Background and objective Dexamethasone given to prevent postoperative nausea vomiting may produce significant hyperglycaemia in the perioperative period. The effect of dexamethasone on patients with impaired glucose tolerance is unknown. Methods Thirty obese undergoing laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery were studied a double-blind fashion. Patients randomly distributed into two groups: group (n = 15) received 8 mg intravenously after induction anaesthesia; control isotonic saline....

The first order plasma-effect-site equilibration rate constant (k(e0)) links the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of a given drug. For calculation k(e0), one method uses single point response curve corresponding to time peak effect drug (t(peak)); however, it has not been validated. This study compares k(e0) calculated with t(peak) traditional non-parametric parametric methods.Fifteen adult patients receiving total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA) were studied. All monitored an...
