    Changes in body weight in critically-ill patients (1996)
    Springer
    Intensive care medicine 22 (1996), S. S153 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-1238
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Conclusion The findings indicate that (i) estimated weight is inaccurate and should not be used in physiological calculations and (ii) significant decreases in body mass during relatively short periods of critical illness may be underestimated due to fluid accumulation.

    Weight loss in ICU patients receiving dopamine (1996)
    Springer
    Intensive care medicine 22 (1996), S. S154 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-1238
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Conclusion The use of dopamine by infusion appears to be associated with an increase in the rate at which lean body mass is lost during critical illness.

    Atracurium in clinical anaesthesia: effect of dosage on onset, duration and conditions for tracheal intubation (1985)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Anaesthesia 40 (1985), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1365-2044
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Conditions for tracheal intubation at 90 seconds, time to onset of maximum block and duration of clinical relaxation after jive different doses of atracurium, which ranged from 0.4 to 1.0 mg/kg were studied in 200 adult patients who were anaesthetised with nitrous oxide, oxygen and halothane or fentanyl. The conditions for intubation improved significantly with increasing doses, and were acceptable in 55% patients with a 0.4 mg/kg dose and in about 90% of those who received the two higher doses. The time to onset of complete block was 257 seconds with 0.4 mg/kg and decreased progressively to 124 seconds with 1.0 mg/kg. The duration of clinical relaxation under fentanyl anaesthesia averaged 29 minutes with 0.4 mg/kg and increased in a dose-related manner to 57 minutes with 1.0 mg/kg: halothane anaesthesia produced only a marginal increase. There was no evidence of cumulation with up to six repeat doses of 0.125 mglkg. The only side effect noticed was cutaneous flushing observed in 42% of patients. This was again dose dependent, being 18% with 0.4 mg/kg and increasing to 73% after 1.0 mg/kg. There was associated hypotension and bronchospasm in one patient.

    Intensive care patients in district hospitals. A case for transfer? (1984)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Anaesthesia 39 (1984), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1365-2044
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Medicine
    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.

    The effects of vecuronium on intra-ocular pressure (1987)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Anaesthesia 42 (1987), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1365-2044
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: The effects of vecuronium on intra-ocular pressure were investigated in doses of O.1 mg/kg during steady state anaesthesia (n = 5), 0.1 mg/kg as part of a normal sequence induction preceded by thiopentone (n = 10), and 0.15 mg/kg as part of a rapid sequence induction with vecuronium administered prior to thiopentone (n = 10). Administration of vecuronium during steady state anaesthesia was associated with a significant decrease. Vecuronium produced a small reduction in pressure during a normal sequence induction, following a significant reduction after thiopentone. Tracheal intubation during normal sequence and rapid sequence inductions produced increases in pressure above the pre-intubation value (significantly so in the case of normal sequence induction); however, the intra-ocular pressure always remained helow the pre-induction value, which suggests that vecuronium 0.15 mg/kg is a suitable relaxant as part of a rapid sequence induction technique where the use of suxamethonium is contraindicated.

    A valuable monitor of splanchnic perfusion? (1996)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Anaesthesia 51 (1996), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1365-2044
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Minimally invasive assessment of the adequacy of perfusion of the gastrointestinal tract has become clinically feasible with the availability of the gastric tonometer. This modified nasogastric tube permits calculation of the pH of the gut mucosal cells; a low tissue pH may indicate tissue hypoxia due to regional hypoperfusion. Such regional hypoperfusion is often undetected by other monitors and, if it occurs intra-operatvely, may result in a poor outcome following major surgery. In critical illness, the splanchnic area seems to be particularly vulnerable to hypoperfusion and such a regional oxygen deficit is implicated in the causation of organ dysfunction/failure. Recent studies have begun to define the circumstances in which splanchnic tissue acidosis develops and several therapies have been proposed to reverse the regional oxygen deficit. This review seeks to clarify whether or not the tonometer is a valuable addition to our current monitoring aids.

    Deliberate self-poisoning with dapsone (1997)
    Oxford BSL : Blackwell Science Ltd

    Details
    ISSN: 1365-2044
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: We report the case of a 14-year-old girl who deliberately ingested 8–9 g of dapsone and presented with severe methaemoglobinaemia and altered mental status. Prompt treatment with repeated doses of methylene blue and organ support brought about control of the methaemoglobinaemia and averted organ failure.
