Pelvic floor neuropathy in relation to the outcome of burch colposuspension

The aim of the study was to determine the role of neurogenic damage to pelvic floor muscles on the outcome of Burch colposuspension. Thirty women objectively continent after Burch colposuspension and 18 women with recurrent stress urinary incontinence (RSUI) were investigated with concentric needle electrode electromyography (EMG) in both pubococcygeus muscles and the external anal sphincter muscle. Neurogenic EMG patterns were significantly more often seen in the pubococcygeus muscles in women with RSUI than in women continent after the colposuspension (P<0.05). The distribution of neurogenic EMG patterns in the investigated muscles was significantly more pronounced in women with RSUI than in continent women: at least one pubococcygeus muscle with neurogenic EMG pattern, 72% vs. 34% (P<0.05); both pubococcygeus muscles, 50% vs. 13% (P<0.05); and all three investigated muscles 41% vs. 10% (P<0.05). In conclusion, the results imply an association between the outcome of the Burch colposuspension and the occurrence of neuropathy in the pelvic floor muscles. Occurrence of neurogenic damage in the pubococcygeus muscles seems to impair the outcome of Burch colposuspension.

A New Low Threshold Platinized Epicardial Pacing Electrode: Comparative Evaluation in Immature Canines

A prospective comparison of pacing and sensing capabilities between the conventional Medtronic Model 4951 platinum-iridium epicardial pacing electrode and a new modified "platinized" version of the same electrode was performed in immature canines to determine if the new electrode design improves pacing in the immature myocardium. The conventional electrode was modified by electroplating platinum black particles onto the surface to increase the effective or true microscopic surface area, yet essentially maintain the same overall geometric electrode size. Both epicardial electrodes were inserted into the right ventricular myocardium with the lead pad sutured to the epicardium, and externalized to the scruff in five puppies (age 3 months). An additional left ventricular lead was implanted to permit chronic pacing following epicardially-induced atrioventricular block. Acute and chronic sensing and pacing capabilities of each externalized electrode were performed at implant and weekly up to 4 months. Histologic examination of each electrode implant site was performed at the end of the study period. At implant, both electrodes exhibited comparable values for sensed R waves, lead impedances, and pacing thresholds. During the study, the platinized electrode exhibited lower pacing thresholds. Analysis of all postimplant data demonstrated this threshold difference to be significantly lower (P less than .01) for the platinized version. Lead impedance and sensing capabilities remained comparable between the two designs. Histologic study demonstrated less fibrotic infiltration at the platinized electrode site. This preliminary evaluation indicates that for the duration of the postimplant study period, the platinized epicardial electrode design was associated with significantly lower thresholds and less fibrosis as a function of time compared to the conventional smooth electrode surface design. The new platinized electrode limits exit block in the developing immature myocardium and permits safe pacing at lower pulse widths and voltages to increase battery life.     

Rate-responsive pacing with a pacemaker that detects respiratory rate (Biorate): clinical advantages and complications

The respiratory-dependent pacemaker (RDP3 or MB-1, Biorate, Biotec International, S.p.A., Bologna, Italy) detects the respiratory rate by measuring thoracic impedance using a subcutaneous auxiliary lead. The sensed respiratory rate is used to determine the pacing rate response. This pacemaker had been implanted in 9 patients with a mean age of 58 (range 42-69) years. During symptom-limited treadmill exercise, rate-modulated pacing resulted in a significant increase in pacing rate (mean +/- SD, 124 +/- 10 vs. 71 +/- 3 beats/min p less than 0.001) and exercise capacity (343 +/- 147 vs. 463 +/- 120 s, p less than 0.05) compared to those achieved with constant rate ventricular pacing. Brief treadmill exercise tests showed appropriate rate response to increased walking speed and gradient. However, rate response was modified by arm swinging-induced motion artefact which affected the measured "impedance." Complications observed on follow-up included perforation of the auxiliary lead in 2 patients and symptomatic myopotential interference in 3 patients with the RDP3 pacemaker, all of whom required unit replacement. It is concluded that although the respiratory-dependent pacemaker can confer physiological benefit in patients with bradycardia, myopotential interference (largely overcome by the new version MB-1 with programmable sensitivity) and the auxiliary lead can be problematic in some patients.     

Reliability of Transesophageal Pacing in the Assessment of Sinus Node Function in Patients with Sick Sinus Syndrome

The purpose of this study was to find out whether transesophageal pacing could be utilized for assessment of sinus node function in patients with sick sinus syndrome (SSS). In 17 patients with SSS (study group) we compared the results of sinus node tests obtained both in the basal state and after pharmacological autonomic blockade by endocavitary stimulation and, 24 hours later, by transesophageal pacing. In another group of 17 patients with SSS (control group), we compared the results obtained by two endocavitary studies. In "study group", sinus cycle length (SCL) and corrected sinus node recovery time (CSRT) did not show significant differences between the two studies both in the basal state and after autonomic blockade, whereas sinoatrial conduction time (SACT) was more prolonged during esophageal pacing (P less than 0.01). In "control group", sinus node measures did not show significant differences between the two studies. In the "study group," the following coefficients of correlation were obtained in the basal state; SCL, r = 0.65, CSRT, r = 0.57, SACT, r = 0.52 and after autonomic blockade: SCL, r = 0.95, CSRT, r = 0.62 and SACT, r = 0.53. In the basal state, the correlation for SCL and CSRT between the two studies was lower in the "study group" than in the "control group" (P less than 0.05), whereas after autonomic blockade the correlation for sinus node measures did not show significant differences between the two groups of patients. These data suggest that transesophageal study influences the autonomic tone regulating the sinus node; however, it is not responsible for important variations in sinus node measures.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

The external laryngeal nerve: surgical and anatomic considerations. Report of 50 total thyroidectomies

This surgical anatomy study aimed to evaluate the possibility of identifying the external laryngeal nerve during thyroid surgery and the possible variations of nerves at risk. Fifty patients underwent total thyroidectomies during a period of 12 months. Using a neurostimulator, the distal motor branch of the external laryngeal nerve was searched. Electrical stimulation of a nervous branch aimed to provoke a global contraction of the cricothyroid in order to identify with certitude the external laryngeal nerve. The external laryngeal nerve was identified in 20% of cases. Its course was, with almost equal frequency, either (1) between the vessels of the superior thyroid pedicle or (2) superficial and anterior to the fascia of the cricothyroid muscle. The external laryngeal nerve is hard to find during thyroid surgery, even with a neurostimulator. It can be vulnerable during thyroid surgery but only in cases of anatomic variations. Searching for the nerve systematically during thyroid surgery does not seem to be useful. Several precautions when dissecting the superior pole of the thyroid gland seem to be necessary and sufficient to respect the external laryngeal nerve.
