Total intravenous anaesthesia for military surgery. A technique using ketamine, midazolam and vecuronium.

abstract：:After carotid endarterectomy under general anaesthesia, the rapid elimination of desflurane and sevoflurane may allow earlier postoperative neurological assessment than after the use of isoflurane. However, desflurane may be associated with tachycardia and hypertension and may therefore increase cardiovascular risk. W...
