Abstract

Background and objective: We present an algorithm for discarding cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) components from ventricular fibrillation ECG (VF ECG) signals and establish a method for comparing CPR attenuation on a common dataset. Removing motion artifacts in ECG allows for uninterrupted rhythm analysis and reduces ldquohands-offrdquo time during resuscitation. Methods and results: The current approach assumes a multichannel setting where the information of the corrupted ECG is combined with an additional pressure signal in order to estimate the motion artifacts. The underlying algorithm relies on a localized time--frequency transformation, the Gabor transform, that reveals the perturbation components, which, in turn, can be attenuated. The performance of the method is evaluated on a small set of test signals in the form of error analysis and compared to two well-established CPR removal algorithms that use an adaptive filtering system and a state--space model, respectively. Conclusion: We primarily point out the potential of the algorithm for successful artifact removal; however, on account of the limited set of human VF and animal asystole CPR signals, we refrain from a statistical analysis of the efficiency of CPR attenuation. The results encourage further investigations in both the theoretical and the clinical setup.

Abstract

We present a measurement of semi-inclusive spin asymmetries for positively and negatively charged hadrons from deep inelastic scattering of polarised muons on polarised protons and deuterons in the range $0.003$1 GeV$^2$. Compared to our previous publication on this subject, with the new data the statistical errors have been reduced by nearly a factor of two. From these asymmetries and our inclusive spin asymmetries we determine the polarised quark distributions of valence quarks and non-strange sea quarks at $Q^2$=10 GeV$^2$. The polarised $u$ valence quark distribution, $\Delta u_v(x)$, is positive and the polarisation increases with $x$. The polarised $d$ valence quark distribution, $\Delta d_v(x)$, is negative and the non-strange sea distribution, $\Delta \bar q(x)$, is consistent with zero over the measured range of $x$. We find for the first moments $\int_0^1 \Delta u_v(x) dx = 0.77 \pm 0.10 \pm 0.08$, $\int_0^1 \Delta d_v(x) dx = -0.52 \pm 0.14 \pm 0.09$ and $\int_0^1 \Delta \bar q(x) dx= 0.01 \pm 0.04 \pm 0.03$, where we assumed $\Delta \bar u(x) = \Delta \bar d(x)$. We also determine for the first time the second moments of the valence distributions $\int_0^1 x \Delta q_v(x) dx$., Comment: 17 pages

Abstract

We present a new measurement of the virtual photon proton asymmetry $A_1^{\rm p}$ from deep inelastic scattering of polarized muons on polarized protons in the kinematic range $0.0008 < x < 0.7$ and $0.2 < Q^{2} < 100$ GeV$^{2}$. With this, the statistical uncertainty of our measurement has improved by a factor of $2$ compared to our previous measurements. The spin-dependent structure function $g_{1}^{\rm p}$ is determined for the data with $Q^{2} > 1$ GeV$^{2}$. A perturbative QCD evolution in next-to-leading order is used to determine $g_1^{\rm p}(x)$ at a constant $Q^2$. At $Q^{2} = 10$ GeV$^{2}$ we find, in the measured range, $\int_{0.003}^{0.7} g_{1}^{\rm p}(x){\rm d}x = 0.139 \pm 0.006~({\rm stat})\pm 0.008~({\rm syst)} \pm 0.006~({\rm evol})$. The value of the first moment $\Gamma_{1}^{\rm p} = \int_{0}^{1} g_{1}^{\rm p}(x){\rm d}x$ of $g_{1}^{\rm p}$ depends on the approach used to describe the behaviour of $g_{1}^{\rm p}$ at low $x$. We find that the Ellis-Jaffe sum rule is violated. With our published result for $\Gamma_{1}^{\rm d}$ we confirm the Bjorken sum rule with an accuracy of $\approx 15\%$ at the one standard deviation level.

