[Prevention of pressor reaction to tracheal intubation in patients with cerebral aneurysms: fentanyl and nitroglycerin combination].

: The authors analyze the clinical efficacy of a combined method for the prevention of pressor reaction to laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation, based on the combination of common clinical doses of fentanyl (4 micrograms/kg b. m.) and intravenous infusion of nitroglycerin solution in 26 patients with brain vessel aneurysms. This method effectively prevented the dangerous rise of arterial pressure during laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation.
