Anaesthesia suitable for prolonged bronchoscopic examination.
A technique of combined general and topical anaesthesia is described involving spontaneous ventilation. Patients aged 46 to 76 were examined in this way for periods varying between 5 and 25 minutes. Carbon dioxide elimination was satisfactory in all but 2 of 18 patients, and these 2 are discussed in detail. Capillary oxygen tension was maintained at a level of over 75 mm. Hg throughout all 11 e...
متن کاملTimely bronchoscopic examination for a patient with hemoptysis.
A 61-year-old man was referred to our hospital due to hemoptysis. The patient told us that the amount of it needed two pieces of towels to wipe it off. It began a few days ago and continued intermittently. The patient had no medical history of respiratory disease and did not have any anticoagulants. He smoked 30-pack-year. Ground glass opacity was observed in both lungs, but it seemed to be sli...
متن کاملUptake of isoflurane during prolonged clinical anaesthesia.
Recent evidence has suggested that the rate of uptake of inhalational anaesthetic is constant during maintenance of anaesthesia, contrary to the predictions of multi-compartment uptake models. We measured isoflurane uptake using a totally closed anaesthetic system during up to 10 h of stable anaesthesia for maxillo-facial surgery on 12 adult patients. Liquid isoflurane was injected into the sys...
متن کاملGlucose intolerance during prolonged sevoflurane anaesthesia.
PURPOSE The effects of prolonged sevoflurane anaesthesia on insulin sensitivity were investigated by two successive intravenous glucose tolerance tests (IVGTT) in eight patients who underwent prolonged surgery. METHODS The first IVGTT was administered (25 g glucose as 20% dextrose in water iv) over two minutes 35 min after initiation of surgery. Arterial blood samples were obtained at 0, 5, 1...
متن کاملA Device for Mechanical Ventilation Suitable for Newborn and Infants during Anaesthesia.
The need for mechanical ventilation during anaesthesia in the newborn and in infants has been strongly felt recently (Rees, 1958; Smith, 1959; Okemian, 1963). Very few ventilators suitable for paediatric anaesthesia are available (e.g. Bennett and Bird), and all are enormously expensive. The Engstrom ventilator has been successfully used for paediatric anaesthesia. The Starling pump, designed o...
