A total of 14 children who visited the department of Pediatric dentistry of Dankook University Dental Hospital from January, 2012 to May, 2012 and decided to get dental treatment under inhalation sevoflurane deep sedation, were studied to determine the effectiveness of end-tidal sevoflurane, respiratory and cardiovascular function to analyze monitoring sheets. The Heart rate (H.R) data were mean 101.4 rate/min (76.4-135.4 rate/min). The systolic blood pressure data mean were 96.9 mmHg (84.2-109.2 mmHg) and diastolic blood pressure data mean were 50.5 mmHg (34.0-62.0 mmHg). The Respiration rate (R.R) data mean were 24.4 rate/min (15.0-36.7 rate/min). The $SpO_2$ data mean were 99.4% (97.5-100.0%). The end tidal $CO_2$ ($ETCO_2$) data mean were 27.8 mmHg (16.4-38.0 mmHg). The end-tidal sevoflurane data mean were 1.9 vol% (1.0-3.4 vol%).

This study is about implementing wireless transferring system in pre-hospital cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR). Also, this study includes monitoring based feedback between patient and hospital to increase the survival rate of emergency patient by developing the performance of cardiopulmonary resuscitation in pre-hospital. It minimizes the loss of flow rate or gastric inflation through the space between the airway and the esophagus, which enables the inspiration-expiration rate to be measured more precisely. Due to these reasons this study applied ET insertion based respiratory sensor to measure flow rate. The main indices of artificial ventilation are justified from minute respiration(V), end-tidal $CO_2(E_TCO_2)$, and tracheal pressure($P_{tr}$). The simulation is performed to verify the bandwidth and delay time of transport network for in-hospital monitoring even as transporting images and voice information simultaneously. The total bandwidth is 815 kbps, and WLAN (IEEE 802.11x) is used as communication protocol. The network load is under 1.5% and the transmit delay time is measured under 0.3 seconds.

This study was to evaluate the effects of tramadol and medetomidine administration on minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) of isoflurane in dogs. MAC of isoflurane was determined in four occasions; 1 ml saline (Control), $2{\mu}g$/kg medetomidine (M2), 4 mg/kg tramadol (T4), $2{\mu}g$/kg medetomidine-4 mg/kg tramadol combination (M2T4). Heart rate, blood pressure, respiratory rate, end-tidal carbon dioxide concentration, saturation of hemoglobin with oxygen and body temperature were recorded. After administration of M2 ($0.81{\times}0.18%$), T4 ($0.81{\times}0.14%$) and M2T4 ($0.62{\times}0.12%$), less isoflurane was required than the control value ($1.13{\times}0.19%$). Significantly lower heart rate than the control value was detected after treatment of M2, T4, and M2T4. When only M2T4 was administered, blood pressure was significantly higher than the control value. In conclusion, administrations of tramadol, medetomidine and medetomidine-tramadol combination decreased the MAC of isoflurane in dogs. Especially, medetomidine-tramadol combinations could be useful as a premedication because of the anesthetic sparing effect and moderate changes in cardiovascular system.

Background: Cardiopulmonary bypass is an essential process to maintain circulation for saving life during the cardiac surgery, But it is a process in which systemic inflammation was evoked inevitably because of the exposure of blood to foreign surface. The injuries to distal organs during the cardiopulmonary bypass were resulted from systemic inflammation and the disturbances of micro-circulations in the organs. We designed this study to research the effects of leukocyte depletion from pump-oxygenator priming solution on the systemic inflammation, and the micro-circulation of gastric mucosa that is suggested by the gastric mucosal $CO_{2}$ partial pressure and acidity. Material and Method: The dogs were divided into three groups according to the different pump-oxygenator priming solutions; non-hemic crystalloid solution; leukocyte-depleted homologous blood; and non leukocyte-depleted homo-logous blood. Each priming solution group contained five dogs. In all three groups, 2 hours of cardiopulmonary bypass, and 4 consecutive hours of general anesthesia was maintained on the mechanical ventilation. Each dog was evaluated for the gastric mucosal pH, $CO_{2}$ partial Pressure, arterial pH, $CO_{2}$ partial pressure, the exhaled air $CO_{2}$ partial pressure and the level of IL-8 on before the cardiopulmonary bypass, 1 hour after the cardiopulmonary bypass, 2 hours after the cardiopulmonary bypass, 2 hours after the restoration of normal circulation, and 4 hours after the restoration of normal circulation after the cardiopulmonary bypass. The levels of IL-8 were measured with ELISA (enzyme linked immunosorbent assay) technique. Result: 1. There were significant differences of gastric mucosal $CO_{2}$ partial pressure between the leukocyte-depleted homologous blood group and other two groups(vs non leukocyte-depleted homologous blood group; P=0.02, vs non-hemic crystalloid solution group; P=0,01). 2. The gastric mucosal pH of leukocyte-depleted homologous blood group was significantly different from non leukocyte-depleted homologous blood group (p=0.01). 3. The levels of IL-8, which examine the systemic inflammation, showed signi- ficantly better results in leukocyte-depleted homologous blood group and non-hemic crystalloid solution group than non leukocyte-depleted homologous blood group (p=0.01, 0.01). Conclusion: Based upon these results, we concluded that the leukocyte depletion from the pump-oxygenator priming solution has a beneficial effects in reducing systemic inflammation and the preserving of gastric mucosal micro-circulation.

