The neuromuacular blocking effects of the repeated bolus injection and continuous injection of vecuronium have been compared in 20 patients by means of evoked twitch tension. Group I received a loading dose (0.08 mg/kg) of vecuronium and followed by maintenance doae (0.02 mg/kg) when twitch tension had recovered to 25% of control. Group II received a loading doses (0. 08mg/kg) of vecuronium plus a continuous infusion delivering 0.06 mg/kg/hr. Anesthesia was maintained with nitrous oxide, oxygen and 1.5% enflurane. The neuromuscular blocking effect were reversed by the neostigmine 1.0 mg and robinul 0.2 mg when twitch tension had recovered 25% control in both groups near the end of operation. With repeated injection of vecuronium (group I), the duration of blockade of 25% recovery was 21.6+/-4.2 minutes and the recovery times from 25% to 75% was 6.8+/-1.9 minutes The continuous infusion of vecuronium (group II) produced consistent neuromuscular blockade at the average level of 90% twitch depression. The times from the end of infusion to 25% and fr,om 25% to 75% are averaged 16.0+/-2.5 and 4.2+/-0.7 minutes respectively. The reeovery index was more rapid in infusion group than maintenance group (P<0.05).

BACKGROUND: An Epidemiological study was undertaken to evaluate the prevalence of E. vermicularis infestation among children in kindergartens. METHODS: A total of 247 cellotape anal swab specimens from kindergarten children in Inchon were examined for E. vermicularis eggs. Each specimen was collected in the morning. RESULTS: Out of 247 specimens from two kindergartens in Inchon, E. vermicularis eggs were detected in 168 specimens, the egg detection rate being 68.0%. The egg detection rates in boys and girls were 63.9% out of 133 children and 72.8% out of 114 children, respectively. The egg detection rate in girls was higher than that of boys. The egg detection rates by age group was 65.5%(age 3), S7.4%(age 4), 72.0%(age 5) and 75.4%(age 6), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Enterobiasis is a cosmopolitan infection. Surveys for children of kindergartens indicate that E.vermicularis is probably the most widely distributed human helminth, its incidence varing from 59.2% to 73.8% in groups studied since pinworm infection is frequently a familial problem that infestation of the household frequently results in reinfection. Careful washing of hands and cleansing of fingernails before meals and after use of the toilet are the most practical measures, all member of family should be treated simultaneously when practicable.

The cystoscopic manipulation was done in 52 cases of ureteral stones who visited the Department of Urology, Soon-Chun-Hyang College Hospital during the period of 18 months from May. 1979 to August. 1980 using Dormia stone disloger and the following results were obtained. 1. With the Dormia stone dislodger, 27 cases of ureteral stone were removed successfully. 2. The ureteral stone passed in 8 cases within 72 hours after manipulation. 3. Of the 27 cases, 2 cases were middle ureteral stone and 25 cases were lower ureteral stone. 4. The largest stone measured 6.5 x 13 mm. 5. There were no major complication but minor complication occurred such as fever, pain and gross hematuria.
