This is for a classic 1959 James Commodore 250cc 2 stroke motorbike. This will be a vary brave restoration should someone want to take it on. I had planned on making a classic scrambler out of it. I bought this blind with only the one photo to go on. I was told the engine turned over.
The good points,
The alloy engine case is very nice and there are no cracked fins. The fuel tank looks OK. The Amal carb may well be savable. The gauges in the headlight look quite nice. The gearbox seems OK. The James badges on the fuel tank are OK. The steering turns. The front mudguard should be OK. The center stand works well. And it has a nice reg number if you can get it back from the DVLA.
It did have a tax with it. This has faded where it was written on but is correct one for this bike. I would recommend slight touch up to the hand writing on it and then taking it to a local DVLA office before the all close later this year. You can then get them to do a photo copy and put a validation stamp on the copy. Then send your copy keeping the original disc to the James club or one of the other authorised motorbike clubs along with the appropriate post office form to get a V5C with the original motorbike number reinstated. It is quite easy as have just done this on two other old bikes and had them back on the road with correct number and paperwork within a few weeks. I would go over the faded writing as its easyer than trying to explane why it almost invisable, I cant make out how many months it was taxed for but it looks like the tax fee was something ending in a 3? The tax disc was issued in Berkshire and dates from 1965 and I think that is probably the last time it was used. The bikes reg is 750 HBH so it has a nice plate and this may be worth something on its own to a 750cc bike owner.
The bad bits. Everything else on the bike :)
I told you that the person I got it from said it turned over. Well strange that as when I had bike delivered I found it to be missing the piston :-( also the crank is in two parts :( still should be quite easy to source bits for this engine. Try Villiers motors. There may be the other bit or some bolts missing from the engine as was only losely put together when I got it. The wheels are shot, the centers are probably savable. The exhaust is missing and whats there is shot. All the tin work not listed in the good bits is very poor with lots of rust. The electrics all look shot. The chrome on handlebars is very poor and the leavers are stuck. The headlight shell has rusted on bottom and has no light. The seat is most probably not from this bike, but you can have it anyway to make it look a bit better when sneaking it past the wife into the garage. There are probably other bits I have missed but hopefully you get an idea of this bike from what I have said. Any more questions please ask. Cash on collection only and please do this within a week of end of auction. If you are sending a carrier to collect please let me know so we can arrange a collection day.

a terrible blight on our fine country
2nd year
Record for 2nd year coaches against Sparty
Fielding Yost: 11-0 overall, 119-0 W against MSU
Tad Wieman: 3-4-1 overall, 3-0 W against MSU
Harry Kipke: 8-0-1 overall, 0-0 Tie against MSU
Herbert Crisler: 6-2 overall, 26-13 W against MSU
Bennie Oosterbaan: 6-2-1 overall, 7-3 W against MSU

Bo Schembechler: 9-1 overall, 34-20 W against MSU
Gary Moeller: 10-2 overall, 45-28 W against MSU
Lloyd Carr: 8-4 overall, 45-29 W against MSU
So after looking at the overall records then what happened against Sparty, for the most part we had good overall records and beat them, which like, duh, we are the winningest program ever. So like i said, 7-1-1 in Michigan coaches 2nd season. Obviously since this is a rivalry and not 1910, this is not going to make a difference, but just another thing to brag about to your State friends.

Publisher's Description
Unlike other young ladies, Charlotte Pringle would rather run her bookshop than pursue eligible gentlemen. But when her parents pressure her to agree to an advantageous match, she fears she'll be trapped in a loveless marriage. Richard Baxton feels pressure at every turn now that he's responsible for the family business and his niece Grace, who is unable to walk. When Grace's love for books leads him to Charlotte's bookshop, Richard is drawn to Charlotte's sweet spirit. But with endless problems on the horizon, will God's grace enable them to accept the hardship with dignity and strength?

