متن کاملAnaesthetic monitoring: clinical practice in anaesthetic rooms and theatres.
Twenty anaesthetic rooms and operating theatres in Northern Ireland were visited in both 1990 and 1992. Data was collected on the availability and use of anaesthetic monitoring. In the anaesthetic rooms there were few pulse oximeters. In the theatres more monitors were available and in use. Some change in practice had occurred between 1990 and 1992, notably an increase in the monitoring of vent...
متن کاملDetermination of anaesthetic agent concentration by refractometry.
Reference refractivity values have been derived for the anaesthetic agents halothane, isoflurane, enflurane, sevoflurane and desflurane which are traceable to national measurement standards. A simple method and equation have been derived for the application of these data to the measurement of agent concentration by refractometry. The main instrumental sources of uncertainty associated with this...
متن کاملPlain bupivacaine: an unpredictable spinal anaesthetic agent.
Plain bupivacaine 0.5% or 0.75% was injected intrathecally in four groups of 10 patients. Group A received 0.75% bupivacaine 2.7 ml at L3/4, group B 0.5% bupivacaine 4 ml at L3/4, group C 0.75% bupivacaine 2.7 ml at L2/3 and group D 0.75% bupivacaine 2 ml at L3/4. A very wide range of height of block was found in each group and because of this there were few statistically significant difference...

In 1990, Clarke and Hall carried out a survey of anaesthetic mortality in small animal practice. Their findings suggested that approximately 1 in 679 healthy dogs and cats died as a result of anaesthesia, while the figure increased to 1 in 31 for sick patients. More recently, the preliminary results of a Confidential Enquiry into Perioperative Small Animal Fatalities (CEPSAF) indicated that the...
