    Notes: Vecuronium (Org NC 45) was evaluated as a neuromuscular blocking agent in chidren and compared with pancuronium in a double-blind study. Satisfactory intubating conditions were present 90 seconds after 0.1 mg/kg of either drug. The onset of complete block was quicker after vecuronium but the greatest difference was found in the duration to 25% recovery which was significantly shorter with vecuronium (20 min) compared with pancuronium (48 min). The use of vecuronium was associated with cardiovascular stability and no clinical evidence of histamine release. Antagonism of the block was readily achieved with neostigmine.

    Notes: Both caudal anaesthesia and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs have been used in the management of postoperative pain in children. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the combination of caudal analgesia and rectally administered diclofenac in the treatment of pain following minor surgery in children. Thirty-nine, ASA grade 1 or 2, children undergoing inguinal or penoscrotal surgery were randomly assigned to receive either a caudal block using 0.125% bupivacaine with adrenaline or a similar caudal block in combination with rectally administered diclofenac 1 mg.kg-1. Children given a caudal block alone were more likely to need analgesia in the first 24 h postoperatively. It would appear that the combination of a caudal block and rectal diclofenac in children undergoing minor lower abdominal surgery reduces the need for subsequent analgesia.

    Notes: Sixty unpremedicated children aged between 3 and 14 years, scheduled for otoplasty, were randomly divided into one of three groups to receive either ondansetron 0.1 mg.kg-1, droperidol 75 μg.kg-1, or placebo at induction of anaesthesia. All patients received a standard general anaesthetic using thiopentone, atracurium and halothane. Opioid analgesia was avoided intra-operatively and infiltration with local anaesthetic was used prior to the start of surgery. Children who received ondansetron were less likely to vomit (15%) than those who received either droperidol (40%) or placebo (60%) (p 〈 0.01). This group also tolerated oral ingestion of fluids and solids earlier than those who received either droperidol or placebo (p 〈 0.001). There was no difference between the placebo or droperidol group in the incidence of vomiting or time to ingestion of oral fluids and meals. Three patients in the ondansetron group had a self-terminating nodal rhythm which was not associated with any haemodynamic disturbances. Postoperatively there were no untoward incidents in any of the groups and all patients were discharged home the day after surgery.

    Notes: Spinal anaesthesia was used for 25 infants who were born prematurely and who subsequently required inguinal herniotomy. Hyperbaric bupivacaine 0.5% was administered in a dose of 0.3 mg/kg. Satisfactory surgical anaesthesia was achieved in 22 patients and there were no episodes of haemodynamic instability. The technique was not associated with postoperative apnoea. Spinal anaesthesia is a safe and effective alternative to general anaesthesia in these high-risk infants. However, postoperative apnoea monitoring is still essential for all infants born prematurely.

    Notes: Summary A pilot to assess a process of interdepartmental peer review of paediatric anaesthetic departments in the United Kingdom was undertaken. Departments were assessed in relation to the standards which should characterise anaesthetic departments throughout the country. Examples of good practice and areas for further development were identified. Peer review visits were conducted by teams which included medical and non-medical members. The importance of the inclusion of lay people in such visits is being increasingly recognised. All of those who participated in the process felt their time had been usefully spent, and they were enthusiastic for the process to continue.