ABSTRACT: Current guidelines suggest a fasting time of 2 h for clear fluids, which is often exceeded in clinical practice, leading to discomfort, dehydration and stressful anaesthesia induction to patients, especially in the paediatric population. Shorter fluid fasting might be a strategy to improve patient comfort but has not been investigated yet. This prospective clinical trial compares gastric pH and residual volume after 1 vs 2 h of preoperative clear fluid fasting. Children (1-16 yr, ASA I or II) undergoing elective procedures in general anaesthesia requiring tracheal intubation were randomized into group A with 60 min or B with 120 min preoperative clear fluid fasting. To determine gastric pH and residual volume, the gastric content was sampled in supine, left and right lateral patient position using an oro-gastric tube after intubation. Data are median (interquartile range) for group A or B (P<0.05). In total, 131 children aged 1.01-16.23 yr were included; gastric pH was determined in 120 cases. Patient characteristic data were similar between the two groups, except for gender (46/33 males in group A/B; P=0.02). Despite significantly shorter fasting times for clear fluids in group A compared with group B (76/136 min; P<0.001), no significant difference was observed regarding gastric pH [1.43 (1.30-1.56)/1.44 (1.29-1.68), P=0.66] or residual volume [0.43 (0.21-0.84)/0.46 (0.19-0.78) ml kg(-1), P=0.47]. One hour clear fluid fasting does not alter gastric pH or residual volume significantly compared with 2 h fasting. The study was approved by the local ethics committee (KEK-ZH-Nr. 2011-0034) and registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT01516775). © The Author 2014.

Article: [Negative behavioral changes in children and adolescents after anesthesia : Development of a German language version of the Post Hospitalization Behavior Questionnaire.][Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Negative behavioral changes after anesthesia in children are common. The Post Hospitalization Behavior Questionnaire (PHBQ) was particularly developed and has been widely used in English-speaking countries to investigate such behavioral changes. The PHBQ consists of 27 questions related to behavioral features observed by parents after anesthesia or hospitalization, each involving comparison with their baseline status. A comparable diagnostic tool in German should be established. The PHBQ was translated into German using a well defined back-translation method. A 3-point Likert scale was used to categorize behavioral features as less than, equal to or more than baseline. Overall 600 questionnaires were given out at children's hospital discharge, following surgical or medical procedures or examinations with or without concurrent anesthesia or deep sedation. After questionnaires were returned, factor and item analysis was conducted. Cronbach's alpha was calculated to determine internal consistency as a measure of reliability. In total, 155 returned and completed questionnaires were assessed, with patients' age ranging from 1.1 to 15.9 (median 5.7) years and length of hospitalization between 1 to 15 (median 2.5) days. The German translation of the PHBQ has a factorial structure that is similar to the English version, and its psychometric properties are also similar. After analysis of the main components and consideration of the Scree plot, either 6 or 7 factors were indicated. Analogously to the original version, we chose 6 factors, which explain 58% of variance. Items were not identically assigned to factors as with the original version, and terms used to describe the factors were slightly adapted. Reliability was adequate, with Cronbach's alpha for the 6 factors being between 0.6 and 0.82 (for total scale: Cronbach's alpha = 0.89, compared to 0.82 for the original version). Children younger than 5 years showed more negative behavioral changes than older children. There were no gender differences. With the German translation of the PHBQ presented here an instrument is available to detect negative behavioral changes after anesthesia in children among German speaking populations. The translation is comparable to the English version with minor differences concerning its factorial structure, which may be due to the predominant role of anxiety in all items. Like the original, this questionnaire does not per se discriminate between anesthesia and hospitalization induced behavioral changes. However, the German translation of the PHBQ is a questionnaire that is feasible for clinical routine and scientific settings and can be easily and quickly completed by caregivers.Der Anaesthesist 12/2014; · 0.76 Impact Factor

Article: Hunger and thirst numeric rating scales are not valid estimates for gastric content volumes: a prospective investigation in healthy children[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A rating scale for thirst and hunger was evaluated as a noninvasive, simple and commonly available tool to estimate preanesthetic gastric volume, a surrogate parameter for the risk of perioperative pulmonary aspiration, in healthy volunteer school age children. Numeric scales with scores from 0 to 10 combined with smileys to rate thirst and hunger were analyzed and compared with residual gastric volumes as measured by magnetic resonance imaging and fasting times in three settings: before and for 2 h after drinking clear fluid (group A, 7 ml/kg), before and for 4 vs 6 h after a light breakfast followed by clear fluid (7 ml/kg) after 2 vs 4 h (crossover, group B), and before and for 1 h after drinking clear fluid (crossover, group C, 7 vs 3 ml/kg). In 30 children aged 6.4-12.8 (median 9.8) years, participating on 1-5 (median two) study days, 496 sets of scores and gastric volumes were determined. Large inter- and intra-individual variations were seen at baseline and in response to fluid and food intake. Significant correlations were found between hunger and thirst ratings in all groups, with children generally being more hungry than thirsty. Correlations between scores and duration of fasting or gastric residual volumes were poor to moderate. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis revealed that thirst and hunger rating scales cannot predict gastric content. Hunger and thirst scores vary considerably inter- and intra-individually and cannot predict gastric volume, nor do they correlate with fasting times in school age children.Pediatric Anesthesia 03/2014; 24(3):309-15.

