Methods: LCGU, LCBF, and their overall means were measured in Sprague-Dawley rats (8 groups, n = 6 each) during sevoflurane and isoflurane anesthesia, 1 and 2 MAC, and in conscious control animals (2 groups, n = 6 each) using the autoradiographic 2-[(14) C]deoxy-D-glucose and 4-iodo-N-methyl-[(14) C]antipyrine methods.
Results: During anesthesia, mean cerebral glucose utilization was decreased: control, 56 +/- 5 [micro sign]mol [middle dot] 100 g-1 [middle dot]-1; 1 MAC isoflurane, 32 +/- 4 [micro sign]mol [middle dot] 100 g-1 [middle dot] min-1 (-43%); 1 MAC sevoflurane, 37 +/- 5 [micro sign]mol [middle dot] 100 g-1 [middle dot] min-1 (-34%); 2 MAC isoflurane, 23 +/- 3 [micro sign]mol [middle dot] 100 g-1 [middle dot] min-1 (-58%); 2 MAC sevoflurane, 23 +/- 5 [micro sign]mol [middle dot] 100 g-1 [middle dot] min-1 (-59%). Local analysis showed a reduction in LCGU in the majority of the 40 brain regions analyzed. Mean cerebral blood flow was increased as follows: control, 93 +/- 8 ml [middle dot] 100 g-1 [middle dot] min-1; 1 MAC isoflurane, 119 +/- 19 ml [middle dot] 100 g-1 [middle dot] min-1 (+28%); 1 MAC sevoflurane, 104 +/- 15 ml [middle dot] 100 g-1 [middle dot] min-1 (+12%); 2 MAC isoflurane, 149 +/- 17 ml [middle dot] 100 g-1 [middle dot] min-1 (+60%); 2 MAC sevoflurane, 118 +/- 21 ml [middle dot] 100 g-1 [middle dot] min-1 (+27%). LCBF was increased in most brain structures investigated. Correlation coefficients obtained for the relationship between LCGU and LCBF were as follows: control, 0.93; 1 MAC isoflurane, 0.89; 2 MAC isoflurane, 0.71; 1 MAC sevoflurane, 0.83; 2 MAC sevoflurane, 0.59). 相似文献
Methods: Low-frequency pulmonary impedance data were collected in open-chest rats under baseline conditions and during three consecutive intravenous infusions of methacholine (32 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1) while the animals were anesthetized with intravenous pentobarbital (control group). Methacholine challenges were performed in four other groups of rats, first during intravenous anesthesia and then repeated during the inhalation of halothane, isoflurane, sevoflurane, or desflurane at concentrations of 1 and 2 minimum alveolar concentration (MAC). Airway resistance and inertance, parenchymal damping, and elastance were estimated from the impedance data by model fitting.
Results: The methacholine-induced increases in airway resistance during intravenous pentobarbital anesthesia (204 +/- 53%) were markedly and significantly (P < 0.005) reduced by 1-MAC doses of halothane (80 +/- 48%), isoflurane (112 +/- 59%), sevoflurane (68 +/- 34%), and desflurane (96 +/- 34%), with no significant difference between the gases applied. Increasing the concentration to 2 MAC did not lead to any significant further protection against the increase in airway resistance. 相似文献
Methods: The regional cerebral metabolic rate of glucose (rcMRGlu) was sequentially assessed in two groups of six volunteers each, using 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose as tracer. In the xenon group, rcMRGlu was determined at baseline and during general anesthesia induced with propofol and maintained with 1 minimum alveolar concentration xenon. In the control group, rcMRGlu was measured using the identical study protocol but without administration of xenon. rcMRGlu was assessed after the plasma concentration of propofol had decreased to subanesthetic levels (< 1.0 [mu]g/ml). rcMRGlu was quantified in 10 cerebral volumes of interest. In addition, voxel-wise changes in rcMRGlu were analyzed using statistical parametric mapping.
Results: Xenon reduced whole-brain metabolic rate of glucose by 26 +/- 7% (from 43 +/- 5 [mu]mol [middle dot] 100 g-1 [middle dot] min-1 to 31 +/- 3 [mu]mol [middle dot] 100 g-1 [middle dot] min-1; P < 0.005) and significantly decreased rcMRGlu in all volumes of interest compared with the control group receiving propofol only. Voxel-based analysis revealed metabolic depression within the orbitofrontal, frontomesial, temporomesial, occipital, dorsolateral frontal, and lateral temporal cortices and thalami. No increases in rcMRGlu were detected during xenon anesthesia. 相似文献
Methods: Twenty Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) for 2 h during normothermic conditions followed by 5 h of reperfusion during hypothermia (33[degrees]C). Animals were artificially ventilated with either [alpha]- (n = 10) or pH-stat management (n = 10). CBF was analyzed 7 h after induction of MCAO by iodo[14C]antipyrine autoradiography. Cerebral infarct volume and cerebral edema were measured by high-contrast silver infarct staining (SIS).
