Purpose: According to various medical publications, it is believed that epinephrine should not be injected in fingers. However numerous articles show the successful use of local anesthetic with epinephrine in the digits. Epinephrine-mixed lidocaine solution enables to maintain a bloodless field for operation and provides long duration of local anesthesia when patient was wide awake. Methods: From May 2009 to December 2009, ten patients underwent flexor tendon reconstruction with local anesthesia using epinephrine. No tourniquet was necessary. Before operation, all patients were injected with local anesthetics using 1% lidocaine 20 mL and 0.1% epinephrine 0.1 mL. Results: There was no case of digital necrosis nor gangrene in the epinephrine injection. All 10 patients actively could move the finger through a full range of motion. All procedures were performed without sedation nor tourniquet and we could obtain a good vision of operative field and patients were comfortable. The patient make his or her fingers move through a full range of active motion before the skin is closed. Phentolamine was not required to reverse the vasoconstriction in any patients. Conclusion: The assertation that epinephrine should not be injected into the fingers is clearly no longer valid. The epinephrine injection allowed the authors to adjust flexor tendon surgery without risks associated with general anesthesia. It also enables to ensure longer anesthetic duration and bloodless operative field, and prevent post operative complications. In case of flexor tendon surgery, the use of epinephrine injection is recommended because of the advantages of local anesthesia.

이 연구는 Morphine을 이용한 저작근통증의 조절 효과를 확인하기 위해서 시행되었으며, 경희대학교 치과대학병원 구강내과에 내원한 환자 중 RDC/TMD로 진단된 지원자를 saline 주사군, lidocaine 주사군, morphine 주사군 각각 10명씩 배정하였다. 통증부위에 주사 전, 주사 후 10분, 30분, 60분에 각각 주관적인 통증 평가인 시각유추척도검사, 맥길통증설문지검사 그리고 통증부위표시검사와 객관적인 통증 평가인 압력통증역치검사와 압력통증한계검사를 실시하였다. 검사 후 평가된 자료를 통계 처리하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 주관적인 통증 평가와 객관적인 통증 평가 모두 집단 내 효과가 있었다. (p<0.001) 2. 주관적인 통증 평가인 통증부위표시검사(p<0.001)에서 집단 간 효과가 있었다. 3. 객관적인 통증 평가인 압력통증역치검사(p=0.025)에서 집단 간 효과가 있었다. 4. 주관적인 통증 평가인 통증부위표시검사는 morphine 주사군(p=0.001)이 saline 주사군에 비해서 효과가 있었다. 이상의 연구결과로 저작근에 통증이 있는 환자에게 morphine 주사 시 60분 이내에는 주관적인 평가에서 통증 조절 효과가 있었으며, 향후 시간 연장에 따른 지속적인 추가 연구가 필요 할 것으로 생각된다.

This study used in vivo intracellular recording in rat hippocampus to evaluate the effect of lidocaine and MK-801 on the membrane properties and the synaptic responses of individual neurons to electrical stimulation of the commissural pathway. Cells in control group typically fired in a tonic discharge mode with an average firing frequency of $2.4{\pm}0.9$ Hz. Neuron in MK-801 treated group (0.2 mg/kg, i.p.) had an average input resistance of $3.28{\pm}5.7\;M{\Omega}$ and a membrane time constant of $7.4{\pm}1.8$ ms. These neurons exhibited $2.4{\pm}0.2$ ms spike durations, which were similar to the average spike duration recorded in the neurons of the control group. Slightly less than half of these neurons were firing spontaneously with an average discharge rate of $2.4{\pm}1.1$ Hz. The average peak amplitude of the AHP following the spikes in these groups was $7.4{\pm}0.6$ mV with respect to the resting membrane potential. Cells in MK-801 and lidocaine treated group (5 mg/kg, i.c.v.) had an average input resistance of $3.45{\pm}6.0\;M{\Omega}$ and an average time constant of $8.0{\pm}1.4$ ms. The cells were firing spontaneously at an average discharge rate of $0.6{\pm}0.4$ Hz. Upon depolarization of the membrane by 0.8 nA for 400 ms, all of the tested cells exhibited accommodation of spike discharge. The most common synaptic response contained an EPSP followed by early-IPSP and late-IPSP. Analysis of the voltage dependence revealed that the early-IPSP and late-IPSP were putative $Cl^--and\;K^+-dependent$, respectively. Systemic injection of the NMDA receptor blocker, MK-801, did not block synaptic responses to the stimulation of the commissural pathway. No significant modifications of EPSP, early-IPSP, or late-IPSP components were detected in the MK-801 and/or lidocaine treated group. These results suggest that MK-801 and lidocaine manifest their CNS effects through firing pattern of hippocampal pyramidal cells and neural network pattern by changing the synaptic efficacy and cellular membrane properties.