Article: Cerebral lesions on magnetic resonance imaging correlate with preoperative neurological status in neonates undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass surgery[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To determine the prevalence, spectrum and course of cerebral lesions in neonates with congenital heart disease (CHD) undergoing full flow cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) surgery using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and to examine the correlation between cerebral lesions and clinical neurological abnormalities. Prospective cohort study of neonates with d-transposition of the great arteries (n = 22), univentricular heart malformation with hypoplastic aortic arch (n = 6) and aortic arch obstructions (n = 2) undergoing CPB. Neonates underwent cerebral MRI and blinded standardized neurological examination before (median day 6) and after surgery (day 13). The MRI findings were compared with those of 20 healthy controls. Preoperative cerebral lesions were present in 7 of 30 patients (23%) with isolated mild or moderate white matter injury (WMI) (n = 4), isolated small cerebral stroke (n = 1) and combined WMI and stroke (n = 2). None of the healthy controls had cerebral lesions on MRI. CHD neonates with preoperative cerebral lesions had more neurological abnormalities (P = 0.01) than neonates without cerebral lesions. Low arterial oxygen saturation (P = 0.03) was a risk factor for preoperative cerebral lesions, while balloon atrioseptostomy (P = 0.19) was not. After surgery, preoperative cerebral lesions persisted in 5 of 7 neonates, and 2 neonates (7%) showed signs of additional WMI in their postoperative MRI. In neonates with severe CHD, WMI was the predominant preoperative finding, while cerebral strokes were less frequent. New postoperative lesions were rare. Preoperative neurological abnormalities correlated with the presence of cerebral lesions on MRI.European journal of cardio-thoracic surgery: official journal of the European Association for Cardio-thoracic Surgery 09/2013; 45(4).

