ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the median effective plasma target concentration of propo-fol (Cp50 )needed for lumbar surgery during inhalation-intravenous balanced anesthesia when BIS is 50.Methods Patients aged 40-56 years,scheduled for vertebral pulp ectomy were included.Anesthe-sia were maintained by TCI of propofol,sevoflurane 0.5 MAC,remifentanyl 0.2 μg·kg-1 ·min-1 , and vecuronium 0.08 mg·kg-1 ·h-1 .The target plasma concentration of propofol was initially set at 1.8 μg/ml,and adjusted by the sequential up-and-down methods,based on BIS index.The Cp50 of propofol and its 95% confidence interval (CI)were calculated.Results Twenty-six patients were en-rolled in this study.The median effective plasma target concentration of propofol was 1.61 μg/ml (95%CI 1.52-1.70)μg/ml.Conclusion The Cp50 of propofol needed for maintaining the BIS index of 50 is 1.61 μg/ml during the anesthesia with 0.5 MAC of sevoflurane combined with remifentanyl in lumbar surgery.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effect of intravenous lidocaine on postoperative pain and acute rehabilitation after laparoscopic hysterectomy.Methods Ninety-six patients scheduled for lapa-roscopic hysterectomy under general anesthesia were randomized into 2 groups (n = 48 ).In test group,lidocaine 1.5 mg/kg was administered at induction,then with a continously infusing rate of 2 mg·kg-1 ·h-1 until the end of surgery.In control group,saline was instead.Record the resting and coughing pain scores at 6,12,24 and 48 h after surgery,morphine consumption during the first 48 h, time to first flatus,6 min walk test (6MWT)result,and side effects such as dizzy,nausea and vomi-ting.Results Resting VAS scores at 6,12 and 24 h postoperatively were lower in test group than in control group (P <0.05).Coughing VAS scores in test group were lower than in control group at all time points (P <0.05).The morphine consumption was lower in test group than in control group (P<0.05).Time to first flatus was earlier in test group than in control group (P <0.05 ).6MWT at day 4 and 5 were significantly enhanced in test group (P <0.05 ).Conclusion Intravenous lidocaine can reduce postoperative pain scores and morphine consumption,as well as improve early rehabilita-tion after laparoscopic hysterectomy.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of electroacupuncture (EA) of different intensities on cerebral energy metabolism in a rat model of global cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) . Methods Forty male SD rats weighing 200-230 g were randomized into 5 groups ( n = 8 each) : group A sham operation; group B global cerebral I/R and C, D, E groups cerebral I/R+ 5, 3, 1 mA EA. Global cerebral I/R was induced by 4-vessel occlusion technique. Bilateral vertebral arteries were permanently occluded by cauterization.Bilateral common carotid arteries were clamped. When the bilateral pupils were completely dilated, the arteries were unclamped. Baihui,Mingmen and Zusanli were electrically stimulated with 5,3,1 mA (30-50 Hz) for 20 min at 1 h of reperfusion in C, D, E groups. The EA was repeated at 12 h of reperfusion. The animals were sacrificed at 24 h of reperfusion.The activities of Na+ -K+ -ATPase, succinodehydrogenase (SDH) and lactic dehydrogenase(LDH) in brain tissue were measured.Results Cerebral I/R significantly increased LDH activity and decreased Na+ -K+ -ATPase activity in group B as compared with group A. EA with 5 mA significantly decreased LDH activity and increased SDH and Na+ -K+ -ATPase activities in group C compared with group B. Conclusion EA can improve the cerebral energy metabolism in a rat model of global cerebral I/R and it is related to the intensity, which may be the mechanism by which EA reduces the global cerebral I/R injury.
ABSTRACT
@#ObjectiveThe research is that pulse magnetic acupuncture in scalp point affects the nerve function and endothelin-1(ET-1)capacity of acute cerebral ischemia rat. Methods70 rats were divided randomly into seven groups: normal, artificial operation, model, static magnetic acupuncture, normal acupuncture, electric acupuncture and pulse magnetic acupuncture, every group had 10 rats and the nerve function and plasma ET-1 capacity of rats were examined.ResultsStatic acupuncture, electric acupuncture, pulse magnetic acupuncture and normal acupuncture can improve the nerve function and decrease the capacity of ET-1, but pulse magnetic acupuncture and normal acupuncture improve obviously.Conclusions Pulse magnetic acupuncture and normal acupuncture have the same effect to improve the nerve function and decrease the capacity of ET-1.
ABSTRACT
The harm of SARS(severe acute respiratory syndrome) in 2003 is remarkable.Through analyzing the influencing factors of the infectious diseases in late 30 years,we find that the biological factors and social circumstance closely related the infectious diseases.The author suggests that we should build a general hygiene concept which aimed to improve social environment,and make effective public hygiene system the measure to prevent and control the infectious diseases.
