Inhibition of neuronal and extraneuronal uptake of noradrenaline by ketamine in the isolated perfused rat heart.

The effect of ketamine on the uptake of 3H-noradrenaline in the isolated perfused rat heart was studied. A dose-dependent inhibition of uptake by both neuronal and extraneuronal processes was found. These effects may account for the positive chronotropic and pressor effects of the drug.

Sepsis in a CPAP system.

Bacterial contamination of a continuous positive airway pressure system has been investigated and found to be virtually confined to the adjustable valve 'at the mouth'. Organisms isolated from this site are probably derived from those in the sputum. The practical implications of these findings are outlined.
