Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study Clinical Trial[Remifentanil and eye surgery. A randomized, clinical comparison of propofol/remifentanil anesthesia and propofol/fentanyl/alfentanil anesthesia].
The aim of this study was to investigate how many patients, after anesthesia with either propofol/remifentanil or propofol/fentanyl/alfentanil, within 20 minutes from the end of surgery could be transferred directly to the general ward. The number of undesired preoperative incidents, the anesthetists', the surgeons', and the patients' evaluations of the anesthesia were registered. An evaluation of the economic consequences of the two methods was also intended. ⋯ With a propofol/remifentanil-anesthesia, the patients had a predictably short awakening time, so they could be transferred directly to the general ward. This may, especially in ambulatory surgery, mean cost savings and perhaps higher patient satisfaction.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study Clinical Trial[Comparison of two different treatments of lateral humeral epicondylitis--"tennis elbow". A randomized controlled trial].
Many therapeutic interventions have been used in the treatment of lateral epicondylitis (LE), but to date, no specific intervention has proved universally efficacious. The aim of this study was to compare local corticosteroid injections versus splinting in a randomized controlled design. ⋯ We conclude that injections were as effective as splinting in LE. Splinting is recommended in the early stages of the disorder because of its lack of adverse effects. In the long view diagnostics regarding LE have to be refined in order to differentiate patients who are expected to benefit from different treatments.

Randomized Controlled Trial Clinical Trial[Infusion of mivacurium and atracurium guided by manual tactile evaluation].
The aim of this investigation was to compare the use of a continuous infusion of mivacurium or atracurium guided by tactile evaluation of the neuromuscular block. ⋯ A continuous infusion of mivacurium and atracurium can easily be performed, guided by tactile evaluation of the neuromuscular block and the effect can be reversed by neostigmine.
