A method is described for the continuous intravenous infusion of fluids in the unanesthetized rat. When rats were infused continuously with glucose solutions for 6–14 days the total amount of islet tissue was greatly increased, as compared to that of saline-infused controls. This increase was evident also when considered in relation to pancreas weight or body weight.

When sufficiently large amounts of desiccated thyroid gland were administered to intact or hypophysectomized rats there was an increase in the weight of the pancreas, weight of the islets of Langerhans, and islet weight per unit of body weight. In intact rats the concentration of islet tissue in the pancreas was not significantly altered, but in hypophysectomized animals the concentration of islet tissue in the pancreas was reduced because of the large increase in pancreas weight. The great reduction in pancreas weight occasioned by hypophysectomy was to a large extent prevented by the administration of desiccated thyroid gland.

Abstract. We reviewed all outpatients with bone and joint infection treated with cefoxitin in continuous intravenous infusion using mobile elastomeric infusors in our regional reference center between 2014 and 2017. The stability of cefoxitin provides an interesting and well-tolerated alternative for continuous infusion in outpatients with polymicrobial bone and joint infection.

39 experiments were carried out in baboons using continuous intravenous infusion of alphaxalone-alphadolone as an anaesthetic for periods of up to 6 h. This steroid anaesthetic was found to be safe and reliable, with smooth, rapid induction, uneventful recovery, and no evidence of cumulative effect.

Frequent Monitoring

Effects of insulin on exchanges of glucose across skeletal muscle and mammary tissue were measured in short-term studies in lactating ewes. Insulin secretion was suppressed by a primed/continuous infusion of somatostatin, then insulin was administered by continuous intravenous infusion of doses that were increased, in a step-wise manner, from 0 to 2 U h -I. Plasma glucose was maintained essentially constant by frequent monitoring and intravenous administration of exogenous glucose.

The effect of a 5-day continuous intravenous infusion of somatostatin (4�6 ng min- I kg-I) was studied, using anoestrous ewes given 791 g dry matter per day of a 60: 40 lucerne hay: oat grain pelleted diet from a continuously moving belt. 5ICr-EDTA, I03Ru-phenanthroline and lignin were used as markers to determine digesta mean retention times (MRT) by a continuous infusion-total sampling procedure.

Estimates of the spanchnic retention and appearance in the systemic circulation of orally administered glucose vary among laboratories even after recently identified sources of error have been accounted for [Livesey, G., P. D. G. Wilson, J. R. Dainty, J. C. Brown, R. M. Faulks, M. A. Roe, T. A. Newman, J. Eagles, F. A. Mellon, and R. Greenwood. Am. J. Physiol. 275 ( Endocrinol. Metab. 38): E717–E728, 1998]. We questioned whether, in healthy humans,d-glucose delivered intraluminally to the midjejunum appeared systemically as extensively as that delivered intraduodenally. Subjects were infused over a period of 90 min with 50 g of glucose in 1 liter of isotonic saline (incorporating 0.5 gd-[13C6]glucose) per 70 kg of body weight. Infusions were via enteral tubes terminating ∼15 and 100 cm postpylorus. The systemic appearance of glucose was monitored by means of a primed-continuous intravenous infusion ofd-[6,6-2H2]glucose. Whereas 98 ± 2% ( n = 7) of the duodenally infused glucose appeared in the systemic circulation, only 35 ± 9% ( n = 7) of midjejunally infused glucose did so, implying that 65 ± 9% was retained in the splanchnic bed. Either glucose was less efficiently absorbed at the midintestinal site or hepatic glucose sequestration was increased 10-fold, or both. The proximal intestine plays a key role in the delivery of glucose to the systemic circulation, and the distal intestine potentially delivers more glucose to the liver.

New System

The swivel system described has been used by ILOB-TNO for prolonged periods of continuous infusion. It allows for less restricted movement of animals. The swivel prevents the infusion tube from twisting. The swivel system is simple, safe to operate and cost-effective. Animals have greater movement, can stretch and turn around. The physical discomfort and psychological stress of restricted movement are greatly reduced. The potentially complicating/confusing effects on the measurements taken during an experiment are reduced.
