Methods: In 10 dogs (weighing 18.8 plus/minus 3.5 kg) anesthetized with chloralose-urethane and mechanically ventilated with air, baseline hemodynamic and metabolic measurements were made. Then, 137 plus/minus 31 ml of 12 g% SFmetHb was infused into five dogs (SFmetHb group). Finally, the SFmetHb group and the control group (n = 5, no SFmetHb) received an intravenous potassium cyanide infusion (0.072 mg *symbol* kg sup -1 *symbol* min sup -1) for 20 min. Oxygen consumption (V with dot sub O2) was measured with a Datex Deltatrac (Datex Instruments, Helsinki, Finland) metabolic monitor and cardiac output (Q with dot T) was measured by pulmonary artery thermodilution.
Results: From baseline to cyanide infusion in the control group, Q with dot T decreased significantly (p < 0.05) from 2.9 plus/minus 0.8 to 1.5 plus/minus 0.4 l/min, mixed venous PCO2 (Pv with barCO2) tended to decrease from 35 plus/minus 4 to 23 plus/minus 2 mmHg, Pv with barO2 increased from 43 plus/minus 4 to 62 plus/minus 8 mmHg, V with dotO2 decreased from 93 plus/minus 8 to 64 plus/minus 19 ml/min, and lactate increased from 2.3 plus/minus 0.5 to 7.1 plus/minus 0.7 mM. In the SFmetHb group, cyanide infusion did not significantly change these variables. From baseline to infused cyanide, the increases in blood cyanide (4.8 plus/minus 1.0 to 452 plus/minus 97 micro Meter) and plasma thiocyanate cyanide (18 plus/minus 5 to 65 plus/minus 22 micro Meter) in the SFmetHb group were significantly greater than those increases in the control group. SFmetHb itself caused no physiologic changes, except small decreases in heart rate and Pv with barO2. Peak SFmetHb reached 7.7 plus/minus 1.0% of total hemoglobin. 相似文献
Methods: The concentration of NO in exhaled air was monitored by chemiluminescence in pentobarbital-anesthetized rabbits receiving mechanical ventilation by tracheostomy with graded positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP).
Results: Introduction of PEEP (2.5-15 cmH2 O) elicited dose-dependent and reproducible increments in exhaled NO and in arterial oxygen tension (PaO2). The increase in exhaled NO exhibited a biphasic pattern, with an initial peak followed by a partial reversal during the 4-min period at each level of PEEP. Thus, at a PEEP of 10 cmH sub 2 O, exhaled NO initially increased from 19 plus/minus 4 to 30 plus/minus 5 parts per billion (ppb) (P < 0.001, n = 9) and then decreased to 27 plus/minus 5 ppb (P < 0.005) at the end of the 4-min observation period. Simultaneously, PaO2 increased from 75 plus/minus 12 mmHg in the control situation to 105 plus/minus 11 mmHg (P < 0.05) at a PEEP of 10 cmH2 O. After bilateral vagotomy, including bilateral transection of the depressor nerves, the increase in exhaled NO in response to PEEP was significantly reduced (P < 0.01). Thus, after vagotomy, a PEEP of 10 cmH2 O elicited an increase in the concentration of exhaled NO from 13 plus/minus 3 to 17 plus/minus 3 ppb (n = 7). Vagotomy did not affect the baseline concentration of NO in exhaled air. The PEEP-induced increments in PaO2 were not affected by the NO synthase inhibitor L-Nomega-arginine-methylester (30 mg *symbol* kg sup -1 intravenously). In open-chest experiments, PEEP (10 cmH2 O) induced a reduction in cardiac output from 317 plus/minus 36 to 235 plus/minus 30 ml *symbol* min sup -1 and an increase in exhaled NO from 23 plus/minus 6 to 30 plus/minus 7 ppb (P < 0.05, n = 5). Reduction in cardiac output from 300 plus/minus 67 to 223 plus/minus 52 ml *symbol* min sup -1 by partial obstruction of the pulmonary artery did not significantly increase exhaled NO (from 23 plus/minus 7 to 25 plus/minus 6, difference not significant; n = 3). 相似文献
Methods: We studied 96 otherwise healthy children, 8-13 yr old, undergoing minor surgery. They received, at random, oral clonidine 2 or 4 micro gram *symbol* kg sup -1 or placebo 105 min before scheduled induction of anesthesia. Part I (n = 48, 16 per group): When hemodynamic parameters after insertion of a venous catheter had been confirmed to be stable, atropine was administered in incremental doses of 2.5, 2.5, and 5 micro gram *symbol* kg sup -1 every 2 min. The HR and blond pressure were recorded at 1-min intervals. Part II (n = 48, 16 per group): After the recording of baseline hemodynamic values, successive doses of atropine (5 micro gram *symbol* kg sup -1 every 2 min, to 40 micro gram *symbol* kg sup -1), were administered until HR increased by 20 beats *symbol* min sup -1. The HR and blood pressure were recorded at 1-min intervals.