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Classic rapid sequence induction puts pediatric patients at risk of cardiorespiratory deterioration and traumatic intubation due to their reduced apnea tolerance and related shortened intubation time. A 'controlled' rapid sequence induction and intubation technique (cRSII) with gentle facemask ventilation prior to intubation may be a safer and more appropriate approach in pediatric patients. The aim of this study was to analyze the benefits and complications of cRSII in a large cohort. METHODS: Retrospective cohort analysis of all patients undergoing cRSII according to a standardized institutional protocol between 2007 and 2011 in a tertiary pediatric hospital. By means of an electronic patient data management system, vital sign data were reviewed for cardiorespiratory parameters, intubation conditions, general adverse respiratory events, and general anesthesia parameters. RESULTS: A total of 1001 patients with cRSII were analyzed. Moderate hypoxemia (SpO2 80-89%) during cRSII occurred in 0.5% (n = 5) and severe hypoxemia (SpO2 <80%) in 0.3% of patients (n = 3). None of these patients developed bradycardia or hypotension. Overall, one single gastric regurgitation was observed (0.1%), but no pulmonary aspiration could be detected. Intubation was documented as 'difficult' in two patients with expected (0.2%) and in three patients with unexpected difficult intubation (0.3%). The further course of anesthesia as well as respiratory conditions after extubation did not reveal evidence of 'silent aspiration' during cRSII. CONCLUSION: Controlled RSII with gentle facemask ventilation prior to intubation supports stable cardiorespiratory conditions for securing the airway in children with an expected or suspected full stomach. Pulmonary aspiration does not seem to be significantly increased.Pediatric Anesthesia 06/2013; 23(8). DOI:10.1111/pan.12213 · 1.85 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: Cross-sectional gastric antral area (GAA) measurements by ultrasonography (US) have been proposed for preoperative assessment of gastric volume in adults but not been validated in children. This study investigates whether in children gastric volumes can be predicted by US performed in different patient positions. Gastric fluid and air volumes were examined by magnetic resonance imaging before or up to 120 min after ingestion of 7 ml·kg(-1) diluted raspberry syrup in healthy volunteers who had fasted overnight. GAA was measured with US three times each in supine (SUP), elevated 45° degree supine (E45) and right decubital (RDC) position using imaging planes defined by vascular landmarks. Correlation coefficients (Pearson) between GAA and gastric volumes were calculated and Bland-Altman analysis performed. Sixteen children aged from 6.4 to 12.8 (9.2) years were included in 23 examinations: 6 after overnight fasting, 3 directly after, and 14 with a delay of 74 ± 35 min after fluid intake. GAA was 221 ± 116, 218 ± 112, and 347 ± 188 mm(2) for SUP, E45, and RDC position, respectively. The best correlation between body weight corrected total gastric/gastric fluid volume (TGV(w)/GFV(w)) with GAA was found for RDC position (R = 0.79; P < 0.01/R = 0.78; P < 0.01). Bias and precision of calculated and measured GFV(w) was 0 ± 2.8 ml·kg(-1). Correlations between GAA and TGV(w) or GFV(w) in children are best in the RDC position, but not sufficient to predict GFV(w) with a given GAA. Interpretation of isolated GAA values may be misleading.Pediatric Anesthesia 02/2012; 22(2):144-9. DOI:10.1111/j.1460-9592.2011.03718.x · 1.85 Impact Factor
Article: Effect of different quantities of a sugared clear fluid on gastric emptying and residual volume in children: a crossover study using magnetic resonance imaging[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Gastric emptying in the first 2 h after 7 ml kg(-1) of sugared clear fluid has recently been investigated in healthy children using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This study aims to compare gastric volume and emptying half-life during 1 h after 3 or 7 ml kg(-1) sugared clear fluid intake. Fourteen healthy volunteer children aged 11.1 (8.2-12.5) yr were investigated prospectively after administration of 3 and 7 ml kg(-1) diluted raspberry syrup in a randomized order, after overnight fasting (baseline). Gastric content volume (GCV(w)) was assessed with a 1.5 Tesla MRI scanner in a blinded fashion. Data are presented as median (range) and compared using the Wilcoxon test. Baseline GCV(w) was 0.39 (0.04-1.00) and 0.34 (0.07-0.75) before intake of 3 and 7 ml kg(-1) syrup, respectively (P=0.93). GCV(w) was 0.45 (0.04-1.55)/1.33 (0.30-2.60) ml kg(-1) 60 min after ingestion of 3/7 ml kg(-1) syrup (P=0.002). Thus GCV(w) had declined to baseline after 3 ml kg(-1) (P=0.39) but not after 7 ml kg(-1) (P=0.001) within 60 min. T(1/2) was 20 (10-62)/27 (13-43) min (P=0.73) after 3/7 ml kg(-1). In healthy volunteer children, residual GCV(w) 1 h after intake of 3 ml kg(-1) syrup is significantly smaller than that after 7 ml kg(-1) and within the range of baseline.BJA British Journal of Anaesthesia 01/2012; 108(4):644-7.