Abstract

BACKGROUND SZ1677 is a new neuromuscular blocking drug structurally related to rocuronium. We compared the effect of an ED(90) of SZ1677 (25 microg/kg) with that of rocuronium (100 microg/kg) in guinea pig laryngeal and peripheral muscles. METHODS Electromyography was used to quantify neuromuscular blockade at the posterior cricoarytenoid muscle, the thyroarytenoid muscle and the anterior tibial muscle after SZ1677 (n = 10) and rocuronium (n = 9). RESULTS Maximum neuromuscular blockade was similar after SZ1677 and rocuronium (83 +/- 11% vs. 89 +/- 11%; thyroarytenoid muscle: 91 +/- 8% vs. 97 +/- 3%; anterior tibial muscle: 91 +/- 15% vs. 96 +/- 3%, respectively). Onset time of neuromuscular blockade at the laryngeal muscles was similar for the two neuromuscular blocking drugs; it was shorter at the thyroarytenoid muscle (67 +/- 32 s vs. 42 +/- 40 s) than at the posterior cricoarytenoid muscle (101 +/- 26 s vs. 102 +/- 108 s). Onset time at the anterior tibial muscle was longer after SZ1677 (114 +/- 34 s) than after rocuronium (68 +/- 46 s); P < 0.05. Neuromuscular recovery was faster after SZ1677 (interval 25%-75%: posterior cricoarytenoid muscle: 222 +/- 66 s; thyroarytenoid muscle: 192 +/- 92 s; tibial muscle 149 +/- 55 s) than after rocuronium (450 +/- 148 and 464 +/- 183 s, 292 +/- 86 s, respectively); P < 0.05. CONCLUSIONS In guinea pigs, SZ1677 offers a rapid onset of neuromuscular blockade at a laryngeal adductor muscle with a shorter duration than rocuronium. Regardless of the drug used, the course of neuromuscular blockade differs not only between peripheral muscles and the larynx but also between antagonistic laryngeal muscles. The differences seem to be species specific.

Abstract

We have investigated the influence of an azimuthal magnetic field on the stability of Taylor-Couette flow. The stabilization of Couette flow due to the action of the magnetic field has been used to determine the rotational viscosity of the magnetic fluid as a function of the magnetic field strength. The results of the experiments are compared with theoretical calculations on rotational viscosity [1]and on Taylor-Couette flow in magnetic fluids [2]. If the size distribution of the magnetic particles is taken into account, good qualitative agreement is found. Any remaining quantitative discrepancies can be attributed to the interaction between the particles which is neglected in the theories.

Abstract

A muon beam polarimeter was built for the SMC experiment at the CERN SPS, for beam energies of 100 and 190 GeV. The beam polarisation is determined from the asymmetry in the elastic scattering off the polarised electrons of a ferromagnetic target whose magnetisation is periodically reversed. At muon energies of 100 and 190 GeV the measured polarisation is P-mu = -0.80 +/- 0.03 (stat.) +/- 0.02 (syst.) and P-mu = - 0.797 +/- 0.011 (stat.) +/- 0.012 (syst.), respectively. These results agree with measurements of the beam polarisation using a shape analysis of the decay positron energy spectrum. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Abstract

State-of-the-art automated external defibrillators (AEDs) require interruption of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) to analyze the ECG. In order to increase the defibrillation success rate, interruptions of chest compressions should be avoided. Various algorithms are available for reducing CPR artifacts. We recently could show that standard instantaneous ICA algorithms are at least as successful in removing these artifacts from the ECG as second channel methods. Constrained independent component analysis (cICA) is an ICA algorithm which incorporates prior information about the signal, like a second channel. However, to our knowledge, artifact removal from the CPR corrupted ECG has not been tried using cICA. As a new approach to solve the problem of removing CPR induced noise, the use of cICA is evaluated in this paper. Using the corrupted signals as obtained in a porcine model, we tested a cICA algorithm. After applying cICA to corrupted signals with very low SNR (

Abstract

We present the results of the spin asymmetries $A_1$ of the proton and the deuteron in the kinematic region extending down to $x=6\cdot 10^{-5}$ and $Q^2=0.01$ GeV$^2$. The data were taken with a dedicated low $x$ trigger, which required hadron detection in addition to the scattered muon, so as to reduce the background at low $x$. The results complement our previous measurements and the two sets are consistent in the overlap region. No sig\-ni\-fi\-cant spin effects are found in the newly explored region.

