Treatment of Parkinson's disease.

Levodopa is widely regarded as the treatment of choice in Parkinson's disease although complications gradually emerge during long-term therapy. The addition of adjuvants may be worthwhile, but it must be recognized that drug therapy offers incomplete and diminished symptom relief.

The performance of circumaural hearing protectors by dosimetry.

The performance of earmuffs in the actual working environment was studied with two modified dosimeters. It was found that personal hearing protection, at least with earmuffs, is a potentially adequate method of protection against noise-induced hearing loss in most industrial working situations. Most of the problems involving the use of hearing protectors in a hearing conservation program can be overcome by education and proper fitting.

Compartmental pressure measurements: an experimental investigation using the slit catheter.

A new catheter employing a different technique to monitor compartmental pressure has been developed. The accuracy of the catheter was compared to a wick catheter and to the needle manometer technique for monitoring compartmental pressure. The slit catheter is the most accurate of the three techniques for continuous pressure monitoring for periods of up to 24 hours in the experimental canine model. The slit catheter is as accurate as the wick catheter for pressure measurements from 0 through 10 mm Hg. The needle technique has proven to be the least accurate of the three.
