    Patients' experiences of patient-controlled analgesia (1996)

    Notes: We examined patients' experiences of patient-controlled analgesia by the use of semistructured interviews in 26 patients shortly after discontinuation of the device. The opinions expressed by the patients were examined qualitatively to identify recurring themes in their experience of patient-controlled analgesia. The areas of interest were analgesia, factors influencing whether the patient pressed the button or not, whether they felt in control and side effects. Negative as well as the expected positive evaluations were found. The negative evaluations reflected problems with nausea and vomiting and inadequate analgesia. No clear strategy for pressing, or not pressing, the button emerged and the principle of control by the patient over their pain relief was not considered important.‘The uncritical acceptance of expert-driven questionnaires into clinical trial protocols will only diminish the importance of the patient's perspective.’

    Postoperative morbidity following cataract surgery (1996)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Anaesthesia 51 (1996), S. 0

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Two hundred and thirty-one patients were questioned the day following their cataract surgery to ascertain the incidence of postoperative morbidity. One hundred and nineteen patients received local anaesthesia (LA) and 112 received general anaesthesia (GA). There was a significant difference in the incidence of nausea (21% in G A group, 3% in LA group, p 〈 0.01), sore throat (41% G A group, 3% LA group, p 〈 0.01), and bruising of the eye (15% G A group, 39% LA group, p 〈 0.01). There was no significant difference in the incidence of vomiting, headache, double vision, the severity of postoperative pain, or the need for analgesia. The time before the patients drank and ate postoperatively was significantly shorter in the local anaesthetic group (1.3 h and 1.8 h LA group, 4.1 h and 6.7 h GA group respectively, p 〈 0.01).

    Sevoflurane anaesthesia for major intra-abdominal surgery (1994)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Anaesthesia 49 (1994), S. 0 
    Details

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: The cardiovascular effects and recovery characteristics of sevoflurane and isoflurane anaesthesia were compared in 30 gynaecological and 20 general surgical patients undergoing elective intra-abdominal surgery. Patients were randomly allocated to receive either sevofurane or isofurane as the volatile agent, in a balanced anaesthetic technique including morphine and atropine prernedication and thiopentone, fentanyl. vecuronium and nitrous oxide. The concentration of volatile agent was titrated according to clinical variables. Mean heart rate, systolic and diastolic arterial pressure and duration of surgery did not differ between the two groups. Time to emergence from anaesthesia in the gynaecological patients was significantly faster after sevoflurane compared with isoflurane (p 〈 0.005). Sevoflurane provided stable anaesthesia during major intra-abdominal surgery.

    Epidural diamorphine and the metabolic response to upper abdominal surgery (1985)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Anaesthesia 40 (1985), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1365-2044

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: The effect of the administration of diamorphine 10 mg epidurally on the metabolic response to cholecystectomy was investigated and compared with a control group of patients given intravenous papaveretum. There were no significant differences in blood glucose, lactate and pyruvate, and plasma nonesterified fatty acid values between the epidural diamorphine group and the control group. Plasma cortisol concentrations were significantly lower in the epidural diamorphine group postoperatively and this was associated with a marked improvement in pain relief. We conclude that epidural opiates do not directly influence the metabolic response to surgery, but decrease the cortisol response postoperatively secondary to improved analgesia.

    Effect of dantrolene on leg metabolism in porcine malignant hyperthermia (1982)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Anaesthesia 37 (1982), S. 0 
    Details

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: The effect of the intravenous administration of dantrolene 3.5 mg/kg body weight on leg metabolism during porcine malignant hyperthermia (MH) was investigated in six Pietrain pigs. Arterial pH improved only slowly after dantrolene and was associated with the continuing efflux of lactate from the leg. Oxygen uptake by the leg had returned to control values 30 minutes after dantrolene. Glucose production by the leg was observed during malignant hyperthermia but this was rapidly abolished by dantrolene. It is concluded that the most useful indices for assessing the adequacy of the treatment of MH are those which reflect changes in oxidative muscle metabolism.

    Effects of high-dose fentanyl anaesthesia on the established metabolic and endocrine response to surgery (1984)

    Notes: The effect of the administration of fentanyl 50 μg/kg body weight on the established metabolic response to pelvic surgery was investigated. In comparison with a control group of patients in whom anaesthesia was supplemented with halothane, fentanyl was associated with a significant decrease in only blood lactate concentrations and heart rate. There were no significant differences in blood glucose, plasma non-esterified fatty acids, and plasma cortisol values between the two anaesthetic techniques. It is concluded that the administration of high-dose fentanyl has little effect on the established metabolic response to surgery, compared with the marked changes observed when the same dose is given before the onset of surgical stimulation.

    Liquid crystal thermometry during anaesthesia (1984)

    Notes: The use of cutaneous liquid crystal thermometry (EZ Temp) as an estimate of core temperature during routine surgery was investigated in 20 patients. Seventeen per cent of the recordings made with the EZ Temp were more than 1°C different from oesophageal temperature. There was a poor correlation between EZ Temp values and both oesophageal and aural temperatures (r = 0.54 for both sites). We conclude that liquid crystal thermometry of the forehead is not sufficiently accurate to be used as an indicator of core temperature during routine surgery.
