에피네프린을 함유한 국소마취제가 치수혈류량에 미치는 영향을 관찰하고, 이 국소마취가 와동 형성에 의해 야기되는 치수의 혈류변화에 미치는 영향을 평가하고자 전신마취 된 아홉 마리의 고양이 견치에서 1 : 100.000 에피네프린이 함유된 2% 리도카인 용액으로의 국소 침윤마취 전후 및 와동형성 전후의 치수혈류를 laser Doppler flowmetry (Periflux 4001, Perimed Co.. Sweden)를 사용하여 측정하고 paired t-test 로 통계 분석하였다 . 상아질 와동의 형성은 치수혈류의 현저한 증가를 초래하였다 (p < 0.05). 에피네프린을 함유한 리도카인의 침윤마취는 치수혈류를 유의하게 감소시켰다 (p < 0.05). 국소마취 한 치아에서는 마취되지 않은 치아에 비해 와동형성 시 유의하게 적은 치수혈류의 증가를 나타내었다 (p < 0.05). 따라서 본 연구에서는 혈관수축제를 포함한 국소마취가 와동 형성에 의해 초래되는 혈류량의 증가를 효과적으로 억제할 수 있음을 보여주고 있다.

본 실험은 각각의 마취방법이 체성감각유발전위 (SEPs) 파형에 미치는 영향을 알아보고 SEP의 측정에 적절한 마취방법을 찾고자 시행하였다. 임상적으로 건강하고 크기와 나이가 비슷한 다섯 마리의 잡종견을 대상으로 SEPs를 측정하고 각각의 측정값을 분석하였다. SEPs측정을 위해 후 경골신경을 자극하였고 요추 5-6번 사이에서 channel 1의 LP1과 LN1, 흉추 11-12사이에서 channel 2의 TP1, TN1을 기록하였다. 실험에 사용한 마취방법 중. Acepromazine + Thiopental Na + Isoflurane, Acepromazine + Propofol + Isoflurane, Diazepam + Xylazine, Xylazine + Ketamine, Acepromazine + Propofol infusion, 및 Propofol infusion등의 방법만이 SEPs측정이 가능하였고, 파형은 명확하였으며, 측정에 요구되어지는 일정 시간인 25분 이상 동안 마취 유지가 가능하였다. 또한 각 마취군에서의 SEPs 파형을 Acepromazine + Thiopental Na + Isoflurane군과 비교해 보았을 때 latency의 경우, Acepromazine + Propofol + Isoflurane군의 ST(stimulating point)-LN1, SP-TP1, Diazepam + Xylazine 군의 Chl-Ch2, Xylazine + Ketamine군의 Chl-Ch2, Acepromazine + Propofol infusion군의 ST-LP1와 Chl-Ch2에서 부분적으로 유의적인 차가 있었다. Conduction velocity의 경우, Acepromazine + Propofol + Isoflurane군의 ST-LN1, Diazepam + Xylazine군의 Chl-Ch2, Xylazine + Ketamine군의 Chl-Ch2, Acepromazine + Propofol infusion군의 ST-LP1, 그리고 Propofol infusion군의 ST-LN1의 측정값에서 유의적인 차가 있었지만 전반적으로는 전체적인 파형의 유의적인 변화는 없었다. 이상의 결과를 토대로 SEPs 측정시 흡입마취로는 Acepromazine + Thiopental + Isoflurane과 Acepromazine + Propofol + Isoflurane, 주사마취로는 Diazepam + Xylazine과 Xylazine + Ketamine, 점적마취로는 Acepromazine + Propofol infusion과 Propofol infusion 방법이 사용 가능한 것으로 확인되었다.

Stellate ganglion block and cervical epidural nerve block are frequently practiced in pain clinics because of simple procedure and good effect. Nerve block at head and neck may produce serious complication such as loss of consciousness and cardiac arrest. Blood supply is rich in neck and inadvertent arterial injection of local anesthetics may enter directly into brain. We experienced convulsion and respiratory arrest during SGB and cervical epidural block. The patients were resuscitated successfully and recovered without any adverse effects.

The pyriformis syndrome is an entrapment neuropathy in which the sciatic nerve is compromised by the pyriformis muscle. Using local anesthetics and steroid injection through a needle guided by an electric nerve stimulator, we satisfactorily treated a case of pyriformis syndrome.

There are lipid phase theories and aqueous phase theories among the theories of anesthesia. For water clusters induced by anesthetizing molecules, the interaction energies are calculated using an empirical potential function and correlated with the anesthetizing partial pressures for mice. A good agreement was obtained with the theory that the water clusters around anesthetics play an important role on the anesthetic actions.

