Depression of respiratory drive by diazepam as premedication.
The respiratory effects of premedication with i.v. injection of diazepam have been assessed in 10 healthy patients awaiting minor operative procedures. Measurements were recorded before and 60 min after administration of diazepam 0.14 mg kg-1. Mouth occlusion pressure (P 0.1) was used as an index of neuromuscular inspiratory drive. Minute-ventilation (VE), respiratory frequency (f) and mean ins...
متن کاملDepression of central respiratory drive by nitrazepam.
In a group of patients with chronic bronchitis, repeated night sedation with 10 mg nitrazepam produced a fall in central respiratory drive and a steady rise in arterial carbon dioxide tension. The changes produced over a five-day period were not clinically important, except in two patients who were already hypercapnic before receiving nitrazepam. The use of this drug in patients with carbon dio...
متن کاملDiazepam premedication in ophthalmic surgery.
Diazepam (Valium), which meets most of the above requirements extremely well, is a tranquillizer of the benzodiazepine class, causing muscle relaxation and reduction of skeletal muscle tone (Ranidall, Heise, Schallek, Bagdon, Banziger, Boris, Mol, and Abrams, I96I). This action appears to be mediated through the central nervous system, for it can be shown that the stimulation of muscle through ...
متن کاملComparison of triazolam, diazepam, and placebo as outpatient oral premedication for endodontic patients.
Triazolam and diazepam were compared as oral antianxiety agents in a randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study of 79 endodontic patients with elevated anxiety regarding endodontic treatment. Patients who scored > or = 10 on the Corah Dental Anxiety Survey received oral formulations of triazolam (0.25 mg), diazepam (5 mg), or placebo. Before, during, and after the endodontic pro...
متن کاملEffects of midazolam and diazepam as premedication on heart rate variability in surgical patients.
We have examined the effects of midazolam 0.06 mg kg-1 i.m. and diazepam 0.2 mg kg-1 orally as premedication on the spectral components of heart rate (HR) variability in 24 elderly patients aged 65-87 yr and 24 young patients aged 18-35 yr undergoing elective surgery. The low-frequency/high-frequency (LF/HF) ratio of HR variability increased after arrival in the operating room in elderly patien...
