11. Remote Ischemic Preconditioning and its Effects on the Respiratory System
Sammanfattning : Mechanical ventilation in itself can lead to pulmonary damage, and one-lung ventilation (OLV), necessary for thoracic surgery, accentuates this injury. Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIP) is a potential tool to reduce lung injury after mechanical ventilation, including OLV. However, current data on pulmonary RIP-effects are contradictory. LÄS MER

13. Acupuncture in Obstetrics and Anaesthesia
Sammanfattning : The aims of the present thesis (I-V) were to evaluate the analgesic and adverse effects of manual acupuncture for low-back and pelvic pain during pregnancy (I) and for labour pain (II-III), and also to study the effects of low-frequency electro acupuncture (EA) on clinical physiological responses to skin incision in anaesthetized patients (IV-V). Acupuncture in obstetric patients (I-III) Manual acupuncture in obstetric patients was found to relieve pain in one prospective randomised (I) and two retrospective (II-III) studies. LÄS MER
14. The influence of quartz and surfactant on immune responses
Sammanfattning : Pulmonary surfactant is a mixture of lipids and proteins that embeds the alveolar cells, has surface tension reducing properties but also influences the immune response. To further investigate this, quartz was used to initiate an inflammatory response in two different models. LÄS MER
15. Nitric oxide in experimental pulmonary embolism
Sammanfattning : Nitric oxide (NO) is an important modulator of the pulmonary circulation both at basal state and in pulmonary hypertension. Low levels of NO are detectable in exhaled gas which is believed to mirror pulmonary NO formation and elimination. LÄS MER
