The mammary excretion of suphamethomidine after intravenous and/or oral administration was investigated in cow. The results show that sulphamethomidine is bound to plasma proteins to a great extent (80~90%). Ay a dosage of 60 mg./kg. maximal concenration in plasma of this sulphonamide was reached 7-10 hours after oral dosing. The sulphonamide concentration in plasma slowly declined after both oral and intravenous administration (fig. 1, 2, and 3) The concentration of sulphonamide in milk was very low and the excretion was completed in 7 days after a single oral dose and 5 days after intravenous injection while in the case of blood plasma it was 11 and 7 days, respectively. In addition, the renal excretion of sulphamethomidine was investigated while under continuous intravenous intravenous infusion. The excretion ratios varies according to self depression (table. 1). Blockade of the tubular secretion with diodone lowered the excretion of sulphamethomidine. It is concluded that the renal excretion of sulphamethomidine in cows occurs by filtration by slight tubular secretion and also by a high rate of back diffusion.

Dentists often sedate patients in order to reduce their dental phobia and stress during dental treatment. Sedatives are administered through various routes such as oral, inhalation, and intravenous routes. Intravenous administration has the advantage of rapid onset of action, predictable duration of action, and easy titration. Typically, midazolam, propofol or dexmedetomidine are used as intravenous sedatives. Administration of these sedatives via infusion by using a syringe pump is more effective and successful than infusing them as a bolus. However, during intravenous infusion of sedatives or opioids using a syringe pump, fatal accidents may occur due to the clinician's carelessness. To prevent such risks, smart syringe pumps have been introduced clinically. They allow clinicians to perform effective sedation by using a computer to control the dose of the drug being infused. To ensure patient safety, various alarm features along with a drug library, which provides drug information and prevents excessive infusion by limiting the dose, have been added to smart pumps. In addition, programmed infusion systems and target-controlled infusion systems have also been developed to enable effective administration of sedatives. Patient-controlled infusion, which allows a patient to control his/her level of sedation through self-infusion, has also been developed. Safer and more successful sedation may be achieved by fully utilizing these new features of the smart pump.

Intravenous midazolam has been frequently used for the relief of anxiety in dental treatment. This is likely the result of the sedative and anterograde amnestic properties of midazolam that are mediated through $\gamma$-Aminobutyric acid agonism. Unfortunately, Paradoxical reactions to midazolam include agitation, talkativeness, confusion, disinhibition, aggression,violent behavior, act of self-injury and need for restraints. These occur in less than 1% of all patients receiving midazolam, may occur at variable times after administration and are difficult to predict and diagnose. Two women with severe anxiety for dental treatment experienced paradoxical reactions associated with the use of intravenous midazolam. We are reviewed the management and prevention of paradoxical reactions and its different etiology.

Nicotine addiction is a worldwide problem. However, previous studies characterizing the rewarding and reinforcing effects of nicotine in animal models have reported inconsistent findings. It was observed that the addictive effects are variable on different factors (e.g. route, dose, and age). Here, we evaluated the rewarding and reinforcing effects of nicotine in different routes of administration, across a wide dose range, and in different age groups. Two of the most widely used animal models of drug addiction were employed: the conditioned place preference (CPP) and self-administration (SA) tests. Nicotine CPP was evaluated in different routes [intraperitoneal (i.p.) and subcutaneous (s.c.)], doses (0.05 to 1.0 mg/kg) and age [adolescent and adult rats]. Similarly, intravenous nicotine SA was assessed in different doses (0.01 to 0.06 mg/kg/infusion) and age (adolescent and adult rats). In the CPP test, s.c. nicotine produced greater response than i.p. The 0.2 mg/kg dose produced highest CPP response in adolescent, while 0.6 mg/kg in adult rats; which were also confirmed in 7 days pretreated rats. In the SA test, adolescent rats readily self-administer 0.03 mg/kg/infusion of nicotine. Doses that produced nicotine CPP and SA induced blood nicotine levels that corresponded well with human smokers. In conclusion, we have demonstrated that nicotine produces reliable CPP [0.2 mg/kg dose (s.c.)] in adolescents and [0.6 mg/kg dose (s.c.)] in adults, and SA [0.03 mg/kg/infusion] in adolescent rats. Both tests indicate that adolescent rats are more sensitive to the rewarding and reinforcing effects of nicotine.

