Bone levels of cephradine and cefuroxime after intravenous administration in patients undergoing total hip replacement

Summary A randomised, comparative study is reported of single intravenous doses of cephradine 2 g or cefuroxime 1.5 g given as prophylactic cover for total hip replacements in 40 patients. The serum and bone levels of cephalosporin achieved were higher in the cephradine treated group in proportion to the higher dose employed. Both agents provided adequate bone levels on average, cephradine 25.34 mcg/g, cefuroxime 17.39 mcg/g, although bone penetration was more variable with cefuroxime.

Résumé Dans cette étude comparative randomisée, 40 patients ont reçu une dose intraveineuse unique de 2 g de céphradine ou de 1,5 g de céfuroxime en tant que couverture prophylactique d'arthroplastie totale de hanche. Les concentrations sériques et osseuses de céphalosporine ont été plus élevées dans le groupe traité par la céphradine, en rapport avec l'utilisation d'une dose plus importante. Des concentrations osseuses adéquates ont été obtenues en moyenne avec les deux produits (25,34 mcg/g avec la céphradine et 17,39 mcg/g avec le céfuroxime) bien que la pénétration osseuse ait été plus variable avec le céfuroxime.

     

反映手术间利用效率的统计指标与方法探讨

目的 探索反映手术室工作状态的指标和方法，为了解科室需求、合理利用手术室资源奠定基础。方法 提取医院局域网中有关手术安排、手术过程、麻醉等信息，通过常用统计指标、统计图表，反映手术室、手术科室、手术间的工作状态。结果 工作日手术问日均工作6．34小时，节假日日均工作0．6l小时。工作日13点后有近l／3的空台，14点后近l／2空台。个别手术间利用率偏低。结论 1．由在用手术间时点统计结果可见，14点后接台手术尚有一定潜力，节假日安排手术潜力更大；2．工作日间均工作时数已近满负荷，若要进一步提高手术间的利用，需加强麻醉科和手术室力量。     

Treatment of dual diagnosis patients: A relapse prevention group approach

The authors describe the successful use of an adjunctive group psychotherapy for substance-abusing patients with major psychiatric disorders (bipolar, schizophrenia, schizoaffective, psychotic depression, and atypical psychosis). The group utilizes a psychoeducational approach that focuses on substance abuse causes and consequences, principles of recovery, and relapse prevention strategies. Eight patients with prolonged histories of abuse of cocaine, alcohol, marijuana, or other drugs were enrolled in this weekly group treatment at a community mental health center drug treatment program, while continuing in treatment with their current case manager or primary therapist. Six of the eight patients achieved periods of stable abstinence, documented by self-report, urine toxicology screens, continued group attendance, and improved social functioning. Case examples are utilized to illustrate the group process.

Time-dependent changes in sensitivity to apomorphine and monoamine receptors following withdrawal from continuous cocaine administration in rats

The effects of withdrawal from continuous administration of cocaine on behavioral sensitivity to apomorphine and monoamine receptor density were examined in rats. Subdermal minipumps that delivered either saline or 20 mg/kg/day cocaine hydrochloride were implanted for 2 weeks. Apomorphine-induced stereotypy (0.5 mg/kg, SC) was examined in separate groups of rats either 4 hr or 7, 28, or 60 days after removal of the minipumps. Transient enhanced sensitivity to apomorphine-induced stereotypy occurred during the course of withdrawal. Animals withdrawn from cocaine for 4 hours did not differ from controls in their sensitivity to apomorphine, whereas animals withdrawn from cocaine for 7 days exhibited an increase in apomorphine-induced oral stereotypy relative to controls. However, the enhanced stereotypy response was no longer evident in animals withdrawn for 28–60 days. The animals were sacrificed after behavioral testing, and their brains were assayed for changes in monoamine receptor density in the frontal cortex, caudate-putamen, and nucleus accumbens. The density of ³H-SCH-23390-labeled D1 receptors was altered in all three regions examined in a time-dependent manner that paralleled the changes in behavioral sensitivity to apomorphine. There was a transient decrease in D1 receptor density that was evident by 7 days following withdrawal from continuous cocaine administration and was no longer evident 28 or 60 days posttreatment. There were no changes in ³H-spiroperidol-labeled D2 receptors, ¹²⁵-pindolol-labeled β-adrenergic receptors, or ³H-ketanserin-labeled 5-HT₂ receptors in any of the regions examined at both 4 hr and 7 days after termination of the cocaine infusion. These findings are discussed in terms of their relevance to developing pharmacologic treatments for withdrawal from cocaine. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.     

渗透压微泵恒速给药丙戊酸在小鼠体内的时间药物动力学

以渗透压微泵植入小鼠皮下恒速给予丙戊酸钠，在达到理论稳态浓度时间后，血浆药浓呈昼夜变化，白昼高于夜间，峰值位于明期末。药动学研究揭示丙戊酸血药浓度的昼夜差异可能与其清除率及分布容积的昼夜变化有关。
