BACKGROUND: The more vital organ blood flow during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), the more successful outcome. The worldwide CPR drug of choice, epinephrine also has some limitations and is often challenged by another catecholamine drug. This study was designed to compare the effects of epinephrine with those of vasopressin and epinephrine mixture on cerebral no-reflow during closed-chest CPR in a rabbit model of ventricular fibrillation. DESIGN: Prospective, randomized, experimental study. SETTING: University research laboratory. SUBJECTS: Domestic rabbits,3 to 6 months of age InteNentions : Four rabbits were randomly allocated to receive only 0.020 mg/kg of epinephrine(group 1) and another four rabbits were received both 0.020 mg/kg of epinephrine and 0.8 U/kg of vasopressin after 5 mins of cardiac arrest(group 2). MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Carotid arterial blood flow and arterial gas analysis were showed no statistical difference between two groups but in the points of cerebral no reflow area and fluorescence exposure time, there were significant differences(group 1,5.15+/-.45%, group 2, 6.38+/-.54%, p=.029/ group 1; 29.65+/- 17.09 seconds, group 2;17.98+/- 18.75 seconds, p=.014). CONCLUSIONS: In cardiac arrest there is some synergistic effect with epinephrine and vasopressin mixture on cerebral no-reflow phenomenon.

81 cases, 79 patients of ankle fracure treated at pusan Maryknoll hospital from May, 1980 to January, 1986 were analized in clinical and radiological aspect. The results obtained from this study were as following. l. Of the 79 patients, male was 61 patients and female was 18 patients. The average age of the patients was 36 years. 2. Main cause of the injury was traffic accident (35 cases, 43.3%) and the other causes were industrial accident, fall down, slip down, and sports accident in orders. 3. By the classification of Lauge-Hansen, the most common type was pronation external rotation(29 cases, 35.8%). 4. Open reduction was performed in 55 cases(67.9%), and closed reduction in 25 cases(30.1%) 5. The average duration of the cast immobilization was 8 weeks in closed reduction and 7 weeks in open reduction. 6. The result of the treatment was better in those cases of the open reduction than that of the closed reduction. 7. The most poor result was noticed in pronation dorsiflexion type. 8. We agree that Lauge-Hansen classification is useful in diagnosis and treatment of the ankle fracture.