Abstract

Arrays of limited streamer tubes of the Iarocci type were deployed in our experiment at CERN as part of a forward muon detector system with provisions for the beam to pass through the center of each panel in the array. A total of 16 4 m x 4 m panels were assembled with inductive readout strips on both sides of each panel. An active feedback system. was deployed to regulate the high voltage to the streamer tubes to insure a constant efficiency for minimum ionizing particles. The arrays were operated in this environment for over five years of data taking. Streamer tube track-reconstruction efficiencies and tube replacement rates are reported.

Abstract

The polarized target of the Spin Muon Collaboration at CERN was used for deep inelastic muon scattering experiments during 1993-1996 with a polarized muon beam to investigate the spin structure of the nucleon. Most of the experiments were carried out with longitudinal target polarization and 190 GeV muons, and some were done with transverse polarization and 100 GeV muons. Protons as well as deuterons were polarized by dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) in three kinds of solid materials - butanol, ammonia, and deuterated butanol - with maximum degrees of polarization of 94%, 91% and 60%, respectively. Considerable attention was paid to the accuracies of the NMR polarization measurements and their analyses, the accuracies achieved were between 2.0% and 3.2%. The SMC target system with two cells of opposite polarizations, each cell 65 cm long and 5 cm in diameter, constitutes the largest polarized target system ever built and facilitates accurate spin asymmetry measurements. The design considerations, construction and performance of the target are reviewed, (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Abstract

We present a next-to-leading order QCD analysis of the presently available data on the spin structure function [Formula Presented] including the final data from the Spin Muon Collaboration. We present results for the first moments of the proton, deuteron, and neutron structure functions, and determine singlet and nonsinglet parton distributions in two factorization schemes. We also test the Bjorken sum rule and find agreement with the theoretical prediction at the level of 10%. © 1998 The American Physical Society.

Abstract

The 1996 data taking of the SMC experiment used polarized protons to measure the spin-dependent structure function g(1) of the proton. Three liters of solid granular ammonia were irradiated at the Bonn electron linac in order to create the paramagnetic radicals which are needed for polarizing the protons. Proton polarizations of +/- (90 +/- 2.5)% were routinely reached. An analysis based on a theoretical line shape for spin-1. systems with large quadrupolar broadening was developed which allowed the nitrogen polarization in the ammonia to be determined with a 10% relative error. The measured quadrupolar coupling constant of N-14 agrees well with earlier extrapolated values. The polarization of the nitrogen nuclei was measured as a function of the proton polarization in order to provide a test of the equal spin temperature (EST) hypothesis. It was found to be closely valid under the dynamic nuclear polarization conditions with which the protons are polarized. Large deviations from EST could be induced by cross relaxing the proton and nitrogen spin systems at low fields. Nitrogen polarizations up to 40% were reached by these means.

Abstract

As a result of the doctor-patient contract the obligation of the treating physician in an Austrian hospital arises to provide written documentation of the perioperative period from the point of view of anaesthesia as part of the patient's chart. This obligation is included in the Austrian hospital legal code for hospital care (Riegler, 1987). Anaesthesia-related documentation starts with the preoperative evaluation. The anaesthesia chart comprises all entries, events, and complications which occur during the perioperative period. Thus the anaesthesia chart is a legal document serving as evidence in case of court action regarding events during or after anaesthesia. Therefore the anaesthesia chart has to provide accurate, complete and legible information (Osswald, 1987). In Austria, all patient records have to be stored for 10 years. Therefore storage of data as well as easy access with the help of central documentation by a computer would be valuable. Also it is useful to provide economic and scientific statistics for studies and clinical investigations (Pollwin et al, 1987). As our old handwritten anaesthesia chart is not very objective and accurate we have attempted to create a new protocol to fulfil our requirements

Abstract

We present a measurement of the longitudinal spin cross section asymmetry for deep-inelastic muon-nucleon interactions with two high transverse momentum hadrons in the final state. Two methods of event classification are used to increase the contribution of the photon-gluon fusion process to above 30%. The most effective one, based on a neural network approach, provides the asymmetries A(p)lN(-->)lhhX=0.030+/-0.057(stat)+/-0.010(syst) and A(d)lN(-->)lhhX=0.070+/-0.076(stat)+/-0.010(syst). From these values we derive an averaged gluon polarization DeltaG/G=-0.20+/-0.28(stat)+/-0.10(syst) at an average fraction of nucleon momentum carried by gluons =0.07.

