Pregabalin and dexamethasone improves post-operative pain treatment after tonsillectomy.

abstract：BACKGROUND:In Finland, approximately 40% of emergency medical service (EMS) missions do not result in transport of the patient to a hospital by ambulance, and there is wide variability in the reasons underlying non-transport decisions. The aim of this study was to describe the context of these EMS non-transport mission...

abstract：BACKGROUND:Gas exchange is regularly impaired during general anaesthesia with mechanical ventilation. A major cause of this disorder appears to be atelectasis and consequently pulmonary shunt. After re-expansion, atelectasis reappears very slowly if 30% oxygen in nitrogen is used, but much faster if 100% oxygen is used...
