    Notes: Liver samples were obtained at hepatectomy from patients with end stage alcoholic liver disease (n = 5), primary biliary cirrhosis (n = 5) and chronic rejection needing retransplantation (n = 5). Normal liver material was also obtained from five organ donors. From these samples microsomes were made containing cytochrome P450 3A. The amount of this enzyme was measured by Western immunoblotting and its function assessed by measuring the rate of production of two metabolites of midazolam, 1-hydroxy midazolam and 4-hydroxy midazolam. There was a wide range in all groups for both the expression and function of this enzyme. Liver tissue affected by cirrhotic disease showed greater preservation of enzyme function than that affected by hepatocellulur disease. There was a good correlation between the expression of the enzyme and production of the 1-hydroxy metabolite, but a poor correlation between production of the 4-hydroxy metabolite and expression. This poor correlation may reflect the failure to measure the specific enzyme responsible for producing 4-hydroxy midazolam.

    Notes: A patient who received intravenous papaveretum during and after operation developed anuria and biochemical evidence of impaired renal function in the first 6 hours after surgery. Administration of naloxone 0.4 mg was associated with a sustained improvement in urine output. Mean arterial pressure did not change significantly. The impairment of renal function may have been related to high plasma concentrations of codeine, one of the constituents of papaveretum.

    Notes: The postoperative course of 335 adult patients who underwent orthotopic liver transplantation from 1968–1987 was reviewed retrospectively to identify patients who died in the intensive care unit and the causes of death. Forty-four percent of all deaths occurred in the intensive care unit. The mortality rate in the intensive care unit peaked in 1984 (48%), but decreased to 11% in 1987. The main causes for death in the intensive care unit were infection (55%) and haemorrhage (19%). The patients who died spent more time in the intensive care unit, had a longer period of tracheal intubation and received a larger intra-operative blood transfusion than patients who died in other locations.

    Notes: The pneuPAC Model 2-R pneumatic logic ventilator with a new air entrainment valve that offers the option of an Fio2 of l.0 or 0.45 is described. Its robustness, portability, variable Fio2, choice of positive end expiratory pressure and pressure relief valves make it versatile and suitable for transporting critically ill patients, as well as for resuscitation use when adverse conditions may be encountered. Two new medical air compressors, one mains driven and the other battery powered, designed for use with the ventilator, are also described. The function of the ventilator with the new valve was assessed using a piped gas supply and then reassessed when powered by the compressors.

    Notes: A patient with acute lymphatic leukaemia developed a bilateral fulminating Pseudomonas aeruginosa pneumonia and required controlled ventilation of the lungs. Marked agitation, hypotension and bronchospasm unresponsive to conventional bronchodilators presented a therapeutic challenge. A continuous intravenous infusion of midazolam failed to provide adequate sedation. A continuous intravenous infusion of ketamine resulted in better sedation, an increase in arterial pressure and a dimunition of bronchospasm. The clinical improvement was maintained for the 5 days during which ketamine was infused. Plasma concentrations of ketamine and its metabolites are reported.

    Notes: The effect on gastric emptying of the administration of oral controlled-release morphine 20 mg and intramuscular morphine 10 mg is compared. Gastric emptying was estimated by the measurement of paracetamol absorption. Statistically significant differences exist between the two treatments. There is slight inhibition of gastric emptying with the oral preparation and almost complete inhibition with intramuscular morphine.

    Notes: The aim of this in-vitro study was to investigate the incidence of propofol agglutination with serum from critically ill patients. Serum (400 μl) from 58 critically ill patients and 30 healthy volunteers was incubated with 10 μl of either propofol, Intralipid 10% or Intralipid 20%. Control incubations contained serum only. At 24 h, the serum was examined macroscopically and microscopically for agglutination. Agglutination was seen with Intralipid 20% in serum from all critically ill patients and 13.3% of volunteers. Serum from 91.4% of critically ill patients was agglutinated with Intralipid 10% and only 3.3% of the healthy volunteers. In comparison, propofol produced agglutination in 74.1% of critically ill patients and in none of the serum from healthy volunteers (p 〈 0.05 propofol versus Intralipid 10%, p 〈 0.0001 propofol versus Intralipid 20%). No correlation was seen between agglutination and age, sex, APACHE II score or plasma concentration of acute phase proteins. However, agglutination of propofol and Intralipid 10% was more frequent (p 〈 0.001) in serum from patients with pulmonary disease, than in patients with normal lungs. The clinical implications of these in-vitro findings are unclear and need further investigation.

    Notes: We have compared glomerular filtration rate measured by creatinine clearance with that measured by 51Cr-EDTA clearance after liver transplantation. Fourteen pairs of values were obtained from seven patients on the first and second days after operation. There were wide discrepancies between the values for glomerular filtration rate measured by the two methods, with a regression co-efficient of 0.43 (p = 0.12). Both methods assume a steady state, with no change of extracellular fluid volume or in the rates of exchange between physiological compartments, that does not apply in the immediate period after operation. The results show the difficulties of using clearance techniques to assess renal function after major surgery. Since drug therapy may be based on these measurements, we suggest that in this group of patients isolated clearance values should not be used.
