Pre-oxygenation enhances induction with sevoflurane as assessed using bispectral index monitoring.

abstract：BACKGROUND:It has been shown that spinal reflexes such as the H-reflex predict motor responses to painful stimuli better than cortical parameters derived from the EEG. The precise concentration-dependence of H-reflex suppression by anaesthetics, however, is not known. Here we investigated this concentration-response re...
