OBJECTIVES To compare the combination of paracetamol (20 mg/kg) and propofol to fentanyl (1 µg/kg) and propofol in terms of providing adequate analgesia and a comparable recovery profile in suction termination procedures.      METHODS This is a prospective, randomized clinical study in which we obtained informed consents from 146 women (fentanyl group: 76 [52.1%], paracetamol group: 70 [47.9%...

The percutaneous muscle biopsy technique is used in clinical practice and biomedical research. We developed a new enhanced-suction technique [suction-enhancing nipples (SEN)] and compared it with techniques currently in practice by assessing biopsy yields on anesthetized pigs. We applied the enhanced-suction technique to human subjects participating in a clinical trial. In the pig, there was a ...

The diameter of the internal cervical os was measured in several groups of patients in an attempt to assess any damage caused by suction termination of pregnancy. Pregnant women who had had a previous abortion by vacuum aspiration had significantly greater cervical diameters than those who had not, and there was a statistically significant correlation between dilatation of the cervix at operati...