Results: Compared with the [alpha]-stat regimen, pH-stat management reduced cerebral infarct volume (98.3 +/- 33.2 mm3vs. 53.6 +/- 21.6 mm3;P >= 0.05 mean +/- SD) and cerebral edema (10.6 +/- 4.0%vs. 3.1 +/- 2.4%;P >= 0.05). Global CBF during pH-stat management exceeded that of [alpha]-stat animals (69.5 +/- 12.3 ml [middle dot] 100 g-1 [middle dot] min-1vs. 54.7 +/- 13.3 ml [middle dot] 100 g-1 [middle dot] min-1;P >= 0.05). The regional CBF of the ischemic hemisphere was 62.1 +/- 11.2 ml [middle dot] 100 g-1 [middle dot] min-1 in the pH-stat group versus 48.2 +/- 7.2 ml [middle dot] 100 g-1 [middle dot] min-1 in the [alpha]-stat group (P >= 0.05). 相似文献
Methods: Five male volunteers each underwent two positron emission tomography scans. One scan assessed awake-baseline metabolism, and the other scan assessed metabolism during halothane anesthesia titrated to the point of unresponsiveness (mean +/- SD, expired = 0.7 +/- 0.2%). Scans were obtained using a GE2048 scanner and the F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose technique. Regions of interest were analyzed for changes in both absolute and relative glucose metabolism. In addition, relative changes in metabolism were evaluated using statistical parametric mapping.
Results: Awake whole-brain metabolism averaged 6.3 +/- 1.2 mg [middle dot] 100 g-1 [middle dot] min-1 (mean +/- SD). Halothane reduced metabolism 40 +/- 9% to 3.7 +/- 0.6 mg [middle dot] 100 g-1 [middle dot] min-1 (P
Methods: Twenty dogs were chronically instrumented for measurement of hemodynamic parameters. Splanchnic blood flow was determined using colored microspheres. Transthoracic echocardiographic examinations were performed to measure cardiac output. In each animal, two experiments were performed in a random order: experiment 1 was determination of splanchnic blood flow before and 5 min after intravenous administration of naloxone (63 [mu]g/kg), and experiment 2 was determination of splanchnic blood flow before and 5 min after administration of naloxone methiodide (63 [mu]g/kg), which does not cross the blood-brain barrier.
Results: Naloxone, but not naloxone methiodide, significantly increased blood flow to the stomach (from 0.41 +/- 0.022 to 0.9 +/- 0.016 # ml [middle dot] g-1 [middle dot] min-1 with naloxone), jejunum (from 0.31 +/- 0.024 to 0.83 +/- 0.083 # ml [middle dot] g-1 [middle dot] min-1 with naloxone), colon (from 0.41 +/- 0.057 to 0.68 +/- 0.008 # ml [middle dot] g-1 [middle dot] min-1 with naloxone), spleen (from 1.45 +/- 0.21 to 2.13 +/- 0.25 # ml [middle dot] g-1 [middle dot] min-1 with naloxone), pancreas (from 0.97 +/- 0.021 to 1.25 +/- 0.005 # ml [middle dot] g-1 [middle dot] min-1 with naloxone), and kidneys (from 3.24 +/- 0.108 to 5.31 +/- 0.26 # ml [middle dot] g-1 [middle dot] min-1 with naloxone), without altering cardiac output or arterial blood pressure in conscious dogs. There were no differences in the hemodynamics or cardiac output between the two experiments. Data are presented as mean +/- SD. 相似文献
Methods: After institutional approval and informed patient consent were obtained, 23 patients scheduled to undergo supratentorial tumor surgery were randomly assigned to remifentanil or fentanyl infusion groups in a double-blinded manner. Midazolam, thiopental, and pancuronium induction was followed by equipotent narcotic loading infusions of remifentanil (1 [micro sign]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1) or fentanyl (2 [micro sign]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1) for 5-10 min. Patients were ventilated with 2:1 nitrous oxide-oxygen, and opioid rates were reduced and then titrated to a stable hemodynamic effect. After dural exposure, CBF was measured by the intravenous133 xenon technique at normocapnia and hypocapnia. Reactivity of CBF to carbon dioxide was calculated as the absolute increase in CBF per millimeters of mercury increase in the partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2). Data were analyzed by repeated-measures analysis of variance, unpaired Student's t tests, or contingency analysis.
