TECHNICAL COMMUNICATION - A Comparison of Atenolol, Labetalol, Esmolol, and Landiolol for Altering Human Neutrophil Functions - IMPLICATIONS: Neutrophils play a pivotal role in the antibacterial host defense system. Atenolol, labetalol, esmolol, and landiolol at clinically relevant concentrations failed to change neutrophil functions. Ourfindings indicate that we may be able to use these b-antagonists without great caution in clinical settings./

TECHNICAL COMMUNICATION - A Study of the Paravertebral Anatomy for Ultrasound-Guided Posterior Lumbar Plexus Block - IMPLICATIONS: We investigated the feasibility of posterior paravertebral sonography as a basis for ultrasound-guided posterior lumbar plexus blockades. Posterior paravertebral sonography proved to be a reliable as well as accurate imaging procedure for visualization of the lumbar paravertebral region except the lumbar plexus./

TECHNICAL COMMUNICATION - Designing Meaningful Industry Metrics for Clinical Productivity for Anesthesiology Departments - IMPLICATIONS: Clinical productivity measurements that account for differences in clinical settings and concurrencies provided more precise comparisons between two anesthesiology groups. The data show that different concurrencies confound the current industry standard, "per full-time equivalent" measurements, whereas "per operating room site" and "per case" measurements allowed for more meaningful comparisons./

TECHNICAL COMMUNICATION - Intraoperative Monitoring of the Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve in 151 Consecutive Patients Undergoing Thyroid Surgery - IMPLICATIONS: We present a technique of intraoperative monitoring of the recurrent laryngeal nerve using a surface electrode attached to a routine endotracheal tube. The technique proved noninvasive, easy to use, and reliable in 151 prospective consecutive patients for preventing permanent laryngeal nerve damage in thyroid surgery./

TECHNICAL COMMUNICATION - Practical Issues in Bispectral Analysis of Electroencephalographic Signals - IMPLICATIONS: The aim of this report was to confirm the methodology of bispectral analysis of electroencephalogram. In developing a software for real-time bispectral analysis, we encountered several practical problems in bispectrum calculation. We settled those and concluded that 3 min of monitoring are required to obtain reliable and reproducible bicoherence values./

TECHNICAL COMMUNICATION - Productivity Versus Availability as a Measure of Faculty Clinical Responsibility - IMPLICATIONS: Accountability of clinical activities by faculty is crucial to the financial status of any department of anesthesia. We hypothesized that methods of availability (e.g., amount of time scheduled for clinical activities) versus productivity measure (actual amount of clinical care delivered) would be quite different between faculty and differing subspecialty groups. Even though the availability system distributed clinical time on an equal basis, there was a wide difference of clinical productivity within and between specialty groups. We conclude that a productivity measure (i.e., billable hours) is a more accurate reflection of faculty productivity than an availability system and is more in line with departmental sources of financial income./

TECHNICAL COMMUNICATIONS - A Simple and Inexpensive Nasal Cannula to Prevent Rebreathing for Spontaneously Breathing Patients Under Surgical Drapes - IMPLICATIONS: A new nasal cannula that provides oxygenation and suctioning simultaneously prevents rebreathing during surgery in spontaneously breathing patients under surgical drapes. When air is not suctioned, inspired CO2 levels increase significantly, whereas suctioning prevents this increase. Expiratory CO2, respiratory rate, heart rate, and arterial blood pressure remain stable regardless of suctioning./

TECHNICAL COMMUNICATION - The Assessment of the Proximal Left Pulmonary Artery by Transesophageal Echocardiography and Computed Tomography in Neonates and Infants: A Case Series - IMPLICATIONS: Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is often used during surgical repair of congenital heart disease. In our case series of 256 newborns and infants, we found that a left paracarinal view of TEE could visualize the proximal left pulmonary artery, a frequent blind spot for TEE, in most patients, except in a few cases with anatomic variations of the esophagus in the right lateral to the vertebra./

Methemoglobinemia may occur even after the manufacturer's suggested spraying guidelines. We saw no correlation between dose and spraying time or number of sprays./
