Effects of surgical stress and nitrous oxide anaesthesia on peri-operative plasma levels of total homocysteine. A randomised, controlled study in general surgery.

abstract：:A relationship between cardiac output and the onset time of neuromuscular blockade administered into a peripheral vein was evaluated in 41 adult patients. Anaesthesia was induced with midazolam and fentanyl and maintained with intermittent doses of fentanyl and 66% nitrous oxide in oxygen. After immobilisation of the ...
