Does sevoflurane cause more postoperative agitation in children than does halothane?
Early postanesthetic agitation and recovery was faster after mask anesthesia with sevoflurane than after halothane. There was a higher incidence of agitation in younger children, without correlation to pain.
Conventional diagnostic methods for CDG are hindered by the novel transferrin E592A. Neuraminidase treatment followed by IEF and ESI-TOF MS can identify the mutation. The mutation appears to be functionally normal.
