This study was aimed to evaluate the effects of tramadol hydrochloride on the minimum alveolar concentration of isoflurane ($MAC_{ISO}$) in dogs. Six healthy, female German shepherd dogs (aged 1-2 years) were used in this study. Anesthesia was induced by mask induction and maintained with isoflurane in oxygen. Mechanical ventilation maintained the end-tidal $CO_2$ partial pressure ($P_{ET}CO_2$) from 35 to 45 mmHg throughout the study. A baseline $MAC_{ISO}$ ($MAC_{ISO}B$) was determined starting 45 minutes after induction of anesthesia by clamping a pedal digit until gross purposeful movement was detected. After $MAC_{ISO}B$ determination, dogs received a tramadol loading dose of 3 mg/kg followed by a continuous rate infusion (CRI) of 2.6 mg/kg/h. The determination of $MAC_{ISO}$ after administration of tramadol ($MAC_{ISO}T$) began 20 min after the start of the CRI. Arterial blood pressure and heart rate were recorded continuously and arterial blood samples for blood gas analysis were collected at the end of the equilibration period. Mean ${\pm}$ SD values for the $MAC_{ISO}B$ and $MAC_{ISO}T$ were $1.33{\pm}0.04%$ and $1.23{\pm}0.04%$, respectively. The $MAC_{ISO}B$ decreased significantly by $7.5{\pm}0.2%$ (P < 0.05) after administration of tramadol. The mean heart rate and arterial blood pressure of six dogs were not changed significantly after tramadol administration. The blood gas levels remained constant during the study. In conclusion, tramadol could significantly reduce $MAC_{ISO}$ without depression of cardiorespiratory function. Thus, the use of tramadol on inhalation anesthesia with isoflurane in dogs can improve the stability of anesthesia and the quality of recovery.
The cardiopulmonary responses during total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) between remifentanil/propofol infusion and remifentanil/ketamine infusion in dogs were compared. Fourteen healthy adult beagle dogs were premedicated with acepromazine (0.1 mg/kg, SC) and medetomidine (20 ${\mu}g$/kg, IV), and anesthetized for 3 hr with remifentanil (0.5 ${\mu}g$/kg/min)/propofol (loading dose: 1 mg/kg, CRI: 0.3 mg/kg/min) CRI (group 'P') or remifentanil/ ketamine (loading dose : 5 mg/kg, CRI: 0.1 mg/kg/min) CRI (group 'K'), respectively. Hemodynamics, blood gas analysis and behavioral changes during recovery were measured. The level of anesthesia was determined by toe-web clamping test. The level of surgical anesthesia was maintained throughout the experiment in both groups. Systolic arterial pressure, mean arterial pressure, $PaO_2$ and $SpO_2$ in group 'K' were significantly higher than in group 'P', and were maintained near the normal ranges. In addition, $PaO_2$ in group 'K' was significantly lower than in group 'P'. However, diastolic arterial pressure, heart rate and respiratory rate were not significantly differed. Mean extubation time from the end of infusion was significantly reduced in group 'K', but mean sitting time was significantly reduced in group 'P'. Mean head-up time and mean walking time were not significantly differed. In group 'K', brief muscle rigidity, head waving and licking during recovery were observed. In conclusion, infusion rate of ketamine (0.1 mg/ kg/min) with remifentanil (0.5 ${\mu}g$/kg/min) is an appropriate for obtaining the surgical plane of anesthesia. These results showed that group 'K' had better cardiopulmonary function than group 'P'. That is, remifentanil/ketamine CRI is better TIVA protocol than remifentanil/propofol CRI for 3 hr surgery.

Purpose: Single hair transplantation for eyebrow loss has been considered as a good method of achieving natural appearance of eyebrow. To date, however, no study has reported the survival rate following single hair transplantation for cicatricial eyebrow alopecia. Methods: We performed single hair transplantation using Choi hair transplanter for 49 cases of scarring eyebrow loss from March 2003 to March 2006. Of these cases, 33 could be under a follow-up postoperatively for more than seven months. These 33 cases comprised 20 men and 13 women. Mean follow-up period was 12 months (7-36 months). In 17 patients(51.5%), 100 to 200 hairs were unilaterally transplanted. Results: Following initial hair transplantation, the surgical outcome was excellent in 11 cases(33.3%), good in 12 cases(36.4%), fair or poor in the remaining ten cases(30.3%). All procedures were done under intravenous sedation and local or regional block anesthesia. It took about one and a half hours for us to transplant 200 hairs. The shape of eyebrow was aesthetically acceptable with a good direction and an ideal inclination of hairs. No patients developed notable complications, while 30 percent had a low survival rate. Conclusion: Single hair transplantation using Choi hair transplanter is a safe, effective surgical method for scarring eyebrow loss.
