    Notes: Summary. Fifty primigravidae were given either lorazepam (2 mg) or identical dummy tablets in early labour, in a randomized double-blind fashion. Analgesia (standardized at pethidine 100 mg) was given as required, and pain relief was assessed by visual analogue scales. Analgesia was significantly better in those mothers who had received lorazepam. There was a higher incidence of respiratory, depression at birth in the infants in this group, although this was not statistically significant. Patients given lorazepam were all satisfied with their analgesic regimen compared with half of those given an inactive tablet. There was a higher incidence of amnesia for labour in the active group. There is a need for a similar study of the effects of other drugs which arc given to supplement pethidine in labour.

    Notes: Patients, admitted and primarily treated in a rural hospital, who required varying periods of intensive care management have been reviewed. The criteria for transfer of such patients 10 more specialised units and the hazards associated with ambulance travel are discussed. We describe measures to reduce these hazards and also a scheme for more uniform documentation and follow-up of such cases by the unaesthetist involved in primary care.

    Notes: Ranitidine 150 mg orally was given every 6 hours to 909 women in labour, while a control group of 378 women received conventional alkali therapy. No differences in incidences of operative intervention, placental retention or post-partum haemorrhage were observed between groups. Gastric sampling during emergency anaesthesia revealed a pH less than 2.5 in four of 51 women who received ranitidine and in two of 31 women who received magnesium trisilicate. Gastric volumes were slightly lower (mean 83 ml) in the study group than in the control group (mean 122 ml). Absorption of ranitidine was greatly slowed following narcotic administration and gastric volume was significantly higher in those patients given narcotics in labour. Apgar scores were similar in both groups of infants, and babies whose mothers were given ranitidine showed no delay in achieving high gastric acidity and no increase in bacterial colonization of the gastro-intestinal tract. Low levels only of ranitidine were found in the blood of babies at 2—3 hours and approximately 12 hours after birth.

    Notes: The effects of glycopyrrolate in doses of 5, 10 and 15 μ/kg and atropine 10, 20 and 30 μ/kg on heart rate and rhythm were studied in anaesthetised patients. Both drugs produced a dose-related increase in heart rate. Glycopyrrolate was approximately twice as potent as atropine in increasing heart rate. The average time taken to achieve peak effect was 2.6 and 3.7 minutes for atropine and glycopyrrolate respectively, and this was significantly different. The smallest doses of both drugs were generally associated with supraventricular dysrhythmias, whereas these were mainly ventricular following the highest doses of both drugs.

    Notes: A standard method was used for estimating the induction dose of thiopentone. In 1812 patients there was a positive relationship between the induction dose and the haemoglobin levels of patients. In 1711 patients an inverse relationship was found between the induction dose and plasma urea. Both of these findings can be explained by alterations in plasma binding of thiopentone.

    Notes: Liver enzyme studies were carried out before and following the use of two new intravenous agents, disoprofol and midazolam. These showed no major abnormal changes attributable to either drug, the findings being similar to those with thiopentone.

    Notes: Study of the minimal dose requirements for induction of anaesthesia poses great problems which are solved by the use of a standard administration technique and the abolition of the eyelash reflex as an endpoint. This has been used in 2206 consecutive unselected inductions, in which variables considered to be likely to influence the dosage were recorded. Milligram per kilogram is the most acceptable method of expressing the average dosage of thiopentone. Doses follow a right skew distribution. Women required a significantly lower average dose of thiopentone than men, while obese patients required less than others. Moderate or heavy drinking increased the induction dose but the use of tobacco did not have any influence. The most important factors governing dosage are the physical fitness of the patient and the premedication used. Patients in ASA grades 1 and 2 required significantly more thiopentone than those in grades 3 and 4. This effect is as great as that of premedication in which an opiate with a phenothiazine or hyoscine markedly reduced the induction dose. It was more important than the patient's pre-operative condition with respect to sedation or apprehension. Small doses of opiates or benzodiazepines do not have as much effect on dosage.

    Notes: Cimetidine was used as the routine antacid treatment for 1323 parturients. The findings from 70 of those who needed an emergency general anaesthetic are reported. Once sufficient time had elapsed for absorption of the drug, and provided that the dosage regime was adhered to, 96% of the women studied had an intragastric pH above 2.5. Neonatal monitoring revealed no abnormalities related to the cimetidine treatment.
