Although the use of acupuncture for pain has increased in recent years, the mechanisms of acupuncture analgesia (AA) remains obscure. The lack of suitable experimental animal models for persistent pain, which show clear AA, has been the major stumbling block in the investigation of the physiological mechanisms of AA. In the present study, we test AA in two knee arthritis model induced by injection of CFA or carrageenan as a chronic pain model. After induction of arthritis, the rat subsequently showed a reduced stepping force of the affected limb for the next several days. Electroacupuncture (EA) was applied to an acupuncture point each on the contralateral forelimb for 30 minutes under enflurane anesthesia. After the termination of EA, behavioral tests measuring stepping force were periodically conducted during the next several hours. EA produced a significant improvement of stepping force of the foot lasting for at least 2 hours when applied to LR2 In CFA model, and applied to ST36 in carrageenan model, but both points did not produce any significant effects in each other model. These data suggest that EA produce analgesic effect in knee arthritic pain and the analgesic effect is specific to the acupuncture point.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects on body temperature, shivering, and perceived thermal comfort of web-based evidence-based practice guideline for patients undergoing gastrectomy. Methods: Eighty patients scheduled for gastrectomy were recruited and assigned to the control or experimental group by sequential order. Before collecting data from the experimental group, a systematic educational program on evidence-based guidelines was provided to the nurses as well anesthesiologists. Data were analyzed using t-test and repeated measured ANOVA. Results: The experimental group showed higher body temperature from the induction of anesthesia until four hours after surgery compared to the control group. In addition, the levels of thermal comfort as well as satisfaction with thermal management were significantly higher in the experiment group. Conclusion: Use of evidence-based guidelines was effective in maintaining body temperature, lowering sensitivity to shivering, and promoting perceived thermal comfort. Therefore, adoption of evidence-based interventions in nursing practice is recommended.

Prophylactic antibiotics in acute nonperforated appendicitis have been used for preventing infection after appendectomy. However, duration of antibiotic administration for surgical prophylaxis in Korea has been noted to be longer than those recommended in other countries. The objective of this study was to identify appropriate duration of prophylactic antibiotics in acute nonperforated appendicitis by comparing two different antibiotic regimens for their wound infection rates. Eighty-four acute nonperforated appendicitis patients were enrolled in this prospective, randomized, open trial and were assigned to one of two antibiotic regimens: cefoxitin 1 g every 8 hours given intravenously for 24hours or cefoxitin 1 g every 8 hours given intravenously plus sisomicin 75 mg every 12 hours given jntramuscularly for 72 hours. First doses were given just prior to the induction of anesthesia. Postoperative wound infections were detected in $4.8\%$ of the 72-hour-treated group (n=42), whereas none occurred in the 24-hour-treated group (n=42). However, the difference in the rates of wound infections between two groups was not statistically significant. The most frequently isolated microorganism from appendiceal tissues was E coli. In conclusion, administration of cefoxitin alone for 24 hours is sufficient as surgical prophylaxis in nonperforated appendicitis.

Fibrolipomas are a rare microscopic variant of lipomas, characterized by mature adipose tissue interspersed with dense fibrous connective tissue. These lesions are rarely observed in the head and neck region and represent <0.6% of all benign tumors of the larynx and hypopharynx. Their clinical presentation depends on the location and size of lesions. Patients present with variable symptoms; however, fibrolipomas of the larynx and hypopharynx are clinically important because these tumors can cause unpredictable airway obstruction, particularly during general anesthesia induction. We present a case of a hypopharyngeal fibrolipoma in a 61-year-old patient with frequent dyspnea, dysphagia, and muffled voice. Laryngoscopy revealed a well-demarcated pedunculated ovoid mass involving the larynx. We performed laryngomicrosurgery using a carbon dioxide laser for surgical excision and subsequent evaluation confirmed the diagnosis of fibrolipoma. We report a case of hypopharyngeal fibrolipoma, together with a literature review.

Endotracheal intubation is often necessary in the course of animal experiments, especially in craniofacial surgery. However, endotracheal intubation can be a major burden in this context. The authors performed simple and cost-saving method using a 200 µL yellow micropipette tip, and the success of this method was demonstrated by X-ray and autopsy. We used a total of 30 rats. After the rats were fixed with a plaster, the trachea and vocal cords were visualized with the tongue pulled back. Under direct visualization of the vocal cords, a curving micropipette tip was advanced into the trachea. This method can be learned quickly and applied successfully by general experimenters. We successfully intubated all 30 rats without any complications. The success rate of micropipette tip intubation was 100%. This procedure was performed by one experimenter within 2 to 3 minutes after induction of anesthesia. We demonstrated its superiority by X-ray and autopsy. Herein, we describe endotracheal intubation of rats using micropipette tips. To the best of our knowledge, this method is novel and represents the simplest and most efficient means of intubation in rats, providing an alternative to conventional endotracheal intubation.