Results: In the remifentanil group (n = 10), CBF decreased from 36 +/- 11 to 27 +/- 8 ml [middle dot] 100 g-1 [middle dot] min-1 as PaCO2 decreased from 33 +/- 5 to 25 +/- 2 mmHg. In the fentanyl group (n = 8), CBF decreased from 37 +/- 11 to 25 +/- 6 ml [middle dot] 100 g-1 [middle dot] min-1 as PaCO2 decreased from 34 +/- 3 to 25 +/- 3 mmHg. Absolute carbon dioxide reactivity was preserved with both agents: 1 +/- 1.2 ml [middle dot] 100 g-1 [middle dot] min-1 [middle dot] mmHg-1 for remifentanil and 1.5 +/- 0.5 ml [middle dot] 100 g-1 [middle dot] min-1 [middle dot] mmHg-1 for fentanyl (P = 0.318). 相似文献
Methods: Forty-one adults (aged 20-60 yr) and 24 children (aged 2-10 yr) undergoing lower abdominal surgery were studied. In adults, anesthesia induction was with sevoflurane during remifentanil infusion, whereas in children remifentanil administration was started after induction with sevoflurane. After intubation, sevoflurane was administered in 100% O2 and was adjusted to an ET% of 1 MAC-awake corrected for age at least 15 min before surgery. Patients were randomized to receive remifentanil at a rate ranging from 0.05 to 0.35 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1 for at least 20 min before surgery. At the beginning of surgery, only the skin incision was performed, and the somatic and autonomic responses were observed. The somatic response was defined as positive with any gross movement of extremity, and the autonomic response was deemed positive with any increase in heart rate or mean arterial pressure equal to or more than 10% of preincision values. Using logistic regression, the IR50 and IRBAR50 were determined in both groups of patients and compared with unpaired Student t test. A P value less than 0.05 was considered significant.
Results: The IR50 +/- SD was 0.10 +/- 0.02 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1 in adults and 0.22 +/- 0.03 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1 in children (P < 0.001). The IRBAR50 +/- SD was 0.11 +/- 0.02 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1 in adults and 0.27 +/- 0.06 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1 in children (P < 0.001). 相似文献
Methods: Ten healthy male volunteers with a laryngeal mask for artificial ventilation received remifentanil at an infusion rate of 2 and 4 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1 under normocapnia, hypocapnia, and hypercapnia. Stable xenon-enhanced computed tomography and transcranial Doppler ultrasonography of the left middle cerebral artery were used to assess rCBF and mean CBFv, respectively. If required, blood pressure was maintained within baseline values with intravenous phenylephrine to avoid confounding effects of altered hemodynamics.
Results: Hemodynamic parameters were maintained constant over time. Remifentanil infusion at 2 and 4 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1 significantly decreased rCBF and mean CBFv. Both rCBF and mean CBFv increased as the arterial carbon dioxide tension increased from hypocapnia to hypercapnia, indicating that cerebrovascular reactivity remained intact. The average slopes of rCBF reactivity were 0.56 +/- 0.27 and 0.49 +/- 0.28 ml [middle dot] 100 g-1 [middle dot] min-1 [middle dot] mmHg-1 for 2 and 4 [mu]g[middle dot]kg-1[middle dot]min-1 remifentanil, respectively (relative change in percent/mmHg: 1.9 +/- 0.8 and 1.6 +/- 0.5, respectively). The average slopes for mean CBFv reactivity were 1.61 +/- 0.95 and 1.54 +/- 0.83 cm [middle dot] s-1 [middle dot] mmHg-1 for 2 and 4 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1 remifentanil, respectively (relative change in percent/mmHg: 1.86 +/- 0.59 and 1.79 +/- 0.59, respectively). Preanesthesia and postanesthesia values of rCBF and mean CBFv did not differ. 相似文献
Methods: Potency was determined using a single-dose (20, 26, 33, or 40 [mu]g/kg) technique. Neuromuscular block was assessed by monitoring the electromyographic response of the adductor pollicis to supramaximal train-of-four stimulation of the ulnar nerve at 2 Hz.
