摘要:

The purpose of this study was to describe the physiologic and behavioral responses of children receiving intermittent intravenous morphine following orthopaedic surgery. The nonrandomized sample was made up of 29 children between the ages of 6 months and 11 years. Subjects received morphine IV push over 5 minutes (0.1 mg/kg body weight) every 3-4 hours prn. Heart rate, respiratory rate, transcutaneous CO2and oxygen saturation were collected prior to administration and then at 5-minute intervals for a total of 25 minutes. Pain cue behaviors were assessed prior to morphine and at 25 minutes after intravenous injection, the time of peak analgesia. Subjects received a total of 199 doses of morphine. Physiologic data were analyzed using repeated measures of variance with Waller-Duncan multiple comparison procedures. The results of this study support the safe and effective use of intravenous morphine in children 6 months to 11 years following orthopaedic surgery.

Despite the “magic” that professional dancers display, they, too, are subject to physical limitations. As an old German proverb suggests. “If you want to dance, you must pay the piper.”In a recent interview, Samuel Bennett of Ballet Chicago speculated that many dance injuries are the result of attempting to achieve a physical ideal that probably doesn't exist. The following is an overview of dance injuries, their prevention, and their treatment. The focus is on ballet.
