Incidence and root cause analysis of wrong-site pain management procedures: a multicenter study.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The surface membrane Ca(2+)-adenosine triphosphatase and Na(+)-Ca(2+) exchanger transport Ca(2+) out of the ventricular myocyte, competing for cytosolic Ca(2+) with the Ca(2+)-adenosine triphosphatase located in the sarcoplasmic reticulum. In this study the authors examined the effects of halothane, isoflura...
