preliminary report Continuous Extrapleural Intercostal Nerve Block With Continuous Infusion of Lidocaine After Thoracotomy
ous infusion of1% lidocaine hydrochloride at a dose of 1 mg/kg/h. A posterior parietal pleural pocket was created and cannulated with a 16-g polyethylene catheter. Lidocaine was perfused over a 3-day period following surgery. Patients also had access to mor¬ phine sulfate via patient-controlled analgesia. Eigh¬ teen consecutive posterolateral thoracotomies (in 17 patients) performed during a 6-...
متن کاملPrinciples and pitfalls of nerve conduction studies.
This report reviews the fundamental principles and the changing concepts of nerve stimulation techniques, and discusses the proper application of these techniques in the differential diagnosis of peripheral nerve disorders. Nerve conduction studies help delineate the extent and distribution of the neural lesion and distinguish two major categories of peripheral nerve disease: demyelination and ...
متن کاملEvaluating Optic Nerve Damage: Pearls and Pitfalls
Primary open-angle glaucoma is a progressive optic neuropathy involving loss of retinal ganglion cells and their axons at the level of the optic nerve head. This change manifests as thinning and excavation of the neural tissues and nerve fiber layer. Therefore, it has long been known that the structural appearance of the optic nerve head is paramount to both glaucoma diagnosis and to the detect...
متن کاملIntracoronary continuous adenosine infusion.
BACKGROUND Various methods are used to induce maximal hyperemia for physiologic studies, but the feasibility and efficacy of continuous intracoronary (IC) infusion of adenosine for measurement of fractional flow reserve (FFR) has not been well-defined. METHODS AND RESULTS Patients with intermediate coronary artery stenosis were consecutively enrolled. In the phase I study, FFR was measured af...
متن کاملContinuous infusion of tracer norepinephrine may miscalculate unidirectional nerve uptake of norepinephrine in humans.
In order to evaluate uptake kinetics of norepinephrine (NE) in different tissues, a catheterization study was performed in control subjects (n = 6) and patients with enhanced sympathetic nervous activity (cirrhosis, n = 12) during constant intravenous infusion of L[3H]norepinephrine ([3H]NE) for 75 minutes. In spite of a higher NE spillover from kidneys in patients compared with controls (82 vs...