Results: Least-squares linear regression analysis of the log-probit transformation of dose and maximal response yielded median effective dose (ED50) and 95% effective dose (ED95) values for infants (29 +/- 3 [mu]g/kg and 43 +/- 9 [mu]g/kg, respectively) that were similar to those for children (29 +/- 2 [mu]g/kg and 47 +/- 7 [mu]g/kg, respectively). The mean infusion rate necessary to maintain 90-99% neuromuscular block during the first hour in infants (1.9 +/- 0.4 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1; range: 1.3-2.5 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1) was similar to that in children (2.0 +/- 0.5 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1; range: 1.3-2.9 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1). 相似文献
Methods: In 10 volunteers, the authors studied the effect of antioxidants (intravenous ascorbic acid and oral [alpha]-tocopherol) on the reduction by isoflurane (0.12% end-tidal concentration) of the AHR on a 3-min isocapnic hypoxic stimulus (hemoglobin oxygen saturation 86 +/- 4%). All subjects participated in three separate sessions in which the effects of the antioxidants (session 1), placebo (session 2), and sham isoflurane plus antioxidants (session 3) were tested on the (sham) isoflurane-induced effect on the AHR.
Results: Isoflurane reduced the acute hypoxic response from 0.82 +/- 0.41 l [middle dot] min-1 [middle dot] %-1 to 0.49 +/- 0.23 l [middle dot] min-1 [middle dot] %-1 and from 0.89 +/- 0.43 l [middle dot] min-1 [middle dot] %-1 to 0.48 +/- 0.28 l [middle dot] min-1 [middle dot] %-1 in sessions 1 and 2, respectively (mean +/- SD; P < 0.05 vs. control). This reduction of the AHR was completely reversed by antioxidants (AHR = 0.76 +/- 0.39 l [middle dot] min-1 [middle dot] %-1; not significantly different from control, session 1) but not by placebo in session 2 (AHR = 0.50 +/- 0.30 l [middle dot] min-1 [middle dot] %-1; P < 005 vs. control). Sham isoflurane or antioxidants per se had no effect on the hypoxic response. 相似文献
Methods: Thirty-six rats were anesthetized with isoflurane (1 minimum alveolar concentration) and artificially ventilated to maintain normal arterial carbon dioxide partial pressure (p H-stat). Pericranial temperature was maintained as normothermic (37.5[degrees]C, n = 12) or was reduced to 35[degrees]C (n = 12) or 32[degrees]C (n = 12). Pericranial temperature was maintained constant for 60 min until LCBF or LCGU were measured by autoradiography. Twelve conscious rats served as normothermic controls.
Results: Compared with conscious animals, mean CBF remained unchanged during normothermic anesthesia. Mean CBF significantly increased during mild hypothermia but was unchanged during moderate hypothermia. During normothermic anesthesia, mean CGU was 45% lower than in conscious controls (P < 0.05). No further CGU reduction was found during mild hypothermia, whereas CGU further decreased during moderate hypothermia (48%;P < 0.05). Local analysis showed a linear LCBF/LCGU relationship in conscious (r = 0.94) and anesthetized (r = 0.94) normothermic animals, as well as in both hypothermic groups (35[degrees]C: r = 0.92; 32[degrees]C: r = 0.95;P < 0.05). The LCBF-to-LCGU ratio increased from 1.4 (conscious controls) to 2.4 (normothermic isoflurane) and 3.6 ml/[mu]mol (mild and moderate hypothermia, P < 0.05). 相似文献
Methods: Part I study: 54 patients undergoing total abdominal hysterectomy were randomly divided into two groups (n = 27 per group). The patients in the control group received 0.9% sodium chloride solution, whereas the patients in the magnesium group received magnesium (50 mg/kg as a bolus, then 8 mg [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] h-1). To maintain mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) at baseline value, the propofol infusion rate was changed when the MAP or the HR changed. The amount of propofol infused excluding the bolus dosage was divided by patient's body weight and total infusion time. Part II study: Another 20 patients were randomly divided into two groups (n = 10 per group). When the MAP and HR had been maintained at baseline value and the propofol infusion rate had been maintained at 80 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1 (magnesium group) and 160 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1 (control group), bispectral index (BIS) values were measured.
