الغاية من الدراسة:هو تقيم الاعراض السريرية والفحوصات الشعاعية ونتائج العلاج الجراحي من ناحية حدوث المضاعافات والوفيات وتحسن الحالة العصبية السريرية للمريض.

طرق العمل:دراسه رجعية ومستقبلية تشمل 25 مريض يعاني من الاكياس المائية في العمود الفقري خلال خمسة سنوات في مدينة الطب (2010-2015) بعد اجراء الفحوصات السريرية و الشعاعية الازمة اجريت لجميع المرضى عملية فتح الفقرات من الخلف مع رفع الاكياس المائية وبدون تثبيت الفقرات مع اعطاء علاج البندازول لمدة ثلاثة اشهر مع المتابعة الطبية ولمدة تتراوح من ستة اشهر الى سنتين.

Simultaneous Determination of Piroxicam and Codeine Phosphate Hemihydrate in a Pharmaceutical Dosage Form Using Validated HPLC Method

An easy, eclectic, precise high-Performance Liquid Chromatographic (HPLC) procedure was evolved and validated to estimate of Piroxicam and Codeine phosphate. Chromatographic demarcation was accomplished on a C18 column [Use BDS Hypersil C18, 5μ, 150 x 4.6 mm] using a mobile phase of methanol: phosphate buffer (60:40, v/v, pH=2.3), the flow rate was 1.1 mL/min, UV detection was at 214 nm. System Suitability tests (SSTs) are typically performed to assess the suitability and effectiveness of the entire chromatography system. The retention time for Piroxicam was found to be 3.95 minutes and 1.46 minutes for Codeine phosphate. The evolved method has been validated through precision, limit of quantitation, specificity,
