As a result, We found that there was a tendency for the volume of blood flow to the fingertips to significantly increase when listening to classical music, but there was a variety of changes in blood flow between each age group for healing music and J-Pop music. When measuring heart rate it was found that the LF/HF value, which is an index for the autonomic nervous system which shows tension and stress, fell significantly when listening to each type of music. Lastly, there was a trend for body surface temperature to rise when listening to classical or healing music, a rise which was particularly significant when listening to healing music. This study shows that a relaxing effect can be expected for all indices when listening to classical music. However, for healing music and J-Pop, personal musical preferences seemed to have an effect and the results were varied.展开更多

Methods\ These parameters were done to evaluate the use of repeated cardiopulmonary bypass support for the intraoperative heart failure following aorto coronary bypass surgery. Included in this study were 10 patients with a mean age of 70 and unstable angina undergoing coronary bypass grafting and suffering from intraoperative heart failure. The epicardiai microflow, graft flow, mean arterial pressure and blood cell filterability were measured. Resluts\ During heart failure, the mean arterial pressure fell by 41%(P<0.01), graft flow by 67%(P<0.01) and epicardialmicroflow by 64%(P<0.01). After 15 to 56 min of assisted cardiopulmonary bypass support, the epicardial microflow and graft flow were partially restored, while red cell and white cell filterability was reduced by 31% and 64% respectively (P<0.01). There were significant correlations between graft flow, epicardial microflow, blood cell filterability and cardiopulmonary bypass time. All patients recovered and were discharged from the hospital.Conclusion\ It is concluded that the use of temporary assisted CPB support to treat intrapoperative heart failure allows the recovery of the myocardium and thereby restores the mean arterial pressure. The recovery of graft flow and epicardial flow occurred to a lesser extent. The CPB support seemed to be suitable for about 60 min probably because of increasing disturbance to the blood cell filterability, graft flow and the epicardial microcirculation.\;展开更多
