European Journal of Anaesthesiology
|July 1, 1986
Summary
Controlled hypotension in otorhinolaryngology is safe when indications are strict and risk factors excluded. This study found a low cerebral morbidity (0.22%) and mortality (0.06%) in 1,802 procedures.
Area of Science:
- Anesthesiology
- Neurosurgery
- Otorhinolaryngology
Background:
- Controlled hypotension is a technique used during surgery to reduce blood loss and improve visibility.
- Its safety in otorhinolaryngological procedures, particularly concerning cerebral complications, requires careful evaluation.