경막외강으로 steroid 및 국소마취제투여는 요통치료에 유일한 방법만은 아니나 여러 대증요법중 가장 관심있는 방법중의 하나이다. 비록 요통이나 혹은 방사통이 동반된 경우에서 경막외강으로 steroid를 투여하여 매우 좋은 결과를 얻었다는 보고도 많다. 더우기 급성이며 짧은 병력올 가지고 수술을 받지 않을 경우에는 더욱 극적인 효과를 볼 수 있다. 경막외강으로는 steroid 단독 혹은 생리식염수나 국소마취제를 steroid의 희석제로 동시 사용하는 경우도 있다. 그러므로 steroid때문에 병세가 호전되었는지 혹은 희석제 때문에 호전 되였는지 분간하기 힘든 경우도 있었다. 그러나 투여후 즉각적인 성공적인 결과라 할지라도 지속성(longevity), 실현성(reality) 및 적응(indication)등에 문제가 있는 것은 사실이다.

Regional sympathetic blockade is the most effective treatment for reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD). Radiofrequency thermocoagulation provides longer duration of pain relief than local anesthetics and less complication than chemical neurolytic agents for lumbar sympathectomy. Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is thought to be an effective modality yieding good results in treating intractable neuropathic pain. Therefore RSD might be a good indication for SCS. We treated a patient with RSD who responded well to lumbar sympathetic blockade (LSB) with radiofrequency thermocoagulation and SCS. The patient had a left ankle sprain requiring a case for the lower leg for 2 weeks. The patient suffered increasing pain and swelling on the lower part of that leg. We thought to block the lumbar sympathetic chain utillzing radiofrequency thermocoagulation 2 days after LSB with local anesthetics. The results provided accepatable pain relief (VAS $8{\rightarrow}15$) but the patient still could not walk due to remaining pain which was further aggravated by walking. After SCS, pain relief improved (VAS $5{\rightarrow}13$) and patient could walk without assistance.

Background: Intraarticular local anesthetic injection has been therapeutically applied for pain control in various arthritis patients. However, little physiologic effects of local anesthetics on their tissue were known. This study was conducted to determine its effects on the cell proliferation and matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) production of cultured fibroblast like synoviocytes (FLS) derived from synovial tissues of rheumatoid arthritis patients. Methods: Bupivacaine with varying concentrations 0 (control), 0.1, 0.25, 0.5% was applied to experimental cell groups growing as monolayers in culture plates for varying durations 0 (control), 30, 90, 180 seconds in the presence and absence of interleukin-$1\beta$. Results: No statistical significances were noted in thymidine incorporation between 0, 30, 90 and 180 seconds exposure groups with 0.5% bupivacaine after 1 day and 2 days. Thymidine incorporation between 0, 0.1, 0.25, 0.5% exposure groups 1 day and 2 days after 90 seconds exposure did not show any differences. After exposure to bupivacaine, there were statistically significant increases in MMP-1 (p=0.025) and MMP-3 productions (p=0.000) of FLS in the absence of IL-$1\beta$, but no differences among the groups in the presence of IL-$1\beta$. Conclusion: We concluded that in this short-term in vitro study, bupivacaine does not have injurious effect on cultured rheumatoid arthritic joint tissues. The long-term effect cannot be known from this investigation.

Objective : Chronic neck or back pain can be managed with various procedures. Although these procedures are usually well-tolerated, a variety of side effects have been reported. In this study we reviewed cases of unexpected temporary adverse events after blocks and suggest possible causes. Methods : We reviewed the records of patients treated with spinal pain blocks between December 2009 and January 2011. The types of blocks performed were medial branch blocks, interlaminar epidural blocks and transforaminal epidural blocks. During the first eight months of the study period (Group A), 2% mepivacaine HCL and triamcinolone was used, and during the last six months of the study period (Group B), mepivacaine was diluted to 1% with normal saline. Results : There were 704 procedures in 613 patients. Ten patients had 12 transient neurologic events. Nine patients were in Group A and one was in Group B. Transient complications occurred in four patients after cervical block and in eight patients after lumbar block. Side effects of lumbar spine blocks were associated with the concentration of mepivacaine (p<0.05). The likely causes were a high concentration of mepivacaine in five patients, inadvertent vascular injection in three patients, intrathecal leak of local anesthetics in one, and underlying conversion disorder in one. Conclusion : Spinal pain blocks are a good option for relieving pain, but clinicians should always keep in mind the potential for development of inevitable complications. Careful history-taking, appropriate selection of the anesthetics, and using real-time fluoroscopy could help reduce the occurrence of adverse events.
