Use of lithium dilution and pulse contour analysis cardiac output determination in anaesthetized horses: a clinical evaluation     

Hallowell GD  Corley KT 《Veterinary anaesthesia and analgesia》2005,32(4):201-211

OBJECTIVE: To assess the suitability of a human algorithm for calculation of continuous cardiac output from the arterial pulse waveform, in anaesthetized horses. STUDY DESIGN: Prospective clinical study. ANIMALS: Twenty-four clinical cases undergoing anaesthesia for various conditions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Cardiac output (Qt), measured by lithium dilution (QtLiDCO), was compared with a preceding, calibrated Qt measured from the pulse waveform (QtPulse). These comparisons were repeated every 20-30 minutes. Positive inotropes or vasopressors were administered when clinically indicated. Cardiac indices from 30.7 to 114.9 mL kg(-1) minute(-1) were recorded. Unusually shaped QtLiDCO curves were rejected and the measurement was repeated immediately. RESULTS: Eighty-nine comparisons were made between QtLiDCO and QtPulse. The bias between the mean (+/-SD) of the two methods (QtLiDCO - QtPulse) was -0.07 L minute(-1)(+/-3.08) (0.24 +/- 6.48 mL kg(-1) minute(-1)). The limits of agreement were -12.72 and 13.2 mL kg(-1) minute(-1) (Bland & Altman 1986; Mantha et al. 2000). Linear regression analysis demonstrated a correlation coefficient (r2) of 0.89. Cardiac output in individual patients varied from 49.1 to 183% of the initial measurement at the time of calibration. Linear regression of log-transformed Qt variation for each method found a mean difference of 9% with limits of agreement of -4.1 to 22.1%. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: This method of pulse contour analysis is a relatively noninvasive and reliable way of monitoring continuous Qt in the horse under anaesthesia. The ability to easily monitor Qt might decrease morbidity and mortality in the anaesthetized horse.  相似文献   

Comparison of lithium dilution and thermodilution cardiac output measurements in anaesthetised neonatal foals     

Corley KT  Donaldson LL  Furr MO 《Equine veterinary journal》2002,34(6):598-601

Knowledge of cardiac output is expected to help guide the treatment of hypotension associated with critical illness and/or anaesthesia in neonatal foals. However, a practical and safe method of measuring cardiac output has not been described for the foal. Lithum dilution, a new method of cardiac output determination not requiring cardiac catheterisation, has recently been reported in mature horses. We compared this method to thermodilution in isoflurane-anaesthetised foals age 30-42 h and found good agreement between the 2 methods in a range of cardiac outputs 5.4-20.4 l/min. The lithium dilution technique is a practical and reliable method of measuring cardiac output in anaesthetised neonatal foals, and warrants investigation in critically ill conscious foals.  相似文献   

The physiological basis for genetic improvement of oil palm in Malaysia     

R. H. V. Corley  C. H. Lee 《Euphytica》1992,60(3):179-184

Summary Yield of Deli dura oil palms after four generations of selection was 60% greater than that of the unselected base population. Total above-ground dry matter production was increased by selection, apparently through better utilisation of solar radiation. The dry matter requirement for vegetative growth was unchanged, so a greater surplus remained for fruit production in the selected palms. Crossing the dura and pisifera to give the thin-shelled tenera fruit type improved partitioning of dry matter within the fruit, giving a 30% increase in oil yield at the expense of shell, without changing total dry matter production.  相似文献   

Boron: possible role in plant metabolism     

Rajaratnam JA  Lowry JB  Avadhani PN  Corley RH 《Science (New York, N.Y.)》1971,172(3988):1142-1143

Leaves of boron-deficient oil palm showed a total absence of the leucoanthocyanins usually present, well before onset of pathological symptoms. The association of boron with flavonoid synthesis is consistent with the otherwise anomalous situation that this element is essential for higher plants but not for animals or lower plants.  相似文献

IMPACT OF VIDEO IMAGES ON O.F.A. EVALUATION OF HIP STATUS     

G.G. Keller  E.A. Corley 《Veterinary radiology & ultrasound》1994,35(1):19-21

The Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA), in an attempt to reduce reporting time and storage space, installed several remote video stations. However, these improvements would be of questionable benefit if the OFA consensus were to be effected. Therefore, the video image and corresponding radiographic image of OFA submissions were used to evaluate consistency in evaluations of the radiologists using the remote video stations. There was no apparent difference between the two methods.  相似文献   

Detection of infectious bursal disease vaccine viruses in lymphoid tissues after in ovo vaccination of specific-pathogen-free embryos.     

