Journal ArticleDOI
Pathophysiology of hyperkalemia induced by succinylcholine.
TL;DR: Though SCh induces a small release of K+ in normal muscle, it produces a potentially lethal efflux in the presence of increased sensitivity and this K+-releasing action of SCh persists for 2 to 3 months in patients who have sustained burns or trauma, and perhaps 3 to 6 months in Patients with upper motor neuron lesions.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effects of anesthesia and hypothermia on canine cerebral ATP and lactate during anoxia produced by decapitation.
TL;DR: The findings suggest that anesthesia and hypothermia, although they have potentially similar effects on CMRo2, alter cerebral metabolic rate by dissimilar mechanisms, and cannot be expected to provide similar degrees of cerebral protection in the event of anoxia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cerebral protection by thiopental during hypoxia.
TL;DR: The authors suggest that anesthetics such as thiopental diminish energy requirements of the brain only by reducing its function and hence can provide cerebral protection only when the extent of hypoxia is insufficient to abolish function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect on Canine Brain and Whole-body Metabolism
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of ketamine on canine cerebral blood flow and metabolism: modification by prior administration of thiopental.
TL;DR: Test the hypothesis that this unusual cerebral functional response to ketamine may be accompanied by an unusual effect on cerebral metabolism as well, and a relationship between functional and metabolic effects has been established for sodium thiopental.
