Reflex Bradycardia in Ophthalmic and Oropharyngeal Surgery

F. A. WALTON M.D.1

1 Royal Columbian Hospital, New Westminster, B.C.

Attention is drawn to the rather common occurrence of bradycardia in children undergoing eye or oro-pharyngeal surgery. This incidence is increased by inadequate atropinization, too much reliance on ether as the main anaesthetic agent, and cardiac or pulmonary disease. Demerol, Flaxedil or Mecostrin have a protective action in this respect.

Note:

Presented at the Western Regional Meeting of the Canadian Anaesthetists' Society, Winnipeg, March 8, 1957.
