Pulmonary arteriovenous fistula is a rare congenital vascular malformation resulting from abnormal capillary development with incomplete formation of vascular septum normally dividing the primitive connections between the venous and arterial plexuses. Recently we have experienced a case of the bilateral pulmonary arteriovenous fistula in 7 years-old female patient. On admission, clinical manifestations were cyanosis of lips, clubbing and cyanosis of digits, and exertional dyspnea. The PO2 in arterial blood gas analysis was 43.3mmHg. In left upper and right lower lobe pulmonary arteriovenous fistulas were confirmed by bilateral pulmonary angiography. Left upper lobectomy and wedge resection of right lower lobe were performed respectively. Postoperative results were good.

Three different chemical compositions of total paraffin, total naphthene, total aromatic content in naphtha have been successfully analyzed using FT-Raman spectroscopy. Partial least squares (PLS) regression has been utilized to develop calibration models for each composition from Raman spectral bands. The PLS calibration results showed Blood correlation with those of gas chromatography (GC). Using PLS regression, the spectral information related to each composition has been successfully extracted from highly overlapped Raman spectra of naphtha.

A pH-ISEFET microprobe for in vivo measurements has been fabricated by combining ISFET (SL-IIS) chip and capillary thin film reference electrode. A two-step TCE oxidation for the gate oxide layer and multilayer encapsulation using silicone rubber and epoxy were specially used for the improvement of the stability and temperature dependence of the ISFET's. The measured sensitivit, response time and temperature dependence of the pH-ISFET microprobes are 50 mV/pH, less than one second, and - 0.01 pH/$^{\circ}$ , respectively. By operating continuously more than 40 days, a long term stability of 0.016 pH/day is obtained. The result of pH monitoring of femoral arterial blood in a rabbit is fairly good agreement with the value of blood gas analysis.

Pulmonary arteriovenous fistula is a rare congenital vascular malformation in the lung, resulting from erroneous capillary development, with incomplete formation or disintegration of the vascular septa that would normally divide the primitive connection between the venous and arterial plexus. The pathogenesis of its symptom is that unoxygenated and desaturated arterial blood enter into the pulmonary venous system directly. Recently we have experienced a case of multiple pulmonary arteriovenous fistula in a 15 year old male patient, who presented the symptom of cyanosis and dyspnea on exertion. The operation revealed well circumscribed and multilobulated aneurysmal lesion in left lower lobe with its subpleural and posterolateral basal location, and another aneurysmal lesion in inferior lingular segment of left lung. There was no abnormal connection between the fistula and systemic circulation. The left lower lobectomy was performed along with local extirpation of the inferior lingular segment of left lung. Both lesions showed angiomatous dilatation of the various sized vessels embedded in the parenchyma microscopically. Postoperative clinical course disclosed much improvement in symptoms and in the value of blood gas analysis. The patient was discharged without any complication.

A 35-year-old Perubian who suffered from grand mal seizures died in the aircraft on his way from the United States to Hongkong via Incheon international airport of Korea. While performing the autopsy, 115 packs made with double layer of transparent film and black plastic bag containing cocaine were found in the ileum and large intestine. Among of them, 3 packs were ruptured. To determine the concentration of cocaine and its metabolites, blood, urine, bile, liver, spleen, heart, kidney, brain and gastric contents were taken and toxicological analysis was performed. Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) following liquid-phase extraction using chloroform:isopropanol (=9:1) and derivatization with bis(trimethylsilyl)-trifluoroacetamide (contains 1% trimethylchlorosilane) was performed. High levels of cocaine, benzoylecgonine (BE) and ecgonine methylester (EME) were found in the postmortem blood (0.96, 3.09 and $5.59{\mu}g/mL$) and urine (32.85, 145.35 and $53.17{\mu}g/mL$), respectively. Cocaine and its metabolites were also detected in all other biological specimen.

Di-(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) 가 가소제로 첨가되 있는 poly(vinylchloride) (PVC) 제품의 사용중에는 DEHP가 방출되어 나올 가능성이 있다. 이때 추출되는 DEHP의 정량적인 측정법에는 여러가지가 있으나 그 방법에 따라 용출량에 많은 차이가 발생하기 때문에 측정방법과 결과에 대한 비교분석은 시급한 과제라 할 수 있다. 이를 평가하기 위하여 PVC를 주원료로 하는 혈액백과 수액백에서의 DEHP 용출에 관한 연구를 기체 크로마토그래프와 분광광도계를 이용한 두 가지 방법으로 수행하였다. 5종류의 PVC 백을 실험 재료로 선택하여 $40{\times}10{\times}0.4mm$ 크기의 시편을 제조하고 이를 용출액에 담가 1시간동안 DEHP를 용출하였다. 기체 크로마토그래프로 DEHP 를 검출한 결과 시료에 따라 $23.2{\sim}70.9{\mu}g/mL$ 의 DEHP가 용출되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 반면 PVC백 안에 용출액을 주입하여 1시간 동안 DEHP를 용출시키고 분광 광도계를 이용하여 DEHP를 검출한 결과 $24.8{\sim}41.3{\mu}g/mL$의 DEHP가 용출되었다. 용출 조건과 실험방법에 따라 서로 다른 수치를 보임을 알 수 있었고 단위 시간 단위 면적 당 용출되는 DEHP의 양은 일정하다는 전제 하에 두 실험의 결과를 비교하고 환산하는 식을 구하여 적용한 결과 두 측정방법에서 얻어진 용출량이 거의 일치하였다.

