title: Monitored anesthesia care and loco-regional anesthesia. Vascular surgery use.
abstract: Association of locoregional techniques such as deep and superficial cervical block, lumbar epidural and/or peripheral blocks, and conscious sedation with hypnotic drugs (propofol 1-3 mg/kg/h or midazolam 2-4 mg/h) and/or opiates drugs (sufentanil 5-10 mcg or remifentanil 0.05-0.1 mcg/kg/min) is actually, the gold standard for vascular surgery. Our personal experience is based on 328 patients submitted to carotid endarterectomy, aneurysm repair and peripheral surgery.
