  1. 16. A novel drug and device in anesthesia : with focus on breathing and upper airway physiology

    Författare :Åse Lodenius; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Anesthesia-related airway complications are associated with hypoxia due to inability to secure or maintain the airway with subsequent insufficient ventilation and gas exchange. This thesis has explored the impact on airway integrity and respiratory regulation of two anesthetic compounds frequently used for sedation and a novel principle for oxygenation in patients at risk of hypoxia, in order to further improve patient safety during sedation and induction of anesthesia.