배경: 매복지치의 수술적 발치 시 propofol과 remifentanil을 이용한 목표조절농도주입(Target controlled infusion) 의식하 정주진정법의 적절한 주입농도를 제시하고 그 안전성을 평가하고자 하였다. 방법: 매복지치의 수술적 발치가 예정된 미국마취학회 신체 등급 분류 1, 2에 속하는 15-65세, 142명(여 83명, 남 59명)의 환자를 대상으로 소급 연구하였다. 환자는 수술 전 목표조절농도주입법을 이용한 의식하 진정법 사용에 관한 동의서를 작성하였다. 정맥내 삽관을 시행하고 수액을 공급을 시작하고, 4-5 L/min의 산소를 비관을 통해서 공급하였다. Propofol과 remifentanil의 초기 목표 혈중농도는 각각 $0.5\;{\mu}g/ml$와 1.0 ng/ml로 정하였다. 수술 중, 환자의 불안 통증 정도에 따라 목표농도를 조절하였으며 최저 농도와 최대 농도, 평균 농도, 주입된 총 용량을 기록하였다. 또한 수축기혈압과 맥박 수, 산소포화도, 호기 말 이산화탄소량을 수술 시작 전, 수술 중 5분 간격으로 확인하고 기록하였다. 모든 측정치는 평균 $\pm$ 표준편차나 환자의 수, 초기 측정치에서의 백분율 편차로 표시하였다. 결과: 수술 동안의 목표 혈중농도의 평균은 propofol은 $0.54{\pm}0.11\;{\mu}g/ml$이고, remifentanil은 $1.11{\pm}0.30\;ng/ml$였다. 수술 중 조절된 최대농도는 propofol은 $0.6{\pm}0.23\;{\mu}g/ml$이고, remifentanil은 $1.3{\pm}0.63\;ng/ml$였다. 이는 의식하 진정에 해당되는 범의의 농도라고 할 수 있겠다. 진정동안 환자의 언어적 의사소통은 유지 되었으며 산소 포화도는 4-5 L/min 의 산소 보충 하에 98%이상으로 유지되었다. 수축기 혈압과 맥박은 대부분의 환자에서 정상변위범위(${\pm}20%$)내에서 유지되었다. 결론: 본 연구는 목표조절 농도주입 의식하 진정에서 사용된 농도(propofol $0.5\;{\mu}g/ml$, remifentanil 1.0 ng/ml)는 안전하게 의식하 진정을 가능한 것을 보여준다. 이는 치과 치료 시 목표조절농도 주입의식하 진정법에서 적절한 목표농도를 제시한다.

This study was aimed to evaluate the effects of tramadol hydrochloride on the minimum alveolar concentration of isoflurane ($MAC_{ISO}$) in dogs. Six healthy, female German shepherd dogs (aged 1-2 years) were used in this study. Anesthesia was induced by mask induction and maintained with isoflurane in oxygen. Mechanical ventilation maintained the end-tidal $CO_2$ partial pressure ($P_{ET}CO_2$) from 35 to 45 mmHg throughout the study. A baseline $MAC_{ISO}$ ($MAC_{ISO}B$) was determined starting 45 minutes after induction of anesthesia by clamping a pedal digit until gross purposeful movement was detected. After $MAC_{ISO}B$ determination, dogs received a tramadol loading dose of 3 mg/kg followed by a continuous rate infusion (CRI) of 2.6 mg/kg/h. The determination of $MAC_{ISO}$ after administration of tramadol ($MAC_{ISO}T$) began 20 min after the start of the CRI. Arterial blood pressure and heart rate were recorded continuously and arterial blood samples for blood gas analysis were collected at the end of the equilibration period. Mean ${\pm}$ SD values for the $MAC_{ISO}B$ and $MAC_{ISO}T$ were $1.33{\pm}0.04%$ and $1.23{\pm}0.04%$, respectively. The $MAC_{ISO}B$ decreased significantly by $7.5{\pm}0.2%$ (P < 0.05) after administration of tramadol. The mean heart rate and arterial blood pressure of six dogs were not changed significantly after tramadol administration. The blood gas levels remained constant during the study. In conclusion, tramadol could significantly reduce $MAC_{ISO}$ without depression of cardiorespiratory function. Thus, the use of tramadol on inhalation anesthesia with isoflurane in dogs can improve the stability of anesthesia and the quality of recovery.
