Increasing of intrathecal CSF excitatory amino acids concentration following morphine challenge in morphine-tolerant rats.
Excitatory amino acids (EAAs) are involved in the development of opioid tolerance. The present study reveals that an increasing of CSF EAAs concentration might be responsible for the losing of morphine's antinociceptive effect in morphine tolerant rats. Male Wistar rats were implanted with two intrathecal (i.t.) catheters and one microdialysis probe, then continuously infused i.t. for 5 days wi...
متن کاملIntrathecal morphine and inflammatory masses.
To the Editor:—I read with interest the reports by Yaksh et al. and Gradert et al. in the July 2003 issue of ANESTHESIOLOGY describing the association of intrathecal analgesia with catheter-associated masses and the accompanying editorial by Follett. Both articles describe a clear doseand/or concentration-dependent relation between commercially prepared preservative-free morphine sulfate and th...

متن کاملDriving and intrathecal morphine administration.
Since Belgian law recently set a limit to morphine concentration detectable in blood and urine while driving a vehicle, questions arose about the implications for the medical use of opiates. We determined morphine concentrations in whole blood and urine by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry in 15 patients on continuous intrathecal morphine administration. Effects on blood and urine concentrat...
متن کاملProphylactic mirtazapine reduces intrathecal morphine-induced pruritus.
BACKGROUND Activation of the serotonergic system is an important factor in the pathogenesis of intrathecal morphine-induced pruritus. Mirtazapine is a new antidepressant that selectively blocks 5-HT(2) and 5-HT(3) receptors. We therefore tested the hypothesis that preoperative mirtazapine would reduce the incidence of intrathecal morphine-induced pruritus. METHODS One hundred and ten ASA I pa...
