Cell-penetrating pepducins targeting the neurotensin receptor type 1 relieve pain [PDF]
Pepducins are cell-penetrating, membrane-tethered lipopeptides designed to target the intracellular region of a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) in order to allosterically modulate the receptor's signaling output. In this proof-of-concept study, we explored the pain-relief potential of a pepducin series derived from the first intracellular loop of ...

A prospective, multicentre, observational cohort study of analgesia and outcome after pneumonectomy [PDF]
Background Meta-analysis and systematic reviews of epidural compared with paravertebral blockade analgesia techniques for thoracotomy conclude that although the analgesia is comparable, paravertebral blockade has a better short-term side-effect profile ...

The analgesia of methoxyflurane [PDF]
A preliminary study was made of analgesia produced by methoxyflurane in oxygen in eleven patients undergoing surgery. Methoxyflurane was found to be safe and excellent as an analgesic agent. An associated drowsiness was also noticed, similar to that seen in the postanaesthetic period of conventional methoxyflurane anaesthesia.

Background: Traditionally, postoperative pain has been managed either reactively with drugs given as needed or proactively with continuous infusion of analgesics. Objectives:The present prospective comparative study was carried out to find difference in

The same doses of anesthesia may yield varying depths of anesthesia in different patients. Clinical studies have revealed a possible causal relationship between deep anesthesia and negative short- and long-term patient outcomes. However, a reliable index

Distributed Real-Time Emulation of Formally-Defined Patterns for Safe Medical Device Control [PDF]
Safety of medical devices and of their interoperation is an unresolved issue causing severe and sometimes deadly accidents for patients with shocking frequency. Formal methods, particularly in support of highly reusable and provably safe patterns which can be instantiated to many device instances can help in this regard. However, this still leaves open

Veterinarians in the UK on the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for post-disbudding analgesia of calves [PDF]
The study examined cattle farmers' and veterinarians' opinions of pain-induced distress associated with disbudding and attitudes towards non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).

Background Acute renal injury (AKI) caused by hypotension often occurs in elderly patients after gastrointestinal tumor surgery. Although vasoactive drugs can increase effective filtration pressure, they may increase renal vascular resistance and reduce ...

Using LOR Syringe Probes as a Method to Reduce Errors in Epidural Analgesia -- a Robotic Simulation Study [PDF]
Epidural analgesia involves injection of anesthetics into the epidural space, using a Touhy needle to proceed through the layers in the epidural region and a "loss of resistance" (LOR) syringe to sense the environment stiffness. The anesthesiologist's case experience is one of the leading causes of accidental dural puncture and failed epidural - the ...
