Labetalol infusion for refractory hypertension causing severe hypotension and bradycardia: an issue of patient safety
Incremental doses of intravenous labetalol are safe and effective and, at times, such therapy may need to be augmented by a continuous infusion of labetalol to control severe hypertension. Continuous infusions of labetalol may exceed the recommended maximum daily dose of 300 mg on occasion. We report a case in which hypertension occurring after an abdominal aortic aneurysm repair, initially res...
متن کاملContinuous infusion of papaveretum for relief of postoperative pain.
Postoperative analgesia, once established initially by the titration method, is sustained with a flexible regime of papaveretum, infused continuously with a portable syringe pump. The initial analgesic requirement (TAR) for titrating the pain threshold level, was between 4 and 10 mg of papaveretum and the maintenance dose between 1 and 1-66 mg/hr for the first 24 hr and between 083 and 1 mg/hr ...
متن کاملManaging hypertension in patients with stroke. Are you prepared for labetalol infusion?
As community hospitals adopt comprehensive stroke pathways, nurses in critical care areas must prepare for each possible complication. Although the thrombolytic component of a new stroke protocol may receive the most attention, the various details of the pathway--in this case, management of blood pressure--should not be overlooked. Critical care nurses who appreciate the considerations for trea...
متن کاملPostoperative analgesia by continuous extradural infusion of bupivacaine and diamorphine.
Three solutions administered by continuous extradural infusion for postoperative analgesia were compared in a randomized, double-blind manner. All patients underwent major abdominal gynaecological surgery and received 0.125% bupivacaine in 0.9% saline, diamorphine in 0.9% saline (0.5 mg in 15 ml) or diamorphine mixed with 0.125% bupivacaine (0.5 mg in 15 ml), at a rate of 15 ml h-1. The bupivac...
متن کامل[Postoperative analgesia: comparing continuous epidural catheter infusion of local anesthetic and opioid and continuous wound catheter infusion of local anesthetic].
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Continuous wound infusion has been investigated as a method of postoperative pain control and its efficacy has been demonstrated when compared to saline infusion. The objective of this study was to compare the quality of postoperative analgesia, the use of opioids as rescue analgesia, patient satisfaction, and the incidence of complications between epidural catheter in...
