An Anesthetic Technique Utilizing Innovar, Fentanyl, And Methohexital Sodium For Outpatient Oral Surgery, Fredric D. Haerich May 1971

An Anesthetic Technique Utilizing Innovar, Fentanyl, And Methohexital Sodium For Outpatient Oral Surgery, Fredric D. Haerich

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

A study of 800 patients ranging in age from seven to one hundred years was conducted in the development of an anesthetic technique which combines the desirable qualities of a neuroleptic agent with the requirements of an outpatient oral surgical anesthetic. These requirements included rapidity of onset, effectiveness of action, ease of controlling duration, and rapid postoperative recovery.

Patients who were cleared medically for outpatient procedures were given Innovar 1.5 cc/150 lb of body weight, atropine 0.4 mg, and fentanyl 1.0 cc/150 lb of body weight as an initial dose within 30-45 seconds in a D5W drip by means of …


A Technique For The Experimental Production Of Dry Socket In The Cat And An Evaluation Of Numerous Potential Etiologic Factors, Thomas F. Scott May 1971

A Technique For The Experimental Production Of Dry Socket In The Cat And An Evaluation Of Numerous Potential Etiologic Factors, Thomas F. Scott

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Dental dry socket has been attributed to a variety of etiologic factors without basic science research. Before a systematic attempt could be undertaken to determine the initiator/s of dry socket, if such exists, an experimental technique had to be developed which could consistently produce dry socket. A dental extraction socket infusion technique was developed with the cat that enabled the investigator to study some of the initiating factors which have been previously suggested as possible etiologic causes for the production of dry socket.

From the present study such factors as trauma, age, sex, site and number of extractions, lack of …
