Mechanisms of Anesthetic Action in Skeletal, Cardiac, and Smooth Muscle
The volatile anesthetics continue to be one of the most mysterious yet commonly used class of drugs in medical practice today. A prominent and troublesome side effect of volatile anesthetics is their ability to alter hemodynamics. This arises from two diverse but interrelated phenomena, depression o...
