This study was performed to investigate the blood contents of velvet antler and femoral venous blood in farmed elk (Cervus canadensis). Blood samples were collected from 12 young adult elk (3.5-4.5 years old) with a mixture of fentanyl-azaperone-xylazine (Fentazine$^{(R)}$). Values for hematological and clinicochemical components of the clinical healthy elk were determined. The results were grouped for comparison according to velvet antler and femoral venous blood. Lower mean platelet counts and fibrinogen values were found in the velvet antler than femoral venous blood (p<0.01). White blood cell count of velvet antler was significantly higher than that of femoral venous blood 0<0.05). The clinicochemical parameters (total protein, albumin, globulin, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferasei blood urea nitrogens calciums magnesium and phosphonls) obtained in this study far farmed elk are consistent with the values between velvet antler and femoral venous blood.

This study was conducted to determine the effects of deep breathing exercise and ankle exercise on blood flow velocity in the femoral vein. Sixteen healthy male students were recruited from Yonsei University, at Wonju. The blood flow velocities in the femoral vein were measured under three different conditions: resting, deep breathing, and ankle exercise. All subjects were given a 5-minute relaxing time in supine position prior to the study. Using a doppler ultrasound with a 8 MHz probe, the peak blood flow velocities were collected in a twenty-second-period at each condition. The subjects took a rest in between trials for the blood flow to return to its resting levels. The result showed a significant difference in peak blood flow velocities under those three conditions (p<.001). The peak blood flow velocity was highest in ankle exercise condition. The peak blood velocity was significantly higher in deep breathing condition compared with the resting condition. As a result, it is revealed that not only the muscular contractions but also the deep breathing exercises induced facilitating effects of venous return. Either of the exercise methods can be recommended to prevent blood stasis in patients with risk of deep vein thrombosis after cardiac or lower extremity surgery.

Purpose: This study was done to evaluate the mean venous velocity (MVV) response with knee and thigh length compression stockings (CS) versus intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) devices in immobile patients with brain injuries. Methods: We carried out a randomized controlled study. We analyzed both legs of a randomly chosen sample of 43 patients assigned to one of 4 groups (86 legs). The patients were sequentially hospitalized in the intensive care unit (ICU) in "S hospital" from November 2005 to December 2006. The base line and augmented venous velocity was measured at the level of the common femoral vein. We applied leg compression 42 times over 7 days (for 2 hours at a time at 2 hour intervals). Results: There was a statistical difference among the 4 groups. The difference for the "IPC" group was more significant than the "CS" group. Conclusion: These results indicate that the application of IPC can be considered as an effective method to prevent deep vein thrombosis for immobile patients with brain injury.

Arterial adventitial cystic disease is an uncommon type of non-atherosclerotic peripheral vessel disease. Most cases of arterial adventitial cystic disease occur in the popliteal arteries; however, fewer cases have been reported in the femoral arteries. A 59-year-old male patient visited the hospital with a complaint of a swelling on the lower extremity that had begun two months earlier. Suspecting deep vein thrombosis based on a physical examination and ultrasonography from another hospital, tests were performed. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed for exact diagnosis because venous adventitial cystic disease was suspected by computed tomography venography. The MRI indicated venous adventitial cystic disease as well. Thus, a cystic mass excision was performed. In the end, a cystic mass compressing the common femoral vein that originated from the common femoral artery was diagnosed based on the macroscopic findings. This case is reported because blood circulation in the vein was impeded due to arterial adventitial cystic disease, and the symptoms improved after the cystic mass excision and polytetrafluoroethylene roofing angioplasty.

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.

The purpose of this study were to evaluate the effect of epinephrine-containing local anesthetics on pulpal blood flow (PBF) and to compare the change of pulpal blood flow after cavity preparation between in non-anesthetized teeth and in anesthetized ones in cats. Nine cats were initially anesthetized with intra-muscular injection of keramine(75mg/kg) and acepromazine(2.5mg/kg). Periapical radiographs of canine teeth were taken, followed by intra-venous injection of alpha-chloralose(40mg/kg) and urethane (500mg/kg) through the femoral vein for the general anesthesia.(중략)

A comparative study was undertaken to evaluate the contact Neo-dymium : yttrium aluminum garnet(Nd:YAG) laser system for vascular anastomosis of small caliber blood vessels(diameter 0.5-1.2 mm) in the animal model. In this study 40 femoral arteries and 40 femoral veins of Sprague-Dawley rats were anastomosed by contact laser assisted microvascular anastomosis(LAMA) utilizing 3 stay sutures which were placed 120 degrees apart and the intervals welded with contact Nd:YAG laser unit, conventionally sutured anastomosis(CSA) served as controls. The time needed for vascular anastomosis, patency rate(immediate postoperative, postoperative 2nd day, postoperative 1 week, postoperative 4 weeks), gross and microscopic evaluations were compared to conventional microsurgical suture technique. The results are as follows: 1. Postoperative patency rate was 82.5% for femoral artery and 75% for femoral vein by contact LAMA technique compared to 90% and 75% by CSA technique at postoperative 4 weeks. 2. Less time-consumed for arterial anastomosis by 6 minutes 23 seconds and venous anastomosis by 8 minutes 55 seconds with contact LAMA technique compared to CSA technique. 3. Grossly almost complete healing had taken place by postoperative 1 week by contact LAMA technique. 4. Aneurysm formation was 5% for femoral artery and 15% for femoral vein by contact LAMA technique compared to 5% and 10% respectively by CSA technique. 5. Microscopically, re-endothelization was complete by postoperative 7th day by contact LAMA technique. There was less medial hypertrophy and hyperplasia and also less inflammatory response compared to CSA.