Article: [Low-dose droperidol in children: rescue therapy for persistent postoperative nausea and vomiting].[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Droperidol had been used as an effective antiemetic since the 1970s but was withdrawn from the market in 2001 because of a black box warning about QT prolongation and possible cardiac arrhythmia after high doses. In the meantime the black box warning has seriously been questioned and parenteral droperidol has again been licensed in 2008. Because droperidol acts on dopaminergic receptors different to 5-HT(3) antagonists and dexamethasone, it could possibly serve as a rescue drug after failed postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) prophylaxis. Persistent PONV after the recommended prophylaxis is a significant problem in pediatric anesthesia but a satisfactory strategy has not yet been defined. Therefore a retrospective audit was performed in order to evaluate whether low-dose droperidol (10 µg/kgBW) would be an effective rescue drug for failed antiemetic prophylaxis. The electronic anesthesia patient data base of the University Children's Hospital Zurich was searched from 2004-2009 for patients who received low-dose droperidol in the postanesthesia care unit as rescue therapy for persistent PONV after antiemetic prophylaxis. Based on the recorded electronic data the effectiveness of low-dose droperidol as PONV rescue therapy and possible side effects were analyzed. A total of 338 patients who received droperidol were found from a total of 34,032 patients and the charts were analyzed. Of these patients 134 were excluded because they had received droperidol for indications other than PONV, 43 patients were excluded because they had not received antiemetic prophylaxis before droperidol and in 17 patients the data were incomplete, leaving 144 patients with an average age of 12.3 years (interquartile range IQR 9.5-15.2 years) for analysis. The upper range of ages resulted from patients with chronic diseases who were still being treated in the Children's Hospital. Low-dose droperidol was given because of persistent nausea to 59 patients (41%) and to 85 patients (59%) for persistent vomiting. Initial antiemetic prophylaxis and/or therapy had consisted of dexamethasone plus tropisetrone in 80 patients and tropisetrone or dexamethasone alone in 64 patients. In 128 patients (89%) rescue therapy with a median dose of 10.9 µg/kgBW droperidol was effective but vomiting persisted in 16 patients (11%). Sedation was the only side effect recorded and this was observed in 39 patients (27%). Low-dose droperidol (10 µg/kgBW) was found to be effective as rescue medication in pediatric patients experiencing PONV despite various prophylactic antiemetic regimens. No neurological or cardiopulmonary side effects were recorded after this low dosage.Der Anaesthesist 01/2012; 61(1):30-4. · 0.76 Impact Factor

Article: Residual gastric contents volume does not differ following 4 or 6 h fasting after a light breakfast - a magnetic resonance imaging investigation in healthy non-anaesthetised school-age children[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: While American Society of Anesthesiologists and European Society of Anaesthesiology guidelines recommend 6 h pre-anaesthetic fasting for food and non-clear fluids in children, some institutions allow shorter fasting times of 4 h. Aim of this pilot study was to compare weight-indexed residual gastric contents volumes (GCV(w)) after 4 vs. 6 h after a light breakfast, using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in healthy volunteer children not scheduled for anaesthesia. Four vs. 6 h (F(4) /F(6)) of food fasting were simulated in a crossover study. After overnight fasting (baseline), each child ingested a light breakfast (cereal flakes, milk products) on two separate days. Additional clear fluid (7 ml/kg raspberry syrup) was given either after 2 (F(4) ) or 4 h (F(6) ), followed by half-hourly MRI acquisition for 2 h. MRI was obtained on a 1.5 Tesla scanner as 5 mm axial images (FIESTA) and volumes were traced manually by one blinded observer. Data are given as median (range) or mean ± standard deviation. Eighteen healthy volunteers aged 9.0 (6.8-12.2) years participated. GCV(w) for F(4) and F(6) at baseline was 0.50 ± 0.27 and 0.76 ± 0.48 ml/kg (P = 0.07), respectively, GCV(w) after 4 and 6 h was 0.72 ± 0.85 and 0.47 ± 0.25 ml/kg (P = 0.88). T(1/2) after syrup intake was 30.8 ± 12.2 and 28.3 ± 5.7 min (P = 0.47) for F(4) and F(6) , respectively. Residual gastric contents volumes at a hypothetical anaesthesia start were similar for 4 and 6 h food fasting in healthy volunteer school-age children.Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica 12/2011; 56(5):589-94.

