It is important to check the types of drugs when treating acute drug intoxication. This study researches the clinical characteristics and types of patients hospitalized in emergency medical center for drug addiction in 2009 and 2010. By applying a drug addiction selecting kit, it studied the flexibility and clinical efficiency during diagnosis and treatment. The study result shows, among the drugs causing addiction, Sedative accounts for 34.4%, Herdicide 23.5%, Analgesic 17.2%, Insectide 7.8% and else 17.2%. Sedative showed the highest proportion both in 2009 and 2010. Among the drug addicted patients, 39 cases did not know that the drugs are poisonous and among them, the drug addiction selecting kit was positive in 32 cases (82.0%). In 42 cases where addiction was suspicious, 25 cases (59.5%) were positive in the drug addiction selecting kit. In 57 cases of using drug addiction selecting kits, the cases in which benzodiazepine was positive, were 30 and the most frequently cases were as follows; Tricyclic Antidepressants (TCA) 13 cases, Amphetamines 3 cases, barbiturate 3 cases, and piate 3 cases. In the district using drug addiction kit meaningfully had Flumazenil injection much greater impact than the one not using the kit. This proves the efficiency of the kit (p<0.05). The uses of drug addiction selecting kits are for acute drug intoxicated patients and for providing objective and scientific information when emergency medical doctor are checking unchecked poisoning drugs. It is considered that drug addiction selecting kits would give help when treating the early stage of drug addicted patients in emergency medical treatment.

Objects : Sanjoin, the seeds of Zizyphus vulgaris var. spinosus has been used as the most important hypnotic agent in chinese medicine to treat insomnia. This research was performed in order to examine the effect of betulinic acid and sanjoinine-A which are components of Sanjoin. Method : Sleeping time, sleep recordings of EEG, EMG, serum serotonin level, and locomotor activity were measured in rats which received betulinic acid and sanjoinine-A as sleep induction material extracted from Sanjoin. Results : 1) Groups received betulinic acid, sanjoinine-A, and lorazepam showed increased sleep time than control group with saline. 2) Groups with betulinic acid, sanjoinine-A, lorazepam and saline recorded ${\beta}$-wave in sleep recordings of EEG. In EMG, there was no significant difference among all groups. 3) No significant difference in serum serotonin level among all groups was found. 4) In autonomic activity testing, groups of betulinic acid, sanjoinine-A, and lorazepam showed significantly more decreased in activity than saline group. In comparison of groups of betulinic acid and sanjoinine-A with a group of lorazepam, there was no significant difference. Conclusion : These results suggest that betulinic acid and sanjoinine-A have the sedative effect like lorazepam rather than sleep effect.

The combined preparations of the traditional Korean prescriptions, Sahyangsohap-won (A1) and Woohwangporyong-hwan (B1) were evaluated on pharmacological actions in rats and mice, in parallel with the preparations of their modified prescriptions (A2 and B2). The acute toxicities of the four preparations were very low of which $LD_{50}$ values were more than 4g/kg, p.o. and no systematic symptoms were found at the doses. All the preparations showed sedative action by prolongation of sleeping time induced with hexobarbital sodium. The action was more potent in the modified preparations than in the original ones. All the preparations had no anticonvulsant action both in chemoshock seizures induced by pentetrazole and strychnine and in electroshock seizure. In rat fundus preparation, A1 and A2 elicited strong contraction at the concentration of $1{\times}10^{-3}\;g/ml$ in bath, whereas B1 and B2 did neither contraction nor relaxation at the same concentration. The four preparations had no inhibitory effect against acetylcholine induced spasm. In rat intestinal preparation, the four preparations exhibited neither contraction nor relaxation. However, A1 and A2 had antagonistic effect against spasm at the concentration of $1{\times}10^{-3}\;g/ml$. Single administration of each preparation at the dose of 0.24g/kg, p.o. stimulated the secretion of pepsin in rat stomach without inciting the secretion of gastric juice. Their stimulating actions were more marked in B1 and B2 than in A1 and A2, and were more promptly exhibited in the modified preparations (A2 and B2). Accelerating action of bile secretion by single administration of each preparation was found at the dose of 0.24g/kg, p.o. in rats. All the preparations except A2 also stimulated the secretion of bile acid.

본 연구는 2011년 8월 16일부터 2012년 7월 11일 사이에 고위 척추마취를 겪는 환자에서 나이에 따른 진정정도의 차이를 호흡기 및 순환기 생체징후의 변화와 함께 마취심도감시장치를 이용하여 객관적으로 알아보고자 하였다. 대상자는 하지나 하복부 수술을 시행할 예정인 20세에서 80세 사이의 성인 60명으로 하였으며, 나이에 따라 20세에서 50세 사이, 51세에서 80세 사이의 환자 군으로 나누었다. 두 그룹은 각각 30명의 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 두 군 모두에서 마취심도수치는 수술 전에 비해 낮게 나왔다. 수술 중 가장 낮은 마취심도수치는 노인 군에서 젊은이 군에 비해 낮았다. 가장 낮은 마취심도수치와 나이는 음의 상관관계를 보여주었다. 노인 군은 젊은이 군에 비해 수술 중 90% 이하의 낮은 산소포화도를 가진 환자수도 많았다. 고위 척추마취 하에서 노인 환자들은 젊은이에 비해 증가된 저산소혈증과 함께 깊은 진정 효과를 보였다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to identify the changes of a physiologic nature and the sedative parameters associated with dexmedetomidine and pethidine, in patients undergoing plate and screw removal surgery, after orthognathic surgery. Methods: Twenty-three patients were sedated with dexmedetomidine and pethidine during plate and screw removal, after orthognathic surgery. An initial loading dose of dexmedetomidine ($1.0{\mu}g/kg$ infused over 10 minutes) was followed by a maintenance dose ($1.0{\mu}g/kg/hr$). Systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, oxygen saturation, and heart rate were monitored. Perioperative amnesia and anxiety were recorded. Results: Significant changes were found in the blood pressure and heart rate (Freidman test, P<0.05), but not in oxygen saturation (Freidman test, P>0.05). Amnesia during local injection was observed in eight patients (34.8%). Compared with the preoperative anxiety score, the intraoperative anxiety score was decreased. Conclusion: In this study, we found cardiovascular and respiratory stability in intravenous sedation using dexmedetomidine with pethidine, in plate and screw removal, after orthognathic surgery. Furthemore, intravenous sedation using dexmedetomidine with pethidine shows adequate analgesic and sedative effects.

Background Chloral hydrate (CH) is the primary agent most commonly used for pediatric sedation prior to diagnostic, therapeutic procedures. In the management of pediatric facial laceration, the initial dose of CH has to balance the need for adequate sedation against the need to minimize sedative complications. Methods A retrospective review of medical records of 834 children who visited our emergency room for facial lacerations from August 2010 to September 2012 was conducted. They were divided into six groups on the basis of the initial dose of CH administered. Further, each group was compared with the standard group (70 to ${\leq}80mg/kg$) with respect to sedation success, augmentation dose, failed sedation, time to procedure, and time of stay. Results With respect to the complication rate, only group 1 (range, 40 to ${\leq}50mg/kg$) showed a significantly lower complication rate. In the case of all the other variables considered, there were no significant differences among any of the groups. Conclusions An initial CH dose of $48{\pm}2mg/kg$ does not negatively affect the success rate of sedation or the need for additional sedative during the primary closure of facial lacerations in pediatric patients. Further, lower doses reduce the incidences of adverse effects and do not delay procedure readiness. Therefore, $48{\pm}2mg/kg$ of CH can be considered the optimal initial dose for pediatric sedation.
