چکیده

The interaction of the steroid anaesthetic agent CT1341 with selected muscle relaxants and volatile agents has been investigated in man. In four patients the effect at the neuromuscular junction was examined. No effect was seen with CT1341 alone and there was no clinically significant interaction with tubocurarine, pancuronium or suxamethonium. A further forty patients in six groups were anaesthetized using CT1341 and either pancuronium or tubocurarine with controlled respiration. One of the volatile agents, halothane, trichloroethylene or methoxyflurane, was then administered and the resulting effect on electrocardiogram, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, pulse rate and nasopharyngeal temperature noted. Three patients given methoxyflurane developed a marked sinus tachycardia which could be evidence of drug interaction. No other effect was observed.

Clinical studies of induction agents. XXXIX: CT1341, a new steroid anaesthetic.

CT1341 is a new intravenous anaesthetic which appears to have overcome the disadvantages of the earlier steroid. The formulation is a mixture of two closely related steroids with Cremophor EL and the optimum dose for induction is 50-60 (J/kg though much larger doses can be given without serious side effects. As the dose is increased the incidence of muscle movements, respiratory depression and ...

Efficacy of clove oil, benzocaine, eugenol, 2-phenoxyethanol as anaesthetics on shabbout fish (Barbus grypus Heckel, 1843)

To our knowledge, no previous anaesthetic experiments are conducted on shabbout fish. The results from the present study indicated that the induction times decreased significantly as the doses increased in all the anaesthetics (p<0.05). Induction and recovery times were significantly affected by the interaction between concentration and anaesthetic (p<0.05). The effective doses were: 25 and 50 ...

Histamine release after intravenous application of short-acting hypnotics. A comparison of etomidate, Althesin (CT1341) and propanidid.

The subject of histamine release was investigated in 16 volunteers by means of plasma histamine determination after the administration of etomidate, Althesin, propanidid, and Cremophor EL. Althesin and propanidid caused release of histamine in various degrees of frequency. Blood pressure changes were rather pronounced with both anaesthetic agents; tachycardia reached its mavimiim in the first a...

Central mechanisms of vomiting related to catecholamine response: anaesthetic implication.

VOMITING IN ASSOCIATION with anaesthesia continues to be a major problem. A vomiting centre 1 and a chemoreceptor trigger zone 2 have been identified, but their relationship to the mechanism of anaesthetic-induced vomiting remains to be clarified. ~-~ An adrenergie mechanism is suggested by the observations that some general anaesthetic agents increase circulating catecholamine levels, for exam...

A NEW BIOLOGICAL SCREENING SYSTEM FOR LOCAL ANAESTHETICS BY INHIBITION MOBILITY OF TETRAHYMENA PYRIFORMIS

An alternative in vitro approach to drug screening has been the use of human cell cultures for antiviral agents and microbial cell cultures for the assessment of the carcinogenic potential of selected compounds. A number of protozoan species have been also used as drug screens for anti-protozoal agents. The ciliated protozoan Tetrahymena pyriformis species has been widely utilised as a dru...
