Fibreoptic Intubation With and Without Sellick´s Maneuver
Intubation IntraesophagealRespiratory Aspiration of Gastric ContentsThe goal of this study is to evaluate the effect of Sellick´s Maneuver, a firm pressure on the throat, just below the Adams apple, to occlude the esophagus, in order to prevent aspiration of gastric contents, on intubation with a flexible fiberscope. The result of this study will be participate in the discussion of the importance of Sellick´s Maneuver.

The Comparison of Oxidative Stress Between Inhalation Anesthetics
Oxidative StressCardiac SurgeryOxidative stress is an unavoidable event during cardiac surgery. Isoprostanes have been demonstrated to be a reliable biomarker for the evaluation of oxidative stress in vivo.The aims of this study are(1)to develop an accurate liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry methods for the detection of urinary isoprostane isomers in samples collected from healthy volunteers(for method quality control) and patients receiving a cardiac surgery (2)to investigate the change of isoprostanes after cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB) (3)to investigate the effect of different anesthetics on isoprostanes.
