1. Patient-controlled analgesic therapy : the pharmacokinetics of three opiate analgesics in surgical patients and the relation between postoperative demand for analgesics and individual levels of endorphins and substance P in cerebrospinal fluid
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
2. Goal-directed fluid therapy during major abdominal surgery
Sammanfattning : Background: Both hypo- and hypervolemia increase the risk for postoperative complications after major abdominal surgery. Fluid needs vary amongst patients depending on differences in preoperative dehydration, intraoperative physiology and surgical characteristics. LÄS MER
3. Mathematical modelling of clinical applications in fluid therapy
Sammanfattning : Background: This thesis presents a new application of fluid kinetic analysis using mathematical tools to evaluate fluid therapy problems. Several models were developed to mathematically handle fluid distribution concerning bleeding and anaesthesia, arterio-venous differences in plasma dilution, peripheral fluid accumulation and differences in fluid distribution among young and elderly patients.

4. Malaria and relapsing fever Borrelia : interactions and potential therapy
Sammanfattning : Infectious diseases such as malaria and relapsing fever borreliosis (RF), cause severe human mortality and morbidity in developing countries. Malaria, caused by Plasmodium spp. parasites, is estimated by the World Health Organization to cause 1.5-2. LÄS MER
5. Aspects of fluid therapy in the critically ill. Experimental and clinical studies on fluid therapy in the inflammatory conditions
Sammanfattning : Patients suffering from inflammatory conditions often present with severe hypovolemia due to vasodilatation and increased vascular permeability. Early administration of fluids is, therefore, a cornerstone and lifesaving therapy.However, a vigorous and aggressive fluid therapy increases tissue edema, worsen tissue perfusion and organ function.
