The women were enrolled prospectively in separate, sequential, nonrandomized clinical trials and treated with nystatin vaginal suppository at 20 MU per day for 7 days or two 1,200-mg doses of miconazole vaginal suppositories 72 hours apart or oral fluconazole two 150-mg doses 72 hours apart or oral itraconazole 200 mg two times for 1 day.
A cannula needle is a stainless steel, hollow needle encased by a hollow plastic tube. The needle closely resembles a medical syringe tip, except that the needle isn't always attached to a plastic barrel for extracting fluids or tissue.
The best results are obtained using multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) scanners. An intravenous cannula is required for the administration of the 50-150 ml of radiocontrast. This is injected, usually automatically, by a syringe driver, at a rate of up to 8 ml/s. Many hospitals use bolus tracking, where the scan commences when the contrast is detected at the level of the proximal pulmonary arteries.
