Baby EAR circuit is a new modified enclosed afferent reservoir anesthetic breathing system invented to use in pediatric patients. By following His Majesty the King of Thailand's self-sufficiency philosophy, the circuit is simplymade of low-cost and easy-to-find materials in the operating room. ⋯ Baby EAR circuit can be made economically and used safelyfor general anesthesia with spontaneous breathing in pediatric patients who weighed 5-20 kg at optimal fresh gas flow rate of > or = 2.5 LPM

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study Clinical Trial
Bispectral index-controlled postoperative sedation in cardiac surgery patients: a comparative trial between closed loop and manual administration of propofol.
Postoperative cardiac surgery patients are usually sedated according to clinical sedation scores. Electrophysiological data derived from electroencephalography, such as the bispectral index (BIS), have been reported to assess and quantify the level of sedation, although experience in these patients is limited. In the current study, we evaluated a closed-loop system - closed-loop anaesthesia delivery system (CLADS) - for postoperative sedation after open heart surgery using BIS. ⋯ Closed-loop delivery of propofol to control BIS for postoperative sedation is feasible and efficient after cardiac surgery.