M M Corley  J J Giambrone  T V Dormitorio 《Avian diseases》2001,45(4):897-905

Control of infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) by vaccination is important for poultry production worldwide. Two vaccines, an IBDV immune complex (ICX) vaccine and an IBDV-2512 vaccine, were administered at 100 mean embryo infectious dose to specific-pathogen-free 18-day-old broiler embryos in ovo. At 3, 6, 9, 15, and 21 days post in ovo vaccination (PIOV), bursa, spleen, and thymus tissues were collected and analyzed for virus protein by antigen capture chemiluminescent enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Chicks were bled and antibody titers were determined by the antibody ELISA. At 21 days PIOV, chickens were challenged with a 1:500 dilution of an antigenic standard IBDV strain. At 28 days PIOV, birds were euthanatized and bursa weight:body weight ratios were determined. Embryos vaccinated with either vaccine exhibited 92% hatchability; however, within 1 wk of hatch, birds vaccinated with IBDV-2512 showed 56% mortality, whereas those given IBDV-ICX had only 3.2% mortality. Both IBDV-ICX and IBDV-2512 vaccines were detected in bursa, spleen, and thymus at day 3 PIOV. A 5-day delay in virus replication was observed with IBDV-ICX vaccine. By day 15 PIOV, the IBDV-ICX was no longer detectable in the bursa and spleen but persisted in the thymus. The IBDV-2512 vaccine persisted in the spleen and thymus on day 15 PIOV. By day 21 PIOV, neither vaccine virus was detected in any lymphoid organ. This assay can be useful in the early detection of vaccine virus in the tissues of chickens vaccinated via the in ovo route. Both vaccines caused bursal atrophy at all times PIOV. The IBDV-2512 caused splenomegaly at day 6 PIOV, whereas splenomegaly was not seen in IBDV-ICX-vaccinated birds until day 9 PIOV. Thymus atrophy was observed in IBDV-2512-vaccinated chicks from day 3 PIOV, whereas this occurred on day 15 PIOV in IBDV-ICX-vaccinated birds. Bursa weight: body weight ratios in IBDV-ICX-vaccinated unchallenged and vaccinated challenged birds were not different (P < 0.05).  相似文献   

Effects of norepinephrine and combined norepinephrine and fenoldopam infusion on systemic hemodynamics and indices of renal function in normotensive neonatal foals     

Hollis AR  Ousey JC  Palmer L  Stephen JO  Stoneham SJ  Boston RC  Corley KT 《Journal of veterinary internal medicine / American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine》2008,22(5):1210-1215

Background: Norepinephrine increases arterial blood pressure but may have adverse effects on renal blood flow. Fenoldopam, a dopamine-1 receptor agonist, increases urine output in normotensive foals. The combination of norepinephrine and fenoldopam may lead to improved renal perfusion compared with an infusion of norepinephrine alone. The combined effects of these drugs have not been reported in the horse.
Hypothesis: Norepinephrine will alter the hemodynamic profile of foals without affecting renal function. Addition of fenoldopam will change the renal profile during the infusions without changing the hemodynamic profile.
Animals: Five conscious pony foals.
Methods: Each foal received norepinephrine (0.3 μg/kg/min), combined norepinephrine (0.3 μg/kg/min) and fenoldopam (0.04 μg/kg/min), and a control dose of saline in a masked, placebo-controlled study. Heart rate (HR), arterial blood pressure (direct), and cardiac output (lithium dilution) were measured, and systemic vascular resistance (SVR), stroke volume, cardiac index (CI), and stroke volume index were calculated. Urine output, creatinine clearance, and fractional excretion of electrolytes were measured.
Results: Norepinephrine and a combined norepinephrine and fenoldopam infusion increased arterial blood pressure, SVR, urine output, and creatinine clearance and decreased HR and CI compared with saline. The combination resulted in higher HR and lower arterial blood pressure than norepinephrine alone.
Conclusions and Clinical Importance: Norepinephrine might be useful for hypotensive foals, because in normal foals, this infusion rate increases SVR without negatively affecting renal function (creatinine clearance increased). Fenoldopam does not provide additional benefit to renal function. These findings warrant further investigation.  相似文献
