Obstructive Sleep Apnea-Hypopnea Syndrome (OSAHS) is a condition characterized by intermittent partial collapse and closure of the upper airway (UA). This leads to sleep fragmentation, oxygen desaturation, hypercarbia, and activation of the sympathetic nervous system. OSAHS is also associated with
Rheosorbilact® has rheological, anti-shock, detoxification, and alkalizing effects. Sorbitol and sodium lactate are the major pharmacologically active ingredients. In the liver, sorbitol is first converted into fructose, which is then converted into glucose, and then into glycogen. Part of sorbitol

Within four weeks of consent, subjects will have an Implantable Loop Recorder (ILR) (Medtronic LINQ) device implanted. Subjects will be given a transmitter/charger and a Patient Care Assistant which they will be required to keep for the duration of their participation in the study. ILR tracings will

REVIEW OF LITERATURE The ideal prime for Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB) has never been fully established. The development of acid-base disorders during some routine cases and the possible contribution to this from priming fluids caused this hospital to question its protocol.

Twelve healthy normotensive individuals, between 20-65 years old, without high blood pressure will be recruited to the study. Study individuals will be recruited among the hospital staff on a voluntary basis.
The study period will consist of three phases prior to which potential volunteers will be
A. Introduction and Review of literature
Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is broadly defined as an alteration in mental status and cognitive function occurring in presence of liver failure. The clinical picture of HE arises as a complication of chronic and, more rarely, acute liver disease. HE occurs in
The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that Gitelman syndrome (GS) can be diagnosed using a simple clinical protocol. GS is an inherited kidney disease that usually shows up in patients as low blood potassium levels. Currently, no commercial genetic test for GS exists. Currently, GS is
Acute renal failure is common among the critically ill [1-3] , and is an independent contributor to morbidity and mortality [4,5]. Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is commonly used for renal replacement in this group. This requires an extracorporeal circuit, the maintenance of which
Renal impairment following cardiopulmonary bypass is common. 11.4% to 42% of patients with previously normal renal function show a postoperative rise in serum creatinine. While most of these patients do not require either short or long term renal replacement, the mortality of patients with acute
Background: Hypochloremic hypovolemic metabolic alkalosis contributes to hypercapnia in acute exacerbations of cystic fibrosis. Treatment of the metabolic alkalosis with volume and sodium chloride (NaCl) replacement could reduce hypoventilation and hypercapnia, thereby improving symptoms, sleep
Study Design: A six week, open-label, flexible dosing study using quetiapine. Subjects who qualify at Screening will then proceed to the baseline visit. If all inclusion and exclusion criteria are met, subjects will be administered quetiapine at the baseline visit. Enrollment will be 15 subjects.
