Studies of desflurane in outpatient anesthesia.

abstract：BACKGROUND:We implemented a previously described barcode-based drug safety system in all of our anesthetizing locations. Providers were instructed to scan the barcode on syringes using our Anesthesia Information Management System before drug administration, but the rate of provider adherence was low. We studied an impl...

abstract：:Quantitative electroencephalogram (qEEG) monitors are often used to estimate depth of anesthesia and intraoperative recall during general anesthesia. As with any monitor, the processed numerical output is often misleading and has to be interpreted within a clinical context. For the safe clinical use of these monitors,...
