[Cardiac and vascular effects of midazolam during induction of anesthesia prior to and during extracorporeal circulation in coronary-surgical patients (author's transl)].

8-Chloro-6-(2-fluorophenyl)-1-methyl-4H-imidazo[1,5-a] [1,4]benzodiazepine (midazolam, Ro 21-3981, Dormicum) is a new benzodiazepine which, when compared with its predecessors diazepam (Valium) and flunitrazepam (Rohypnol), has several outstanding advantages: We conducted hemodynamic investigations with 0.15 mg/kg b.w. midazolam in a total of 28 coronary patients divided into 3 groups. The new water-soluble benzodiazepine is at the dose given useful in the induction of and as an adjuvant to anesthesia because of its hemodynamic effect.

[Injury to the mediastinal organs in chest trauma (author's transl)].

10% of chest traumata are accompanied by injuries to the mediastinal organs. Since rupture of a bronchus may be masked by additional intrathoracic injuries any suspicion of such lesion must be verified by bronchoscopy. Symptoms of a shock condition after traumatization of the precordial region point to damage to the heart the extent of which may range from a slight disturbance of cardiac function (commotio cordis) to laceration of cardiac tissue and rupture of the myocardium. Enlargement of the mediastinum after a sufficiently forceful chest trauma should be examined by visualization of the aortic arch to elucidate its aetiology and exclude an aortic aneurysm. The mortality of chest trauma involving the mediastinal structures is 35%. This fairly high figure is partly attributable to severe accompanying injuries.
