BACKGROUND Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage is a significant cause of death and disability. Nimodipine 60 mg administered enterally every 4 h improves neurologic outcomes in these patients. However, hypotension is an adverse effect of nimodipine and is believed to prompt clinicians to prescribe an unproven, nonstandard nimodipine dosing regimen. OBJECTIVES The primary objective was to deter...
Nimodipine is a calcium antagonist that binds with high affinity to neuronal membranes. It is a potent cerebrovasodilator and has been demonstrated also to affect neurotransmitter synthesis and release. Because patients undergoing surgery for intracranial aneurysms are frequently receiving nimodipine, the authors determined the MAC of isoflurane in six dogs before and during three infusion dose...
The effect of pretreatment with the calcium antagonist nimodipine on the pathophysiological events which follow an intracerebral haemorrhage in rats was compared with a similar control group. Cerebral blood flow was higher and the amount of pathologically determined ischaemic damage measured by light microscopy was less in the nimodipine pretreated group. Bloodbrain barrier permeability was inc...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The Very Early Nimodipine Use in Stroke (VENUS) trial was designed to test the hypothesis that early treatment with nimodipine has a positive effect on survival and functional outcome after stroke. This was suggested in a previous meta-analysis on the use of nimodipine in stroke. However, in a recent Cochrane review we were unable to reproduce these positive results. This...
Nimodipine shws promise in the prevention and treatment of brain ischemia. We examined the interaction of nimodipine pretreatment in a dose sufficient to prevent postischemic hypoperfusion and hyperventilation. We studied four groups of rats: normocarbia plus vehicle (Group 1, n = 5), hypocarbia plus vehicle (Group 2, n = 4), normocarbia plus nimodipine (Group 3, n = 7), and hypocarbia plus nim...
Nimodipine is well characterized for the management of SAH (subarachnoid hemorrhage) and has been shown to promote a better outcome and less DIND (delayed ischemic neurological deficits). In rat experiments, enhanced axonal sprouting and higher survival of motoneurons was demonstrated after cutting or crushing the facial nerve by nimodipine. These results were confirmed in clinical trials follo...
Recent studies suggest that nimodipine, a potent calcium-channel antagonist that causes significant cerebrovascular dilatation, may improve neurological outcome after acute experimental permanent focal cerebral ischemia when given before or immediately after occlusion of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) in various animals. The authors describe the effect of nimodipine on cerebral ischemia in a ...
Nimodipine, a Ca2+ antagonist with cerebrovasodilatory and anti-ischemic effects, binds to rat, guinea pig, and human brain membranes with high affinity (less than 1 nM). Only at higher concentrations has nimodipine been reported to block the release of some neurotransmitters and hormones from neuronal tissue. Nimodipine has no consistent effect on brain oxygen consumption or cortical ATP or ph...
The protective effect of a L-type calcium channel blocker, nimodipine, on cell injury induced by oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) in PC12 cells was investigated. PC12 cells were exposed to in-vitro oxygen-glucose deprivation (30 minutes and 60 minutes respectively) in the presence or absence of nimodipine (10mM/L) in three different time schedules (pre-24h, pre-3h and concurrently). Cellular vi...
PURPOSE Calcium antagonists are strong vasodilators, and nimodipine is known to improve cerebral blood flow. The purpose of this study was to measure retinal blood flow and nimodipine plasma concentrations during repeated oral dosing. METHODS In a double-blind, two-way, crossover study, 20 healthy subjects (mean age, 22.8 +/- 3.7 years) underwent examination of retinal perfusion and nimodipin...