Results: Part I: The increases in HR in response to a cumulative dose of atropine 10 micro gram *symbol* kg sup -1 were 33 plus/minus 3%, 16 plus/minus 3%, and 8 plus/minus 2% (mean plus/minus SEM) in children receiving placebo, clonidine 2 micro gram *symbol* kg sup -1, and clonidine 4 micro gram *symbol* kg sup -1, respectively (P < 0.05). Part II: The HR in the control group increased by more than 20 beats *symbol* min sup -1 in response to atropine 20 micro gram *symbol* kg sup -1 or less. In two patients in the clonidine 4 micro gram *symbol* kg sup -1 group, HR did not increase by 20 beats *symbol* min sup -1 even after 40 micro gram *symbol* kg sup -1 of atropine. 相似文献
Methods: Children were randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups before induction of anesthesia: group 1 received sevoflurane in air/oxygen 30% (n = 40), group 2 received sevoflurane in 70% N2 O/30% O2 (n = 40), and group 3 received halothane in 70% N2 O/30% O sub 2 (n = 40). Mapleson D or F circuits with fresh gas flows between 3 and 6 l/min were used. Whole blood was collected at induction and termination of anesthesia and at 1, 4, 6, 12, and 18 or 24 h postoperatively for determination of the [Fluorine sup -]. Plasma urea and creatinine concentrations were determined at induction of anesthesia and 18 or 24 h postoperatively.
Results: The mean (+/-SD) duration of sevoflurane anesthesia, 2.7+/-1.6 MAC *symbol* h (range 1.1-8.9 MAC *symbol* h), was similar to that of halothane, 2.5+/-1.1 MAC *symbol* h. The peak [Fluorine sup -] after sevoflurane was recorded at 1 h after termination of the anesthetic in all but three children (whose peak values were recorded between 4 and 6 h postanesthesia). The mean peak [Fluorine sup -] after sevoflurane was 15.8+/-4.6 micro Meter. The [Fluorine sup -] decreased to < 6.2 micro Meter by 24 h postanesthesia. Both the peak [Fluorine sup -] (r2 = 0.50) and the area under the plasma concentration of inorganic fluoride-time curve (r2 = 0.57) increased in parallel with the MAC *symbol* h of sevoflurane. The peak [Fluorine sup -] after halothane, 2.0+/-1.2 micro Meter, was significantly less than that after sevoflurane (P < 0.0001) and did not correlate with the duration of halothane anesthesia (MAC *symbol* h; r2 = 0.007). Plasma urea concentrations decreased 24 h after surgery compared with preoperative values for both anesthetics (P < 0.01), whereas plasma creatinine concentrations did not change significantly with either anesthetic. 相似文献
Methods: NO (800 ppm) was blended with nitrogen (Nitrogen2), delivered to the high-pressure air inlet of a Puritan-Bennett 7200ae or Siemens Servo 900C ventilator, and used to ventilate a test lung. The ventilator settings were varied: minute ventilation (VE) from 5 to 25 l/min, inspired Oxygen2 fraction (FIO2) from 0.24 to 0.87, and [NO] from 10 to 80 ppm. The experiment was then repeated with air instead of Nitrogen2 as the dilution gas. The effect of pulmonary residence time on NO2 production was examined at test lung volumes of 0.5-4.0 l, V with dotE of 5-25 l/min, FIO2 of 0.24-0.87, and [NO] of 10-80 ppm. The inspiratory gas mixture was sampled 20 cm from the Y-piece and from within the test lung. NO and NO sub 2 were measured by chemiluminescence. The rate constant (k) for the conversion of NO to NO2 was determined from the relation 1/[NO]1 1/[NO]0 k x [Oxygen2] x t, where t = residence time.
