목적: 아세타졸아마이드를 이용한 뇌혈류 SPECT는 폐쇄성 뇌혈관질환이 있는 환자에서 혈역학적 부전을 평가 하는데 유용하다. 본 연구는 아세타졸아마이드 부하 $^{123}I-IMP$ SPECT를 실시하여 뇌국소부위의 혈역학적 부전의 정도를 정확히 평가할 수 있는지를 살펴보았다. 대상 및 방법: 뇌혈관 질환이 의심되는 18명의 (남: 16, 여: 2, 평균연령 61세) 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 뇌국소부위의 혈관확장 예비능을평가하기 위하여 아세타졸아마이드 투여후 $^{123}I-IMP$ SPECT를 실시하였다. PET은 SPECT 검사 전후로 2주 이내의 간격을 두고 실시하였으며, 뇌혈류, 산소추출분획, 뇌산소대사율 및 뇌혈액량을 구하였다. 모두 46개의 직사각형의 관심영역 (ROIs)을 4개의 다른 뇌단층면에서 직접그리고 병변 부위의 관심영역내에서의 $^{123}I-IMP$ 섭취와 반대측의 동일영역의 관심영역에서 $^{123}I-IMP$ 섭취비율인 AI 를 구하여 PET 에서 얻어진 자료들과 비교하였다. 결과: 18명의 환자의 414 개의 해부학적 영역에서의 뇌의 혈역학적인 평가는 각 환자의 산소수출분획과 뇌혈류/뇌혈액량에 따라 정상 (n=107), stage I (n=117) 또는 stage II (n=140) 로 나누었다. 혈관 확장 예비능을 나타내는 ${\triangle}AI$ (아세타졸아마이드투여시 AI 값-기저상태의 AI 값) 의 값은 정상, stage I 및 stage II 에서 각각 $-6.25{\pm}7.77%,\;-10.38{\pm}10.41%$ 및 $-13.30{\pm}10.51%$으로 세군간에 유의한 차이가 있었다 (p<0.05). 뇌혈관 협착이 있는 대뇌반구에서 ${\triangle}AI$와 뇌혈류량, 산소추출분획 및 뇌혈액량/뇌혈류량의 상관계수는 각각 0.20, -0.28 및 -0.28로 통계적으로 유의한 상관관계를 보였다(p<0.01). 결론: 정상인과 stage I 그리고 stage II 의 혈역학적부전 환자들간의 뇌혈관확장 예비능에 유의한 차이가 있었으며, 이러한 결과로 볼 때 아세타졸아마이드 부하에 대한 국소뇌혈류의 변화는 뇌관류압에 대한 보상적 혈관확장의 정도를 비교적 정확히 반영할 수 있다고 볼 수 있다.

Phalloides syndrome has usually occurred after incidental mushroom ingestion. It is sometimes difficult to differentiate toxic mushrooms from edible ones, especially in lay person because of their morphological similarities. In Korea, Amanita virosa and Amanita subjunquillea have been reported as a cause of fulminant hepatic failure in mushroom poisoning (phalloides syndrome). We report a case of phalloides syndrome who came to death with fulminant hepatic failure even though we planned liver transplantation and used T-PLS(R) (Twin Pulse Life Support) for hemodynamic support while waiting for the donor.

Post-AMI VSD is an infrequent but often catastrophic complication of acute myocardial infarction In general, the mortality is associated with end organ failure due to low output syndrome. Therefore, a stable hemodynamic is necessary to prevent the end organ failure. If a supportive therapy does not accomplish it, surgical intervention should be considered. Recently, we have experinced a case of post-AMI VSD with cardiogenic shock. Early recognition and surgical repair of post-AMI VSD gave us a good result. Postoperative result was satisfactory and recovery was uneventful. We believe that early surgical repair can be lifesaving in the case of post-AMI VSD with cardiogenic shock.

From July 1986 to June 1987, five patients were underwent IABP [intra aortic balloon pulsation] because of sever left heart failure in spite of maximum medication. These patients were reviewed as prophylactic IABP [1 patient], During operation [3 patients] and postoperative IABP [1 patients]. All patients were showed stable hemodynamic status with improved LV function during and after IABP. there was no IABP related complication or mortality. Advanced disease needs more effective methods of mechanical circulatory assistance and heart replacement.

