[Infusion of vasoactive drugs at low flow rate: Effects of the syringe switch and syringe volume (experimental study)].
The flow rate of intravenous administration of vasoactive agents should be steady in order to prevent changes in hemodynamics. In the newborns, because the flow rate is often lower than 1mL/h, it is difficult to switch of the syringe. The aim of our study was to compare the variations of concentration of active substance delivered after a manual or an automatic switch off the syringe with three different volumes (10mL, 20mL and 50mL). ⋯ In newborns, in order to prevent the change in flow rate of drugs after a switch of syringes, our results suggest the use of syringe-pump with built-in automatic switch and small-volume syringes.

Observational Study[Observational study on outpatient sleeve gastrectomy.]
The development of outpatient surgery is one of the major goals of the public health policy in 2010. The purpose of this observational study is to evaluate the feasibility of the laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) in ambulatory. ⋯ The laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy in ambulatory is feasible with a dedicated anesthesiological concept in an expert surgical team. Appropriate patient selection is important in order to secure safety and quality of care within outpatient program. The risk versus benefit must be adequately evaluated on an individual basis.