Results: Part I: The mean propofol infusion rate in the magnesium group (81.81 +/- 13.09 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1) was significantly less than in the control group (167.57 +/- 47.27). Part II: BIS values in the control group (40.70 +/- 3.89) were significantly less than those in the magnesium group (57.80 +/- 7.32). 相似文献
Methods: Eight normothermic (38.0 +/- 0.5[degrees]C) and eight hypothermic (32.0 +/- 0.5[degrees]C) pigs anesthetized with midazolam-fentanyl-vecuronium-isoflurane (0.5% inspired concentration) were subjected to stepwise normovolemic hemodilution (hematocrit, 15%, 10%, 7%, 5%, 3%). Critical hemoglobin concentration (HgbCRIT) and critical oxygen delivery (DO2CRIT), i.e., the hemoglobin concentration (Hgb) and oxygen delivery (DO2) at which oxygen consumption (VO2, independently measured by indirect calorimetry) was no longer sustained, and Hgb at the moment of death, defined prospectively as the point when VO2 decreased below 40 ml/min, were used to assess the tolerance of the two groups to progressive isovolemic anemia.
Results: At hematocrits of 15% and 10% (Hgb, 47 and 31 g/l), VO2 was maintained in both groups by an increase (P < 0.001) in cardiac output (CO) and extraction ratio (ER;P < 0.001) with unchanged mean arterial lactate concentration (Lart). At hematocrit of 7% (Hgb, 22 g/l), all normothermic but no hypothermic animals had DO2-dependent VO2. No normothermic and three hypothermic animals survived to 5% hematocrit (Hgb, 15 g/l), and none survived to 3%. HgbCRIT was 23 +/- 2 g/l and 19 +/- 6 g/l (mean +/- SD) in normothermic and hypothermic animals, respectively (P = 0.053). Hgb at death was 19 +/- 3 g/l versus 14 +/- 4 g/l (P = 0.015), and DO2CRIT was 8.7 +/- 1.7 versus 4.6 +/- 0.8 ml [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1 (P < 0.001). 相似文献
Methods: With institutional review board approval and written informed consent, 120 adult patients scheduled to undergo minor orthopedic surgery were randomized to receive a propofol-remifentanil anesthetic controlled by Narcotrend, by BIS(R), or solely by clinical parameters. Anesthesia was induced with 0.4 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1 remifentanil and a propofol target-controlled infusion at 3.5 [mu]g/ml. After intubation, remifentanil was reduced to 0.2 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1, whereas the propofol infusion was adjusted according to clinical parameters or to the following target values: during maintenance to D0 (Narcotrend) or 50 (BIS(R)); 15 min before the end of surgery to C1 (Narcotrend) or 60 (BIS(R)). Recovery times were recorded by a blinded investigator, and average normalized propofol consumption was calculated from induction and maintenance doses.
Results: The groups were comparable for demographic data, duration of anesthesia, and mean remifentanil dosages. Compared with standard practice, patients with Narcotrend or BIS(R) monitoring needed significantly less propofol (standard practice, 6.8 +/- 1.2 mg [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] h-1vs. Narcotrend, 4.5 +/- 1.1 mg [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] h-1 or BIS(R), 4.8 +/- 1.0 mg [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] h-1;P < 0.001), opened their eyes earlier (9.3 +/- 5.2 vs. 3.4 +/- 2.2 or 3.5 +/- 2.9 min), and were extubated sooner (9.7 +/- 5.3 vs. 3.7 +/- 2.2 or 4.1 +/- 2.9 min). 相似文献
Methods: Sixty-one [alpha]-chloralose-anesthetized rabbits were instrumented for measurement of left ventricular (LV) pressure (tip-manometer), cardiac output (ultrasonic flowprobe), and myocardial infarct size (triphenyltetrazolium staining). All rabbits were subjected to 30 min of occlusion of a major coronary artery and 2 h of subsequent reperfusion. Rabbits of all six groups underwent a treatment period consisting of either no intervention for 35 min (control group, n = 11) or 15 min of isoflurane inhalation (1 minimum alveolar concentration end-tidal concentration) followed by a 10-min washout period (isoflurane group, n = 12). Four additional groups received the radical scavenger N-(2-mercaptoproprionyl)glycine (MPG; 1 mg [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1) or Mn(III)tetrakis(4-benzoic acid)porphyrine chloride (MnTBAP; 100 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1) during the treatment period with (isoflurane + MPG; n = 11; isoflurane + MnTBAP, n = 9) or without isoflurane inhalation (MPG, n = 11; MnTBAP, n = 7).
