Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative StudyCarotid endarterectomy: comparing anesthesia in awakened and intubated patients with general anesthesia.
The purpose of this study was to determine utility and efficacy of anesthesia with remifentanil in awakened and intubated patients in comparison with general anesthesia and routine shunting. ⋯ General anesthesia with remifentanil produces an association between the advantage of locoregional anesthesia and those of general anesthesia, probably lowering the risk for the patients.
