Abstract
Plasma cortisol was determined before, during and after ophthalmological operations in 18 patients. These were performed under electrostimulation anesthesia using adhesive electrodes attached to the dermatome of the site of operation. Plasma cortisol decreased after premedication and induction of anesthesia; it increased continuously during surgery beyond the end of the operation. At 30 min after extubation plasma cortisol decreased again.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
