배경: 흉부 및 흉복부 대동맥 수술시에 발생하는 척수의 허혈성 손상에 의한 신경학적 합병증은 발병 전의 예측이 어려울 뿐만 아니라 중증의 장애를 남기게 된다. 본 연구에서는 허혈성 심근 질환 치료에 쓰이고 있는 Trimetazidine(이하 TMZ)의 척수의 허혈성 손상에 대한 보호 효과를 동물실험모델에서 실험하였다. 대상 및 방법: 다 자란 New-Zealand White Rabbits 33마리를 대조군(Group 1, N-17)과 실험군(Group 2, N=16)으로 나누어 실험하였다. 수술은 대조군에서는 전신마취 후 정중개복하여 좌측 신동맥 기시 직하부위에서 복부대동맥을 혈관 점자로 30분간 폐쇄하여 척수 허혈을 유발하였으며, 실험군에서는 TMZ 3mg/kg을 대동맥 겸자전 투여하였다. 수술 2시간 후, 24시간 후, 48시간 후에 Modified Talrov scale에 의한 운동능력을 평가하였으며 술 후 48시간에 요천추부 척수를 적출하여 조직검사를 시행하였다. 결과: 대조군과 실험군에서 각각 7 마리(17마리 중 10마리 사망)와 11마리(16마리 중 5마리 사망)가 실험 종료가지 생존하여 척수 조직을 채취하였다. Modified Talrov scale은 대조군과 실험군에서 각각 수술 2시간 후 1.13 $\pm$ 1.25와 3.20 $\pm$ 0.77, 24시간 후 1.45 $\pm$ 1.57와 3.50 $\pm$ 0.76, 48시간 후 1.86 $\pm$ 1.86와 3.91 $\pm$ 0.30이었다(p$\leq$0.05). 척수의 조직학적 검사에서는 신경학적 결손이 큰 대조군(Group 1)의 척수조직에서 허혈성 손상이 더 심하게 일어난 것이 관찰되었다. 결론: TMZ은 동물실험에서 척수의 일과성 허혈성 손상에 대하여 통계적으로 유의한 척수 보호효과를 나타내었다.

Background: With open heart surgery(OHS), it has been recognized that many postoperative complications and postperfusion syndrome are associated with the activations of complements and leulocytes. Recently, some investigators also demonstrated that interlukin-6(IL-6) linked highly with postperfusion syndrome. The puropose of this study was to investigate the sequential changes of the IL-6 and to clarify each IL-6 relationship to the complements(C3, C4) and inflammatory response following cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB). Material and Method: To determine serum levels of IL-6, complements, leukocytes, and biochemistric markers of liver and renal function, blood samples were taken from th radial artery in 30 adult patients undergoing OHS with CPB. Result: Serum IL-6 levels incrased significantly at 10 minutes after CPB-on(CPB-10) in comparison with the control levels and reached the peak at CPB-off(p<0.05). Serum complement levels declined rapidly at CPB-10 and remained at the lower levels during CPB(p<0.01). Sequential changes of IL-6 levels had positive correlations with the changes of total leukocytes and neutrophil fractions(p<0.05), but had negative correlations with lymphocyte fractions(p<0.05). Changes of C3 related postively to monocyte fractions(p<0.05). Postoperative levels of total protein and albumin, decreased significantly in comparison with the control levels(p<0.01), while the postoperative levels of AST(aspartate transaminase) and bilirubin increased (p<0.01). At CPB-off, IL-6 levels had negative correlations with total protein and albumin levels(r=-0.60, -0.47 respectively, p<0.05), whereas C3 levels had positive correlations with albumin levels(r=0.40, p<0.05). IL-6 levels, as well as neutrophil fractions, had positive correlations with aortic clamp time(ACT) and total bypass time(TBT) (IL-6; r=0.82, 0.79 respectively, neutrophil fractions; r=0.50, 0.56 respectively, p<0.05), wheres lymphocyte frations and albumin levels had negative correlations whith ACT and TBT(lymphocyte fractions; r=-0.52, -0.58 respectively, albumin; r=-0.58, -0.55 respectively, p<0.05). Conclusion: These data showed that elevated production of serum IL-6 during CPB may play a pivotal role in systemic inflammatory responses and prologed CPB period may be assosiated with more sever postperfusion syndromes.