Results: No NO2 was detected during any trial with V with dot sub E 20 or 25 l/min. With Nitrogen2 dilution and the Puritan- Bennett 7200ae, NO2 (less or equal to 1 ppm) was detected only at a V with dotE of 5 l/min with an FIO2 of 0.87 and [NO] greater or equal to 70 ppm. In contrast, [NO2] values were greater with the Servo 900C ventilator than with the Puritan-Bennett 7200ae at similar settings. When NO was diluted with air, clinically important [NO sub 2] values were measured with both ventilators at high [NO] and FI sub O2. Rate constants were 1.46 x 109 ppm2 *symbol* min sup -1 when NO was mixed with Nitrogen2, 1.17 x 108 ppm sup - 2 *symbol* min sup -1 when NO was blended with air, and 1.44 x 109 ppm sup -2 *symbol* min sup -1 in the test lung. 相似文献
Methods: New Zealand White rabbits, anesthetized with fentanyl and diazepam, were maintained during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) at a brain temperature of 17 degrees Celsius with alpha-stat (group A, n = 9) or pH-stat (group B, n = 9) management. Measurements of brain temperature, systemic hemodynamics, arterial and cerebral venous blood gases and oxygen content, cerebral blood flow (CBF) (radiolabeled microspheres), and cerebral metabolic rate for oxygen (CMRO2) (Fick) were made in each animal at 65 and 95 min of CPB. To control for arterial pressure and CBF differences between techniques, additional rabbits underwent CPB at 17 degrees Celsius. In group C (alpha-stat, n = 8), arterial pressure was decreased with nitroglycerin to values observed with pH-stat management. In group D (pH-stat, n = 8), arterial pressure was increased with angiotensin II to values observed with alpha-stat management. In groups C and D, CBF and CMRO2 were determined before (65 min of CPB) and after (95 min of CPB) arterial pressure manipulation.
Results: In groups A (alpha-stat) and B (pH-stat), arterial pressure; hemispheric CBF (44 plus/minus 17 vs. 21 plus/minus 4 ml *symbol* 100 g sup -1 *symbol* min sup -1 [median plus/minus quartile deviation]; P = 0.017); and CMRO2 (0.54 plus/minus 0.13 vs. 0.32 plus/minus 0.10 ml Oxygen2 *symbol* 100 g sup -1 *symbol* min sup -1; P = 0.0015) were greater in alpha-stat than in pH-stat animals, respectively. As a result of arterial pressure manipulation, in groups C (alpha-stat) and D (pH-stat) neither arterial pressure (75 plus/minus 2 vs. 78 plus/minus 2 mm Hg) nor hemispheric CBF (40 plus/minus 10 vs. 48 plus/minus 6 ml *symbol* 100 g sup -1 *symbol* min sup -1; P = 0.21) differed between alpha-stat and pH-stat management, respectively. Nevertheless, CMRO2 was greater in alpha-stat than in pH-stat animals (0.71 plus/minus 0.10 vs. 0.45 plus/minus 0.10 ml Oxygen2 *symbol* 100 g sup -1 *symbol* min sup -1, respectively; P = 0.002). 相似文献
Methods: The authors prospectively randomized 24 children who met American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status I or II criteria, were aged 6 months-6 yr, and were undergoing cranial magnetic resonance imaging into three groups. After anesthesia induction, in the alveolar recruitment strategy (ARS) group, an alveolar recruitment maneuver was performed by manually ventilating the lungs with a peak airway pressure of 40 cm H2O and a PEEP of 15 cm H2O for 10 breaths. PEEP was then reduced to and kept at 5 cm H2O. The continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) group received 5 cm H2O of continuous positive airway pressure without recruitment. The zero end-expiratory pressure (ZEEP) group received neither PEEP nor the recruitment maneuver. All patients breathed spontaneously during the procedure. After cranial magnetic resonance imaging, thoracic magnetic resonance imaging was performed.