Abstract

Adequate vocal cord paralysis and full recovery of laryngeal muscle function are important when muscle relaxants are used perioperatively. This study was designed to compare the effects of vecuronium and rocuronium at the vocal cord abductor and adductor muscles and the anterior tibial muscle in cats.Twelve adult cats were studied under pentobarbitone-N2O/O2-anesthesia. After supramaximal electrical stimulation of the peroneal nerve and the recurrent laryngeal nerve (0.1 Hz and intermittent train-of-four) evoked electromyographic responses were obtained from the anterior tibial muscle, the posterior cricoarytenoid muscle (vocal cord abductor) and two vocal cord adductor muscles, the lateral cricoarytenoid and the vocal muscle. Six cats received bolus doses of increasing size of vecuronium (ED90 22.5 microg x kg(-1)) and six cats rocuronium (ED90 90 microg x kg(-1)).Equipotent doses of vecuronium and rocuronium caused a similar degree of paralysis in all muscles (vecuronium ED90: 70% blockade at the posterior cricoarytenoid, 83% at the lateral cricoarytenoid, 84% at the vocal muscle and 90% at the anterior tibial muscle; rocuronium ED90: 71% at the posterior cricoarytenoid, 67% at the lateral cricoarytenoid, 78% at the vocal muscle and 90% at the anterior tibial muscle; vecuronium 2 x ED90: 93% blockade at the posterior cricoarytenoid, 95% at the lateral cricoarytenoid, 97% at the vocal muscle and 99% at the anterior tibial muscle; rocuronium 2 x ED90: 89% blockade at the posterior and lateral cricoarytenoid, 93% at the vocal muscle and 100% at the anterior tibial muscle). Onset time was significantly shorter at the posterior cricoarytenoid muscle (290 s) compared to the lateral cricoarytenoid muscle (400 s) after vecuronium ED90 and to the vocal muscle (150 s versus 210 s) after rocuronium ED90. Compared to the anterior tibial muscle (interval 25-75%: 6.5 min after vecuronium 2 x ED90 and 3.3 min after rocuronium 2 x ED90 and to the posterior cricoarytenoid muscle (interval 25-75%: 7 min after vecuronium 2 x ED90 and 4.3 min after rocuronium 2 x ED90), recovery of laryngeal adductor muscle function was markedly delayed with both neuromuscular blocking drugs (interval 25-75% at the lateral cricoarytenoid and vocal muscle: 14 min and 15.8 min after vecuronium 2 x ED90 and 10.3 min and 11.6 min after rocuronium 2 x ED90 respectively).In cats, the time course of neuromuscular blockade after vecuronium and rocuronium differs in antagonistic laryngeal muscles. The protective laryngeal function of glottis closure recovers later than vocal cord abduction after both vecuronium and rocuronium.

Abstract

The effects of half the tidal volume during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) on haemodynamics, acid-base balance, and oxygenation were studied in anaesthetized pigs. The animals were ventilated with a mean tidal volume of 12.5 +/- 0.5 ml/kg at a rate of 14/minute resulting in a mean arterial pCO2 of 40 +/- 3 mmHg. They were randomly assigned to two groups: in one group ventilation was performed with half the pre-arrest tidal volume (50% group; n = 9), in the other group ventilation remained unchanged during CPR (100% group; n = 10). After 8 minutes of CPR attempts were made to restore spontaneous circulation with epinephrine and countershocks. There were no differences in advanced life support requirements, haemodynamic parameters, and resuscitability between the two groups. During CPR up to 5 minutes after restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) dead space ventilation was significantly higher in the 50% group compared with the 100% group (p0.05). During CPR (at 3 and 7 minutes) arterial pO2 values were significantly lower (218 +/- 136 and 221 +/- 120 mmHg vs. 381 +/- 130 and 352 +/- 147 mmHg; FiO2 1.0) and hyperventilation was less pronounced (34.4 +/- 7.3 and 31.3 +/- 7.7 mmHg vs. 26.2 +/- 5.6 and 26.9 +/- 6.3 mmHg) in the 50% group. Our results suggest that half the tidal volume during CPR is likely to establish a more physiological acid-base balance and has no adverse effects on haemodynamics in intubated pigs ventilated with pure oxygen.