Leriche 증후군 환자에서 병변이 신동맥 상방까지 진행된 양상을 보일 경우, 직접적인 대동맥-대퇴동맥 우회술이 불가능 할 수 있어 현재까지 비해부학적 우회술 등이 많이 행해지고 있다. 그러나 장기간의 혈관 개통율 측면에서 볼 때 그리 매우 좋은 결과를 보이지 않고 있어, 여러 가지 수술 방법이 시도되고 있다. 통증으로 인해 보행에 제약을 받고 있던 48세 Leriche 증후군 환자에서 14 mm 인조혈관과 14-7-7 mm Y자형 인조혈관을 이용하여 흉부하행대동맥-양측 대퇴동맥 우회술을 시행하였다. 수술은 좌측 후측방 개흉술, 개복술 및 양측 대퇴부위 절개를 이용하여 흉부 하행 대동맥 및 대퇴동맥에 측단문합으로 인조혈관을 연결하였고, 두 인조혈관을 단단문합하여 수술을 진행하였다. 수술 후 환자는 별다른 문제없이 회복하여 퇴원하였다. 퇴원 후 6개월째 경과 양호한 상태로 외래 통해 관찰 중이다. 흉부하행대동맥-양측 대퇴동맥 우회술은 직접적인 대동맥-대퇴동맥 우회술이 어려운 경우 충분히 고려해 볼 수 있는 방법으로 생각된다.

말기 신부전 환자의 생명 유지를 위한 혈액투석 치료에 있어서 지속적으로 개존상태가 유지되고 충분한 혈액이 관류되는 투석 경로의 확보는 매우 중요하다. 동정맥루 조성술 시행 후 조기 폐쇄로 인해 투석을 시행하지 못하는 경우, 환자는 경정맥 또는 대퇴정맥 등의 중심 정맥 삽관을 반복적으로 시행 받아 혈액투석을 유지해야 하며 경제적, 시간적 손실을 감수해야 하는 어려움을 겪게 된다. 대상 및 방법: 자가 혈관을 이용한 동정맥루 조성술에 있어 조기개존율에 영향을 미치는 요인을 파악하고, 이를 향상시키기 위해서 2002년 6월부터 2003년 5월까지 1년 간 말기 신부전 환자에게 시행한 총 85예의 동정맥루 수술 중 두부정맥(cephalic vein)과 요골동맥(radial artery)의 단측문합(end-to-side anastomisis)을 시행한 49예를 대상으로 임상분석을 하였다. 걸과: 연구대상 49예에서 조기개존율은 79.6%였다. 환자의 나이나 성별, 고혈압과 당뇨병 유무에 따른 개존율의 차이는 없었으며 환자의 체질량지수 및 고혈압과 당뇨의 유병기간, 술 전 듀플렉스 검사로 측정한 요골동맥의 직경에 따른 조기개존율의 차이는 통계적으로 유의하지 않았다. 수술 전 듀플렉스 검사로 측정한 두부정맥의 직경과 수술 시 측정한 동정맥루의 혈류량이 조기개존율과 유의한 양의 상관관계를 나타내었고, 특히 혈관직경 2.7mm가 초과되는 군에서는 조기 폐쇄 없이 개존율이 100%로 유지되었으며 동정맥루의 혈류량이 100mL/min 이하인 군에서는 조기개존율 33.3%로 100 mL/min초과인 군의 82.2%와 비교할때 유의하게 조기개존율이 낮았다. 결론: 동정맥루에 사용되는 정맥의 직경은 개존율과 밀접한 관련이 있어 가능한 한 직경이 큰 정맥을 선택해야 하며 연구에 따라 다양한 기준이 보고되어 왔으나 보다 정확한 예후 판단을 위해서는 정맥의 직경뿐 아니라 혈관 유출로의 혈류와 협착상태 등에 대한 파악이 필요할 것으로 생각된다. 본 연구에서 측정한 수술 시 동정맥루의 혈류량을 기준으로 판단할때, 100 mL/min 이하의 혈류량을 나타내는 radiocephalic fistula에서는 혈류량 감소의 원인을 찾아 교정술을 시행하고 그 이후에도 혈류량이 증가하지 않을 경우 다른 부위의 혈관 또는 인조혈관의 사용을 고려하여야만 할 것이다.

