INTRATRACHEAL INSUFFLATION ANESTHESIA (MELTZER-AUER)

Ether, Note on the Intratracheal Insufflation of

Speaker 1: Herbert Meltzer, USA

Introduction: First-episode mania (FEM) is the first feasible diagnostic and therapeutic opportunity. Lithium is established as a first-line treatment for bipolar disorder. More recently antipsychotic drugs including quetiapine have been found to be effective in the treatment of mania, depression and in maintenance. However, the comparative benefits of these agents in the maintenance phase afte...

Origin of Auer bodies.

LTHOUGH the preseflce of Aimer bodies in immature letmkocytes is presumptive evidence of leukemia, the origin of these strtmctures is not clear. Probably the earliest theory of the nature of Auer bodies is traceable to John Auer’s1 original description of these structures in 1906. At that time he postulated that “the data are only strong enough to render a comparison justifiable” I)etweefl huma...

An Experimental Study of the Question of Aspiration of Foreign Material into the Air Passages during Intratracheal Insufflation

The foregoing experiments clearly justify the following conclusions :- Intratracheal insufflation protects the respiratory tract very efficiently against any invasion from the pharynx. The filling up of the pharynx with extraneous material, whether it be from the stomach or from the mouth, brings no danger to the trachea and bronchi. This holds true even if the animal is under deep anesthesia. ...

A new method of inhalation anesthesia with nasopharyngeal insufflation in rat experiment.

We have established a new method of anesthesia with nasopharyngeal insufflation for intraoral procedure in rodents. Twelve male Wistar rats weighing 330-390 g were used in this study. Insertion of a feeding tube 1.0 mm in diameter coated with 2% xylocaine jelly was inserted into the nasal cavity approximately 25 mm from the naris, and anesthetization with mixed gas of 100% oxygen with 3-4% enfl...
