DYNAMIC OF LEFT VENTRICULAR VOLUME AFTER ACUTE MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION UNDER THERAPY WITH ACE INHIBITORS

Change in left ventricular volumes, particularly end-systolic volume index is a major representative of left ventri cular dilatation, and is a predictor of mortality after acute myocardial infarction of anterior localization. Several large-scale trials have demonstrated beneficial effectiveness of ACE inhibitors on the process of left ventricular remodeling after myo cardial infarction, not only in patients with compromised systolic function. Aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of therapy for ACE inhibitors in the early faze of anterior myocardial infarction, trough dynamics of left ventricular volume in dexes. During six months 30 patients were evaluated with echocardiography in admission, before leaving the hospital, after
three and six months after myocardial infarction. In evaluated group there was increased end-diastolic and end-systolic vo lume index, but without statistically significant value. There were no new cardiac decompensations. We concluded that ACE inhibitors given in the early stage of acute myocardial infarction anterior localization have beneficial effect on the process of left ventricular remodeling and that is recommended to bee given to this patients, after excluded contraindications

SURGICAL TREATMENT OF THE GALL BLADDER DISEASE AND THE BILIARY WAYS

Biliary calculosis is the most frequent disease of the hepathrombial system. Inflammation of the gall bladder appears in the acute and chronicle form. Acute inflammation presents one of the frequent complications of the gall bladder
calculosis. Acute inflammation of the gall bladder can appear in catarrhal, phlegmonous, gangrenous perforative form. Perforation of the inflamed changed gall bladder can lead to the diffuse biliary peritonitis, pericholecystitis and formation of
pericholecystitis infiltrate or abcess. Very often the acute inflammation of the gall bladder appears in combination with Acute inflammation of the pancreas. For the production of the work the biyearly material of the Emergency Surgical Centre
“Simonida” in Gračanica is used. In the ESC Simonida, in the period from January to December of 2004, 375 patients were operated. In the same period of time we operated 52 (13.86%) patients because of the gall bladder disease and biliary ways.
There were 45 female patients and 7 male ones. Gall bladder disease is 6.5 times more frequent at females in our material. Hard security situation and limited freedom of movement are one of the most important reasons of patients' late report to the
doctor, and appearance of the heavy forms of the inflammation of the gall bladder and biliary ways. The acute form of the inflammation of the gall bladder was noticed at 25 patients. The complications of the disease in the sense of cholecystopancreatitis, choledolithiasis, suppurating cholangiitis, choledolithiasis i cholecystoduodenal fistule were found at 27 patients. Postoperative complications were verified at 3 patients, wound infection at 2 patients and peritonitis at one
patient after drawing ouf the T-drain.

EVALUATION OF USAGE MEDICAMENTS FOR TREATMENT OF GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT AND METABOLISM AND TREATMENT OF MUSCULAR AND SCELETAL SYSTEM DISEASES ON THE BASIS OF DEFINED DAILY DOSE

Defined daily dose (DDD) is arbitrary chosen technical unit for measuring medicament usage and it is not a recommended therapeutic dose. It is in fact a statistical parameter for monitoring medicaments usage, and it is related to the
dose which is usually prescribed for the indication that the medicament was registered for. The aim of this work is to perform a detailed analysis of the extent and structure of the region of South Backa. According to the obteined data, medicaments
used in treatment of gastroinestinal tract contributed with 15.52 DDD/1000 inhabitants per day. Most commonly used are antacids and anti-ulcer drugs (8.14 DDD/1000 inhabitants per day). Medicaments used in treatment of muscular and skeletal
system contributed with 14.30 DDD/1000 inhabitants per day. Antiinflammatory and antirheumatic drugs sre used in amounts of 14.18 DDD/1000 inhabitants per day. In our country there is no complex survey of drug usage because there is no way of monitor ing which could apprehend all possible information sources. Defined daily dose is not introduced into practical qualitative and quantitative monitoring. It is necessary to make systematic network of information sources to provide for insight into medicament usage

CENTRAL VENOUS CATHETER FOR HEMODIALYSIS - CURRENT PROBLEMS

The retrospective study included all patients treated at Clinical Centre in Kragujevac, who needed an acute HD treatment due to vital endangerment, during 2003. The objective of this study was to demonstrate our experiences in treating these patients using central venous catheter. The results of this study show that femoral catheters are dominant (over 95%), with slight using of jugular and subclavial catheters (5%), in spite of the recommendation of the American Association for Renal Diseases to use femoral catheters only for patients supposed to be in hospital during the interval of 5 days. The
frequency of infections in our study (16,6%), coincides with the data of the American Association for Nosocomial Infections (NNIS)[1] (17,8% catheter infections). Gram-positive bacterium from Staphylococci group are the most frequent cause of catheter infections also in our patients

SURGICAL INTERVENTION IN PREGNANCY - Anaesthesiological management

The urgent surgical intervention need great atention in pregnant patients because of vital indication all surgical procedure interffer with pregnancy togheter with general anaesthesia and could cause complication of pregnancy and some times a damage of the foetus. Our study include all surgical procedure as the acute abdomen, trauma and politrauma in pregnant patient. Our aime was to give general anaesthesia which should be safe for mother and foetus.Post-operaative therapy and treatment of patients was done by theam of anaesthesia and gynecologists. The anaesthesia monitoring and surgical procedure have been improved up to the presset day but there are steel present great ricks in a treatment of this type of patients.The criteri in surgical and conservative treatment of pregnant patients was determined in colsultacion anaestetist-gynecologists.

