복와위는 신체 후부 노출이 필요한 척추 수술을 위해 주로 사용되고 있으며 수술부위로의 접근이 용이하고 수술 도중에 척추를 안정적으로 유지해주는 장점이 있다. 하지만 전신마취하에 있는 환자를 앙와위에서 복와위로의 전환은 여러 가지 부작용을 동반하며 특히 순환기계의 변화를 초래할 수 있다. 이를 줄이기 위해 다양한 복와위 전용 수술대들이 연구 개발되어 임상에 사용되고 있다. 이에 저자들은 앙와위에서 복와위로의 체위 변환 시에 Jackson spinal surgery table의 이용이 체위에 의한 압박 때문에 생기는 환자의 순환기계 변화를 얼마나 효과적으로 줄여줄 수 있는지 알아보고자 하였다. 본 연구는 추간판탈출증, 퇴행성척추전방전위증, 척추협착증의 진단 하에 본원 정형외과와 신경외과에서 수술을 받기로 예정된 환자 중 미국 마취과학회 신체등급 분류 1급 또는 2급에 해당하는 성인 환자 30명을 대상으로 하였다. 연구 대상 환자의 성별은 남자가 15명, 여자가 15명이었고, 심혈관계나 호흡기계 질환이 있는 환자는 연구 대상에서 제외하였다. 모든 환자는 마취전투약으로 수술 시작 1시간 전에 glycopyrrolate 0.2 mg, fentanyl $1{\mu}g/kg$을 근주하였으며 수술실에 도착한 후 비침습적 자동 혈압 측정기, 심전도 및 맥박산소 계측기를 거치하였다. Thiopental sodium과 vecuronium으로 마취를 유도하였으며 환자의 의식소실과 충분한 근이완을 확인한 후 기관내 삽관을 시행하였다. Enflurane 1.5-2.0 vol%와 $O_2$, $N_2O$ 각각 2 L/min을 사용하여 마취유지를 하였으며 급격한 활력 징후의 변동으로 마취유지가 용의치 않은 경우는 연구 대상에서 제외시켰다. 환자의 활력 징후 안정 후 요골 동맥에 카테터를 거치하여 지속적으로 동맥압을 측정하였고, 우측 쇄골하 정맥에 중심정맥 카테터를 거치하여 중심정맥압을 측정하였다. 부분재호흡 심박출량 감시기 ($NICO^{(R)}$, Novametrix Medical Systems INC., USA)를 통해 비침습적으로 환자의 심박출량을 측정하였다. 앙와위에서 복와위로 체위변경 직전에 심박출 계수, 심박출량, 평균동맥압, 심박수, 중심정맥압을 측정하여 앙와위의 값으로 삼았으며, 척추 수술 전용 수술대인 Jackson spinal surgery table을 사용하여 복와위를 취하였다. 복와위로 체위 변경 뒤 심박출 계수, 심박출량, 평균동맥압, 심박수, 중심정맥압을 측정하여 복와위의 값으로 기록하였다. 본 연구 결과 앙와위와 복와위의 혈역학적 지수의 비교시 심박수와 평균동맥압은 별다른 차이가 없었다. 중심정맥압은 유의한 정도는 아니지만 감소 소견을 보여 수술시 출혈의 위험성을 감소시킬 것으로 생각된다. 심박출량과 심박출 계수도 유의한 감소 소견을 보였으나 convex saddle table을 이용한 경우와 kneechest position을 취한 경우보다 적은 변화를 보여 Jackson spinal surgery table의 사용은 유용할 것으로 사료된다. 그러나 Jackson spinal surgery table을 사용하여 복부와 흉부에 과도한 압력이 가해지지 않더라도 유의한 심박출량 감소가 있을 수 있음을 유념해야 할 것이다. 특히 심폐여력이 부족한 환자들에 있어서는 심박출량의 감소는 위험한 결과를 초래할 수 있으므로 복와위에 의한 생리적 변화에 관한 충분한 이해와 함께 마취 시 보다 적극적인 감시와 관리가 요구된다고 여겨진다.

