    Notes: A simple and interesting technique for measuring the Hc1 of the superconducting grains in bulk high Tc superconductor (HTSC) samples is presented herein. This technique takes advantage of interesting history effects observed in the nonlinear magnetic response of HTSC samples. The hysteretic second harmonic magnetization shows sharp structure at low applied fields due to the magnetic flux trapped inside the grains. This feature is used to track the penetration of magnetic field inside the superconducting granular regions.

    Notes: Oxygen delivery using nasal prongs was assessed using a lung model for spontaneous ventilation. The analogue lung was attached to a manikin, which provided a model of the ‘face and pharynx’ to which the nasal prongs were applied. Oxygen concentrations were measured in the model trachea at varying fresh gas inflow and peak inspiratory flows. The study demonstrated enormous variability in the both the peak-inspired (26.3–90.0%) and end-expired concentrations (25.2–78.6%) of oxygen delivered to the trachea. There was a regular relationship between the ratio of peak inspiratory flows, expressed over fresh gas inflow and the end-expired oxygen concentrations which could allow estimation of inspired oxygen concentration.

    Notes: The use of a simple oxygen facemask (Hudson) with high oxygen inflow (48 l.min−1) was investigated as a technique for pre-oxygenation, comparing it with the Magill system (oxygen flow: 100 ml.kg−1.min−1). One hundred and thirty-eight patients scheduled for elective gynaecological and orthopaedic surgery were studied: group 1. Hudson mask and group 2, Magill system (Asa 1–2, n = 107); group 3, Hudson mask and group 4, Magill system (Asa 3, n = 30). Pre-oxygenation was assessed by measuring the times to 97%, 95% and 93% arterial desaturation (finger pulse oximetry) following 3 min of pre-oxygenation. The times taken to achieve these end-points in all the study groups suggest that the Hudson mask offers an alternative technique for pre-oxygenation.

    Notes: A 77-year-old man underwent repair of a vesicocolic fistula following which he had a protracted stay in the intensive care unit due to recurrent septicaemia, which was initially caused by bowel anastomosis breakdown. Management included central venous cannulation and pulmonary artery catheter monitoring. A septic, mobile right atrial thrombus developed, which was successfully treated. The literature on this condition is reviewed.

    Notes: The additional work attributable to breathing through five Mapleson A anaesthetic breathing systems (Magill, Lack, Parallel Lack, Humphrey ADE and Enclosed Magill) was studied using a lung model. With all five systems, the additional work was found to be a function of fresh gas flow, respiratory flow as well as system geometry. Within the range of fresh gas flow and respiratory flows studied, the additional work ranged between 80 mJ.1−1 and 182 mJ.1−1. Expiratory work was always greater than the inspiratory workload, increasing fresh gas inflow into the system increases expiratory work, both resistive and elastic components. The Magill system posed the least work expenditure. The values for the additional work obtained with the lung model were of the same order of magnitude when measurements were taken in volunteers.

    Notes: All patients admitted to an Intensive Care Unit were assigned randomly to one of two groups, A and B. Group A received colloid volume replacement as 4.5% albumin whilst group B received a synthetic colloid, polygeline. This study describes the changes in serum albumin concentration in survivors and nonsurvivors in the two groups during their stay in the Intensive Care Unit. The incidences of renal failure and pulmonary oedema were also assessed. Serum albumin concentration decreased in all nonsurvivors. In survivors the serum albumin concentration decreased to a greater extent in the synthetic colloid group than in the albumin group. Despite the differences in serum albumin concentration there were no significant differences between the groups in the incidences of pulmonary oedema or renal failure.

    Notes: The Enclosed Magill, Humphrey ADE and the Bain breathing systems are all used for controlled ventilation of the lungs. This study compares the three systems in vitro with a lung model and in clinical practice. No difference was observed, with ventilatory variables commonly used in clinical practice, between the Bain and the ADE, while significantly lower end-tidal carbon dioxide values were observed with the Enclosed Magill (about 7%). Lower fresh gas flows can be used under these circumstances to maintain normocapnia with the Enclosed Magill than either the Bain or the Humphrey ADE.

    Notes: There are many potential problems associated with anaesthesia in patients with lipid storage diseases. This review covers an 8-year period (1983–1990) during which time 13 patients presented for procedures associated with bone marrow transplantation. The case notes of 12 patients who underwent a total of 48 general anaesthetics were reviewed. Pre-operative assessment revealed cardiorespiratory disease in six patients. Eighty per cent of the children were anaemic (haemoglobin 〈 95 g1-1). Anaesthesia was tolerated well although tracheal intubation in two patients with Gaucher's disease was difficult and became progressively more difficult as they became older. Forty-five per cent of patients with Gaucher's disease were intubated with a tracheal tube smaller than predicted from the age of the child. Few complications were encountered but those which may be anticipated are discussed.

    Notes: The parallel Lack system is a new modification of the Mapleson A system comprising separate inspiratory and expiratory tubes. To determine that the function of the system was that anticipated of a Mapleson A, the fresh gas flow requirements to prevent rebreathing during spontaneous ventilation were assessed in three situations: (I) a lung model (2) conscious volunteers and (3) anaesthetised patients. Two sets of criteria to define rebreathing were used; (A) those based on changes in ventilation or end-expired carbon dioxide tension and (B) minimum inspired carbon dioxide tension. Using A, rebreathing occurred at afresh gas flow to minute ventilation ratio (Vfjve) of 0.75 for the lung model, and 0.73 for conscious volunteers. These results were comparable to those obtained for a Magill attachment. They were also close to the point at which mechanical dead space began to increase in the lung model. Criteria B gave much lower values for the onset of rebreathing. Rebreathing was present by criteria A in five of the six anaesthetised patients at afresh gas flow of 60 ml.kg ‘.min’ (Vfjvf of 0.78). The results confirm that the parallel Lack behaves as a Mapleson A system. The resistance to breathing posed by the parallel Lack was also comparable to the Magill system.
