Is systolic blood pressure , not BIS , associated with movement during laryngoscopy and intubation?
Systolic pressure elevations were associated with inadequate anesthesia as evaluated by the "isolated forearm" technique, during laryngoscopy/intubation. BIS values were not different between groups, suggesting that systolic blood pressure may be a better predictor of inadequate anesthesia under the circumstances described.
IFS causes important changes in the micturition physiology in rats, and the inhibition of the isoenzyme COX-2 could be an important event that could prevent the detrimental effects elicited by IFS-induced hemorrhagic cystitis.