Abstract

Mivacurium has a short duration of action because it is rapidly hydrolysed by plasma cholinesterase. There is ongoing controversy concerning the antagonism of mivacurium-induced neuromuscular block, firstly because of its short spontaneous recovery time, and secondly because the metabolism of mivacurium may be inhibited by anticholinesterases. We therefore compared neostigmine and edrophonium reversal of deep and moderate mivacurium-induced blocks.After approval by the local ethics committee, 48 ASA class I and II adult patients were investigated during nitrous oxide-fentanyl-thiopental anaesthesia using train-of-four (TOF) stimulation and monitoring of the isometric force of adduction of a thumb. The patients received 0.2 mg/kg mivacurium i.v. Neuromuscular transmission was allowed to recover spontaneously in 10 patients (group SP). In 2 other groups the neuromuscular block was antagonised by administration of 0.04 mg/kg neostigmine (group N5; n = 9) or 1.0 mg/kg edrophonium (group E5; n = 10) when T1 had recovered spontaneously to 5% of control. In two other groups the neuromuscular block was antagonised with the same doses of neostigmine or edrophonium in 10 patients (group N25) and 9 patients (group E25), respectively, when T1 had recovered spontaneously to 25% of control.Neostigmine or edrophonium administered when T1 had recovered spontaneously to 25% of control shortened the recovery time (time from administration of ant-agonist to a T4/T1-ratio of 0.7) significantly from 10.7 +/- 2.2 min (mean +/- SD) in the SP group to 5.1 +/- 2.0 and 5.3 +/- 1.5 min in the N25 and E25 groups, respectively (P0.05). The corresponding recovery times in the SP, N5, and E5 groups were 15.9 +/- 2.9, 10.0 +/- 1.9, and 7.7 +/- 2.2 min, respectively. The difference between the SP and E5 groups was significant (P0.05). The recovery indices (time from 25% to 75% recovery of T1) of 3.0 +/- 1.3 and 1.7 +/- 0.9 min for the E5 and E25 groups, respectively, were shorter than those of the SP group at 6.1 +/- 2.0 min (P0.05).Two theoretical reasons, the very rapid onset time and the fact that it does not inhibit plasma cholinesterase, suggest edrophonium to be the preferred antagonist of a mivacurium-induced blockade. These two characteristics are reflected in our results: only edrophonium was able to shorten the recovery index significantly and, administered at a profound level of mivacurium-induced neuromuscular block, only edrophonium was successful in shortening recovery time significantly. Therefore, edrophonium should be the anticholinesterase of choice to antagonise a mivacurium-induced neuromuscular block.

Abstract

Das allgemeine Anliegen um hochstmogliche Patientensicherheit hat zu vermehrtem intraoperativen Einsatz zusatzlicher Uberwachungsgerate, speziell fur O2-Sattigung und Atemgaskonzentrationen, gefuhrt. Die Uberwachung der inspiratorischen O2-Konzentration wahrend der Narkose ist bereits seit etlichen Jahren verpflichtend, jene von CO2 wird nachdrucklichst empfohlen [19, 33] und wird in einigen europaischen Landern bereits als Standard angesehen. Weiter lassen landesspezifische Vorschriften (z. B. in Deutschland die MedGV [25]), rechtliche Uberlegungen [6] und Empfehlungen anasthesiologischer Fachgesellschaften erwarten, das die Uberwachung der Atemgaskonzentration der volatilen Anasthetika in der kunftigen Europanorm fur Anasthesiearbeitsplatze (derzeit in im nationalen Abstimmungsverfahren [37]) verbindlich festgeschrieben sein wird (angemerkt sei, das „internationale Standards“ [19] nicht zur kontinuierlichen Uberwachung der Anasthesiegase verpflichten). Der okologisch und okonomisch begrusenswerte Trend zur „Low-flow“-Technik wird ebenfalls dazu beitragen, das Analysatoren zur fortlaufenden Konzentrationsbestimmung der volatilen Anasthetika immer haufiger am Anasthesiearbeitsplatz anzutreffen sind.

