Use of BIS monitor during anaesthesia of a narcoleptic patient for avoiding possible delayed emergence.
    Acta anaesthesiologica Belgica, 2007, Volume: 58, Issue:1

    Anaesthesia for a narcoleptic patient is not a common practice of anaesthesioligists' daily working life. Therefore special problems related to narcolepsy should be considered pre-, peroperatively and during emergence. The aim of presenting this case report is to emphasize the importance of BIS monitor use in a narcoleptic patient undergoing surgery under general anaesthesia to avoid possible prolonged emergence.

General anesthesia in a patient on long-term amphetamine therapy: is there cause for concern?
    Anesthesia and analgesia, 2000, Volume: 91, Issue:3

    Amphetamines are powerful, sympathomimetic amines that, when used chronically, can profoundly effect a patient's cardiovascular stability during anesthesia and surgery. Amphetamines are the third most widely abused class of drugs in the United States. They also have legitimate medical use for attention deficit disorder with hyperactivity, exogenous obesity, and narcolepsy. We report a case of a patient with a 40-yr history of chronic amphetamine use having undergone two general anesthesias without complication.
