Effect of anesthesia on susceptibility to acoustic trauma.

In an effort to ascertain whether differences in susceptibility to noise depend on general condition, awake and anesthetized guinea pigs were given a 4 kHz pure tone overstimulation under identical conditions. Cochlear hair cells were histologically examined four weeks after the noise exposure. The damage was localized in the upper part of the first turn and the lower part of the second turn. One fourth as much damage occurred in the anesthetized group. The distribution of damage in the four rows of sensory cells was different in the two experimental groups. In both groups of animals the damage was localized mainly to the outer hair cells, the first row sustaining the major damage.

A review of instrumentation and therapeutic techniques in the diagnosis and management of supraventricular tachycardia.

Paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia can usually be managed without any specific therapy or with an appropriate drug program. Some patients, however, are resistant to conventional therapy. In the past decade, the electrophysiologic pathogenic mechanisms of this rhythm disorder have been elucidated, and this, coupled with progress in intracardiac instrumentation, has enabled the physician to induce specific rhythm disorders and to map them to determine an ideal, specially tailored method of treatment. As a result, the use of radiofrequency pacing and surgery are becoming increasingly important in the treatment of patients with paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia, especially those with arrhythmias related to Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.