Article: Gastric emptying after overnight fasting and clear fluid intake: A prospective investigation using serial magnetic resonance imaging in healthy children[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Current guidelines recommend preoperative fasting of 2 h for clear fluids, which is often exceeded in routine clinical practice. Existing data on residual gastric volumes in children do not consider fluid intake within <2 h and rely on the aspiration of gastric contents via a gastric tube. This study evaluated the emptying of clear fluids from the stomach using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Healthy volunteers aged 6-14 years were asked to fast overnight. MRI scans to assess gastric volumes were obtained before and immediately after drinking 7 ml kg(-1) of diluted raspberry syrup and then every 30 min up to 120 min. Volumes were determined by a blinded investigator and indexed gastric fluid/air volumes (GFV(w)/GAV(w)) and half-life (t(1/2)) of GFV(w) course after clear fluid intake were calculated. Sixteen children, median age 9.2 (range 6.4-12.8) years, were investigated. Median (range) GFV(w) was 0.62 (0.15-0.97) ml kg(-1) before and 6.68 (4.77-7.78) ml kg(-1) immediately after fluid intake, and 2.92 (0.43-5.04), 1.27 (0.28-3.62), 0.42 (0.07-2.49), and 0.32 (0.04-1.13) ml kg(-1) 30, 60, 90, and 120 min thereafter. Median GFV(w) declined exponentially (t(1/2)=26.1 min). Median individual t(1/2) was 23.6 (range 17.9-47.8) min. GAV(w) showed considerable intra- and inter-individual variation. In healthy school children, gastric emptying after ingestion of clear fluid occurs with a median half-life time of <30 min but with considerable inter-individual variation.BJA British Journal of Anaesthesia 06/2011; 107(3):425-9.

ABSTRACT: This study assessed the duration of pre-operative fasting in children and its impact on the subjective feeling of hunger and thirst prior to elective outpatient anesthesia. Pediatric fasting guidelines are designed to reduce the risk of pulmonary aspiration of gastric contents during general anesthesia, and a fasting regimen of 6-8 h for solids, 4 h for breast milk, and 2 h for clear fluids is commonly used. Anecdotal evidence suggests that fasting times are often excessive. A total of 1350 consecutive healthy children aged <16 (median 7.7, range 2-16) presenting for elective dental treatment under general anesthesia were enrolled in this prospective study. On hospital arrival, all children were asked when they last ate or drank and to rate their degree of hunger and thirst. The median (range) fasting times were 12:05 (00:45-21:50) hours and 07:57 (00:05-20:50) hours for solids and fluids, respectively. The majority of children were very hungry or starving (756/1350=56%), but less than a third of all children were very thirsty (361/1350=27%). Duration of solid food fast and severity of hunger correlated for patients fasted from before midnight (r=0.92) but not for food after midnight. No correlation was found for fluid intake and perception of thirst. This study shows that children presenting for elective outpatient surgery are suffering from a considerable amount of pre-operative discomfort because of excessive fasting. Strategies to guarantee minimal fasting at hospital admission are urgently needed.Pediatric Anesthesia 04/2011; 21(9):964-8. DOI:10.1111/j.1460-9592.2011.03573.x · 1.85 Impact Factor
Article: Fasting times and gastric contents volume in children undergoing deep propofol sedation - An assessment using magnetic resonance imaging[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To investigate the effect of fasting times for clear fluids and solids/non-clear fluids on gastric content volume using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Pediatric patients undergoing diagnostic MRI under deep propofol sedation, with the stomach located within the area of diagnostic study, were included in this clinical observational study. According to standard institutional guidelines, children were allowed to eat/drink until 4 h and to drink clear fluids until 2 h before scheduled induction time of anesthesia. Gastric content volume per kg body weight (GCV(w)) was determined using MRI and compared with actual fasting times prior to induction. Overall 68 patients aged from 0.3 to 19.6 (2.8) years were investigated. Fasting time for clear fluids ranged from 1.1 to 15.5 (5.5) h, for non-clear fluids/solids from 4.0 to 20.2 (6.7) h. GCV(w) ranged from 0.2 to 6.3 (0.75) ml·kg(-1) and showed no significant negative correlation to fasting times for clear fluids (r = -0.07, P = 0.60) and non-clear fluids/solids (r = -0.08, P = 0.51). Based on this preliminary data, GCV(w) showed considerable variation but did not correlate with fasting times in children and adolescent patients. Recommended fasting times were often exceeded.Pediatric Anesthesia 03/2011; 21(6):685-90. DOI:10.1111/j.1460-9592.2011.03563.x · 1.85 Impact Factor
Article: The PediaSat continuous central SvO(2) monitoring system does not reliably indicate state or course of central venous oxygenation[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The present study compares the accuracy of a new continuous venous oxygenation monitoring system (PediaSat Oximetry Catheter) with laboratory blood oximetry in paediatric surgical patients. Children and adolescents undergoing cardiac, orthopaedic or craniofacial surgery with major blood loss were included. A 4.5 Fr two-lumen or 5.5 Fr three-lumen central venous oximetry catheter (SPediaSatcvO2) was inserted preoperatively into the superior vena cava. After in-vivo calibration of the PediaSat system, repeated blood samples were obtained from the distal port of the venous catheter and oximetrically analysed for haemoglobin and central venous oxygen saturation (SCO-OXcvO2). Central venous oxygen saturation values measured by the PediaSat (SPediaSatcvO2) were compared with co-oximetry (SCO-OXcvO2) values from the simultaneously taken blood samples by Bland-Altman and simple regression analyses. Overall, 142 data pairs from 27 patients, aged from 0.6 to 19.0 years (median 5.3 years) were analysed. SPediaSatcvO2 and SCO-OXcvO2 values ranged from 57 to 98% and from 57.1 to 95.8%, respectively. Correlation between SPediaSatcvO2 and SCO-OXcvO2 was poor with r equal to 0.28 (P < 0.0001). SPediaSatcvO2 overestimated SCO-OXcvO2 (mean bias +2.6%), but limits of agreement (+/-2 SD of bias) were unacceptably high (-14.4/+19.6%). Sensitivity and specificity of SPediaSatcvO2 to indicate a fall or rise of SCO-OXcvO2 between two subsequent measurements were only 0.42 and 0.24, respectively. In paediatric and adolescent patients undergoing major surgery, the PediaSat system did not reliably reflect SCO-OXcvO2 values and cannot replace repeated invasive ScvO2 assessments in the clinically relevant range of ScvO2.European Journal of Anaesthesiology 08/2010; 27(8):720-5.

