Öğe The effect of environmental tobacco smoke on the dose requirements of rocuronium in children(BLACKWELL PUBLISHING LTD, 2004) Reisli, R; Apilliogullari, S; Reisli, I; Tuncer, S; Erol, A; Okesli, SBackground: Smoking affects the pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic behaviour of several drugs. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of environmental tobacco smoke on onset and recovery time after single dose rocuronium in children. Methods: Forty children between 4 and 10 years were enrolled into the study. Children who have no familial smoking history were included in the first group whereas passive smokers included in the second group. Sevoflurane in 50% O-2 and 50% N2O was used for induction of anaesthesia. Evoked adductor pollicis electromyography was used to monitor neuromuscular block. The T-95 and T-25 values were recorded. Results: The T-95 values (+/-SD) for rocuronium were 110.1 +/- 39.3 s and 79.3 +/- 35.6 s for group 1 and group 2, respectively (P < 0.05). The T-25 value of group 2 was 40.1 +/- 10.6 min and compared with group 1 values (30.85 +/- 7.02 min) it was significantly longer (P < 0.01). Conclusion: This study shows that passive smoking children consume less rocuronium than nonsmokers during similar anaesthesia. We think that a history of passive smoking must also be taken into consideration during preoperative evaluation of paediatric patients.Öğe The mechanisms of the direct vascular effects of fentanyl on isolated human saphenous veins in vitro(W B SAUNDERS CO-ELSEVIER INC, 2005) Sahin, AE; Duman, A; Atalik, EK; Ogun, CO; Sahin, TK; Erol, A; Ozergin, UObjective: The purpose of this study was to determine the mechanism of the direct effects of fentanyl on human veins in vitro. Design: In vitro, prospective with repeated measures. Setting: University research laboratory. Interventions: Dose-response curves were obtained for cumulative doses of fentanyl (10(-9)-10(-5) mol/L) on saphenous vein strips precontracted with (10(-6) mol/L) 5-hydroxytryptamine incubated with either naloxone (10(-4) mol/L), N omega-nitroL-arginine-methyl ester (L-NAME) (10(-4) mol/L), indomethacin (10(-5) mol/L), glibenclamide (10-4 mol/L), tetraethylammonium (10(-4) mol/L), or ouabain (10(-5) mol/L). Vein strips were also exposed to a Ca++-free solution and 0.1 mmol/L of ethylene glycol-bis-(b-aminoethylether) N,N '-tetraacetic acid; 5-hydroxytryptamine (10(-6) mol/L) was added to the bath before cumulative Ca++ (10(-4)-10(-2) mol/L). The same procedure was repeated in the presence of fentanyl (10-6, 3 x 10-6, or 10-5 mol/L) (p < 0.05 = significant). Measurements and Main Results: Preincubation of vein strips with naloxone, L-NAME, or indomethacin did not influence the relaxant responses to fentanyl (p > 0.05). Tetraethylammonium, glibenclamide, and ouabain reduced the relaxation response to fentanyl (p < 0.05). A stepwise increase in tension was recorded with cumulative doses of Ca++ (p < 0.05). Conclusions: The present results show that fentanyl causes vasodilatation via both endothelium- and opioid receptor-independent mechanisms in the human saphenous vein. The relaxant effects of fentanyl are probably via activation of K+ channel and Na+K+-adenosine trisphosphatase and inhibition of Ca++ channel. (c) 2005 Elsevier Inc.

Initial results of animal testing(WILEY, 2005) Kalkan, E; Arican, M; Kalkan, SS; Erayman, I; Erol, A; Tulgar, AO; Tulgar, MA new neuroimplant system, namely the Tulgar implant, developed to solve the practical problems encountered with the presently available implants, was tested as a spinal cord stimulator in ten sheep. The response of living tissue and technical performance of the new system were evaluated. Electrodes implanted in the low thoracic (T9-10) vertebral levels by means of hemilaminectomy were subcutaneously connected to the passive coil receiver element located in the anterior-inferior chest wall for 28 days. Laboratory parameters including hematology, biochemistry, and microbiology were investigated over the study, and histopathologic examinations were done by the end of study. Animal tests showed that the new system could reliably be implantable in the living tissue. Intra-operative radicular stimulation of the right dorsal root in T13-L1 levels, by means of burst mode of signals, resulted in observable contractions of hip muscles in the right upper leg.Öğe Remifentanil has different effects on thoracic aorta strips in different species, in vitro(BLACKWELL MUNKSGAARD, 2004) Duman, A; Ogun, CO; Sahin, AS; Atalik, KE; Erol, A; Okesli, S[Abstract not Available]
