Patients suffering from Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and dementia with Lewy bodies can be treated well with the cholinesterase inhibitors rivastigmine or donepezil, and because of the increasing number of these patients undergoing surgery in general anaesthesia we find it urgent to draw attention to possible complications such as severe bradycardia or third-degree heart block when propofol and remifentanil are being used.
