Abstract
A clinically and pharmacologically sound and rational combination of various anesthetics is of increasing interest in scientific and practical activities, as it makes it possible to more effectively achieve targeted therapy within the criteria of quality and safety of anesthesia.
The purpose of the study. To demonstrate the effective use of the inhaled anesthetic xenon and the intravenous sedative dexmedetomidine during plastic surgery.
Material and methods. A clinical case of performing plastic surgery, reduction mammoplasty, lasting 2 hours and 40 minutes under combined anesthesia with the use of inhaled anesthetic xenon and intravenous sedative dexmedetomidine is presented.
Results. The success and adequacy of the anesthesia performed are convincingly proved by the data of intraoperative monitoring, the quality of the patient’s post-acute awakening.
Conclusion. Combined use of inhalation anesthetic xenon and intravenous anesthetic.
