Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine if laryngoscopy using a Miller blade with a paraglossal approach would yield an improved view of the larynx compared to that obtained with a Macintosh blade using the standard approach. One-hundred and sixty-one patients, scheduled for elective surgery requiring tracheal intubation, voluntarily participated in this study. Patients were randomly assigned to one of the two groups (Miller vs. Macintosh). A standard general anaesthetic was administered. Comparisons were made of the percentage of the vocal cords visible at laryngoscopy. The view of the airway was also graded using the Cormack and Lehane scale. Statistical analysis using Fisher's exact test was performed. A P value of cases, whereas this was achievable in only 53% with the Macintosh blade (P=0.0014). The Miller blade enabled greater than 25% of the vocal cords to be seen in 95% of the cases, whereas this was achievable in only 80% with the Macintosh laryngoscope (P=0.003). A grade 1 Cormack and Lehane view of the larynx was obtained in 96.5% of cases in the Miller group compared with 85% in the Macintosh group (P=0.02). Direct laryngoscopy using the Miller blade and paraglossal approach, afforded a much-improved view of the larynx in the majority of cases. For this reason trainees should learn laryngoscopy using both blades.

Abstract

For a newborn requiring positive-pressure ventilation (PPV), the American Heart Association recommends bag-and-mask ventilation, a challenging procedure for those inexperienced in neonatal resuscitation. The objective of this prospective study was to evaluate the laryngeal mask airway (LMA) as an alternative method of airway management in neonates requiring PPV at birth.With the approval of the institutional ethics committee, consent was obtained from women in labor at a tertiary care-perinatal center. Inclusion criteria consisted of an expected birth weight of at least 2.5 kg, gestational age of at least 35 weeks, and resuscitation requiring PPV. Neonates meeting these criteria were resuscitated with PPV by means of the LMA. The ease of insertion, number of attempts required, time to establish effective ventilation, skin color, heart rate, respiratory effort, and Apgar scores were recorded.Attendance by the investigators at delivery was achieved in 93 cases, with 21 meeting the inclusion criteria. In all cases, the LMA was successfully inserted on the first attempt and provided a clinically patent airway. Twenty neonates were successfully resuscitated with the LMA to provide PPV, with no complications directly attributable to its use. One neonate required LMA removal and tracheal intubation to facilitate administration of epinephrine; data from this case was removed from the study.Providing PPV at birth via a size-1 LMA is effective and easily learned by personnel with expertise in neonatal resuscitation. The LMA should be further assessed as an alternative to bag-and-mask ventilation for this purpose.

Abstract

The purposes of this study were to evaluate the effect of age on the vascular absorption of local anesthetics during epidural anesthesia and to corroborate the clinical observations of other investigators with respect to age. Using the arbitrary definition of significance (P less than 0.05), the maximum serum levels of lidocaine (Csmax) did not differ significantly with age, however, P values were equal to 0.06. Furthermore, the time to Csmax was significantly faster in elderly patients (P less than 0.00001). In conclusion, the mass of local anesthetic solution should be reduced in elderly patients undergoing epidural anesthesia because there is a greater segmental spread, and serum levels of local anesthetics are increased.

Abstract

The safety and efficacy of single intramuscular doses of dezocine (10 or 15 mg) were compared with butorphanol (2 mg) and placebo in 157 patients with moderate to severe postoperative pain. A verbal pain intensity scale, an analog pain intensity scale, and a verbal pain relief scale were used to record the patients' subjective assessments. The results of this study indicate that a single 10 or 15 mg intramuscular injection of dezocine is safe and more effective than placebo for four to six hours, respectively, in the treatment of moderate to severe postoperative pain (P less than .05). During the first hour of treatment the pain relief afforded by 2 mg of butorphanol was significantly greater than that afforded by 10 mg of dezocine (P less than .05), but both doses of dezocine provided long-lasting relief. The scores on all three efficacy scales were highest with the 15 mg dose of dezocine after the first hour, while the 10 mg dose of dezocine and butorphanol were compared during this period. Nausea and vomiting were the most commonly reported side effects; injection site reactions were reported more frequently in the butorphanol group.

Abstract

Etidocaine 0.5% plain, etidocaine 0.5% with epinephrine 1:200,000 and lidocaine 1% with epinephrine 1:200,000 were compared in a series of patients receiving epidural anesthesia for vaginal delivery. Results, based on data from 48 patients, showed a significant increase in the duration of action (P is less than .01%), the degree of sensory analgesia (P is less than .02%) and the degree of motor blockade (P is less than .01%) in the group that received etidocaine with epinephrine compared to the remaining groups. There were no significant differences in the duration of labor or the number of complications. It was concluded that etidocaine and lidocaine in the concentrations used were unsatisfactory for labor and delivery.
