    Notes: Alkalinisation of local anaesthetic drugs is a controversial technique for improving regional blockade. Forty-two patients scheduled for upper limb surgery received axillary brachial plexus anaesthesia using a cannula technique. Patients were randomly allocated to receive either lignocaine 1.5% with 1 in 200 000 adrenaline (pH = 4.2) or lignocaine 1.5% with I in 200000 adrenaline (pH = 7.2). There was no significant difference in the incidence of satisfactory blockade or distribution of anaesthesia between the two groups. The percentage of patients with complete anaesthesia at 10, 20 and 30 min following injection was significantly increased in the alkalinised group with regard to the ulnar and median nerves, and the median cutaneous nerve of the arm (p 〈 0.05). In the alkalinised group, there was a significant reduction in the time to useful anaesthesia and a reduced requirement for adjuvants (p 〈 0.05). There was no effect on the duration of anaesthesia.

    Notes: We report the changes observed in a number of pulmonary function tests performed on 36 patients undergoing Caesarean section under spinal anaesthesia. The tests comprised peak expiratory flow, forced expiratory volume in one second, forced vital capacity, forced expiratory volume in one second to forced vital capacity ratio and the maximal mid-expiratory flow. Significant changes occurred that are consistent with a restrictive ventilatory defect. These changes persisted for four hours after the induction of spinal anaesthesia. Administration of 35% oxygen by facemask failed to change significantly fetal umbilical vein pH or partial pressure of oxygen.

    Notes: Following induction of epidural analgesia with 0.375% bupivacaine, 120 healthy parturients were randomly assigned in a double blind fashion to one of eight infusion groups. All received 8ml.h-1 of0.125% bupivacaine either alone (control group), or with alfentanil at 133, 266 or 400μg.h-1 (groups A1-A3) or with diamorphine at 133, 266, 400 or 533μg.h1 (groups D1-D4). Significantly longer top-up intervals were achieved with the two highest doses of both alfentanil and diamorphine when compared with bupivacaine alone (p〈0.01), making the minimum effective doses 266 μg.h-1 of alfentanil and 400 ng.h-1 of diamorphine. Perineal analgesia was better in all the opioid groups compared with the control group (p 〈 0.05). The intensity of motor block was greater in the control group (p 〈 0.05). The incidence of pruritus did not differ between groups. The highest dose of diamorphine caused significantly more nausea. No significant neonatal side-effects were demonstrated.

    Notes: [Auszug] Silicon shows photo- and electroluminescence at visible wavelengths when chemically etched into a microporous network of ‘wires’ several nanometres thick. This raises the possibility of a silicon-based optoelectronic technology. The luminescence properties may be understood on the ...
