[Problems of postoperative respiratory insufficiency (author's transl)].

Postoperatively patients are particularly endangered by the development of respiratory failure. All parts of the gas-exchange between the atmospharic air and the metabolizing cell are to be considered as a unit. The increase of dead-volume-respiration and intrapulmonary shunting is of great importance for the development of arterial hypoxaemia. Early diagnosis of impaired gas-exchange and an adequate treatment are emphasized. CPAP and intermittent mandatory ventilation are therapeutic methods, well approved in clinical practice.

[Blood gas analysis in surgical geriatric gynecology].

At 36 women ranging in age from 60 to 87 years, who received general anaesthesia for gynaecological operations, pO2 and acid-base-status were controlled before and two hours after operation and on the 1st and 3rd postoperative days. At these geriatric patients the results showed mean values of pO2 in relation to the age and normal parameters of the acid-base status. Comparing the abdominal and vaginal operations no significant differences could be found. The comparison between patients aged 60 to 69 years and these over 70 years showed only small but clinically insignificant differences of base excess. These beneficial results are the consequences of a successful, complications avoiding pre- and postoperative treatment.
