Rocuronium Vs Cisatracurium
Rocuronium versus Cisatracurium as Adjuvants to Local Anesthetic in Peribulbar Induced Akinesia Abstract:

Background and Objectives: Peribulbar anesthesia is widely used in cataract surgeries; but, the onset of akinesia is way behind and slower in comparison to that for the retrobulbar technique. The effect of using adjuvant to the peribulbar block in developing ameliorated conditions in absence of any adverse effects, and in accelerating the onset of akinesia have been implicated. We investigate the effect of using rocuronium, cisatracourium and hyaluronidase as adjuvant agents to the local anesthetic substance on peribulbar induced akinesia as regards the degree of akinesia. …show more content…
(group A) and a mixture (8 ml) containing equal parts of Marcaine 0.5%, lidocaine 2% plus 0.5 ml rocuronium 5 mg (group R). Lid akinesia, globe akinesia, hemodynamics and side effects were evaluated between

    Sugammadex Reversal of Profound Vecuronium Block

    The purpose of this specific study is to compare the neuromuscular block reversal rates and effects for sugammadex, a selective relaxant binding agent, with neostigmine. In many types of surgery, there appears to be a benefit for the patient to be kept in a state of profound relaxation throughout the entire procedure. Anesthesiologists are usually hindered in this goal through the surgery in its entirety because of the inability of standard agents to rapidly reverse such profound neuromuscular block. This forces anesthesiologists to restrict the level of neuromuscular block near the end of surgery (Lemmens, El-Orbany, Berry & Martin, 2010). Since sugammadex has the potential to decrease the time necessary to reduce neuromuscular block, there is an opportunity for it to aid anesthesiologists by allowing them to extend the duration of the profound relaxation later into a procedure.…

    Meta-Detect Summary

    Eighty parturients were randomly placed into four groups, with group 1 to receive normal saline 10 milliliters and groups 2, 3 and 4 to receive granisetron, ondansetron, and ephedrine, respectively. The medications were diluted in normal saline to total 10 milliliters and injected prior to spinal anesthesia. The trial showed that prophylactic administration of the three studied drugs decreased spinal-induced hypotension, nausea, and the amount of vasopressors needed. Granisetron was the only drug shown to improve recovery time of the sensory…

    Uses of Lidocaine

    Hello, my name is La Saundra and I am a Registered Nurse. I am here to speak with you ladies about things to expect as a nurse. I hear that some of you would like to be a nurse practitioner or nurse anesthetists. Both are great ideas and wonderful career choices. Today we will discuss a few topics; pain, nerve response, drug of choice to aid the pain and what action and reaction to expect. We will talk about Lidocaine it’s a topical gel. Topical means you apply it on the skin or the epidermis. Epidermis is the medical term for skin and dermis the layer that underlying the epidermis. These are the first and second layers of skin. Your reaction to pain is located in these layers of skin cause are nerve receptors are located in the epidermis and dermis of the skin. It’s like when we get cold we get goose bumps our nerve sensors tell the brain we are cold which causes a reaction to occur. How many have had a migraine, back pain, or even muscle spasm. A muscle spasm is a nerve action, which cause the nerve to jump. Your eyelid for instant may feel like it’s jumping without you causing it to move. However, we can use the topical gel Lidocaine to aid in reducing pain. When making a decision about the choice of medicine you administer, you want to be sure the patient isn’t allergic to any medication especially the medication of your choice. Sometimes a patient may not know they are allergic to medicine, they’ll begin to show signs of irritation redness, swelling, rash, hives and even tightness of the chest. When we use Lidocaine we are looking to stop pain from being recognized through our nerve sensors. Lidocaine penetrates the epidermis an dermis…

    Post Surgical Pain Case Study

    Adjuvants are recommended with patient required opioid dosing. The rationale is to reduce side effects associated with opioid use (White, 2005). Some of the most common side effects associated with opioid dosing are 2) inability to carry normal daily activity 2) risk of respiratory depression 3) post operative nausea and vomiting 4) opioid induce hyperalgesia (Mercadante, 2003). The studies have shown that opoid causes hyperalgesia by activating both NMDA and cyclooxygenase nociceptive system (larcher, 1998; Dunbar, 2006).…