Background: Paraplegia is a devastating complication following operations on the thoracoabdominal aorta. We investigated whether histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate (HTK) solution could reduce the extent of ischemia/reperfusion (IR) spinal cord injuries in a rat model using a direct delivery method. Methods: Twenty-four Sprague-Dawley male rats were randomly divided into four groups. The sham group (n=6) underwent a sham operation, the IR group (n=6) underwent only an aortic occlusion, the saline infusion group (saline group, n=6) underwent an aortic occlusion and direct infusion of cold saline into the occluded aortic segment, and the HTK infusion group (HTK group, n=6) underwent an aortic occlusion and direct infusion of cold HTK solution into the occluded aortic segment. An IR spinal cord injury was induced by transabdominal clamping of the aorta distally to the left renal artery and proximally to the aortic bifurcation for 60 minutes. A neurological evaluation of locomotor function was performed using the modified Tarlov score after 48 hours of reperfusion. The spinal cord was harvested for histopathological and immunohistochemical examinations. Results: The spinal cord IR model using direct drug delivery in rats was highly reproducible. The Tarlov score was 4.0 in the sham group, $1.17{\pm}0.75$ in the IR group, $1.33{\pm}1.03$ in the saline group, and $2.67{\pm}0.81$ in the HTK group (p=0.04). The histopathological analysis of the HTK group showed reduced neuronal cell death. Conclusion: Direct infusion of cold HTK solution into the occluded aortic segment may reduce the extent of spinal cord injuries in an IR model in rats.

Digital color doppler ultrasonographic system(DCDUS) has a lot of diagnostic functions. One of these is a detection of low velocity vessels in the organs of abdominal cavity. The purpose of study was to determine the clinical usefulness of DCDUS. Interlobar artery resistive index(RI), pulsatility index(PI) and systolic diastolic ratio(SDr) were measured for diagnosis of obstructed urinary tract. RI, PI and SDr were a measure of intrarenal blood flow impedance. This study was consisted of 2 groups. The normal group was studied in 16 normal adult dogs and the study group was studied 7 dogs with surgically induced, unilateral ureteral obstruction. In the study group, parameters were checked in normal condition and on 1, 2, 3, 5, 7 and 10th day after ligation. The result were summarized as follows. In the normal group, RI, PI and SDr of the left kidney was $0.65{\pm}0.04$, $1.25{\pm}0.12$ and $292.45{\pm}29.40$, respectively. RI, PI and SDr of the right kidney were $0.64{\pm}0.05$, $1.28{\pm}0.20$ and $282.25{\pm}37.26$, respectively. In the study group, RI of the left kidney induced ligation was increased significantly on 1, 2, 3, 5, 7 and 10th day. RI of the left kidney on 1, 2, 3, 5, 7 and 10th day were $0.75{\pm}0.05$, $0.71{\pm}0.03$, $0.74{\pm}0.04$, $0.74{\pm}0.02$, $0.73{\pm}0.02$ and $0.73{\pm}0.04$, respectively. PI of the left kidney was increased significantly on 1, 3, 5 and 7th day. PI of the left kidney on 1, 3, 5 and 7th day were $1.57{\pm}0.21$, $1.54{\pm}0.24$, $1.60{\pm}0.15$ and $1.60{\pm}0.26$, respectively. SDr of the left kidney increased significantly on 1, 2, 3, 5 and 7th day. SDr of the left kidney on 1, 2, 3, 5 and 7th day were $412.18{\pm}86.69$, $352.14{\pm}47.05$, $399.77{\pm}65.54$, $369.43{\pm}48.34$ and $365.57{\pm}22.46$, respectively(p<0.05). In the study group, RI of the left kidney was more increased than that of the right kidney on 1, 2, 3, 5, 7 and 10th day. PI of the left kidney was more increased than that of the right kidney on 1, 3, 5, and 7th day. SDr of the left kidney was more increased than that of the right kidney on 1, 2, 3, 5 and 7th day(p<0.05). RI was effective in the diagnosis of an acute unilateral ureteral obstruction. PI and SDr were insufficient in the diagnosis of an acute unilateral ureteral obstruction.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the trend of nursing research related to family support and to provide an effective direction for future research by conducting a review of the Korean nursing literature from 1980 to 2000. A total of 73 studies were analyzed with the following results. 1) The number of studies related to family support has been rapidly increasing since 1984, and 77% of those were conducted in the 1990s. 48 studies, 65% of those analyzed. were degree-based research including 4 doctoral theses (4%) and 45 master's theses (62%). 2) Based on the objective frame of study types developed by Lee et al. (991), the types of studies were analyzed: 56 studies, 76.6% of those reviewed, belonged to factor-relating: 9 studies (12.4%) belonged to factor-isolating: 7 studies (9.6%) belonged to situation-producing: and only 1 study (1.4%) belonged to situation-relating research, respectively. 3) In terms of research design, most studies of analyzed (90.4%) were conducted by non-experimental design, and 7 studies (9.6%) were conducted by experimental design. But, qualitative research related to family support was not found. 4) In terms of research subjects, target populations of experimental studies were patients with arthritis, mental disorder, tuberculosis, coronary artery disease and hypertension. In correlational studies, 51 studies, 69.9% of those analyzed, were conducted to patients with renal failure, cancer and hemiplegia, and 5 studies (6.8%) were conducted to aged people and adolescents. 5) Study concepts used in correlational studies were quality of life, anxiety and depression, self-esteem, hope, role behavior, compliance and self-care activities. The quality of life was most often used among studies with 12.5% of those analyzed. 6) Nursing interventions, including diet therapy, family involving education and supportive care, used in experimental studies mostly showed positive effects on client involvement and home health improvement. However, the nursing interventions of mental health rehabilitation and resistance exercise showed neutral and negative results. The findings of this study provide evidence that more empirical research including experimental or qualitative studies should be conducted actively to improve nursing practice related to family support. Also, to promote more diverse nursing interventions, a family assessment tool especially for Korean families needs to be developed.

Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of metoprolol, a selective beta-l blocker, were examined for 360 minutes after intravenous bolus administration of metoprolol to 6 dogs. Plasma concentration and excreted amount in the urine metoprolol were measured by liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection. PR interval and heart rate were measured by ECG monitoring. Blood pressure was monitored through intraarterial catheter in femoral artery and cardiac output by thermodilution method using Swan-Ganz catheter. To analyze the effect site concentration-response relationship, plasma concentration and pharmacological effects were simultaneously fitted to a two pharmacokinetic compartment linked to pharmacodynamic model with NONLIN program. Results are as follows. 1) The plasma concentration of metoprolol after intrvenous injection decreased biexponentially. The terminal half-life estimated was $1.33{\pm}0.40$ hours and the volume of distribution at steady state (Vdss) and the total body clearance were $1.04{\pm}0.4\;L/kg,\;6.55{\pm}2.21\;L/hr$, respectively. The central compartment volume of distribution and peripheral compartment volume of distribution were $0.35{\pm}0.14L/kg\;and\;0.69{\pm}0.34L/kg$. The renal clearance and intercompartment clearance were $0.53{\pm}0.25\;L/min\;and\;0.35{\pm}0.19\;L/min$. 2) Simulated biophase concentration-response curve shows hyperbolic relationship and the estimated concentration-effect relationship was best explained by Emax model when the prolongation of PR interval and the reduction of the heart rate were used as pharmacodynamic parameters. Emax and EC50 were estimated to be $26.3{\pm}4.7\;msec\;and\;88.8{\pm}82.3\;g/ml$ for PR interval, and $48.7{\pm}18.8\;beats/min\;and\;113.5{\pm}78.7\;ng/ml$ for heart rate, respectively. 3) The changes of cardiac output-effect site concentration relationship was best fitted by a linear model and the slope of the relationship was $0.005{\pm}0.003$. Diastolic blood pressure-effect site concentration relationship was also explained by the linear model and the slope of the relationship was $0.038{\pm}0.034$.

Background and Purpose: Feeling the pulse is based on the pulse condition and alteration to observe the condition of the human body's health and by using a healthy person's pulse as a standard we are able to analyze the patient's pulse to find the attacked channel and collateral, viscera and bowels and understand the pathology such as diseases caused by exogenous evil, disorder of internal organs, and seven modes of emotions. Observing the color and shade of the patient's face, listening carefully to the sound of the patient, and feeling the pulse are methods in accordance with Su Wen 'Plain Questions', 'The Classic on Difficulty' (5th century B.C. Bianque), 'The Classic of Sphymology' (280 A.D. Wang Xi), 'Pulse Formulas' (1189 A.D. Cui Jiayan), and is systematically edited for those who have started studying to easily reach the profound state. Therefore, 'The Elementary Course for Medicine' has been used from ancient times as the textbook for diagnostics. Methods: In this Study, we will inspect commonly used pulse feeling methods, the inch, bar, cubit thesis, the viscera and bowels thesis from The Elementary Course for Medicine and inquire the difference of the text from 'Plain Questions of Huangdi's Internal Classic', 'Treatise on Febrile Diseases', 'Classic on Difficulty'. Results and Conclusion: 1. In 'The Elementary Course for Medicine' the site of the wrist along the pulsation of the radial artery is divided into inch, bar, cubit and has defined the inch, bar, cubit crossways. 2. In 'The Elementary Course of Medicine' the inch, bar, cubit for the left hand and right hand is subjected to each viscera and bowel. By assigning the left hand's inch, bar, cubit to the cardial orb, the hepatic orb, the renal orb, and the right hand's inch, bar, cubit to the pulmonic orb, the splenic orb, the vital gate it has been able to feel the pulse for each viscera and bowel by using the interpromoting and interacting relation of the five evolutive phases.
