Description
Jiang Wang and four co-authors test whether a small dose of esketamine before a common sleep drug cuts muscle jerks at anesthesia start. The sleep drug oft triggers jerks that worry teams, though they pass fast. One hundred surgery patients were split by chance to drug or salt water before the sleep drug.
Jerks hit far fewer patients in the drug group, and harsh jerks fell most. Rates in the control group were more than twice as high. Blood flow shifts and side effects stayed mild. A tiny pre dose may thus smooth the start of general anesthesia for many patients.