Background: Extracorporeal circulation (ECC) can induce alterations in blood viscoelasticity and cause red blood cell (RBC) aggregation. In this study, the authors evaluated the effects of pump flow pulsatility on blood viscoelasticity and RBC aggregation. Methods: Mongrel dogs were randomly assigned to two groups: a nonpulsatile pump group (n=6) or a pulsatile pump group (n=6). After ECC was started at a pump flow rate of 80 mL/kg/min, cardiac fibrillation was induced. Blood sampling was performed before and at 1, 2, and 3 hours after ECC commencement. To eliminate bias induced by hematocrit and plasma, all blood samples were adjusted to a hematocrit of 45% using baseline plasma. Blood viscoelasticity, plasma viscosity, hematocrit, arterial blood gas analysis, central venous $O_2$ saturation, and lactate were measured. Results: The blood viscosity and aggregation index decreased abruptly 1 hour after ECC and then remained low during ECC in both groups, but blood elasticity did not change during ECC. Blood viscosity, blood elasticity, plasma viscosity, and the aggregation index were not significantly different in the groups at any time. Hematocrit decreased abruptly 1 hour after ECC in both groups due to dilution by the priming solution used. Conclusion: After ECC, blood viscoelasticity and RBC aggregation were not different in the pulsatile and nonpulsatile groups in the adult dog model. Furthermore, pulsatile flow did not have a more harmful effect on blood viscoelasticity or RBC aggregation than nonpulsatile flow.

A dog (neutered male Schnauzer, 11 years old, 8 kg) presented with recurrence of immune-mediated hemolytic anemia. Rapid whole blood transfusion was initiated, and then sudden tachycardia and dyspnea were observed. Invasive arterial blood pressure, arterial blood gas analysis, and thoracic radiograph indicated transfusion-associated circulatory overload (TACO). Persistent high blood pressure of 160-205 mmHg was observed; the thoracic radiograph revealed interstitial infiltration and a fissure line, which suggested pulmonary edema and pleural effusion. Despite furosemide administration and nasal oxygen supplementation, hypertension and respiratory distress were not completely controlled. Finally, cardiac arrest occurred and the patient expired due to TACO 24 hours after the transfusion.

Abstract: This study was aimed to diagnose acid-base disorders of dogs with canine parvoviral enteritis (CPE) and data to establish a rational fluid therapy regimen for patients with CPE. A total of 43 dogs which had clinical signs of CPE and had detected canine parvovirus by polymerase chain reaction, were bled anaerobically from jugular vein at the time of admission. Blood chemical test, determination of electrolytes and blood gas analysis were conducted, and calculated values were obtained from each measured items. The values of blood chemical and electrolytes of dogs with CPE were various depending on the degree of clinical signs, and these tests were not specific to diagnose for CPE. Hypochloremia (20.9%), hyperchloremia (11.6%), hypokalemia (7.0%), hyperkalemia (11.6%), hyponatremia (9.3%) and hypernatremia (18.6%) were diagnosed as abnormalities of electrolytes from 43 dogs with CPE. The 29 out of 43 dogs (67.4%) were metabolic acidosis and 3 dogs (7.0%) were metabolic alkalosis. The acid-base status of 11 dogs out of 43 dogs (25.6%) was normal.

We have designed a new type of bubble oxygenator (KOREA-KIM VENOTHERM OXYGENATOR) made of PVC sheet and deforming mesh incorporated in the heat exchanger, and evaluated in experimental animal for the analysis of it`s efficiency. The Oxygenator has low priming volume with high flow rate up to 6 L/rain, and efficiency of heat exchanger was excellent as 1-$1.5^{\circ}C.$ using total cardiopulmonary bypass method under moderate to deep hypothermia. Average priming volume of 1317 ml with 30% hemodilution method was perfused with an average of 1.1-3.0 L/min.$M^2$of arterial blood and pure oxygen at a rate of 2-3.4 L/min for 49.6 minutes continuously in average. During total cardiopulmonary bypass, average $PaO_2$ was $159.8{\pm}60$mmHg, $PaCO_2$ $41.0{\pm}3$mmHg respectively under $SaO_2$ over 96% with systolic arterial pressure of 70 mmHg and CVP of 5-10 cm$H_2O$. Plasma free Hemoglobin was $7.0{\pm}4$ mg/dl with 25% drop of hemoglobin and hematocrit at the end of cardiopulmonary bypass. This KKV Oxygenator was observed to have excellent capabillty of oxygen and carbon dioxide gas transfer with small amount of blood trauma, and the efficiency of heat exchanger was satisfactory during cooling and rewarming of the bubbled blood. Disadvantages have included the somewhat poor deforming effect due to loose PVC fiber mesh, the extracompact character of Teflon filters, and the rough inner surface of the heat exchanger copper pipes.
