Sixty six Colles' fracture were treated with radial slab or U-cast (sugar tong splint), from January 1982 through May 1984 at the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery of St. Mary Hospital. A prospective study was made and was evaluated under the subjective criteria of Gartland and Werley, and the objective criteria of Scheck. The results of this study were as follows: 1. All of 66 cases was closed fracture and the incidence was high in females who aged over 6thdecades. 2. In 43 cases of stable fracture, 18 (94.7 %) out of 19 cases treated with radial slab and 21 (87.5%) out of 24 cases treated with U-cast showed satisfactory result. 3. In 23 cases of unstable fracture, 6 (54.6%) out of 11 cases treated with radial slab and 9 (75%) out of 12 cases treated with U-cast showed satisfatory result. 4. As a result, we found that the result of the treatment with radial slab was superior to the U-cast for the stable Colles fracture, however, all of two methods were not staisfatory for the unstable Colles fracture although the U-cast group showed better result.

This study deals with the changes in the concentrations of blood glucose and electrolytes during open heart surgery. Blood glucose and electrolytes in connection with age, disease and anesthetic period were measured in 25 patients about to undergo heart surgery which were performed between June 1986 and August 1986 in Yeungnam University Hospital. Because glucose solution is commonly used as priming solution, and the priming solution is hyperglycemic and hyperosmolar, glucose level of priming solution in this study was adjusted to 100-200 mg% level to minimize hyperglycemic and hyperosmolar effect. The following results were obtained. 1. Glucose level of priming solution before extracorporeal circulation was 151.6+31.3 mg%. 2. With body cooing, blood glucose level was elevated. As duration of extracorporeal circulation is prolonged, blood glucose level was elevated more, but no difference between age and diseases were observed. On warning, blood glucose level was progressively lowered. 3. Despite the low serum potassium level during by-pass, the potassium level was progressively elevated following by pass, cut the serum potassium level was low compared to control values. Elevated calcium level was maintained during by pass.
