Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study[Influence of neostigmine on the course of neuromuscular blockade with rocuronium or cisatracurium: a randomized, double-blind trial].
To compare the time-course of neuromuscular blockade with rocuronium or cisatracurium during intravenous anesthesia, in terms of both the time to spontaneous recovery or time to reversal after administration of neostigmine. ⋯ Not antagonizing a rocuronium- or cisatracurium-induced neuromuscular blockade in surgical procedures lasting less than 90 minutes can lead to a high percentaje of residual blockade (TOF ratio <80%).

Randomized Controlled Trial[Intrathecal fentanyl reduces the dose of propofol required for sedation during spinal anesthesia].
To assess the effects of 2 dosages of intrathecal fentanyl on the requirement for propofol infused intravenously for the sedation of patients under spinal anesthesia. ⋯ Adding 15 or 25 microg of fentanyl to hyperbaric bupivacaine lowers the dose of intravenous propofol required for sedation of patients under spinal anesthesia.
