목 적 : 동맥혈 가스 분석은 신생아 집중 치료실에서 환아의 상태를 평가하기 위해 자주 시행하는 검사이나 제대 동맥 카테테르를 이용할 수 없는 경우에는 동맥 천자를 반복해야 되는데 기술적인 어려움과 위험성이 따르게 된다. 이에 저자들은 간편히 시행할 수 있는 모세혈 가스 분석 검사로 동맥혈 가스치를 추정하는 것이 타당성을 가지는지 조사하기 위해 이 연구를 시행하였다. 방 법: 2001년 4월부터 8월까지 방지거병원 신생아 집중 치료실에 입원하여 치료받은 환아 중 2주 이상된 신생아로서 동맥내 카테테르를 삽입하지 않은 상태에서 환기와 대사 상태 평가를 위해 혈액 가스 검사를 시행한 환아를 대상으로 하였다. 대상아들은 발뒤꿈치를 가온한 뒤 모세혈을 채혈하였고 곧 이어 동맥 천자를 시행하여 얻은 동맥혈과 함께 바로 검사실로 보내어 가스 분석하여 각 수치를 비교하였다. 결 과 : 1) 조사된 24명의 신생아의 재태 연령은 32-41주로 채혈은 모두 생후 2주일 이후에 시행되었다. 2) 모세혈과 동맥혈의 $pCO_2$, pH 사이에는 높은 상관 관계가 있었다(P<0.05). 3) 모세혈과 동맥혈의 $pO_2$ 사이에도 유의한 상관관계를 보였으나(P<0.05), 절대값의 차이는 92%에서 10 mmHg 이상이었다. 4) 모세혈과 동맥혈 가스의 상관 관계는 pH, $pCO_2$, $pO_2$의 순으로 유의하였다. 결 론 : 이상의 결과로 보아 동맥혈화된 말초혈액을 이용한 모세혈 가스 분석은 동맥혈 채혈이 어려운 경우에 유용한 대체 수단이 될 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

본 연구에서 정상적인 분만 산모의 제대동맥혈의 pH와 신생아의 Apgar score및 질병의 이환유무를 관찰하였고, 또한 분만시 제대결찰 시간의 경과가 태아의 혈중가스농도의 변화 및 신생아의 건강에 미치는가를 분석해 보였다. 본 연구의 결과, 불량한 Apgar score를 보인 많은 신생아에서 산성증을 보인 경우가 적음으로 제대동맥혈의 pH와 Apgar score의 상관관계는 미약한 것으로 생각되며, 제대동맥혈의 분석이 Apgar score보다는 태아의 건강상태의 파악에는 좀더 도움이 되리라 생각한다. 그러나 제대동맥혈의 pH와 Apgar score등, 단독적인 지표만으로 초기 신생아의 건강 상태 및 평가 및 관리에 임상적 의의를 부여하기는 어려웠다. 또한 분만시 제대혈관의 결찰의 시간의 결정은 대부분의 산과의들의 토론의 대상처럼 어느 시간이 태아의 건강에 도움이 되는가는 결정할 수가 없었다. 그러나 신생아의 건강 상태를 파악하기 위해서 제대동맥혈을 채취할 경우는, 조기결찰의 특별한 적응증이 없는 한 분만직후에는 제대결찰을 시행하지 않고 즉시 제대동맥혈을 채취하는 것이 바람직하다고 할 수 있다. 이는 분만직후의 제대동맥혈이 분만진통이나 분만자체가 태아에 미치는 영향을 가장 잘 반영하기 때문으로 생각되어지기 때문이다. 태아의 건강의 지표로서 Apgar score, 제대혈관내의 pH와 가스농도의 분석이 그 정확도와 감수성을 더하기 위해서는 좀 더 많은 대상군과 좀 더 다양한 대조군으로 연구를 하여야 할 것 으로 사료된다.

Monitoring the carbon dioxide concentration in arterial blood is vital for the evaluation and prevention of pulmonary disease. Yet, domestic pure arterial blood carbon dioxide sensor technologies are not being developed, instead all sensors are imported. In this paper, we develop a real time monitoring system for arterial blood partial pressure of carbon dioxide($pCO_2$) gas from the wrist by using a carbon micro-heater. The micro-heater was fabricated with a thickness of 0.3 ${\mu}m$ in order to collect the carbon dioxide under the skin. The micro-heater has been designed to perform temperature compensation in order to prevent damage to the skin. Two clinical trials of the system were undertaken. As a result, we demonstrated that a portable, transcutaneous carbon dioxide analysis($TcpCO_2$) device produced domestically is possible. In addition, this system reduced the analysis time significantly. Carbon films could reduce the unit price of these sensors by replacing the gold film used in foreign models. Also, we developed a real time monitoring system which can be used with optical biosensors for medical diagnostics as well as gas sensors for environmental monitoring.

Intermaxillary fixation is routine procedure to oral and maxillofacial area in jaw bone fracture, surgical correction of jaw deformity, osseus reconstruction of jaw. After transoral surgery, accompanied by intermaxillary fixation, dysphagia or airway obstruction may be followed due to blood clot, vomitus, or laryngeal spasm resulting from irritation by blood or secretions. Lingual or pharyngeal edema is other contributing factors of airway obstruction. In addition, intermaxillary fixation itself may cause obstruction of airway. In this study, pulmonary function test and arterial blood gas analysis were evaluated before and after intermaxillary fixation in 30 patients suffered from mandibular fractures. Comparative analysis was performed by estimated values. The results were as followed. 1. The spirometric values of FEV1, FEV1/FVC and FEF25-75% without intermaxillary fixation were reduced from 97.57%, 85.1%, 98.3,% to 71.7%, 66.5%, 61.2% with intermaxillary fixation, indicating the presence of obstructive pulmonary impairment. 2. Spirometric value of MVV, as the most influencing value of sensitive to extrapulmonary factors, was changed from 84.5% to 46.48%. 3. After intermaxillary fixation, the spirometric value of FVC, as indicator of restrictive pattern of pulmonary function, was not reduced significantly as measured from 94.47% to 89.97%. 4. $O_2$ saturation of arterial blood gas analysis without intermaxillary fixation was 97.86%. While intermaxillary fixation, $O_2$ saturation was 97.47%. The results indicate that careful airway management is mandatory undergoing intermaxillary fixation of various oral and maxillofacial surgery.

