Drug concentrations in post-mortem femoral blood compared with therapeutic concentrations in plasma
Therapeutic drug concentrations measured in plasma are of limited value as reference intervals for interpretation in post-mortem (PM) toxicology. In this study, drug concentration distributions were studied in PM femoral venous blood from 57 903 Finnish autopsy cases representing all causes of death during an 11-year period. Cause-of-death information was obtained from death certificates issued...
متن کاملPostmortem femoral blood concentrations of risperidone.
Postmortem femoral blood concentrations of the antipsychotic drug risperidone and the active metabolite 9-hydroxyrisperidone were determined by an achiral LC-MS/MS method in 38 cases. The cause of death was classified as unrelated to risperidone in 30 cases, in which the sum of the concentration of the drug and metabolite ranged from below the limit of quantification to 0.058 mg/kg (median 0.00...
متن کاملPostmortem femoral blood reference concentrations of aripiprazole, chlorprothixene, and quetiapine.
Postmortem femoral blood concentrations of the antipsychotic drugs aripiprazole, chlorprothixene and its metabolite, and quetiapine were determined by LC-MS-MS in 25 cases for aripiprazole and 60 cases each for chlorprothixene and quetiapine. For cases where the cause of death was not related to the considered drugs, the following blood concentration intervals (10-90 percentiles) were observed:...
متن کاملTherapeutic Plasma Concentrations
The electrocardiographic effects of imipramine hydrochloride at therapeutic plasma concentrations were determined in 44 depressed patients during a 6-week clinical outcome study of depression. During each week of the protocol, i.e., 2 weeks of control and 4 weeks of drug treatment, a standard 12-lead ECG, high-speed, high-fidelity ECG tracings, and a 24-hour continuous ECG recording were obtain...
متن کاملSome worlds about postmortem blood atropine concentrations
Atropine is an anticholinergic drug, used in treatment of spasm and pain. Postmortem blood atropine concentrations tend to be regionally dependent. We reported in this work the analytical findings of atropine in the peripheral and heart blood from a case of suspected death. Atropine was determined in both peripheral and heart blood by liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry. Towards...
