propofol

What's wild about propofol is that lost time does not mean you were unconscious the whole time.

Michael Jackson would probably still be alive if a machine had been used to help monitor his propofol!

It looks like propofol is pretty commonly used for colonoscopy sedation in the United States, not without controversy.

Its primary outcome is a modest reduction in propofol and fentanyl dose under a very specific anaesthetic protocol.

In smaller doses, anesthetics like propofol will leave you groggy but semi-awake and able to respond to commands.

Its half-life is substantially longer than that of propofol, so it actually takes longer to recover from.

For my second surgery, the anaesthesiologist pushed the fentanyl before the propofol, and told me he was doing so.

They should market Ramones' branded propofol for everyone that wants to be sedated.

Hell, I was still high as a kite after the propofol wore off when I got home.

We mostly use propofol/remifent for maintenance of anaesthesia, and there is (some) reasonable evidence that this leads to less emergence delirium than sevoflurane.

The paper mentions it being about total IV anaesthesia with propofol, so it should be generalizable to all surgeries with the same anesthetic conditions.

Benzodiazepines = memory loss Propofol = we turned your brain off Nothing stops us from using both, where strategically appropriate.

Honestly I couldn't really feel much difference when I was given the mix - I've been under general anesthesia before, and the second you get propofol you instantly from normal to "drunk".

Propofol feels like time had an entire section removed with before and after spliced directly together.
