Does cOMPARISON OF INTRAOPERATIVE KETAMINE VS. FENTANYL USE decrease POSTOPERATIVE OPIOID REQUIREMENTS IN TRAUMA PATIENTS UNDERGOING CERVICAL SPINE SURGERY?
Ketamine use during cervical spine surgery decreased opioid requirements in both the recovery room and in the first 6 hours postoperatively. This may have the potential to minimize opioid induced respiratory depression in a population at increased risk of airway complications related to the surgical procedure.
5-LO expression by HNE was regulated at the transcriptional level by the EGFR-mediated activation of Sp1/p38 MAPK and NF-κB/ERK pathways in macrophages, which may lead to the development of therapeutic interventions for regulating 5-LO expression in atherosclerosis.
