apnea and Amnesia

apnea has been researched along with Amnesia in 6 studies

Apnea: A transient absence of spontaneous respiration.

Amnesia: Pathologic partial or complete loss of the ability to recall past experiences (AMNESIA, RETROGRADE) or to form new memories (AMNESIA, ANTEROGRADE). This condition may be of organic or psychologic origin. Organic forms of amnesia are usually associated with dysfunction of the DIENCEPHALON or HIPPOCAMPUS. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, pp426-7)

" Low-dose intravenous ketamine as the primary anesthetic following premedication with fentanyl and midazolam, and in conjunction with nitrous oxide, appeared to produce less hypoxia, hypercarbia, and apnea than when methohexital was used."5.07A double-blind comparison of low-dose intravenous ketamine and methohexital in adults. ( Anderson, JA; Blankstein, KC, 1991)
"Diazepam failed to produce amnesia in about 33% of the patients."2.64Anaesthesia for cardioversion: a comparison of diazepam, thiopentone and propanidid. ( Orko, R, 1976)