Results: Hemodynamic baseline values were not significantly different between groups (LV pressure, 97 +/- 17 mmHg [mean +/- SD]; cardiac output, 228 +/- 61 ml/min). During coronary artery occlusion, LV pressure was reduced to 91 +/- 17% of baseline and cardiac output to 94 +/- 21%. After 2 h of reperfusion, recovery of LV pressure and cardiac output was not significantly different between groups (LV pressure, 83 +/- 20%; cardiac output, 86 +/- 23% of baseline). Infarct size was reduced from 49 +/- 17% of the area at risk in controls to 29 +/- 19% in the isoflurane group (P = 0.04). MPG and MnTBAP themselves had no effect on infarct size (MPG, 50 +/- 14%; MnTBAP, 56 +/- 15%), but both abolished the preconditioning effect of isoflurane (isoflurane + MPG, 50 +/- 24%, P = 0.02; isoflurane + MnTBAP, 55 +/- 10%, P = 0.001). 相似文献
Methods: Ovalbumin-sensitized anaphylactic shock rats (n = 11) were compared to nicardipine-induced hypotension rats (n = 12) for systemic hemodynamics, Ptio2, sympathetic nervous system activation, skeletal muscle blood flow, and interstitial lactate and pyruvate concentrations using combined microdialysis and polarographic Clark-type oxygen probes.
Results: In both groups, the time course and the magnitude of arterial hypotension were similar. The ovalbumin group but not the nicardipine group displayed decreased skeletal muscle blood flow (from 45 +/- 6.2 ml [middle dot] 100 g-1[middle dot]min-1 to 24.3 +/- 5 ml[middle dot]100 g-1[middle dot]min-1; P < 0.0001) and Ptio2 values (from 42 +/- 5 to 5 +/- 2; P < 0.0001). The ovalbumin group had more intense sympathetic nervous system activation with higher plasma epinephrine and interstitial norepinephrine concentrations. For the ovalbumin group, there was skeletal muscle anaerobic metabolism (lactate concentration increased from 0.446 +/- 0.105 to 1.741 +/- 0.459 mm; P < 0.05) and substrate depletion (pyruvate concentration decreased from 0.034 +/- 0.01 mm to 0.006 +/- 0.002 mm; P < 0.05) leading to increased interstitial lactate/pyruvate ratios (from 17 +/- 6 to 311 +/- 115; P < 0.05). 相似文献
Methods: Nine infants undergoing elective magnetic resonance imaging of the brain were studied. Head position was standardized. Spin echo magnetic resonance images of the airway were acquired at the level of the soft palate, base of the tongue, and tip of the epiglottis. Four sets of images were acquired in sequence: (1) during light propofol anesthesia at an infusion rate of 80 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1, (2) after increasing the depth of propofol anesthesia by administering a bolus dose (2.0 mg/kg) and increasing the infusion rate to 240 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1, (3) during continued infusion of 240 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1 propofol and application of 10 cm H2O CPAP, and (4) after removal of CPAP and continued infusion of 240 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1 propofol.
Results: Increasing depth of propofol anesthesia decreased airway caliber at each anatomical level, predominantly due to anteroposterior narrowing. Application of CPAP completely reversed the propofol-induced decrease in airway caliber, primarily by increasing the transverse dimension. 相似文献
Methods: Sixteen patients undergoing colorectal surgery received either general anesthesia and epidural blockade with local anesthetic (n = 8) or general anesthesia alone (control, n = 8). Glucose and protein kinetics were assessed by stable isotope tracer technique ([6,6-2H2]glucose, L-[1-13C]leucine) during and 2 h after surgery. Plasma concentrations of glucose, lactate, free fatty acids (FFA), cortisol, glucagon, and insulin were also determined.
Results: Epidural blockade blunted the perioperative increase in the plasma concentration of glucose, cortisol, and glucagon when compared with the control group (P < 0.05). Plasma concentrations of lactate, FFA, and insulin did not change. Intra- and postoperative glucose production was lower in patients with epidural blockade than in control subjects (intraoperative, epidural blockade 8.2 +/- 1.9 vs. control 10.7 +/- 1.4 [mu]mol[middle dot]kg-1[middle dot]min-1, P < 0.05; postoperative, epidural blockade 8.5 +/- 1.8 vs. control 10.5 +/- 1.2 [mu]mol[middle dot]kg-1[middle dot]min-1, P < 0.05), whereas glucose clearance decreased to a comparable extent in both groups (P < 0.05). Protein breakdown (P < 0.05), protein synthesis (P < 0.05), and amino acid oxidation (P > 0.05) decreased with both anesthetic techniques. 相似文献