Abstract

Ambient air concentrations of nitrous oxide (N2O) and volatile anesthetics were assessed under routine conditions in a total of 41 surgical suites located at seven Vienna hospitals. Continuous measurements were performed by means of infrared trace gas analyzers throughout a period of approximately 450 h. Additional analyses of ventilation facilities (if installed) revealed no essential deficiencies; however, anesthetic gas scavenging (AGS) systems yielded insufficient flow rates in 32% (less than 25 l/min). In surgical suites without mechanical ventilation or scavenging systems (2 out of 41), maximum occupational threshold limits (i.e., 100 ppm N2O; 5 ppm halothane) were exceeded continuously and to considerable degrees throughout the duration of anesthesia. During measurements conducted in operating rooms (ORs) in otolaryngology departments, extreme peaks (greater than 2600 ppm N2O, greater than 150 ppm halothane) of several minutes duration were documented when open-circuit anesthesia was performed. In the general surgical ORs equipped with modern ventilation facilities ambient air contamination was lowest, time-weighted average (TWA) values ranging from 8 to 15 ppm (mean 11 +/- 3 ppm) for N2O and 0.1 to 0.6 ppm (mean 0.3 +/- 0.2 ppm) for the halogenated anesthetic. Despite good ventilation and scavenging in the gynecological ORs, distinctly higher concentrations (mean 83 +/- 49, range 24-211 ppm N2O; mean 0.75 +/- 0.3, range 0.3 to 1.3 ppm volatile agent) were measured in cases where anesthesia was delivered by mask. TWA values exceeding currently established maximum workplace concentrations were found in an unscavenged but ventilated urological OR. At present, short-term concentration peaks seem to be inevitable even under optimal OR ventilation conditions.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract

Patients undergoing liver transplantation often come to operation with renal function already compromised [2]. These patients are at increased risk of acute renal failure because they experience significant changes in blood volume due to bleeding and third space sequestration, periods of hypotension, inferior vena cava clamping, and nephrotoxic medications, such as cyclosporine.

Abstract

We have used the single-fibre excitability testing method to investigate whether electrical stimulation in midbrain periaqueductal gray or lateral reticular formation, as well as intraspinal iontophoretic application of the suspected inhibitory neurotransmitters serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine), noradrenaline, the opiate morphine, or γ-maminobutyric acid (GABA), exert presynaptic actions at the central terminals of cutaneous afferent unnmyelinated or myelinated fibres. Thresholds to antidromically excited 42 single unmyelinated and 18 myelinated fibres in the sural nerve by intraspinal microstimulation were determined before and during periaqueductal gray or lateral reticular formation stimulation (3 100 ms trainss at 100 Hz; 100–900 μA) or intraspinal iontophoretic application (40–300 nA) of 5-hydroxytryptamine, noradrenaline, morphine or GABA from a multibarrel micropipette. Periaqueductal gray or lateral reticular formation stimulation had mixed effects on unmyelinated and myelinated fibre thresholds, with most threshold measurements within ± 10% of control. There was a tendency for thresholds to increase more during periaqueductal gray than lateral reticular formation stimulation. Thresholds of unmyelinated fibres were predominantly raised during iontophoretic application of 5-hydroxytryptamine (20/29 fibres), noradrenaline (10/13) and morphine (15/21), while GABA had mixed effects; thresholds of nearly all myelinated fibres were raised by each drug. Both periaqueductal gray or lateral reticular formation stimulation and application of 5-hydroxytryptamine, noradrenaline or morphine tended to raise thresholds in the majority of the 53 unmyelinated and myelinated fibres tested. Methodological problems in interpreting the physiological significance of these results for presynaptic modulation are discussed.