Forty two patients with chronic constrictive pericarditis, who were admitted to the Yonsei University College of medicine over a period of 18 years from January, 1970 to August, 1988, were analyzed retrospectively. Mean age of the patient was 33.5 year ranging from 6.8 to 60 years old. Male to female ratio was 1.3 to 1. Twenty-one cases [50%] were tuberculous origin [based on either associated pulmonary tuberculosis and/or caseous necrosis in thickened pericardial specimen] and 17 cases [40.5%] were idiopathic [non specific chronic inflammatory change was considered to be idiopathic]. Dyspnea on exertion was evident in 30 cases [71.4%] and abdominal distention in 21 cases [50%]. On physical examination, hepatomegaly [83.3%], neck vein distention [54.8%], distant heart sound [47.6%] and ascites were found. Thirty-nine patients showed low voltage of QRS and/or T wave flattening or inversion on EKG. Thirty-one cases had undergone cardiac catheterization which showed data compatible with chronic constrictive pericarditis. Midsternostomy group [n=15] had shown the most remarkable CVP decline [12.20 mmHg] as compared with bilateral submammary incision group [n=25, 8.96 mmHg] and left thoracotomy group [n=2, 7.75 mmHg] but difference was not significant statistically There was four early death among 42 patients [9.5%] including 3 cases of left ventricular failure and one cardiac tamponade. Main postoperative complications were wound infection [6 cases] and arrhythmia [3 cases]. Follow-up of 24 patients [mean; 55.3 months, ranging from 2 months to 155 months] revealed good functional status.

We scrutinized the 64 cases of TGA and Taussig-Bing anomaly who underwent Senning and Mustard operations from Jan. 1981 to May 1988. The ratio of male to female was 45; 19, and the age at operation varied from 2 months to 18 years [mean 18.9*32.9 months]. The in-hospital mortality was in 24 cases [37.5%] and the major causes were myocardial failure and congestive heart failure associated with arrhythmias. The risk factors for hospital mortality were complex TGA, prolonged bypass time and high postoperative CVP. In addition, mortality increased during the first year the procedure was used. Late mortality occurred in 6 cases and the major causes was congestive heart failure, and there was not any significant risk factor noted in late mortality. Early arrhythmia developed in 37.5%, all of which were transient and self limited and 7 cases of early mortality were related to the arrhythmias. Late arrhythmias developed in 8 cases, but 7 cases were transient. One case died with junctional tachycardia. Of significance the one case that died late by arrhythmia had a similar junctional tachycardia in the early postoperative period. The survival rate in all cases disregarding initial in-hospital mortality 1YSR 89.8% and 5YSR 84.3%, but because of short duration of follow up this is not significant. We concluded that early hospital mortality could be decreased by operating at an earlier age and by adjusting the appropriate operation method.

Various factors influencing the lymph flow from thoracic duct were investigated in an attempt to evaluate their contributing degree and the mechanisms. Sixteen mongrel dogs weighing between 10 and 16 kg were anesthetized and polyethylene catheters were inserted into the thoracic duct and femoral veins. Arterial blood pressure, heart rate, central venous pressure, lymph pressure and lymph flow were measured under various conditions. Electrical stimulation of left sciatic nerve, stepwise increase of central venous pressure, manual application of rhythmical depressions onto abdomen, injection of hypertonic saline solution and histamine infusion were employed. Measurement of cental venous pressure was performed through the recording catheter inserted into abdominal inferior vena cava. Changes in central venous pressure were made by an air-ballooning catheter located higher than the tip of the recording catheter in the inferior vena cava. Lymph flow from thoracic duct was measured directly with a graduated centrifuge tube allowing the lymph to flow freely outward through the inserted cannula. The average side pressure of thoracic lymph was $1.1\;cmH_2O$ and lymph flow was 0.40 ml/min or 1.9 ml/kg-hr. Hemodynamic parameters including lymph flow were measure immediately before and after (or during) applying a condition. Stimulation of left sciatic nerve with a square wave (5/sec, 2 msec, 10V) caused the lymph flow to increase 1.4 times. The pattern of lymph flow from thoracic duct was not continuous throughout the respiratory cycle, but was continuous only during Inspiration. Slow and deep respiration appeared to increase the lymph flow than a rapid and shallow respiration. Relationship between central venous pressure and the lymph flow revealed a relatively direct proportionality; Regression equation was Lymph Flow (ml/kg-hr)=0.09 CVP$(cmH_2O)$+0.55, r=0.67. Manual depressions onto the abdomen in accordance with the respiratory cycle caused the lymph flow to increase most remarkably, e.g,. 5.5 times. The application of manual depressions showed a fluctuation of central venous pressure superimposed on the respiratory fluctuation. Hypertonic saline solution (2% NaCl) administered Intravenously by the amount of 10 m1/kg increased the lymph flow 4.6 times. The injection also increased arterial blood pressure, especially systolic Pressure, and the central venous pressure. Slow intravenous infusion of histamine with a rate of 14-32 ${\mu}g/min$ resulted in a remarkable increase in the lymph flow (4.7 times), in spite of much decrease in the blood pressure and a slight decrease in the central venous pressure.