Automatic transmission of data from the blood analyzer to the request site is one of the most important part in hospital computerization. We have developed a system that transmits data from the arterial blood gas analyzer to the request site automatically In this system HOST computer, FILE server,'LAN(Local Area Network) , 3270 Emulator and bfulti-port card are integrated with 3 blood gas analyzers(NOVA Inc., USA) which are connected to a single multi-port card in a personal computer. When specimen are collected from tramp)inly sites, they are transferee to the laboratory In the Yonsei Cardiovascular Center After analysis, the result is transmitted to the personal computer via serial commnunication between machine and multi-port card using interrupt method. Then, the patient's information (Name, Patient ID No., etc.) is obtained from the HOST computer througth the emulator. The combined data (patient information & lab data) is transmitted to each request site via LAN automatically These results are stored in the File Server for one year and they can be reviewed anytime. Also, it could be used for the various statistics and the flow chart for clinical research. Additionally, we found thal this system reduces the personal labor.

Lung contusion due to blunt chest trauma is the most common lung injury and correlated with the clinical course and prognosis. Its diagnosis by CT[Computerized Tomogram] gives a more clear and understandable three dimensional view, by which we are able to measure the volume of the contused and entire lung. Other variables are arterial blood gas, number of rib fracture, presence of hemopneumothorax, sternal fracture and clavicle fracture, number of associated non-thoracic injuries, ventilator time and presence of pulmonary complication. Percentage[%] of lung contusion are expressed as mean $\pm$ standard deviation and data analysis was performed by means of multivariate repeated measures analysis of variance to detect significant differences in variables between positive thoracic injury group and negative group. The paired t-test was used. Differences of percentage of lung contusion between groups were assessed by one-way analysis of variance. Simple linear regression was used to perform correlation analysis in the number of rib fracture and ventilator time. A p value less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Pneumothorax and the number of associated other injuries affect the amount of lung contusion and pulmonary complication group has more contused lung volume. Arterial blood gas study shows no correlation with the amount of lung contusion statistically. The number of rib fracture correlated with the amount of lung contusion, which also correlated with ventilator time[r=0.56, p<0.05]. In conclusion, quantitative anlysis of lung contusion by CT predicts the clinical course and treatment such as ventilator care.

The Present study attempted to analyze the fate of CO diffused into the circulating blood through the alveoli. Dogs were induced to CO poisoning by rebreathing CO gas mixture contained in Krog's spirometer, by closed circuit method, for 60 minutes. The spirometer was filled initially with 282 ml of CO and 20 liters of air and oxygen, so the composition of gases were arranged as 1.4% in CO and 50% in $O_2$ at the begining of the rebreathing. Oxygen was added corresponding to the utilization of $O_2$ by the animal in proceeding of the experiment. At 60th minutes of CO rebreathing, the concentration of CO in arterial blood and in mixed venous blood were analysed and compared with each other after the CO contents were corrected with the hematocrit measured in the arterial and mixed venous blood. The distribution of CO gas to other tissues was estimated by the analysis of CO diffused into the cystic bile and into the peritoneal gas pocket which was formed by injection of 300 ml air into the peritoneal cavity prior to the CO gas rebreathing. The blood volume was measured by dilution method using $^{51}Chromium$ tagged red cells. CO amount vanished in the animal body was calculated by subtraction of total CO content in blood stream and the CO remained in closed circuit breathing system from the CO amount given to the breathing system at the begining of the experiment. Results obtained are summarized as follows: 1. The content of CO corrected by the hematocrit value was slightly less in mixed venous blood than in arterial blood. The amount of CO diffused into the cystic bile and into the peritoneal cavity was averaged to 0.1% and 0.4% of the CO amount in 100 ml of blood, respectively. 2. For 60 minutes of CO rebreathing, CO-hemoglobin saturation reached about 77% at the 60th minutes, CO amount vanished in the experimental animal averaged 36.1 ml/dog/hr., or 21% of the total CO volume in the blood stream. The average vanishing rate of CO during 60 minutes of CO rebreathing per kg of body weight was 2.71 ml/hr. Production of CO measured in ten dogs under hypoxic condition averaged 0.023 ml/kg/hr. The major part of the CO vanished in the dogs seemed to be oxidized to $CO_2$ by various tissues of the animal. The conclusion might be delivered as such oxidation of CO to $CO_2$ by animal tissues can play a role in part of the process of recovery and protection of animal from CO-poisoning.

Pulmonary arteriovenous fistula is a rare congenital vascular malformation resulting from abnormal capillary development with incomplete formation of vascular septum normally dividing the primitive connections between the venous and arterial plexuses. Recently we have experienced a case of the bilateral pulmonary arteriovenous fistula in 7 years-old female patient. On admission, clinical manifestations were cyanosis of lips, clubbing and cyanosis of digits, and exertional dyspnea. The PO2 in arterial blood gas analysis was 43.3mmHg. In left upper and right lower lobe pulmonary arteriovenous fistulas were confirmed by bilateral pulmonary angiography. Left upper lobectomy and wedge resection of right lower lobe were performed respectively. Postoperative results were good.
