Effects of battery type and age on performance of rechargeable laryngoscopes.

abstract：PURPOSE:We previously confirmed the effectiveness of dexmedetomidine (DEX) for stabilizing hemodynamics as well as sparing anesthetics during anesthetic induction in patients undergoing cardiac surgery (Kunisawa et al. in J Clin Anesth 21:194-199, 1). In this study, we investigated whether these effects of DEX continue...