Extra-corporeal Life Support System (ECLS) is the device used in emergency cases to substitute a extracorporeal circulation in open heart surgery, cardiac arrest or in acute cardiopulmonary failure. To obtain the effect of counter-pulsation on hemodynamic response in the ECLS quantitatively, we developed cardiovascular model which consists of 12 compartment model of heldt et al. and 3 compartment model of Schreiner et al. based on windkessel approximation. We compared coronary perfusion, arterial pulse pressure, cardiac output, and left ventricular pressure-volume diagram according to flow configuration such as counter-pulsation, copulsation, and continous flow. When counter-pulsation was applied, 5% higher coronary perfusion, 26% lower pulse pressure, and 2% higher cardiac output than copulsation condition were calculated. We conclude that counter-pulsation configuration in the ECLS is hemodynamically more stable than copulsation and influences the positive effect to recover ventricles.

배경: 역동적 심근성형술에서 골격근 수축에 의한 단기 혈역학적 변화를 관찰하고 이에 미치는 인자를 분석하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 이를 위해 20-30kg 사이의 한국산 잡견 10마리를 두 그룹으로 나눠 심장 상태를 정상과 심부전 상태로 구분하였고 골격근 상태도 활성도 및 수축력의 차이가 나도록 구분하였다. 그룹 A에서는 5마리의 정상 심장상태의 실험견에 심근성형술을 시행한 뒤 8주후 혈역학 검사를 실시하였고, 그룹 B에서는 5마리의 실험견에 8주동안 매주 1 mg/kg의 doxorubicin을 주입하여 만성 심부전 상태를 만들면서 동시에 좌측 광배근의 사전 조건화를 위한 근육훈련을 한후 심근성형술을 시행하고 바로 혈역학 검사를 실시하였다. 결과: 그룹 A의 정상 심장 상태에서 광배근 수축으로 평균 우심방 압력을 제외한 나머지 좌심실 혈역학 지수에는 유의한 변화가 없었다. 그룹 B에서는 광배근 수축으로 심박출량(cardiac output; CO)은 16.7$\pm$7.2%, 좌심실 압력발생 속도(positive pressure development rate of left ventricle; dp/dt)는 9.3$\pm$3.2%, 일회 심박출량(stroke volume; SV)은 16.8$\pm$8.6%, 좌심실 박출작업량(left ventricular stroke work; SW)은 23.1$\pm$9.7% 증가하였고, 좌심실 이완기말압(left ventricular end-diastole pressure; LVEDP)은 32.1$\pm$4.6%, 평균 폐동맥쐐기압(mean pulmonary capillary wedge pressure; mPCWP)은 17.7$\pm$9.1% 감소하였다(p<0.05). 그러나 그룹 A에서 imipramine을 7.5 mg/kg/hour의 속도로 34$\pm$2.6분 투여하여 CO이 17.5$\pm$2.7%, 좌심실 수축기압(left ventricular systolic pressure)이 15.8$\pm$2.5% 감소하고 LVEDP가 54.3$\pm$15.2% 증가한 일시적 급성 심부전 상태를 유도한 뒤(p<0.05), 이 상태에서 광배근을 자극하였더니 CO은 4.5$\pm$1.8%, dp/dt는 3.1$\pm$1.1%, SV는 5.7$\pm$3.6%, SW는 6.9$\pm$4.4% 증가하였고, LVEDP는 11.7$\pm$4.7% 감소하였다(p<0.05). 그룹 A의 급성 심부전 상태와 그룹 B의 만성 심부전 상태에서 모두 광배근 수축으로 변화한 CO, dp/dt, SV, SW, LVEDP 같은 좌심실 혈역학 지표들의 변화의 폭을 비교하면 그룹 B에서 그룹 A에서보다 더 컸다(p<0.05). 그룹 A에서 유도된 급성 심부전 상태와 그룹 B의 만성 심부전 상태가 CO, dp/dt, SV, SW, LVEDP 같은 좌심실 혈역학 지표들 면에서 통계학적으로 차이가 없고(p>0.05), 육안적으로 광배근을 관찰하였을 때 그룹 A에서는 광배근의 유착 및 염증소견이 모두에서 있었고 그중 2마리에서는 광배근의 수축을 목격할 수 없었던 반면, 그룹 B에서는 5마리 모두에서 광배근이 활발하게 수축하였다는 점을 함께 고려하면 그룹 B에서의 더 큰 증폭 효과가 광배근의 활성도 및 수축력의 차이로부터 기인한다고 평가할 수 있다. 결론: 이상에서 역동적 심근성형술의 수축기 혈역학적 변화는 심부전 상태에서만 긍정적인 개선 효과를 나타내며, 그 효과의 극대화를 위해서는 근육의 수축력을 유지하는 것이 매우 중요함을 알 수 있다.