The aim of the present study was to test the efficiency of estrous induction in the premature, metestrous and anestrous bitches. The estrus was induced with prostaglandin $F_{2{\alpha}}$, estradiol-$17{\beta}$, pregnant mare serum gonadotropin (PMSG) and human chorionic gonadotropin(HCG) in the treatment A, and with PMSG and HCG in the treatment B. Day 0 was the first day of estrone injection in the treatment A and the day of PMSG injection in the treatment B. Twenty three of the twenty six bitches were laparotomized under general anesthesia between 11 and 18 days after onset of behavioral estrus, whereas three bitches were not laparotomized and remained until parturition. Ovarian responses were evaluated with the total number of corpora lutea or ovulation sites. The uterine horns were flushed with phosphate-buffered saline added heat treated canine serum(10%), the flushing media was collected into watch glass and the ova were examined under stereomicroscope. The results obtained were as follows: 1. Standing estrus was observed on the day $17.7{\pm}1.5$ after injection of estrone in the treament A, but ovarian responses were not detectable. 2. Standing estrus was observed on the day $12.2{\pm}0.2$ after injection of PMSG in the treament Band 14 of 17 bitches showed ovarian responses. Ova were recovered in 9 of the 14 bitches. 3. Ovarian responses were observed in one of the three premature bitches. two of the three metestrous bitches and all of the 11 anestrous bitches. The average number of the ova collected from 9 bitchs were $12.2{\pm}1.4$. 4. Three bitches in the treament B exhibited behavioural estrus and all of them were mated with fertile male dog, resulting the pregnancy in only one bitch. The pregnant bitch gave the birth of two pups.

일반적인 마취용량에서의 enflurane과 propofol 단독 투여와 두 마취제의 병용 투여가 심혈관계에 미치는 영향을 비교하기 위해 본 실험을 수행하였다. 진정제(acepromazine 0.05 mg/kg) 투여 후 atropine(0.05 mg/kg)으로 전처치한 실험견 18두를 3개군으로 무작위 분류하고 각 군에 propofol infusion 0.5 mg/kg/min(Group I), enflurane 2.5 vol%(Group II), enflurane 1.0 vol%와 propofol infusion 0.25 mg/kg/min(Group III)을 각각 1시간 동안 산소 공급하에서 투여하였다. 대퇴동맥에 설치한 카테터를 통하여 전 실험기간에 걸쳐 Physiograph로 MAP(Mean Arterial Pressure), SAP(Systolic Arterial Pressure), DAP(Diastolic Arterial Pressure)를 기록하고 동맥혈을 채취하여 $Na^+, K^+, Cl^-$ 등 전해질 농도와, PaO$_2$(arterial oxygen tension), Pa$CO_2$(arterial carbon dioxide tension), pHa(arterial pH)를 측정하였다. 마취 전후의 체온, 심박수, 호흡수를 측정하였다. 특히 심혈관계와 관계된 검사(MAP, SAP, DAP, 체온)에서 마취유도 후 20분 동안은 모든 group에서 감소가 뚜렷하였다. Group II와 Group III에서 유의적인 감소(p<0.05, 0.01)를 보였으며 Group III는 Group I보다는 낮았으나 Group II보다는 높은 수치를 기록하였다. 산소공급과 관련하여 PaO$_2$의 증가(p<0.05, 0.01)가 있었으며 전해질 검사에서는 $Na^+와 K^+$의 유의적인 변화(p<0.05, 0.01)가 나타났다. 실험결과 유의성있는 변화가 나타났지만 모든 결과들이 정삼범위내에 있었고 뚜렷한 부작용이 나타나지 않았으므로 enflurane 1.0 vol%와 proofol 0.5 mg/kg/min 병용투여는 개 마취에 있엇 적용가능한 방법이라 생각된다.

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.

Objective: To investigate the effect of intraoperative glucose fluctuation and postoperative interlukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-${\alpha}$ (TNF-${\alpha}$), C-reactive protein (CRP) levels on the short-term prognosis of patients with intracranial supratentorial neoplasms. Materials and Methods: Eighty-six patients undergoing intracranial excision were selected in The Second Hospital of Jilin University. According to the condition of glucose fluctuation, the patients were divided into group A (glucose fluctuation <2.2 mmol/L, n=57) and group B (glucose fluctuation ${\geq}2.2mmol/L$, n=29). Glucose was assessed by drawing 2 mL blood from internal jugular vein in two groups in the following time points, namely fasting blood glucose 1 d before operation ($T_0$), 5 min after anesthesia induction ($T_1$), intraoperative peak glucose ($T_2$), intraoperative lowest glucose ($T_3$), 5 min after closing the skull ($T_4$), immediately after returning to intensive care unit (ICU) ($T_5$) and 2 h after returning to ICU ($T_6$). 1 d before operation and 1, 3 and 6 d after operation, serum IL-6 and TNF-${\alpha}$ levels were detected with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and CRP level with immunoturbidimetry. Additionally, postoperative adverse reactions were monitored. Results: There was no statistical significance between two groups regarding the operation time, anesthesia time, amount of intraoperative bleeding and blood transfusion (P>0.05). The glucose levels in both groups at $T_1{\sim}T_6$ went up conspicuously compared with that at $T_0$ (P<0.01), and those in group B at $T_2$, $T_4$, $T_5$ and $T_6$ were significantly higher than in group A (P<0.01). Serum IL-6, TNF-${\alpha}$ and CRP levels in both groups 1, 3 and 6 d after operation increased markedly compared with 1 d before operation (P<0.01), but the increased range in group A was notably lower than in group B (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Postoperative incidences of hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia and myocardial ischemia in group A were significantly lower than in group B (P<0.05), and respiratory support time obviously shorter than in group B (P<0.01). Conclusions: The glucose fluctuation of patients undergoing intracranial excision is related to postoperative IL-6, TNF-${\alpha}$ and CRP levels and those with small range of glucose fluctuation have better prognosis.
