Method of preventing pathological levels of factor VIII before, during and/or after a surgical procedure by controlling psychic and somatic stress
First Claim
1. A method of decreasing Factor VIII elevation in blood by controlling psychic and somatic surgical stress, said method comprising the steps of:
- a. controlling the psychic stress in the organism by administering to the organism at least one compound selected from the group consisting of a Sevoflurance, an anesthetic inhalation agent, and an intravenous hypnotic drug;
b. controlling the somatic stress by administering to the organism at least one compound selected from the group consisting of an opioid and lidocaine;
c. maintaining a normal body temperature of the organism;
d. minimizing a non-surgical stress stimuli; and
e. allowing a mild hypercarbia to support a respiratory drive in the presence of an opioid dosage to offset a respiratory effect of the opioid and encourage cardiac output, wherein elevation of Factor VIII is decreased.

Abstract
A method of providing general anesthesia to an organism that improves surgical outcome by controlling a psychic and a somatic surgical stress before, during, and after a surgical procedure by preventing a pathological elevation of Factor VIII in the blood of the organism, comprising the steps of controlling the psychic stress in the organism by administering to the organism an anesthetic or hypnotic agent; controlling the somatic stress by administering to the organism an opioid and/or lidocaine; maintaining a normal body temperature of the organism; minimizing a non-surgical stress stimuli; and allowing a mild hypercarbia to support a respiratory drive in the presence of an opioid dosage. The method may further comprise the step of giving additional doses of an opioid as necessary to prevent sympathetic nervous system activation.