Tetralogy of Fallot is the most common cyanotic congenital anomaly, which needs some operation for the survival. Perioperative mortality of the Tetralogy of Fallot was lowered remarkably in recent years, but some discussions were presented for the criteria of the corrective surgery and the corrective method of the pulmonary stenosis. In the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery of the Chunbug National University Hospital, 17 cases of tetralogy of Fallot were corrected totally from July in 1983 to August in 1984. In correction of the pulmonary stenosis, transannular patch was applied in B patients, infundibulectomy in 5, RVOT patch without transannular patch in 3, and isolated patches on RVOT and pulmonary trunk. Preoperative and early postoperative hemodynamic study revealed increased RA pressure in transannular patch group, which was significant statistically. [p<0.01]. Clinically, perioperative death occurred only in transannular patch group, and right heart failure signs including hepatomegaly, ascites, pleural effusion and peripheral edema were high in frequency in transannular patch group.

Purpose: This study investigated the effects of home-based exercise intensity on the aerobic capacity and 1 year re-hospitalization rate in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). Methods: Forty seven patients with CHF (males 33, females 14, age $61.3{\pm}9.8years$) participated in this study. The patients were allocated randomly to 3 groups in accordance with home-based exercise intensity: no home based exercise (NHE, 40%, n=19), moderate intensity home-based exercise (MIHE, 43%, n=20), and high intensity home based exercise (HIHE, 17%, n=8). All patients completed the symptom-limited cardiopulmonary exercise (CPX) test safely at the cardiac rehabilitation hospital. Results: The NHE group significantly showed lower peak $VO_2$ and a higher $VE/VCO_2$ slope than the MIHE (p<0.05) and HIHE (p<0.01) groups. On the other hand, the NHE group did not show significant differences in the other hemodynamic responses, such as heart rate (HR) max, HR reserve, maximal systolic blood pressure (SBP), and SBP reserve. Nine out of 19 NHE patients (47%) were re-hospitalized related to heart disease and two out of 20 MIHE (10%) patients were re-hospitalized, but nobody in the HIHE group were re-hospitalized within 1 year from the CPX test. Conclusion: In patients with CHF, home-based self-exercise is one of the important factors for reducing the re-hospitalization rate. In addition, improved aerobic capacity is strongly associated with a lower re-hospitalization rate. In particular, re-hospitalized CHF patients showed significant differences in respiratory parameters and hemodynamic parameters compared to the non-re-hospitalized patients.

Background : Ventricular assist devices(VADs) are being used for patients in postcvardiotomy cardiogenic shock status bridge to cardiac transplant settings and in post-myocardial infarction cardiogenic shock. The VAD which was developed at the Deparment of medical engineering in Dankook University College of Medicine was a pneumatically driven device and can maintain pulsatile flow. The goal of this study is to develop animal experimental models using the VAD and to clarify the reliability and hemodynamic property adequacy of end organ perfusion durability and severity of thrombotic-hemolytic tendency of the device. Material and Method : The pneumatic VAD was applied to 8 adult female lambs, We examined some hemodynamic parameters such as arterial blood pressure pulmonary capillary wedge pressure(pcwp) pulmonary artery pressure(PAP) left atrial pressure hour urine output cardiac index VAD flow EKG to determine the reliability of the VAD and hemodynamic compatibility of the experimental animals within 24 hours of experiment. We also observed the end organ perfusion durability of the VAD and thrombotic-hemolytic property of the VAD after 24 hours of VAD insertion. Result: We could monitor all hemodynamic parameters including pcwp PAP cardiac index EKG, adn hour urine as true clinical settings. We observed that the reliability of the VAD was excellent and the hemodynamic property of the experimental animal and end organ perfusion were adequate within 24 hours of experiment. In four lambs surviving 24 hours after insertion the reliability of the VAD and end organ perfusion were excellent and no thrombotic-hemolytic tendency was noted. However after 15 days of experiment the diaphragm of the VAD was torn and it was recommende that the durability of the VAD should be extended. Conclusion : e conclude that the pneumatic VAD developed at Dankook University Biomedical Engineering has good hemodynamic property and low thromboembolic tendency and presents adequate end organ perfusion but we noted that the durability of the device should be expanded further. It will be possible to do more reliable experiment in the future according to the animal experimental method developed in this study especially with the heart failure models.

Primary cardiac tumors are known to be rare. Of the benign primary tumors, rhabdomyoma predominates in neonates and infants. Tuberous sclerosis is found in hall of the patients with rhabdomyomas. Rhabdomyomas demonstrate benign pathological characteristics and may regress spontaneously that resection of the intracavitary obstructing portion of these tumors are recommended. We performed resection of intraatrial rhabdomyoma which had been obstructing mitral valve orifice and caused heart failure in a neonate. Postoperatively, fungal endocarditis developed and after 3 days, rapid growth and extension of the vegetation in the aorta obstructed the flow through the ascending aorta and resulted in hemodynamic deterioration.
