in patients after major abdominalsurgical procedures as compared with either drug used alone.

Implications: During topical application of the local anestheticropivacaine in dogs, hypocapnia (PaCO2, 20-25 mm Hg) inducedalmost no additional constriction of spinal arterioles, andthe hypercapnic vasodilation was maintained. These data suggestthat an additional constriction in spinal vessels is unlikelywhen hypocapnia occurs during spinal ropivacaine.

Implications: We investigated the peripheral effects of fentanyland ketamine on capsaicin-induced hyperalgesia and axon-reflexflare. In large concentrations, the opioid diminished axon-reflexflare without effects on secondary hyperalgesia. We found noevidence for the involvement of endogenous glutamate in secondaryhyperalgesia or axon reflex flare.

Scott A. Strassels, Daniel B. Carr, Marcia Meldrum, and Michael J. Cousins

Anesth Analg 1999 89: 1528. [Abstract] [Full Text] [PDF] [Request Permissions]  

Implications: We performed a citation analysis to identify importantcontributions and contributors to the biomedical literature.Recent pain and analgesia research has been focused on mechanismsof pain, but evidence suggests the importance of understandingthe pain experience from the patient's perspective andthe transition from acute to chronic pain.

Implications: Intraperitoneally administered YM872, a new {alpha}-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionicacid receptor antagonist, had analgesic effects on thermal-and formalin-induced pain in rats. Larger doses induced transientmotor disturbance and loss of pinna reflex mediated in the brain.
