Abstract Ischemia reperfusion injury causes the release of free oxygen radicals. Free radicals initiate production toxic metabolites, such as malondialdehyde (MDA), through lipid peroxidation cellular membranes. Following peroxidation, antioxidant enzyme system is activated against reactive species (ROS) and attempts to protect cells from oxidative damage. There a balance between scavenging capacity enzymes ROS. Because this balance, total (TAC) measurement sensitive indicator overall...

Electrocardiographic and invasive blood pressure monitoring performed, results continuously recorded. The randomized into 2 groups. In group D, pretreated intravenous at a dose 10 Kg/kg (n = 8), whereas S, saline 8). Fifteen minutes later, was infused rate 3 mg/kg per minute until cardiac asystole occurred. timing specific...

In our study we aimed to investigate the effect of esmolol, lidocaine and fentanyl on P-wave dispersion (Pwd), QT corrected (QTc) durations hemodynamic responses endotracheal intubation during propofol induction. A total eighty adult patients, American Society Anesthesiologists (ASA) Physical Status I or II aged 18 60 years were included in this prospective, randomised, double-blind study. All patients had control electrocardiograms (ECGs) done before anesthesia The randomised into four...

We evaluated P wave dispersion (Pwd), QT, corrected QT (QTc), dispersion, and (QTcd) intervals in patients with metabolic syndrome (MetS). Patients scheduled to undergo elective noncardiac surgery were included the study. The main diagnoses, anthropometric measurements, waist circumferences, body mass index, electrocardiograms, serum levels of electrolytes, glucose, lipids recorded for all patients. QTc, QTcd determined Bazett formula. MetS (group M, n = 36) was diagnosed using Adult...

It has been reported that noninvasive, objective tests are needed for determining the success of peripheral nerve blocks because conventional methods necessitate cooperation patient. is also known brachial plexus block causes vasodilatation and an increase in blood flow due to its sympathectomy effect. Our study aimed determine whether Perfusion Index (PI) measured regional hemodynamic changes using ultrasound were reliable parameters evaluating early infraclavicular block.Forty ASA I-III...

Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect education on knowledge, attitude and behavior anesthesiology staff residents towards low‐flow anesthesia. in Department Anesthesia Reanimation, Zonguldak Karaelmas University were given theoretical practical training delivering To their attitudes behaviors toward anesthesia, we collected data during 6 months before training, first 3 after at 4–6 training. follow‐up records, operation time, volatile anesthetic agent used, amount (in...

The aim of our study was to investigate P wave dispersion (Pwd), QT corrected (QTc), (QTd) and (QTcd) intervals in subjects with malnutrition diagnosed the pre-anaesthetic assessment, compared those without malnutrition.
