Inhalation anesthetics inhibit the release of endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor in the rabbit carotid artery.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Synergistic antinociception of opioids and local anesthetics has been established in bolus injections but not in long-term use. The somatic and visceral antinociceptive effects of intrathecally infused morphine or lidocaine were characterized, and the nature of the interaction of those agents in rats was eva...
