Impact of anesthetic agents on cerebrovascular physiology in children.
TLDR
The understanding of the effects of anesthetic agents on the physiology of cerebral vasculature in the pediatric population has significantly increased in the past decade allowing a more rationale decision making in anesthesia management.Abstract:
care to children with neurologic pathologies. The cerebral physiology is influenced by the developmental stage of the child. The understanding of the effects of anesthetic agents on the physiology of cerebral vasculature in the pediatric population has significantly increased in the past decade allowing a more rationale decision making in anesthesia management. Although no single anesthetic technique can be recommended, sound knowledge of the principles of cerebral physiology and anesthetic neuropharmacology will facilitate the care of pediatric neurosurgical patients.read more

Deep Extubation Protocol for Total Intravenous Anesthesia following Ambulatory Elective Dental Surgery in Pediatric Patients: A Pilot Study
TL;DR: The deep extubation criteria and step-wise protocol checklist can be used to guide deep Extubation following TIVA in children undergoing dental surgery, and the success rate and incidence of complications were determined.

Cerebral Oxygenation by Near-Infrared Spectroscopy in Infants Undergoing Thoracoscopic Lung Resection.
Stefania Franzini,Anna Morandi,Francesca Palmisani,Dario Consonni,Francesco Macchini,Edoardo Calderini,Ernesto Leva,Ernesto Leva +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) to investigate the regional cerebral oxygenation (CrSO2) in infants undergoing thoracoscopic lung resection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anaesthesia for ventriculoperitoneal shunts
TL;DR: Hydrocephalus is usually the result of obstruction to cerebrospinal fluid flow, and surgical correction involves draining fluid from the ventricular system to one of three places: peritoneum, atrium, or the pleural cavity.

Age-Related Changes in Cerebral Hemodynamics in Children Undergoing Congenital Cardiac Surgery: A Prospective Observational Study.
Isabelle Gouttevin,Liping Sun,Federmán Rodríguez,Kan Zhang,Hualin Chen,Wei Ji,Yue Huang,Mazhong Zhang,Jijian Zheng +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored age-related cerebral hemodynamic characteristics before and after pediatric cardiac surgery and found that the cerebral hemodynamics of children with CHD significantly changed after cardiac surgery.

Compartmental analysis of compliance and outflow resistance of the cerebrospinal fluid system
TL;DR: The distribution of compliance and outflow resistance between cerebral and spinal compartments was measured in anesthetized, ventilated cats by analysis of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pressure response to changes in CSF volume.

Impaired autoregulation of cerebral blood flow in the distressed newborn infant
TL;DR: Cerebral blood flow was measured, using the 133Xe clearance technique, a few hours after birth in 19 infants with varying degrees of respiratory distress syndrome, showing a linear relationship that was identical in infants with asphyxia at birth and infants with RDS only.

Inhibition of Adrenal Steroidogenesis by the Anesthetic Etomidate
TL;DR: Physicians should be aware that etomidate inhibits adrenal steroidogenesis, and they should consider treating selected patients with corticosteroids if etamidate is used.

Effects of sevoflurane, propofol, and adjunct nitrous oxide on regional cerebral blood flow, oxygen consumption, and blood volume in humans
Kaike K. Kaisti,Jaakko Långsjö,Sargo Aalto,Vesa Oikonen,Hannu Sipilä,Mika Teräs,Susanna Hinkka,Liisa Metsähonkala,Harry Scheinin +8 more
TL;DR: The effects of sevoflurane and propofol as sole anesthetics and in combination with N2O on regional cerebral blood flow, metabolic rate of oxygen (rCMRO2), and blood volume (rCBV) in the living human brain using positron emission tomography are quantified.
