SSI, PPGA, HR, NIBP, RE, and RE-SE detect autonomic responses to nociceptive stimuli in anaesthetized children undergoing strabismus surgery.

Cochlear implantation under local anesthesia and sedation was found to be feasible. The modified suprameatal approach lends itself for procedures under local anesthesia, because only minimal drilling is required. The application of this technique provides a safe alternative especially for the elderly with significant comorbidity and increased risks for general anesthesia.
