    Notes: Abstract Massive ascites, hydrothorax, acute renal failure and thromboembolism are clinical manifestations of severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) which may complicate the induction of ovulation with exogenous gonadotrophins. We report a case of severe OHSS with ascites formation in excess of five litres per day. Massive ascites and bilateral pleural effusions resulted in respiratory failure. Continuous ascitic recirculation (AR) was commenced after repeated paracentesis and IV fluid therapy failed to improve the patient's condition. The procedure was undertaken for a total of 15 days and rapidly resulted in marked improvement of impaired respiratory function. Febrile episodes occurred on 3 occasions, but we did not observe coagulation disturbances or adverse haemodynamic effects. Continuous AR is a safe and effective treatment of complicated severe OHSS.

    Resuscitation training for medical students in the United Kingdom — a comparison with the United States of America (1987)
    Springer

    Notes: Abstract Resuscitation training for medical students and junior doctors in the United Kingdom and United States was compared using questionnaires sent to medical schools in both countries. A marked deficiency in the provision of cardiopulmonary resuscitation training has been demonstrated in the United Kingdom; however, in the United States, the availability of uniform certifiable teaching is now widespread. Suggestions for the improvement of training in the United Kingdom are expected to increase medical student proficiency in cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The need for training in basic and advanced resuscitation prior to graduation from medical school is stressed.