Results: The atelectatic volume (median, first and third standard quartiles) detected in the ZEEP group was 1.25 (0.75-4.56) cm3 in the right lung and 4.25 (3.2-13.9) cm3 in the left lung. The CPAP group had 9.5 (3.1-23.7) cm3 of collapsed lung tissue in the right lung and 8.8 (5.3-28.5) cm3 in the left lung. Only one patient in the ARS group presented an atelectasis of less than 2 cm3. An uneven distribution of the atelectasis was observed within each lung and between the right and left lungs, with a clear predominance of the left basal paradiaphragmatic regions. 相似文献
Methods: Seventy-seven studies were conducted in 75 patients. Anesthesia was induced with either 2.5 mg/kg propofol, 0.4 mg/kg etomidate, or 5 mg/kg thiopental. Respiratory resistance was measured at 2 min after induction.
Results: Respiratory resistance at 2 min was 8.1+/-3.4 cmH sub 2 O *symbol* l sup -1 *symbol* s (mean+/-SD) for patients receiving propofol versus 11.3+/-5.3 for patients receiving etomidate and 12.3+/-7.9 for patients receiving thiopental (P less than or equal to 0.05 for propofol vs. either etomidate or thiopental). 相似文献
Methods: In ten patients undergoing knee surgery, catheters were placed in the femoral vein of the limb operated on for collection of local blood and in a vein of the arm for sampling of systemic blood. Tourniquet-induced limb exsanguination was induced for about 2 h. After tourniquet release (reperfusion), blood samples were collected during a 2-h period for measurement of H2 O2, xanthine oxidase activity, xanthine, uric acid (UA), glutathione, and glutathione disulfide.
Results: At 30 s of reperfusion, H2 O2 concentrations increased ([nearly equal] 90%) from 133+/-5 to 248+/-8 nmol *symbol* ml sup -1 (P < 0.05) in local blood samples, but no change was evident in systemic blood. However, in both local and systemic blood, xanthine oxidase activity increased [nearly equal] 90% (1.91+/- 0.07 to 3.93+/-0.41 and 2.19+/-0.07 to 3.57+/- 0.12 nmol UA *symbol* ml sup -1 *symbol* min sup -1, respectively) as did glutathione concentrations (1.27+/-0.04 to 2.69+/-0.14 and 1.27+/-0.03 to 2.43+/-0.13 micro mol *symbol* ml sup -1, respectively). At 5 min reperfusion, in local blood, H2 O2 concentrations and xanthine oxidase activity peaked at 796+/-38 nmol *symbol* ml sup -1 ([nearly equal] 500%) and 11.69+/-1.46 nmol UA *symbol* ml sup -1 *symbol* min sup -1 ([nearly equal] 520%), respectively. In local blood, xanthine and UA increased from 1.49 +/-0.07 to 8.36+/-0.33 nmol *symbol* ml sup -1 and 2.69 +/-0.16 to 3.90+/-0.18 micro mol *symbol* ml sup -1, respectively, whereas glutathione and glutathione disulfide increased to 5.13+/-0.36 micro mol *symbol* ml sup -1 and 0.514+/- 0.092 nmol *symbol* ml sup -1, respectively. In systemic blood, xanthine oxidase activity peaked at 4.75+/-0.20 UA nmol *symbol* ml sup -1 *symbol* min sup -1. At 10 min reperfusion, local blood glutathione and UA peaked at 7.08+/-0.46 micro mol *symbol* ml sup -1 and 4.67 +/-0.26 micro mol *symbol* ml sup -1, respectively, while the other metabolites decreased significantly toward pretourniquet levels. From 20 to 120 min, most metabolites returned to pretourniquet levels; however, local and systemic blood xanthine oxidase activity remained increased 3.76+/-0.29 and 3.57+/-0.37 nmol UA *symbol* ml sup -1 *symbol* min sup -1, respectively. Systemic blood H2 O2 was never increased during the study. During the burst period ([nearly equal] 5-10 min), local blood H2 O2 concentrations and xanthine oxidase activities were highly correlated (r = 0.999). 相似文献
Methods: Twenty-five dogs were anesthetized with enflurane. One group received incremental infusion rates of remifentanil from 0.055 to 5.5 micro gram *symbol* kg sup -1 *symbol* min sup -1. A second group received constant rate infusions of remifentanil of 1.0 micro gram *symbol* kg sup -1 *symbol* min sup -1 for 6-8 h. Enflurane MAC was measured before, hourly during remifentanil infusion, and at the end of the experiment after naloxone administration. A third group received alternating infusions of 0.5 and 1.0 micro gram *symbol* kg sup -1 *symbol* min sup -1 with MAC determinations made 30 min after each change in the infusion rate. Heart rate, mean arterial pressure, and remifentanil blood concentrations were measured during MAC determinations.
