“…In adults, a progressive increase in cortisol levels was also reported during the first six hours after surgery. 8 In the epidural group, a significant decrease in cortisel levels was observed at the end of surgery. This decrease suggests that adequate analgesia was obtained, and that afferent neurogenic impulses from the site of surgery were adequately blocked throughout the surgery.…”

“…Halothane per se induces myocardial depression and ganglionic blockade [14], but there have been reports on endogenic catecholamine release during general anaesthesia and surgical trauma, partly counteracting these effects [8]. Bahlman et al [4] have shown that nitrous oxide plus halothane produce less depression on myocardial function, cardiac output and mean arterial pressure in man, than does halothane alone at the same minimum alveolar concentration (MAC).…”