Background: The effect of dexmedetomidine as an adjuvant in the adductor canal block (ACB) and sciatic popliteal block (SPB) on the postoperative tramadol-sparing effect following spinal anesthesia has not been evaluated. Methods: In this randomized, placebo-controlled study, ninety patients undergoing below knee trauma surgery were randomized to either the control group, using ropivacaine in the ACB + SPB; the block Dex group, using dexmedetomidine + ropivacaine in the ACB + SPB; or the systemic Dex group, using ropivacaine in the ACB + SPB + intravenous dexmedetomidine. The primary outcome was a comparison of postoperative cumulative tramadol patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) consumption at 48 hours. Secondary outcomes included time to first PCA bolus, pain score, neurological assessment, sedation score, and adverse effects at 0, 5, 10, 15, and 60 minutes, as well as 4, 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, and 48 hours after the block. Results: The mean ± standard deviation of cumulative tramadol consumption at 48 hours was 64.83 ± 51.17 mg in the control group and 41.33 ± 38.57 mg in the block Dex group (P = 0.008), using Mann-Whitney U-test. Time to first tramadol PCA bolus was earlier in the control group versus the block Dex group (P = 0.04). Other secondary outcomes were comparable. Conclusions: Postoperative tramadol consumption was reduced at 48 hours in patients receiving perineural or systemic dexmedetomidine with ACB and SPB in below knee trauma surgery.
The present study was undertaken to investigate the role of endogenous nitric oxide in renin release under different physiological conditions. In the first series of experiments, renin release was either inhibited by acute volume-expansion (VE) or stimulated by clipping one renal artery in the rat. VE was induced by intravenous infusion of saline (0.9% NaCl) up to 5% of the body weight over 45 min under thiopental (50 mg/kg, IP) anesthesia. VE caused a decrease of plasma renin concentration (PRC). With $N^G-nitro-L-arginine$ methyl ester $(L-NAME,\;5\;{\mu}g/kg\;per\;min)$ superadded to VE, PRC decreased further. The magnitude of increase in plasma atrial natriuretic peptide levels following VE was not affected by the L-NAME. In two-kidney, one clip rats, L-NAME-supplementation resulted in a decrease, and L-arginine-supplementation an increase of PRC. Plasma atrial natriuretic peptide levels were significantly lower in the L-arginine group than in the control. Blood pressure did not differ among the L-NAME, L-arginine, and control groups. In another series of experiments, the renin response to a blockade of NO synthesis was examined using in vitro preparations from isolated renal cortex. L-NAME significantly increased basal renin release, although it was without effect on the isoproterenol-stimulated release. These findings suggest that endogenous nitric oxide significantly contributes to the renin release. Since many factors may affect the renin release in vivo, an interaction between NO and renin under various pathophysiological states is to be further defined.

Mandibular symphyseal distraction osteogenesis is an alternative approach for correcting mandibular transverse deficiencies and dental crowding. The traditional approaches for these are extraction of teeth and arch expansion with traditional orthodontic treatment. Also extractions are usually unavoidable in patients with severe crowding. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of mandibular symphyseal distraction osteogenesis by use of tooth-borne expansion appliance. All of 12 patients had been performed distraction osteogenesis. The surgical procedures were accomplished under local anesthesia and intravenous sedation in an ambulatory surgical setting using a routine distraction protocol. The latency period was 5 days or 7 days after symphyseal osteotomies. The rate & rhyth is a intermittent, 0.75mm or 1.0 mm per day and stabilized for 6, 8 weeks after distraction. The time of orthodontic tooth movement after distraction was variable from 2 weeks to 8 weeks (mean 3 weeks). All patients had been evaluated with study casts, plain periapical films, panorama radiograms before & after surgery. Mandibular symphyseal distraction osteogenesis increased mandibular arch width and corrected dental crowding, with paralleling tooth-borne movement, without proclination of the mandibular incisors.

Objective : The goal of this study is to present whether endoscopic release(ER) is superior to open release(OR) for the treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome(CTS). Method and Material : Fifty-nine wrists in 43 patients who had clnical signs and symptoms consistent with CTS, not responded to non-operative management, were entered into the study. Authors retrospectively compared 27 wrists treated with ER(February 1999-June 1999) with 32 wrists treated with OR(October 1997-March 1999). We performed conventional open surgery in 25 patients(mean age ; 46 years) and Brown's two-portal technique in 18 patients(mean age ; 53 years) under intravenous regional block or general anesthesia. Results : Sixteen patients had CTS on both hands and left hands were affected more frequently than right hand, 34 and 25 respectively. Successful and poor results of ER were similar to those of OR. For patients in OR group, mean duration of symptoms was 5 years(range 1 month-30 years), and postoperative outcome was good in 27(84.4%) of wrists and poor in 5(15.6%). For patients in ER group, mean duration of symptoms was 7 months (range 2 months-25 years), outcome was good in 23(85.2%) of wrists and poor in 4(14.8%). The average time for complete relief of pain was 1.3 weeks and 7.6 weeks, respectively for OR and ER groups. No complication was noted in either group. Conclusion : This preliminary analysis suggests that faster relief of pain was achieved when the endoscopic method was used, although there were no significant differences in their efficacies regarding the improvement of symptoms.
