Changes of Hemodynamic Parameters, Pulmonary Gas Exchange, and Extravascular Lung Water During Esophageal Cancer Surgery
1988
Esophagectomy is often connected to postoperative pulmonary complications with a high mortality rate [1, 3,4]. From 1980 to 1985 we treated 19 patients after esophagectomy in our intensive care unit. Nine patients (47%) died of pulmonary complications. From the literature [3] and from our own observations we came to the conclusion that the first pulmonary changes start during the operative procedure.
A prospective randomized clinical trial compared the effect of various types of local anesthetics cartridges on hypertensive patients during dental e…

Objectives: To evaluate hemodynamic changes of blood pressure and heart rate on hypertensive patients undergoing tooth extraction using various types of local anesthesia (LA). Study Design: A prospective randomized clinical trial was conducted on 45 hypertensive patients who were divided equally into 3 parallel groups according to LA received. Group 1: Lidociane 2% with epinephrine 1: 80,000. Group 2: Prilocaine 3% with Felypressin 0.03 IU/ml. Group 3: Mepivacaine 3% plain. Inclusion criteria: hypertensive patients, under medical management with blood pressure ≤ 159/99. Exclusion criteria: Blood pressure ≥160 /100 and patients receiving β blockers. Negative aspiration was mandatory before t…
Chronische thromboembolische pulmonale Hypertonie: Hämodynamische Auswirkungen der selektiven Pulmonalis-DSA mit nicht-ionischem Kontrastmittel
1998
PURPOSE This study evaluates the effects of pulmonary bolus injection of nonionic contrast medium on pulmonary artery pressure and resistance in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension. METHODS In 39 patients (age 52 +/- 15) haemodynamic measurements were performed during bolus injection of nonionic contrast medium in a control group (I), in moderately severe (II) and severe pulmonary hypertension (III). RESULTS Initial inspiratory arrest caused significant pressure increase in all groups prior to bolus injection (delta PAsyst: 7.1 +/- 6.7 [I], 6.8 +/- 3.9 [II] und 7.2 +/- 7.9 mmHg p < 0.05). However, contrast bolus injection (25.1 +/- 2.3 ml iopamidol, 13.0 ml/s) caused…
Therapie thrombembolischer Verschlüsse der Unterschenkelarterien: Klinische Erfahrungen mit dem Angiojet®-Thrombektomiekatheter
1999
UNLABELLED To investigate the clinical impact of a new hydrodynamic thrombectomy catheter in thromboembolic occlusion of tibial arteries. METHOD 10 patients with thromboembolic occlusion of all tibial arteries were treated with the Angiojet thrombectomy device in order to reestablish blood flow. Depending on angiographic and clinical results of thrombectomy, additional thrombolysis, PTA, recanalization, or surgical bypass grafting was performed. RESULTS Antegrade blood flow in at least one tibial artery was reestablished in 6 cases with the thrombectomy device. However, additional treatment modalities were used in order to improve the outcome and to resolve adherent thrombi or to treat vess…
Hemodynamic Changes in Patients with Essential Hypertension after Therapy with Muzolimine
1987
Muzolimine is a new nonsulfonamide diuretic belonging to the pyrazolinone group (1).It is a potent high-ceiling diuretic agent like furosemide and bumetanide with long duration of action like thiazides (1, 2).
Einfluss von Typ-II-Endoleaks auf die Größenänderung und Hämodynamik experimenteller Aortenaneurysmen nach endovaskulärer Therapie
2003
PURPOSE To evaluate the aneurysm volume and the intra-aneurysmatic pressure and maximal pressure pulse (dp/dtmax) in completely excluded aneurysms and cases with endoleaks. MATERIALS AND METHODS In 36 mongrel dogs, experimental autologous aneurysms were treated with stent-grafts. All aortic side branches were ligated in 18 cases (group I) but were preserved in group II (n = 18). Aneurysm volumes were calculated from CT scans before and after intervention, and from follow-up CT scans at 1 week, 6 weeks and 6 months. Finally, for hemodynamic measurements, manometer-tipped catheters were introduced into the excluded aneurysm sac (group I and II), selectively in endoleaks (group II), and intral…
Clinical Syndromes, Pathogenesis, and Differential Diagnosis
1991
The temporal sequence of signs and symptoms in patients with cerebral ischemia provides important information for the analysis of underlying pathophysiologic mechanisms and in the search for a major hemodynamic or embolic cause. The signs reported and symptoms assessed are useful for localization of the ischemic region of the brain and identification of the affected vascular territories. Even in the case of a typical clinical picture the clinical findings alone are often insufficient for unequivocal anatomic and pathologic identification, however important they may be in the choice of diagnostic and therapeutic measures. In the first few hours after cerebral ischemia, determining the progno…
ESRA19-0275 The efficacy and safety of ultrasound-guided superficial cervical plexus block (SCPB) in patient undergoing thyroid surgery: a case report
2019
Background and aims The SCPB provides effective anesthesia and analgesia for the head and neck region. CPBs can be performed more safely and accurately under ultrasound guidance, which is used to easily identify various important landmarks. This case report was carried out to assess the efficacy of SCPB in reducing the intra and postoperative use of opioids/analgesics to control pain due to thyroidectomy. Methods Case report: 45-year-old woman, ASA II, underwent left hemithyroidectomy under general anesthesia (sevoflorane 2% and remifentanil TCI 0.7–1 ng/ml). Ultrasound-guided left superficial cervical plexus block (SCPB) was performed using levobupivacaine 10 ml 0.25%. Pain score was measu…
Resting myocardial blood flow quantification using contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging in the presence of stenosis: A computational fluid dy…
2015
Purpose: The extent to which atherosclerotic plaques affect contrast agent (CA) transport in the coronary arteries and, hence, quantification of myocardial blood flow (MBF) using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is unclear. The purpose of this work was to evaluate the influence of plaque induced stenosis both on CA transport and on the accuracy of MBF quantification. Methods: Computational fluid dynamics simulations in a high-detailed realistic vascular model were employed to investigate CA bolus transport in the coronary arteries. The impact of atherosclerosis was analyzed by inserting various medium- to high-grade stenoses in the vascular model. The influence of stenosis morphology was ex…
Transkranielle Dopplersonographie bei Kopf-Hals-Tumoren*
1991
Transcranial Doppler ultrasound (TCD) recording is a non-invasive diagnostic procedure for the evaluation of the cerebral collateral flow in patients, in whom therapeutic ligation or resection of the common and/or internal carotid artery is planned. Patients are first examined under resting conditions, and then under manual compression of the ipsilateral carotid artery. Since January 1989, 31 ENT and neurosurgical patients have been examined. In all patients an immediate decrease in flow velocity in the middle cerebral artery (mca) of about 25% to 90% was recorded. In 42.8% of the patients the mca flow velocity reached 90% or more of its value under normal conditions within a short period. …
