[Anaesthesia for peripheral angiographies (author's transl)].
The anaesthetic requirements for peripheral angiographies in geriatric or poor risk patients are temporary sedation, analgesia and sufficient immobilisation. Neither general anaesthesia using muscle relaxants and assisted ventilation nor regional methods warrant satisfactory results in all cases, especially if multiple arteriographies are to be performed at the same session. Therefore a few new anaesthetic techniques were studied, having combined benzodiazepines with ultrashort acting intravenous narcotics. Premedication with Pethidin 1mg/kg, the administration of Flunitrazepam 0,017 mg/kg with regard to sedative, analgesic and relaxant effects and Methohexital 0.67 mg/kg as anaesthetic given prior to injection of contrast medium would seem more useful than other techniques.
