The Effects of Propofol and Thiopental Continuous Infusion on Serum Potassium Disturbances in Neurosurgical Patients
OBJECTIVE The potassium disturbance associated with thiopental continuous infusion in neurosurgical patients is well known. However, the effect of propofol continuous infusion on serum potassium levels has not been investigated extensively. METHODS We reviewed the medical records of 60 consecutive patients who received coma therapy or deep sedation for intracranial pressure control using eith...
متن کاملSerum potassium and arrhythmias.
Alterations in serum potassium levels are a common occurrence in clinical practice and entail a significant proarrhythmic risk. The present review is a short tutorial meant to assist clinicians in the pathophysiological interpretation of arrhythmias caused by dyskalaemia.
متن کاملElectroconvulsive therapy and serum potassium.
In 54 patients presenting for electroconvulsive therapy, the concentration of serum potassium was measured before and after the induced convulsion modified with a standard anaesthetic technique of methohexitone and suxamethonium. It was found that there was a statistically significant rise in serum potassium, but that the duration of convulsion had no significant effect on that rise in serum po...
متن کاملSerum Potassium and the Electrocardiogram
THE purpose of this study is to correlate changes observed in the electrocardiogram with varying concentrations of serum potassium in commonly encountered clinical conditions. There has been much discussion and some disagreement in the literature concerning electrocardiographic criteria for hypokalemia. Many studies have dealt with the combination of 2 decidedly different aspects of hypokalemic...
متن کاملIntravenous anesthetic propofol inhibits multiple human cardiac potassium channels.
BACKGROUND Propofol is widely used clinically for the induction and maintenance of anesthesia. Clinical case reports have shown that propofol has an antiatrial tachycardia/fibrillation effect; however, the related ionic mechanisms are not fully understood. The current study investigates the effects of propofol on human cardiac potassium channels. METHODS The whole cell patch voltage clamp tec...
