(1) The highest success rates (98 per cent) occurred when the basilic vein was used, with the patient positioned so that the upper part of the body was raised at 45-90 degrees to the horizontal and using a Bardic 16 gauge catheter with a special insertion technique, which is described.
(2) Bob Dylan is credited with many revolutionary acts: bringing eloquently passionate politics into folk music; turning Brando and Dean's rejectionist sneers into musical notes; plugging his bardic songwriter aesthetic into an electric amp and thereby changing the world.
Baric
Definition:
(a.) Of or pertaining to barium; as, baric oxide.
(a.) Of or pertaining to weight, esp. to the weight or pressure of the atmosphere as measured by the barometer.
Example Sentences:
(1) The distribution of hyperbaric bupivacaine within the subarachnoid space appears to be related to baricity but is unrelated to administration via needle or catheter.
(2) When hyperbaric 0.5% bupivacaine was injected instead of plain solution for the second block using a similar technique, no baricity-related correlation was found between the first and second blocks.
(3) Authorities also ordered residents of another nearby small town, Baric, to leave immediately on Saturday afternoon.
(4) An 11-year-old girl was anesthetized with hyper-baric solution of lidocaine as spinal anesthesia for an appendectomy in a surgical clinic.
(5) Physico-chemical factors such as lipid solubility, degree of ionization in the CSF and the baricity of the opioid solution are important in determining the rate of clearance by these three routes.
(6) Therefore, baricity is an important determinant of local anaesthetic distribution in the subarachnoid space.
(7) Some steps in replication involve host cell proteins (Baric et al., 1983), so that there may be unique, unexplored interactions with neurons or ependymal cells leading to increased neurovirulence for mice that are not represented in the typical BHK, Vero, or chick embryo fibroblast cell culture system.
(8) It is concluded that small differences in baricity result in largely different distribution patterns that could explain the variability in sensory levels of blockade when using an isobaric solution for spinal anesthesia.
(9) The effect of baricity of 0.5% bupivacaine on the incidence of tourniquet pain when used for spinal anesthesia was evaluated in 60 patients undergoing orthopedic surgery.
(10) Each solution had a volume of 3 ml and differed from the others by its mass or its baricity.
(11) The role of the baricity of local anaesthetic solutions in determining the distribution of local anaesthetics injected into the subarachnoid space (and hence the level of anaesthesia) has been challenged.
(12) We conclude that individual anatomical properties may play a more important role than, for example, baricity in subarachnoid distribution of a local anaesthetic solution.
(13) Besides the patient's position other factors may influence the cephalad spread of sensory blockade such as baricity of local anesthetics, speed of injection, dose, volume, barbotage and size of needle.
(14) The strains are characterized by genetic linkage between attenuation, accelerated penetration of baby hamster kidney cells, and efficient neutralization by the E2-specific monoclonal antibodies R6 and R13; selection for change in one property simultaneously selected for change in the other two (Olmsted, R. A., Baric, R. S., Sawyer, B.