45. [Evaluation of the thermal technic for the quantitative measurement of extravascular lung water]

Abstract

To evaluate the accuracy of the method, sequential measurements (n = 159) of extravascular lung water (EVLW) using the thermo-dye double-indicator dilution technique were performed in 22 critically surgical ill patients. Radiographic grading of lung water content served as clinical standard. Normal mean EVLW defined radiographically without evidence of pulmonary edema was 4.8 +/- 1.1 ml/kg. Early interstitial fluid accumulation was quite accurately detected with 6.9 +/- 2.1 ml/kg EVLW (p less than 0.001 vs normal lung water content). The mean EVLW present with definitive interstitial and alveolar edema was 11.5 +/- 3.8 ml/kg and 19.1 +/- 4.5 ml/kg, respectively. Despite some objections to the method (diffusion limitation of the thermal indicator, uneven regional lung perfusion), this technique for measuring EVLW reliably assesses the degree of pulmonary edema. Even when properly performed, chest roentgenograms only confirm gross changes in the lung water content.

Abstract

During endolaryngeal microsurgery, an attempt was made to quantify laryngeal muscle relaxation by electromyographic recording of evoked responses from the vocal cord musculature in 5 patients. Both mechanographic and electromyographic recordings from the adductor pollicis were obtained simultaneously. Following a bolus dose of vecuronium (60 micrograms/kg, n = 3, and 100 micrograms/kg, n = 2), nearly total (97%-100%) suppression of evoked responses at the peripheral muscle site was observed; the vocal cords, however, did not show complete neuromuscular (nm) blockade, but rather varying degrees of nm depression ranging from 61%-92%. The present results clearly show that quantitative information as to duration and degree of neuromuscular depression in the vocal musculature may be obtained by electromyographic recordings of evoked potentials in the clinical setting; it is impossible however, to quantitatively estimate the extent of intrinsic laryngeal muscle relaxation from peripheral nm depression. The pharmacodynamic differences observed might be due to the varying acetylcholine receptor density of the muscle groups studied.

Abstract

Haemodynamic changes following intracoronary injection of two synthetic Met5-enkephalin analogues (FK 33-824 and DALA) with prolonged action as compared with "natural" enkephalines were investigated in anaesthetized dogs (n = 5; dosage; 200, 400, 600 micrograms of both substances i. cor.). DALA led to a shortlasting (5 minutes) rise in heart rate associated with an increase in cardiac output and left ventricular dp/dt max. Besides, a fall in mean arterial blood pressure was noted. No alterations in the pulmonary circulation were encountered. FK 33-824 elicited similar, but unpronounced changes. Direct influences on baroreceptor activity or endogenous release of vasoactive substances as the cause of circulatory effects occuring primarily under DALA were discussed. It is concluded that the cardiovascular effects of synthetic opioids resemble those of morphine and its related compounds.

Abstract

Discharges were recorded from spinal dorsal horn neurons in response to noxious skin heating (50°C) in anesthetized cats. Repetitive electrical stimulation of the superficial peroneal (SP) and posterior tibial (PT) nerves inhibited these nocieptive discharges as well as systemic administration of met-enkephalinamide (synthetic endorphin). The inhibitory effects of electro-stimulation as well as administration of synthetic endorphin were partially but significantly antagonized by naloxone, thus arguing in favor of endogenous morphine release as the basis for the mechanism of acupuncture analgesia. However, non-responding neuronal units to the administration of enkephalin were also observed in the present study. These non-responding units may explain why acupuncture is not effective in some individuals.

Abstract

Die Messung des extravaskularen thermalen Volumens (EVTV) mit der Doppelindikatormethode [1] unter Verwendung von Kalte und Farbstoff ermoglicht eine quantitative Bestimmung des extravaskularen Lungenwassers (EVLW). Tierexperimentell konnte eine sehr gute Korrelation zwischen EVTV und gravimetrisch ermitteltem Lungenwassergehalt nachgewiesen werden [2]. Die bisherigen Erfahrungen lassen diese Methode auch unter klinischen Bedingungen geeignet erscheinen [3].

Abstract

The results of investigations on the reliability of a commericially available test equipment for anaesthetic vaporizers based on the Rotameter principle (s.c. "Tekatest") are reported. In prototype devices scattered differences up to 27% between the results obtained by the Tekatest and those derived from gas chromatography and mass-spectrometry were noted; in a somewhat improved version an unidirectional error of about 24% became evident. Up to now, therefore, this test equipment cannot be recommended for recalibration of vaporizers in clinical use.
