The 2-10 keV emission properties of PSR B1937+21
We present the results of a BeppoSAX observation of the fastest pulsar known:
PSR B1937+21. The ~ 200 ks observation (78.5 (34) ks MECS (LECS) exposure
times) allowed us to investigate with high statistical significance both the
spectral properties and the pulse profile shape. The absorbed power law
spectral model gave a photon index of ~ 1.7 and N_H ~ 2.3 x 10^22 cm^-2. These
values explain both a) the ROSAT non-detection and b) the deviant estimate of a
photon index of ~ 0.8 obtained by ASCA. The pulse profile appears, for the
first time, clearly double peaked with the main component much stronger than
the other. The statistical significance is 10 sigma (main peak) and 5 sigma
(secondary peak). The 1.6-10 keV pulsed fraction is consistent with 100%; only
in the 1.6-4 keV band there is a ~ 2 sigma indication for a DC component. The
secondary peak is detected significantly only for energies above 3 / 4 keV. The
unabsorbed (2-10 keV) flux is F_2-10 = 3.7 x 10^-13 erg cm^-2 s^-1, implying a
luminosity of L_X = 4.6 x 10^31 Theta (d/3.6 kpc)^2 erg s^-1 and an X-ray
efficiency of eta = 4 x 10^-5 Theta, where Theta is the solid angle spanned by
the emission beam. These results are in agreement with those obtained by ASCA.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures, 2 tables. To appear in the Proceedings of the

No drain, autologous transfusion drain or suction drain? A randomised prospective study in total hip replacement surgery of 168 patients
We performed a prospective, randomised controlled trial to assess the differences in the use of a conventional suction drain, an Autologous Blood Transfusion (ABT) drain and no drain, in 168 patients. There was no significant difference between the drainage from ABT drains ( mean : 345 ml) and the suction drain (314 ml). Forty percent of patients receiving a suction drain had a haemoglobin level less than 10 g/dL at 24 hours, compared to 35% with no drain and 28% with an ABT drain. Patients that had no drains had wounds that were dry significantly sooner, mean 3.0 days compared to a mean of 3.9 days with an ABT drain and a mean of 4 days with a suction drain. Patients that did not have a drain inserted stayed in hospital a significantly shorter period of time, compared with drains. We feel the benefits of quicker drying wounds, shorter hospital stays and the economic savings justify the conclusion that no drain is required after hip replacement
