The Incidence of hypotension with continuous infusion atracurium compared to cisatracurium in the Intensive Care Unit
BACKGROUND A drug shortage of cisatracurium led to use of atracurium as an alternative neuromuscular blocker (NMB). Cisatracurium may be preferred due to less histamine release and potentially less hypotension. The study purpose is to compare the incidence of hypotension with continuous infusion atracurium to continuous infusion cisatracurium in ICU patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retros...
متن کاملDetermination of continuous atracurium infusion rate in dogs undergoing whole-body hyperthermia.
Infusion rates for atracurium were calculated from multiple bolus injection data for normothermic (38 degrees C; n = 4) and hyperthermic (42 degrees C; n = 14) dogs anesthetized with thiopental and oxymorphone while undergoing whole-body hyperthermia treatment. The calculated infusion rate for atracurium at 38 degrees C was 6.2 +/- 0.3 micrograms/kg/min and the calculated infusion rate at 42 de...
متن کاملComparison of Continuous and Intermittent IV Infusion of Vancomycin: Systematic Review.
BACKGROUND There is some evidence that administration of vancomycin by continuous infusion has pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic advantages over traditional intermittent dosing. Whether these advantages translate into clinical efficacy remains controversial. OBJECTIVE To review the literature comparing continuous infusion of vancomycin and conventional intermittent IV dosing in terms of eff...
متن کاملIntracoronary continuous adenosine infusion.
BACKGROUND Various methods are used to induce maximal hyperemia for physiologic studies, but the feasibility and efficacy of continuous intracoronary (IC) infusion of adenosine for measurement of fractional flow reserve (FFR) has not been well-defined. METHODS AND RESULTS Patients with intermediate coronary artery stenosis were consecutively enrolled. In the phase I study, FFR was measured af...
متن کاملDetermination of lymphocyte turnover by continuous infusion of H3 thymidine.
ECENTLY, the life span of the lymphocyte has become a subject of considerable interest as well as controversy among hematologists. The large numbers of lymphocytes entering the general circulation from the thoracic duct point to a short life span of less than a day,1 while isotopic experiments24 indicate either long life spans of weeks or months or reutilization of large fragments of nuclear co...