Currently, the expanding recreational use of synthetic cannabinoids (SCBs) threatens public health. SCBs produce psychoactive effects similar to those of tetrahydrocannabinol, the main component of cannabis, and additionally induce unexpected pharmacological side effects. SCBs are falsely advertised as legal and safe, but in reality, SCB abuse has been reported to cause acute intoxication and addictive disorders. However, because of the lack of scientific evidence to elucidate their dangerous pharmacological effects, SCBs are weakly regulated and continue to circulate in illegal drug markets. In the present study, the intravenous self-administration (IVSA) paradigm was used to evaluate the abuse potential of three SCBs (AM-1248, CB-13, and PB-22) in rats. All three SCBs maintained IVSA with a large number of infusions and active lever presses, demonstrating their reinforcing effects. The increase of active lever presses was particularly significant during the early IVSA sessions, indicating the reinforcement-enhancing effects of the SCBs (AM-1248 and CB-13). The number of inactive lever presses was significantly higher in the SCB groups (AM-1248 and CB-13) than that in the vehicle group, indicating their impulsive effects. In summary, these results demonstrated that SCBs have distinct pharmacological properties and abuse potential.

연구배경: 본 연구는 부당청구 예방형 자율점검제 시범사업의 "개선요청 통보 및 모니터링" 중재활동이 의료기관의 중재 실시 전과 후 청구건수와 청구총진료비 청구행태에 있어서의 변화를 검증하고자 하였다. 방법: 자료는 건강보험심사평가원의 2021년 7월부터 2022년 2월까지 시범사업 항목인 '정맥 내 일시주사(KK020)'를 청구한 기관 중 예방형 자율점검제 대상기관으로 선정된 1,129개 의료기관의 청구자료와 신고 현황자료를 활용하였다. 비교 대상을 선정하기 위해 1:3 비율로 성향점수매칭을 사용하였고, 청구행태 변화를 검증하기 위해 대응표본 t-검정과 t-검정을 실시하였다. 또한 청구행태 변화에 차이가 있는 경우 이에 영향을 미치는 요인분석을 위하여 회귀분석을 시행하였다. 결과: 중재 실시 전과 후의 청구행태는 실험군의 모든 의료기관 종별에서 청구건수와 청구총진료비가 유의하게 감소하였고, 의원의 대조군에서는 유의한 증가를 보였다. 의료기관 및 의사 특성에 따른 중재 실시 전·후 청구행태는 실험군은 의원의 의사 연령 40세 미만을 제외하고 모든 종별에서 유의하게 감소하였다. 대조군은 종합병원과 병원은 개원기간에서, 의원은 표시과목에서 일부 유의한 감소가 있었고, 의사 50세 이상 남성에서 유의하게 증가한 것으로 나타났다. 실험군 대상 의료기관의 청구행태에 변화에 대한 회귀분석 결과, 모든 종별에서 중재 실시 전과 후에 청구건수와 청구총진료비가 유의하게 감소하였다. 또한 의료기관과 의사 특성에서 병원은 개원기간이 길수록 유의한 증가를 나타났고, 의원은 소재지역과 표시과목(기타)에서 유의한 감소를 보였다. 결론: 실험군의 부당청구 예방형 자율점검제의 중재 실시 이후 청구경향의 변화가 연구가설대로 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 이는 제도 시행 직후에 의료기관 스스로 청구행태를 개선하고, 교정하는 사전예방적 활동의 효과가 존재하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 대조군에서도 통보 대상기관 위주의 제도운영방식에도 불구하고 일부 유의한 감소가 나타난 것은 예방형 자율점검제의 간접적인 효과로 볼 수 있다. 따라서 비대상기관에도 청구행태 개선활동이 이루어질 수 있도록 적극적인 홍보와 교육, 간담회 등의 추가적인 지원과 지속적인 모니터링이 필요하다. 이를 통해 부당청구가 감소될 수 있도록 예방형 자율점검제를 확대하는 것이 바람직하다.

