Recovery from anesthesia. Hemodynamic consequences of emergence.
Attempts to attenuate the hemodynamic "emergence response" depend upon the availability and use of "real-time" physiological monitors. Such devices increase our diagnostic acuity and accuracy during this critical and labile period. Future investigation is needed to determine the effects of monitoring on morbidity and mortality, and is likely to lead to the development of guidelines and standards of care for the transport of emerging patients from the operating room to the PACU.