Purpose: For reconstruction of craniomaxillofacial defects caused by tumor, trauma, infection etc, free flap transplantation with microvascular surgery is a very useful method. Thrombus formation at the anastomosis site is the major cause of graft failure. 4-Hexylresorcinol (4-HR) is generally known as an antiseptic and antiparasitic agent. This study was conducted in order to evaluate the effect of 4-HR on blood coagulation in vitro. In addition, we investigated thrombus formation and endothelial repair of an injured vessel in an animal model. Methods: In the in vitro experiment, we compared blood coagulation time between the 4-HR treated group and normal blood. Thirty rats were used for in vivo animal experiments. After exposure of the right femoral vein, a micro vessel clamp was placed and the femoral vein was intentionally cut. Microvascular anastomosis was performed on all rats using 10-0 nylon under microscopy. The animals were divided into two groups. In the experimental group (n=15), 4-HR (250 mg/kg) mixed with olive oil (10 mL/kg) was administered per os daily. Animals in the control group (n=15) were given olive oil only. The animals were sacrificed at three days, seven days, and fourteen days after surgery and rat femoral vein samples were taken. Vascular patency and thrombus formation were investigated just before sacrifice. Histologic analysis was performed under a microscope. Results: Results of an in vitro blood coagulation test showed that coagulation time was delayed in the 4-HR treated group. The results obtained from an in vivo 4-HR administered rat model showed that the patency of all experimental groups was better at thirty minutes, seven days, and fourteen days after microvascular anastomosis than that of the control group at seven and fourteen days after anastomosis, and the amount of thrombus in the experimental groups was much less than that of the control group. Endothelial repair was observed in the histologic analysis. Conclusion: Findings of this study demonstrated that blood coagulation was delayed in the vitro 4-HR treated group. In addition, good vascular patency, anti-thrombotic effect, and repair of venous endothelial cells were observed in the vivo 4-HR administered rat group.

기립 및 도립의 체위면화가 두부 및 하지의 혈액순환계에 미치는 영향을 관찰하고, atropine의 정주에 의한 부교감신경의 차단이 체위변화에 대한 심맥관계의 내성을 증가시키는 지를 보기위하여 개를 경사대에 수평위로 고정하여 수동적으로 기립 및 도립위로 체위를 변화시키고, 각 체위에서 10분간 유지시켜 경동맥, 외경정맥, 고동맥 및 고정맥의 분시 혈류량, 분시 심박수 및 분시 호흡수, 그리고 혈액의 pH, $PCO_2$, $PO_2$ 및 Hct를 측정하였다. 다시 수평위에서 atropine 0.5mg을 1회 정주한 후 위의 실험과정을 반복하여 시행하고 atropine투여전과 비교 관찰하였던 바 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 기립시 두부 및 하지 동정맥혈의 분시 혈류량은 감소하였고, 특히 두부로 가는 혈류량의 감소가 더 컸으나, atropine의 투여는 경동맥의 분시 혈류량의 감소를 억제하였다. 도립시 두부 및 하지의 분시 혈류량은 유의한 변화를 보이지 않았고, 개체에 따라 변화양상도 다르게 나타났다. atropine의 투여는 투여전에 비하여 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 분시 심박수는 기립 및 도립시 모두 증가하였다. atropine의 투여는 수평위에서 분시 심박수는 투여전 보다 증가하나, 체위변화에 의한 분시 심박수의 증가를 경감시켰다. 분시 호흡수는 개체에 따라 변화양상에 차이가 있으나, 대체로 기립시는 감소하고 도립시는 증가하였다. atropine의 투여는 기립 및 도립시 다 같이 분시 호흡수의 변화를 억제하였다. 혈액소견은 기립시 정맥철의 pH 및 $PO_2$는 감소하였고, $PCO_2$는 증가하나 동맥혈의 $PCO_2$는 감소하였다. 도립시 동정맥혈의 소견은 수평위에 비해 별 변화가 없었으며 , atropine의 투여후도 기립 및 도립시 모두에서 투여전에 비하러 유의한 변하는 없었다. Hct는 기립 및 도립시 증가하였으며 atropine투여에 의한 변화는 관찰할 수 없었다. 이상에서와 같이 atropine의 투여는 기립시 두부로 가는 혈류량을 증가시키며, 기립 및 도립시 발생할 수 있는 분시 심박수의 과도한 증가를 억제함으로서 체위변화에 대한 심맥관계의 내성을 증가시키는데 어느정도 효과가 있다고 하겠다.