Background: An understanding of the features of postoperative pain is essential for optimal analgesic dosing strategies. Using a visual analogue scale (VAS) score and patient controlled analgesia (PCA) infusion pattern analysis, an anesthesiologist can estimate when and how severely patients suffer from pain. Several reports have been published about circadian changes in the pain threshold. Postoperative pain was analyzed retrospectively in 250 patients who underwent orthognathic surgery. Methods: A total of 250 patients were allocated into two groups according to the time of recovery from anesthesia. Patients in the early group (group E) recovered from anesthesia before 06:00 p.m. Patients in the late group (group L) recovered from anesthesia after 06:00 p.m. All patients received intravenous patient controlled analgesia (IV PCA) at the end of the operation. The VAS score of pain intensity was measured. Self-administration of bolus analgesic from the IV PCA device was also analyzed according to actual time and elapsed time. Results: VAS scores showed no difference between the two groups except 36 hours after recovery from anesthesia. On POD1, there were two peaks for self-administration of bolus analgesics in group L and one peak in the morning for group E. Two peaks each in the morning and in the afternoon were shown in both groups on POD2. Conclusions: Diurnal variance in pain should be considered for effective dosing strategies.

This study aimed to evaluate and compare the pre-emptive analgesic efficacy of injected ketorolac to that of other agents for impacted third molar surgical removal in a healthy population. PubMed, Ovid SP, Cochrane databases were filtered from 1980 to July 2020 for potential papers using relevant MeSH terms and pre-specified inclusion and exclusion criteria independently by reviewers. Studies that compared pre-emptive intramuscular or intravenous administration of ketorolac to other agents were evaluated. The outcomes sought were self-reported postoperative pain (patient-perceived pain), median duration for rescue analgesic medication, total number of analgesics consumed in the recovery period, and global assessment (overall patient satisfaction) after the recovery period. Six studies were included in the final evaluation. The outcome of pain perception and the number of analgesics taken were significantly lower in the ketorolac group (intramuscular or intravenous) in most of the studies (n=5) than in the group of other drugs. The mean time for rescue analgesia intake was higher for the ketorolac group, and global assessment scores were also better in the ketorolac group. Although the included studies show significantly better outcomes such as postoperative pain, median time taken for rescue medication, total number of analgesics taken, and overall patient satisfaction with injected ketorolac group in comparison to injected diclofenac, dexamethasone, and tramadol, definitive conclusions cannot be made regarding the superiority of injected Ketorolac as a pre-emptive agent. A greater number of randomized control trials with a proper protocol are needed to make definitive conclusions.

목 적 : 본 연구는 소아 급성 ITP에서 IVIG 치료 후 호중구 감소의 빈도와 정도 및 경과 등을 알아보기 위하여 시행되었다. 방 법 : 2001년 1월부터 2006년 6월까지 부산대학교병원에서 급성 ITP로 진단받은 소아 환자 총 54례를 대상으로 하였다. 이중 IVIG를 투여한 군이 42례, Anti-D Ig을 투여한 군이 12례이었으며, 각각의 투여 후에 백혈구 및 호중구 수를 비교하였다. 또한 IVIG의 투여 방법 및 투여 횟수에 따른 백혈구 및 호중구 수도 비교하였다. 결 과 : IVIG 투여 군과 Anti-D Ig 투여 군에서 투여 직전의 백혈구 및 호중구 수의 차이는 없었으나, 투여 후에는 IVIG 투여군에서 42례 중 32례(76.2%)가 투여 전에 비해 호중구 수가 50% 이상 감소하였고, 투여 종료 후 1일째에 호중구수가 최저로 감소하였다. 한편 Anti-D Ig 투여군에서는 12례 중 2례(16.7 %)만이 투여 전 호중구 수에 비해 50% 이상으로 감소하였다. 첫 번째 IVIG 투여군(42례)과 재투여군(7례)에서 호중구 수의 감소는 통계학적인 차이가 없었다. IVIG 투여 방법에 따른 호중구 수의 감소는 5일간 투여군과 2일간 투여군 사이에 통계학적인 차이가 없었다. 면역글로불린 투여 후에 발생한 호중구 감소는 평균 투여 종료 7일 후에 39례 중 38례(97%)에서 자연적으로 회복되었다. 결 론 : 소아 ITP 환자에서 IVIG 투여 후에 호중구 감소가 비교적 흔하게 발생되며, 이는 일시적인 현상으로 대부분 자연적으로 회복되는 것으로 생각된다.
