Purpose: A survey was undertaken at a single Academic Health Sciences Centre to document the opinions of anesthesiologists regarding what variables are important to document on the anesthetic record. A subsequent chart review of anesthetic records was undertaken to determine the extent to which these anesthesiologists record the variables they consider important.
Methods: A survey form was mailed to all practicing staff anesthesiologists at the four adult McGill University affiliated hospitals.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the impact of arginine-vasopressin (AVP) on long-term potentiation (LTP) in the dentate gyrus of anesthetized rats.
- Administering AVP before tetanization significantly enhanced evoked potentials, with increases observed just one minute after tetanization, peaking at 100% above baseline over two hours.
- Results contrast with previous in vitro findings, highlighting differences in how hormone interactions influence physiological responses in living organisms versus controlled laboratory settings.