전신마취, 부위 또는 국소 마취시, 그리고 향부정맥제로 술중 및 중환자실에서 흔히 쓰이는 lidocaine의 용량과, 국소 마취제로 인한 중추 신경계의 독성을 예방 또는 중단시키기 위해 사용되는 diazepam의 전투여시 이로 인한 심혈관계 변화 및 lidocaine의 혈중농도를 관찰, 측정하여 환자의 관리 및 치료에 도움을 얻고자 본 실험을 하였다. Nitrous oxide, halothane으로 마취된 개에서 근육이완제 사용 후 조절호흡하에서 혈중 이산화탄소를 35-45mmHg로 유지하면서 국소 마취체인 lidocaine의 용량을 100 mcg/kg/min, 200 mcg/kg/min, 300 mcg/kg/min로 각각 30분간 지속적 침제하면서, diazepam 전투여 유무에 따른 심혈 역학치의 변화 및 lidocaine의 혈중농도를 측정하고, 억제된 심혈관계에 $CaCl_2$를 투여하여 회복 정도를 관찰하였던 바 아래와 같은 결과를 얻었다. Lidocaine의 지속적 침제량이 증가됨에 따라 심혈관계의 억제가 심하게 나타났으며 평균 동맥압, 심장지수, 일회 박출지수, 좌심실 박출 작업지수, 우심실 박출 작업지수 등은 감소하였고 (p<0.05), 폐동맥 쐐기압, 중심 정맥압, 전신혈관 저항지수 등은 증가하였으나 (p<0.05), 심박동수, 평균 폐동맥압, 폐혈관 저항지수의 변화는 거의 없었다. Lidocaine 100 mcg/kg/min 지속적 침제시는 diazepam을 투여한 II군에서만 평균 동맥압의 의의있는 감소를 보였으며 (p<0.05), lidocaine의 혈중농도는 diazepam투여하지 않은 I군에서는 $3.97{\pm}0.22$에서 $4.48{\pm}0.36$ mcg/ml 범위였고 II 군에서는 $3.70{\pm}0.32$에서 $4.10{\pm}0.22$ mcg/ml범위였다. Lidocaine 200 mcg/kg/min의 지속적 침제시는 I군에서는 평균 동맥압의 감소, 중심정액압의 증가를 나타내었고 (p<0.05), II 군에서는 심장지수의 감소, 폐동백 쐐기압의 증가를 나타내었으며 (p<0.05), lidocaine의 혈중농도는 I군은 $7.50{\pm}0.66$에서 $7.91{\pm}0.77$ mcg/ml, II군에서는 $7.64{\pm}0.79$에서 $8.23{\pm}1.18$ mcg/ml범위로 증가하였다. Lidocaine 300 mcg/kg/min의 지속적 침제시는 I군에서는 평균동맥압, 일회 박출지수, 좌심실 박출 작업지수의 감소가 있었고 (p<0.05), 폐동맥 쐐기압, 중심 정맥압, 전신혈관 저항지수의 증가를 나타내었다 (p<0.05). II군에서는 심장지수, 일회 박출지수, 좌심실 박출 작업지수의 감소가 있었으며 (p<0.05), 폐동맥 쐐기압, 중심 정맥압, 전신혈관 저항지수의 증가를 나타내었다 (p<0.05). 그러나 심박동수, 폐동맥압의 변화는 거의 관찰할 수 없었다. 또한 이때의 혈중 lidocaine의 농도는 I군에서는 $11.30{\pm}2.11$에서 $11.83{\pm}0.59$ mcg/ml범위 로, II군에서는 $12.95{\pm}0.71$에서 $13.79{\pm}0.82$mcg/ml의 범위로 나타내었다. $CaCl_2$ 투여 후는 억제된 심장지수, 일회 박출지수, 전신혈관 저항지수, 폐혈관 저항지수, 좌심실 박출작업지수 및 우심실 박출 작업지수는 회복시켰으나 (p<0.05), 폐동맥 쐐기압, 중심정맥압 등은 오히려 억제시켰다 (p<0.05). 이상에서 자율신경계에 손상이 없으며 산혈증 및 과탄산증이 없는 개에서는 lidocaine의 높은 혈중 농도치에서도 혈역학에 내성이 있었으며, ljdocaine의 중추신경계 독성의 예방 및 치료 목적으로 사용되는 diazepam의 전투여 시에도 추가적인 심혈관계의 억제가 없음을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 자율신경계 이상이 있거나 자율신경계를 억압할 수 있는 약을 사용할 때 또는 산혈증, 과탄산증 및 저산소증이 동반된 환자에 사용할 때에는 세심한 주의가 요할 것으로 생각된다.

