Predictors of successful neuraxial block: a prospective study.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE:The glutamate-nitric oxide-cyclic guanosine monophosphate pathway has been identified as a potential target for anaesthetic agents. However, mice deficient in neuronal nitric oxide synthase have a similar susceptibility to volatile anaesthetic agents to wild-type mice and are not affected by no...
