Although QT dispersion increased in patients with CO poisoning, none of ECG's showed ventricular arrhythmia. Increased QTd in the absence of QT interval prolongation may have a lowered arrhythmogenic potential of CO poisoning.
We conclude that during spinal anesthesia even mini-dose intrathecal morphine is not acceptable for outpatient surgery due to side-effects, especially severely prolonged time to urination.
Neither sevoflurane nor halothane caused a significant increase in QTd compared with control values before induction. Only QTd following intubation was significantly greater in the halothane group than the sevoflurane group.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
