Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
The effects of sevoflurane and propofol on cerebral hemodynamics during intracranial tumors surgery under monitoring the depth of anesthesia.
Hemodynamic effects during cerebral tumor resection surgery under monitoring the depth of anesthesia and during recovery in sevoflurane- or propofol-anesthetized patients have not been previously compared. ⋯ At the comparable depth of anesthesia for intracranial tumors surgery and during recovery, sevoflurane had no major effect on cerebral circulation measured by transcranial Doppler sonography as compared with propofol. Our results add to current knowledge on the safety of sevoflurane in neuroanesthesia.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
The influence of dexamethasone and ketolgan on postoperative nausea and vomiting and estimation of risk factors in women undergoing gynecologic laparoscopic surgeries.
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of dexamethasone and ketolgan on postoperative nausea and vomiting and to evaluate risk factors for postoperative nausea and vomiting. ⋯ Preoperative medication with dexamethasone significantly reduces the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting. Avoidance of opioids for postoperative analgesia reduces the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting. Migraine and motion sickness are independent risk factors for postoperative nausea and vomiting.