Background: Ondansetron is both a central and peripheral serotonin (5HT) receptor antagonist and droperidol is a dopaminergic blocking drug which acts centrally at the chemoreceptor trigger zone. We assessed the efficacy and adverse effects of ondansetron, droperidol or both, in the prevention of postoperative emesis during postoperative intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) using butorphanol and ketorolac medication. Methods: We studied 60 women, aged 25-60 yrs, who underwent total abdominal hysterectomy (TAH), under general anesthesia using $N_2O-O_2$-enflurane. A bolus dose of 1 mg of butorphanol and 4 mg of ondansetron were given to patients and thereafter, PCA was started using 10 mg of butorphanol and 240 mg of ketorolac mixed into the 5% D/W solution (total volume; 100 ml, 1 ml of bolus dose, and 10 min of lockout interval). We also added ondansetron 4 mg (Group O, n = 20), ondansetron 4 mg and droperidol 2.5 mg (Group OD, n = 20), or droperidol 2.5 mg (Group D, n = 20) to the PCA drug. The severity of pain, nausea, vomiting, sedation and other side effects were assessed at 0, 1, 2, 6, 12, 24, 36 and 48 hr after awakening. Results: There was no difference in the incidence of nausea and vomiting between the three group [Group O: 4 (20%) and 3 (15%), respectively; Group OD: 1 (5%) and 1 (5%), respectively; Group D: 3 (15%) and 3 (15%), respectively]. Group O showed a lower sedation score than the other groups (P < 0.05). The pain score and other side effects did not show any difference between the groups. Conclusions: The combination of ondansetron and droperidol showed no clinical benefit compared with ondansetron or droperidol alone for prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting during postoperative PCA using butorphanol and ketorolac.
Background: Thoracotomy is the operation that produces the most postoperative pain, necessitating the highest requirements for postoperative analgesics. The common methods of treating postthoracotomy pain are the use of thoracic epidural analgesia, intemittent or continuous intercostal nerve blocks, intravenous narcotics and cryoanalgesia. We designed to assess the analgesic effect of epidural analgesia, cryoanalgesia and the combined analgesia in thoracic surgery. Methods: A prospective study was carried out in 59 patients undergoing elective thoracotomy for parenchymal disease. Patients were randomized into three groups: C (cryoanalgesia), CE (cryoanalgesia and thoracic epidural analgesia), E (epidural analgesia). All patients had standard anesthesia with endotracheal intubation using a double lumen endotracheal tube, and one-lung ventilation. Subjective pain relief was assessed on a visual analog scale. Analgesic requirements, complications and the degree of satisfaction were evaluated during the 7 days following surgery. Results: Subjective pain relief was significantly better in Group CE and Group E in comparison with Group C (P < 0.05). Cryoanalgesia provided a better pain score on the 6th and 7th POD than the early postoperative periods. Analgesic requirements were higher in Group C than in the Group CE and Group E during the first POD. The incidence of side effects was similar in Group CE and Group E. Conclusions: If we can reduce the concentration of fentanyl and local anesthetics in combined analgesia of epidural and cryoanalgesia, the disadvantages of each method would be overcome and would be a better method of postthoracotomy pain control.
Background: Epidural coadministration of opioids and local anesthetics has provided excellent analgesia during postoperative period. However, it is usually associated with the occurance of many side effects which were induced by epidural morphine. Low dose of intravenous naloxone has been known to reduce morphine-induced side effects without reversing analgesia, but the effect of epidural naloxone has not been defined in human study. Therefore we evaluated side effects and analgesia when naloxone was administered via epidural route. Methods: Eighty patients having epiduro-general anesthesia for hysterectomy were randomly assigned to one of four study groups. As a mean of postoperative pain control, all received 2 mg of epidural morphine bolusly at 1 hr before the end of surgery and continuous epidural infusion was started by Two-day Infusor containing morphine 4 mg in 0.125% bupivacaine 100 ml with either none of naloxone(Group 1, n=20), 2 ug/kg/day of naloxone(Group 2, n=20), 3 ug/kg/day of naloxone(Group 3, n=20) or 4 ug/kg/day of naloxone(Group 4, n=20). Study endpoints included visual analog scales(VAS) for pain, severity of nausea, itching, somnolence and respiratory depression. They were assessed at 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, and 48 hr postoperatively. Results: VAS for pain showed significant difference in Group 4 compared with Group 1 at all of the evaluation time. Itching score decreased significantly in Group 3 and 4 after 8 hr postoperatively and nausea score decreased significantly in Group 3 after 4 hr postoperatively. Alertness score decreased significantly in Group 3 and 4 especially in early postoperative period. Conclusion: This study suggests that epidural naloxone reduce morphine-induced side effects in dose-dependent fashion without reversal of the analgesic effect of epidural morphine.