    Vicodin

    Vicodin is prescription medication that is used to treat moderate to severe pain in adults. The two main ingredients in Vicodin are Hydrocodone bitartrate and acetaminophen. Hydrocodone is considered to be a pain reliever that acts similarly to codine and is effective at decreasing the pain as well as relieving cough, however its can also cause drowsiness, mood changes, and metal “clouding”. Because of this reason the it can only be used when combined with another drug and not alone, as far as in the United States. Therefore its combined with acetaminophen, which is also a pain reliever along with a fever reducer. The combination of these two drugs helps improve acetaminophen’s effectiveness at relieving pain as well as limiting the potential abuse of Hydrocodone. The maximum dose of Vicodin is usually controlled by the amount of acetaminophen that it contains.…

    Lignocaine: A Local Anaesthesia In The Human Body

    2 Local anaesthesia is used to numb a specific part of the human body to prevent the sensation of pain whilst undergoing any procedure e.g. removal of the appendix. Lignocaine is a local anaesthetic that is most commonly used due to its effectiveness in the human body. It is free of toxicants and works rapidly in the body to prevent the sensation of pain. The way in which lignocaine works is by reversibly blocking nerves that transmit any sensation of pain from the moment a response is sent from the brain. It does this by stopping the sodium entering the nerve ending at the site of the pain. Further, the way in which lignocaine is designed is so that it does not distribute widely around the body. Therefore, it only applies to the particular…

    Effects of selected Drugs

    During anesthesia, there is a great amount of drugs used to suppress the pain that would occur to the body. There are some common drugs that are used. Alcohol, Aspirin, Lidocaine, Morphine, and Succinylcholine are all used during anesthesia. Each is used to interrupt the pain signals during surgeries. Without these medications, the body would not be able to withstand such trauma occurring to perform the procedure fully.…

    Nurse Anesthesia Practice

    Standard one of the American Association of Nurse Anesthesia Standards for Nurse Anesthesia Practice maintains that an in-depth preanesthesia assessment and evaluation is completed and documented. The goal is to provide optimal care and administer anesthetics in a style that decreases morbidity and mortality. Further diagnostic tests, labs, and preoperative consultations are appropriate based off of information gathered from reviewing a patient’s health history and thorough physical examination. Findings during the preoperative evaluation help steer care in order to allow for a safe provision of anesthesia. Although all patients must have a preoperative evaluation, it is important to recognize the special considerations the older adult requires…

    The Effects of Certain Drugs

    Lidocaine is a local anesthetic commonly used in medical procedures. Lidocaine is also an antiarrhythmic agent, one that prevents or treats certain cardiac arrhythmias. Lidocaine works by preventing activity of the nerve or heart cell membrane. By blocking the entry of sodium ions the cell is unable to carry messages from cell to cell. Lidocaine is commonly used as a topical and local anesthetic. The drug must be injected in the proximity of the wound or surgery. Excessive quantities of lidocaine mainly result in central nervous system and cardiovascular effects-CNS effect usually occurs at lower blood plasma concentrations. CNS effects may include CNS excitation (nervousness, tingling around the mouth, tinnitus, tremor, dizziness, blurred vision, and seizures) followed by depression, and with increasingly heavier exposure: drowsiness, loss of consciousness, respiratory depression and apnea).…

    Ergotamine And Ergotamine

    Ergot alkaloids remained specific drugs of choice for the acute treatment of migraine for number of decades. Although these drugs are widely used, but their efficacy has been poorly demonstrated [41,42]. This is due to methodological flaws in the clinical trials, which, since 1991 have been improved and are now standardized by the IHS (International Headache Society Committee on Clinical Trials in Migraine, 1991). Ergotamine and dihydroergotamine are vasoconstrictors and they also inhibit the neurogenic plasma extravasation in the rat [43]. Ergotamine and dihydroergotamine display affinity for a large number of receptors, which include α-adrenoceptors, dopamine receptors and 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, 5-HT1D, 5-HT1F and 5-HT2 receptors. This wide affinity…