This study is an attempt to analyze the physical load by the type of the nursing tasks at the neurosurgical ICU nurses through the quantitative analysis of the working postures by the type of the nursing tasks with the OWAS(Ovako Working Postures Analysis System). Data collection was conducted through the video recording of the 13 nurses working at the neurosurgical ICU. For the analysis of the work postures by the type of the nursing tasks, and were interviewed regarding the subjective degree of the difficulties with the work postures related to the tasks. Collected data was analyzed through the WinOWAS program. The results were as follows : AC3 or AC4 tasks among the 18 nursing tasks types are "occupied bed making and change of the patient gown", "back massage", "suction", "elimination management", "change of position", "adjustment of bed", "helping the patient to move","measurement of CVP"and "measurement of urine volume". It appears that these tasks are harmful to the musculoskeletal system and the improvement or change of the work is required. The results stated above indicate that improper working postures during the nursing tasks influence the musculoskeletal system. Therefore, making use of assistant devices for the improvement of the working environment at the nursing tasks, based on human technological diagnoses, is required regarding the duty types with massive work pressure known to be harmful to the musculoskeletal system among those performed by the nurses. And there is a need of the education about the employment and maintenance of the vocational back pain prevention.

Certain oriental medication have been shown to be effective in decreasing pulmonary vascular resistance and increasing cardiac output in primary pulmonary artery pressure secondary to pulmonary edema. So oleic acid was administered in 14 dogs in order to induce acute lung injury. And we studied the hemodynamics and blood gas changes of Pyengpaetang(50mg, 100mg) with continuous postive pressure was ventilation in pulmonary edema. The pulmonary edema group, arterial oxygenation was improved after 5 and $10cmH_2O$ PEEP(positive end expiratory pressure), but cardiovascular system was depressed. Blood pressure and cardiac output were decreased, and CVP, MP AP, PCWP were increased. In Pyengpaetang(50mg) group, mean aortic pressure was decreased and PCWP(pulmonary capillary wedge pressure) was decreased remarkably, while there was a significant increase in cardiac output. And there was improvement in $PaO_2$ and $PaCO_2$ without hemodynamic changes after applying 5cm $H_2O$ PEEP, but arterial blood gases$(PaO_2,\;PaCO_2)$ were improved, while cardiovascular effects were depressed after cm $H_2O$ PEEP. In Pyengpaetang(100mg) treated group, there was no significant hemodynamic change. But mean pulmonary arterial pressure was significantly increased, and cardiac output was decreased significantly after applying the more degree of PEEP. And blood gases were not changed significantly after applying the more degree of PEEP. The above results suggest that the effects of Pyengpaetang(50mg) group is superior to those of Pyengpaetang(100mg) group on the effects of hemodynamics and gas exchanges in acute lung injury in dogs. So we can conclude that lower degree PEEP 5cm $H_2O$ is more beneficial in Pyengpaetang(50mg) treated group.