This study was designed to investigate the effect of intra-articular injection of hyaluronic acid for the treatment of internal derangements of the temporomandibular joint(TMJ). Sixteen patients with internal derangements of TMJ in 1 male and 15 females aged 68 to 18 years comprised the study material. The patients' complaint was limited mouth opening and pain during function. Patients were divided into 3 groups(articular disc displacement with reduction, articular disc displacement without reduction, osteoarthritis group). The preauricular area was disinfected anesthetized locally with 2% lidocaine hydrochloride. Arthrocentesis was performed. Hyaluronic acid(1.5 ㏄) was then injected into the superior compartment of the TMJ. Active range of motion exercises were instituted at approximately 24 hours postoperatively. Antibiotics and NSAID, three times daily by mouth, was prescribed for 3 days. Clinical evaluation of the patients was done before the procedure, immediately after the procedure, final follow-up visit postoperatively. Pain during function was assessed using visual analog scales(VAS). Maximal mouth opening was recorded as a distance between upper incisal edge and lower incisal edge. Intra-articular injection of hyaluronic acid caused significant reduction of pain during function, significant increase of maximal opening range. These findings suggest that intra-articular injection of hyaluronic acid is useful for decreasing patient reports of pain while increasing functional mobility of the mandible in internal derangements of the TMJ.

Aconitine is an anti-inflammatory agent with therapeutic uses in oriental medicine as an analgesic and for treatment of stroke. Because of its sodium channel effect, aconitine can promote undesirable, wide complex tachyarrhythmia. If tachycardia develops during use of aconitine, class Ia and class III anti arrhythmic drugs can be utilized for treatment. However there are no single anti-arrhythmia agents which are uniformly effective. We report a case, characterized by wide complex tachyarrhythmia and severe hypotension, which was successfully treated by simultaneous injections of amiodarone and lidocaine. A 59-year-old woman exhibiting clinical signs of drowsiness as a result of ingesting 6 g of aconitine, was admitted to the emergency department. Initially, wide complex tachyarrhythmia (ventricular tachycardia and pulse rate of 180 beats/min) and severe hypotension (blood pressure of 53/26 mmHg) was observed. After simultaneous injection of amiodarone and lidocaine, the patient's rhythm pattern changed to an accelerated junctional rhythm with ventricular premature complex. Two hours later, the patient's heart pattern became a sinus rhythm. As demonstrated by this case, simultaneous injections of amiodarone and lidocaine can be useful in treating ventricular arrhythmia induced by aconitine.

마약성 진통제와 국소마취제에 의한 지속적 경막외마취는 개흉술후 통증감소를 위한 방법으로 널리 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 지난 1994년 1월부터 1995년 7월까지 본원 흉부외과에서 츠방 혹은 후측방 개흉술을 받은 환자 38명을 대상으로 19명씩 실험군과 대조군으로 구분하여 실험군에 경막외마취를 시행하여 그 효과를 조사하였다. 먼저 lidocaine과 norphine을 섞어 경막서 지속적 외도관을 통해 주사하고 그후 bupivacaine과 morphine을 섞어 술후 5∼6일간 지속투여를 하였다. 대조군에 비해 실험군에서 환자의 통증수치와 상지거상능력과 호흡수는 주사추 30분부터 통계적으로 의미 있게 변화되어 술후 통증이 경감되고 있음을 알 수 있었고, 말초동맥혈 이산화탄소분압은 2시간 후부터 통계적으로 의미 있게 줄어들어 환자가 효과적인 호흡을 하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 술후 재원기간도 의미 있게 줄어들었다. 경막외마취의 주요한 합병증으로는 뇨정체가 있었으나 심각하지는 않았다. 이상의 결과로 우리는 개흉술후 경막외마취가 우수한 통증완화 효과가 있어 술후 폐합병증을 예방하고 술후 빠른 회복에도 좋은 영향을 미치는 것으로 생각한다.

Single subcutaneous injection to SD rats of both sexes was performed to investigate the acute toxicity of new skin allergy-remedy ointment, Banaron. Banaron is composed of lidocaine hydrochloride, chloro-pheniramine maleate, prednisolone acetate, chlorohexidine hydrochloride, methyl salicylate, 1-menthol and d-camphor. The results were as fellows. $LD_{50}$, /TEX> values of Banaron were 8373.6 mg/kg for male and 8260.1 mg/kg for females. Death occurred within 24 hours after administration at doses up to 6600 mg/kg. The main cause of deaths seemed to be respiratory disturbance. General symptoms decreased of activity and respiratory rate, salivation, tremor and loss of consciousness which were commonly observed by some survived animals and all dead animals. No significant gross findings of internal organs and body weight changes in treatment groups in comparison with these of control group were observed at the maximum dose levels in Banaron.
