Intraoperative awareness: detected by the structured Brice interview?

abstract：BACKGROUND:The effect of alfentanil on intracranial pressure (ICP) in patients with supratentorial cerebral tumors has only been sparsely examined and with somewhat contradictory results. METHODS:Thirty-one patients were anesthetized with propofol and fentanyl. After removal of the bone flap a bolus-dose of alfentanil...