For years, physicians and anatomists have been interested in the heart that has one functioning ventricle. Various terms have been suggested for this entity including single ventricle, common ventricle, double-inlet left ventricle, cor biatriatum triloculare, and primitive ventricle. In this report, the term "single ventricle" is utilized as suggested by Van Praagh, and is defined as that congenital cardiac anomaly in which a common or separate atrioventricular valves open into a ventricular chamber from which both great arterial trunks emerge. An outlet chamber, or infundibulum, may or may not be present and give rise to the origin of either of the great arteries. This definition excludes the entity of mitral and tricuspid atresia. An 11 year old cyanotic boy was admitted chief complaints of exertional dyspnea and frequent upper respiratory infection since 2 weeks after birth. He was diagnosed as inoperable cyanotic congenital heart disease, and remained without any corrective treatment up to his age of 11 year when he suffered from aggravation of symptoms and signs of congestive heart failure for 2 months before this admission. On 22nd of May 1979, he was admitted for total corrective operation under the impression of tricuspid atresia suggested by a pediatrician. Physical check revealed deep cyanosis with finger and toe clubbing, and grade V systolic ejection murmur with single second heart sound was audible at the left 3rd intercostal space. Development was moderate in height [135 cm] and weight[28Kg]. Routine lab findings were normal except increased hemoglobin [21.1gm%], hematocrit [64 %], and left axis deviation with left ventricular hypertrophy on EKG. Cardiac catheterization and angiography revealed 1-transposition of aorta, pulmonic valvular stenosis, double inlet of a single ventricle with d-loop, and normal atriovisceral relationship [Type III C solitus according to the classification of Van Praagh]. At operation, longitudinal incision at the outflow tract of right ventricle in between the right coronary artery and its branch [LAD from RCA] revealed high far anterior aortic valve which had fibrous continuity with mitral annulus, and pulmonic valve was stenotic up to 4 mm in diameter positioned posterolaterally to the aorta. Ventricular septum was totally defective, and one markedly hypertrophied moderator band originated from crista supraventricularis was connected down to the imaginary septum of the ventricular cavity as a pseudoseptum of the ventricle. Size of the defect was 3X3 cm2 in total. Patch closure of the defect with a Teflon felt of 3.5 x 4 cm2 was done with interrupted multiple sutures after cut off of the moderator band, which was resutured to the artificial septum after reconstruction of the ventricular septum. Pulmonic valvotomy was done from 4 mm to 11 mm in diameter thru another pulmonary arteriotomy incision, and right ventriculotomy wound was closed reconstructing the right ventricular outflow tract with pericardial autograft of 3 x 4 cm2. Atrial septal defect of 2 cm in diameter was closed with 3-0 Erdeck suture, and atrial wall was sutured also when rectal temperature reached from 24`C to 35.5`C. Complete A-V block was managed with temporary external pacemaker with a pacing rate of 110/min. thru myocardial wire, and arterial blood pressure of 80/50 mmHg was maintained with Isuprel or Dopamine dripping under the CVP of 25-cm saline. Consciousness was recovered one hour after the operation when his blood pressure reached 100 /70 mmHg, but vital signs were not stable, and bleeding from the pericardial drainage and complete anuria were persisted until his heart could not capture the pacemaker impulse, and patient died of low output syndrome 320 min after the operation.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to identify the effects of tracheal suction and the effects of different methods of bronchodilator inhalation (Ultrasonic nebulizer: MDI puff, MDI puff with spacer) in VSD surgery patients. Material & Method: From June 2001 to March 2002, sixty consecutive patients were randomly assigned to a control group (n= 15), ultrasonic nebulizer group (n=15), metered dose inhalation (MDI) puff group (n=15) and MDI with spacer group (n=15). Vital signs (HR, BP, CVP), ABGA and pulmonary functions were measured before suction (baseline for suction), after suction, 15 minutes after suction (base of bronchodilator inhalation), 30 minutes after bronchodilator inhalation, and 2 hours after bronchodilator inhalation. Stastistical analysis was performed using SPSS software. Repeated measure ANOVA was used to examine the effects of tracheal suction. One way ANOVA with Bonferroni's correction and multiple range test (the least significant difference test) were used to examine the effects of albuterol inhalation. Result: 1. Heart .ate increased significantly immediately after suction (p<.01) and recovered 15 minutes after suction. 2. $PaO_2$ and PH decreased significantly immediately after suction (p<.05) and $PaO_2$ recovered 15 minutes after suction. $PaCO_2$ increased immediately after suction and significantly 15 minutes after suction (p<.01). But changes in vital signs and ABGA were within the normal range. 3. Tidal volume decreased significantly 15 minutes after suction (p<.05). 4. Changes of HR and tidal volume were greater in the nebuizer group compared to the other groups (p<.05) 30 minutes after bronchodilator inhalation and recovered 2 hours after bronchodilator inhalation. 5. Changes of airway deadspace was greater in the nebulizer group compared to the control group and MDI puff group 30 minutes after albuterol inhalation (p<.05) and at 2 hours (p<.01). Conclusion: Tracheal suction did not have significant effect on vital signs and pulmonary functions after OHS. Although the methods of bronchodilator inhalation did not showed any significant difference on pulmonary function, the nebulizer method increased $PaO_2$ (20%) and tidal volume transiently. If the patient needs bronchodilator inhalation with bronchospasm after OHS, the nebulizer method is the best choice. More study on the effects of bronchodilator inhalation in bronchospasm group is needed.
