Does propofol inhibit Ca ( 2+ ) transients but not contraction in intact beating guinea pig hearts?
This is the first study of the effects of propofol on intracellular Ca(2+) concentration and myofilament Ca(2+) sensitivity under physiologic conditions in intact isolated beating guinea pig hearts.
Prolonged catheter drainage is more efficient for management of recurrent sterile fluid collections in acute pancreatitis than is conservative treatment. Conservative treatment is successful for patients with small fluid collections.
