Ketorolac is Not Nephrotoxic in Connection with Sevoflurane Anesthesia in Patients Undergoing Breast Surgery

Abstract

The different kinetics of N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase indexed to urinary creatinine and serum inorganic fluoride during and after sevoflurane anesthesia suggest that the observed mild renal tubular function deterioration is not caused by inorganic fluoride. Administration of ketorolac IM is therefore considered safe in adequately hydrated healthy adult patients given sevoflurane anesthesia.
