Study on peroperative bleeding in ear, nose and throat surgery.
Some interventions in ENT surgery are very difficult or are even impossible if the slightest bleeding occurs. Microsurgery of the ear is the best example. For this reason we choose this particular intervention to test different anesthesia techniques. Bleeding in the surgical field is followed, while simultaneously respiratory, venous and arterial pressure tracings are recorded. These parameters are followed and changes can be attributed directly to observations by microscope of the surgical field. Successively neuroleptanalgesia in its pure form or with help of several drugs (trimetaphan, furosemide, enflurane) is studied. One conclusion can probably be made of the analysis of our series: an anesthesia with "light" analgesia gives better results than an anesthesia protecting completely the patient.
