  1. 21. Clonidine in paediatric anaesthesia : pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic aspects

    Författare :Henrik T G Bergendahl; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Alpha-2 adreoceptor agonists; anaesthesia; analgesia; bioavailability; clonidine; confusion; dose response; epidural; haemodynamics; intubation tracheal; midazolam; neuropeptide Y; paediatric; pharmacokinetic; postoperative; postoperative vomiting; premedication; sedation; shivering; variability.;

    Sammanfattning : Clonidine is a mixed alpha-2/alpha-1 adrenoceptor agonist. It reduces sympathetic and increases parasympathetic tone which results in a lowering of the baseline blood pressure and heart rate. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Intravenous morphine after gynecological surgery : pain relief, endocrine and immune respone

    Författare :Marianne Eriksson-Mjöberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Anaesthesia: general; epidural. Postoperative pain: PCA; morphine; bupivacaine. Hormones: adrenocortical steroids; estrogens. Immune response: Interleukin-6.;

    Sammanfattning : Background: We need more efficient methods to alleviate postoperative pain and reduce endocrine / immune stress response. Subjects and methods: Patient controlled analgesia (PCA) with iv morphine was evaluated with respect to pain relief and endocrine / immune response to surgical trauma in 130 patients undergoing gynecological surgery.

  4. 23. Aspects of foreign-born women's health and childbirth-related outcomes : an epidemiological study of women of childbearing age in Sweden

    Författare :Eva Robertson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Woman; country of birth; self-reported health; longitudinal; non-normal childbirth; nonpharmacological pain relief; epidurallspinal analgesia in childbirth; feminism; ethnicity antiracism;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis aims to study the association between aspects of health and childbirth-related outcomes and country of birth. A theoretical model has been developed from a feministic perspective to reflect foreign-born women's risk of poor health and childbirth-related outcomes in a broader context. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Central-block techniques for reliet of labour pain

    Författare :Susanne Ledin Eriksson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Access to effective pain relief is today a natural part of modem obstetrics. When epidurals for relief of labour pain were introduced during the 1970s, local anaesthetics in high concentrations were used. This caused extensive motor block, affecting propulsive ability during second stage, with increased risk of caesarean and instrumental delivery. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Costs and consequences in perioperative care : analytic models in studies on pain treatment and on haemodynamic optimization of elderly patients

    Författare :Erzsebet Bartha; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Because resources are scarce in health care, costs and consequences of new interventions must be assessed to support informed policy decisions. This thesis analyses the cost-effectiveness of advanced postoperative pain treatment and perioperative haemodynamic optimization by applying decision modelling as an analytic framework. 1. LÄS MER