QUANTIFIED APPROACH TO FYBROMYALGIA

Fibromyalgia presents a great clinical problem. Existence of no objective criteria for diagnosis is the key problem of this disease in the clinical rheumatology. The task of this work was to present the most practical quantification of fibromyalgia in every-day practice. Out of 37 patients there were 29 (78,3%) women, and 8 (21,6%) men. Out of this number there were 3 (8,1%) with primary fibromyalgia, 8 (21,6%) with secondary fibromyalgia, 25 (67,5%) were concomitant, whereas there was only one atypical case, i.e. (2,7%).

THE MOST FREQUENTLY CARDIAC RHYTHM DISORDERS AT THE SICK OF DECOMPENSATED CHRONIC PULMONARY HEART

Chronic pulmonary heart (CPH) stands for presence of hypertrophy and/or dilatation of right heart ventricle caused by pulmonary hypertension as a consequence of diseases that are damaging lungs function or structure. By chronic pulmonary heart are not considered those hypertrophies of right ventricle which are consequences of left cardiopaths or congenital heart anomalies with skips. During the CPH evolution three stages were formed: a) uncomplicated pneumopathology, b) compensated chronic pulmonary heart and c) decompensated chronic pulmonary heart. The disorders of cardiac rhythm are often at decompensated CPH, which is proved by this scientific work as well. 40 sick people diseased of decompensated CPH are treated in purpose to establish the presence and the characteristics of cardiac arrhythmia at these patients. It is established that the major percentage of frequency is made by sinus tachycardia, atrial extrasystols, and ventricular extrasystols. Of 40 examinees 65% had sinus tachycardia, 37,5% atrial extrasystols, 30% ventricular extrasystols and 20% combined atrial and ventricular extrasystols. This proves us that there is a significant percentage of cardiac rhythm disorder frequency at the sick people of decompensated chronic pulmonary heart.

GENESIS, PATHOPHYSIOLOGY AND TREATMENT OF PREMATURE LABOUR

Premature labour is provoked by noumerous causes that represent a combination of socioeconomic, maternal and fetal factors, that usually act together. The introduction of of tocolytic agents in obstetric practice has not appeared to substantially change the incidence of preterm delivery. This problem is still one of the unsolved ones in perinatal medicine. The aim of the study was to present how structural and functional anomalies of placental physiology can be connected with this disarrangement of pregnancy.In our study of 327 pregnancies controled in our unit in 41 (13,26%) symtoms of premature labour were present: contractions, vaginal bleeding, abrevation and dilatation of cervical ostium. With adequate treatment, in form of combination of tocolytics, spasmolytics, hormones, nonsteroid antiinflammatorz drugs, antibiotics and atimycotics we have posponed delivery to term in 34 (82,92%) of cases. The use of appropriate medications, that blocks pahtophysiological mechanisms responsible for preterm labour in most cases we can enable prolongation of gestation and term delivery.

IMPORTANCE OF ANAMNESIS AT THE FOREIGN BODIES OF THE LOWER RESPIRATORY WAYS

Foreign bodies of the lower respiratory ways represent a very important chapter in ENT and medicine in general,
becouse they can lead to child fatal results in very short time due the obstruction and suffocation. They considered as some of the most urgent states in medicine, so that the childs life depends on correctly and quickly made diagnostic and skilfully do
ne intervention. The authors have analysed the importance of anamnesis at the patients which have the foreign body in the
lower respiratory ways, hospitalized at the ENT Clinic and Pediatric Clinic of the CHC Priština, during the period of 1994 -
1999. Results of ork are showed that 132 childrens have been hospitalized during this period, and 119 of them were with
positively anamnesis for foreign body, while 13 were with negatively anamnesis, but with positive clinical and/or radiolo
gical findings. From 119 patients with positively anamnesis, 82.38% had positive TBSC finding, while patients with nega
tively anamnesis (13) had positive TBSC finding in 23.08% cases. The largest number of the children has been male pole
(64.36%), of the age of 3 and younger (73.27%), the most frequent foreign body was raw grain of bean (31.69%), and peanut (16.83%), and the most frequent localisation has been the right bronchi (57.43%). The most foreign bodies have been extracted by the upper tracheobronchoscopy (99.01%), while in only 0.99% of the cases tracheostomy and lower tracheobron choscopy applied. Positive anamnesis for foreign body of the lower respiratory ways was sufficient reason to indicate a tracheobronchoscopy, but if patients had positively clinical and/or radiological findings, negatively anamnesis must be interpreting very carefully