Article: Cuffed endotracheal tubes in children reduce sevoflurane and medical gas consumption and related costs: Cost effectiveness of cuffed paediatric tubes[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: This study aims to evaluate sevoflurane and anaesthetic gas consumption using uncuffed vs. cuffed endotracheal tubes (ETT) in paediatric surgical patients. Uncuffed or cuffed ETT were used in paediatric patients (newborn to 5 years) undergoing elective surgery in a randomized order. Duration of assessment, lowest possible fresh gas flow (minimal allowed FGF: 0.5 l/min) and sevoflurane concentrations used were recorded. Consumption and costs for sevoflurane and medical gases were calculated. Seventy children (35 uncuffed ETT/35 cuffed ETT), aged 1.73 (0.01-4.80) years, were enrolled. No significant differences in patient characteristics, study period and sevoflurane concentrations used were found between the two groups. Lowest possible FGF was significantly lower in the cuffed ETT group [1.0 (0.5-1.0) l/min] than in the uncuffed ETT group [2.0 (0.5-4.3) l/min], P<0.001. Sevoflurane consumption per patient was 16.1 (6.4-82.8) ml in the uncuffed ETT group and 6.2 (1.1-14.9) ml in the cuffed ETT group, P=0.003. Medical gas consumption was 129 (53-552) l in the uncuffed ETT group vs. 46 (9-149) l in the cuffed ETT group, P<0.001. The total costs for sevoflurane and medical gases were 13.4 (6.0-67.3)euro/patient in the uncuffed ETT group and 5.2 (1.0-12.5)euro/patient in the cuffed ETT group, P<0.001. The use of cuffed ETT in children significantly reduced the costs of sevoflurane and medical gas consumption during anaesthesia. Increased costs for cuffed compared with uncuffed ETT were completely compensated by a reduction in sevoflurane and medical gas consumption.Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica 08/2010; 54(7):855-858.

Palaeontologists have come up with a finding that could answer the age-old question of how ancient fish first gained a foothold on land before flourishing and evolving.
Researchers have shown that small holes on the top of the head of one bony fish species are primitive nostrils and were essential for its ancestor to emerge from the water 380 million years ago.
They say the discovery could also explain how humans developed such an acute sense of hearing.