Results: Enflurane MAC was reduced up to a maximum of 63.0+/- 10.4% (mean+/-SD) in a dose-dependent manner by remifentanil infusion. The dose producing a 50% reduction in the enflurane MAC was calculated as 0.72 micro gram *symbol* kg sup -1 *symbol* min sup -1 and the corresponding blood concentration was calculated as 9.2 ng/ml. Enflurane MAC reduction remained stable during continuous, constant rate infusions for periods of 6-8 h without any signs of tolerance. Recovery of enflurane MAC to baseline occurred in 30 min (earliest measurement) after stopping the remifentanil infusion. 相似文献
Methods: Hemodynamics, oxygen transport, and blood lactate concentrations were compared in ten pigs with normal hematocrit (33 +/-4%), and ten hemodiluted pigs (hematocrit 11+/-1%; mean+/-SD) anesthetized with ketamine-fentanyl-pancuronium during stepwise decreases in inspired oxygen fraction (FIO2; 1.0, 0.35, 0.21, 0.15, 0.10, 0.05).
Results: Median systemic oxygen delivery (DO2 SY) became critical (the DO2 SY value when arterial lactate exceeded 2.0 mmol *symbol* l sup -1) at 10.4 ml *symbol* kg sup -1 min sup -1 (range 6.9-16.1) in hemodiluted animals and at 11.8 ml *symbol* kg sup -1 *symbol* min sup -1 (5.9-32.2) in animals with normal hematocrits (NS). The relationship between mixed venous oxygen saturation and arterial lactate values was less consistent and median critical mixed venous oxygen saturation was higher (P < 0.05) in the hemodiluted group (35%, range 21-64), than in animals with normal hematocrits (21%, 7-68%). In animals with normal hematocrit, decreasing FIO2 from 1.0 to 0.10 resulted in a decrease in DO2 SY from 26.3+/-9.1 to 9.3 +/-3.9 ml *symbol* kg sup -1 *symbol* min sup -1 (P < 0.01). Cardiac output did not change, systemic oxygen extraction ratio increased from 0.23+/-0.08 to 0.68+/-0.13 (P < 0.01), and arterial lactate from 0.9+/-0.2 to 3.4+/-3.0 mmol *symbol* l sup -1 (P < 0.05). Cardiac venous blood flow, as measured by retrograde thermodilution, increased from 5.7+/-2.9 to 12.6+/-5.7 ml *symbol* kg sup -1 *symbol* min sup -1 (P < 0.01). When FIO2 was reduced to 0.05, three animals became hypotensive and died. In the second group, hemodilution increased cardiac output and systemic oxygen extraction ratio (P < 0.01). Cardiac venous blood flow increased from 4.1 +/-1.7 to 9.8+/-5.1 ml *symbol* kg sup -1 *symbol* min sup -1 (P < 0.01), and cardiac venous oxygen saturation from 22+/- 5 to 41+/-10% (P < 0.01). During the subsequent hypoxia, cardiac output and DO2 SY were maintained until FIO2 = 0.15 (DO2 SY = 10.1+/-3.3 ml *symbol* kg sup -1 *symbol* min sup -1). Cardiac venous blood flow was then 18.5+/-10.7 ml *symbol* kg sup -1 *symbol* min sup -1 (P < 0.01), but in spite of this, myocardial lactate production occurred. At FIO2 = 0.10 (DO2 SY = 7.7 +/-3.0 ml *symbol* kg sup -1 *symbol* min sup -1), arterial lactate concentration increased to 8.5+/-2.3 mmol *symbol* l sup -1 (P < 0.01), and most animals became hypotensive. All hemodiluted animals died when FIO2 was decreased to 0.05 (P < 0.01 when compared to animals with normal hematocrit). 相似文献