Name: Setsuko Shiba
Age: 364
Gender: Male
General Appearance: Setsuko is a tall young man appearing in his early twenties. He has pale, fair skin, long lashes and high cheek bones. He has large ice blue eyes with a dark outline around his eyes making them stand out more than usual. Setsuko has a rather unkept appearance with messy hair and chin stubble. His hair is chin length and often in a messy ragged fashion, his hair is often someone spiked out in the back and sides. His bangs fall into his face often pushed out of his eyes with some between his eyes. Setsuko has a thin scar along his right eye often times keeping it closed. He also has a long scar slicing across his chest as well as one up along his neck and along his face across his nose. Due to the extent of his reshi he is often seen with pieces of frost stuck to him and his breath able to be seen as he has a hard time from keeping it from seeping out.
He wears a variation of the soul reaper uniform, the sleeves of the kimono reach to his elbows before they're ripped and frayed, before replaced with tight sleeves and fingerless gloves. He wears his captain's haori more like a cloak than anything, it's sleeveless, those it is ripped and torn reaching down to just below his knees, though its unique in the aspect of it having a hood on it. He wears a light blue and white stash around his waist to hold it closed.
Strengths: Setsuko is good at turning his surroundings into obstacles and pieces for him to use when fighting. He's also proficient at both close and short range when fighting switching between the two at any given moment.
Weaknesses: Setsuko has a rare illness that often causes him to suffer from dizzy spells, lightheadedness, shakiness, and coughing fits which often result in him coughing up blood, this sometimes occurs during combat. He is able to take medicine to reduce this, however doing so reduces his power and as such he doesn't often take them unless told to.
He's unable to control his reshi fully and as such it is often spilling out of him, due to it he doesn't often have control of himself from freezing things.
Personality: He is quite brave and willing to act without hesitation, put herself in harm's way to protect someone else; this seems to happen no matter who they are, be it a complete stranger or not. Setsuko often times even without a weapon will still try to protect someone or fight her foes, even if he knows it's a losing battle. He is always willing to, or rather will always say what's on his mind, or voice his beliefs regardless of how the other party may react.
Some would consider him quite rude, and insulting, referring to people mostly by only their given names, without adding an honorific or title, calling superiors, or people of great importance by their first name.
Setsuko is very duty bound, brash at times, because of this, and various other aspects in his personality; it often causes her to get in fights with other people when they question him, and how he acts. Because of this, people label him as violent and aggressive which isn't entirely untrue.
Setsuko has a childish side of him and often likes to joke around or play pranks on people, though he acts even more like a child when someone tries to get him to take his medicine. Despite his happy seeming personality and how she seems to care for the people around him, he seems to be able to change personalities at the drop of a hat, changing to a person who's willing to kill anyone even if they've been close to them for years.
Historical Outline: He lived in District 79 of the Rukongai, Kusajishi. Setsuko was found and raised by his foster mother and father being raised by them along with his brother and sister. At the age of eight, his parents were executed for teason, by starting a small rebellion within the lower parts of the Rukongai that spread chaos by attack the soul reapers. The reason for this was because at this time the poorer districts were being treated wrongly and they sought to fight back.
Setsuko joined the Shin'ō Academy at a young age after his reiatsu began to develop and grow often leaving him freezing things or creating small snow storms at first when he was unable to control it. He rose to the top of his class in many of his classes while in the academy.
After becoming a soul reaper Setsuko participated in the battle of the soul society exhibiting great skill inside and out side of combat, being able to take control of a situation whether it be through orders or himself fighting. While at a young age for his efforts in the battle he was made Captain commander of the new guard.

Uber sound from the Uberkab.
This 4x12" Bogner Uberkab straight cabinet features a black front speaker grill and a combination of Celestion V30 and G12T75 speakers wired at 16 ohms. This combination unleashes the brutality of the Uberschall amp, it helps to maximize the low end and give great cutting power to the mids/highs. A standard Bogner 4x12" guitar speaker cabinet with V30's sounds great for the Uberschall as well, but Bogner wanted to offer a cabinet that was fine-tuned for the flame-throwing Uberschall and Twin Jet heads.
Bogner's 210W Uberkab speaker and other 4x12 cabinets offer premiere 4x12 character: chunky bass response, with rich, fat, and woody tones. These speaker cabinets have been developed to respond to your nuances as a player. Bogner makes guitar speaker cabinets that are alive with resonance, 3D note projection and that dance with every note played.

text: SDN Members don't see this ad. (About Ads) I'd like to start a more recent post for this question.... What's the consensus on needing or not needing a Step 2 score to match in Ortho specifically? Anyone with first-hand or second-hand experience on this? I did really well on Step 1 and there's a good chance my Step 2 score would only bring me down.. Thanks guys
