Comparison of the influence of low dose etomidate and propofol as priming dose on the incidence of etomidate induced myoclonus: a randomised, double-blind clinical trial

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Anesthesiology, 2022
Background: Though hemodynamically stable, etomidate is known for its myoclonus side effect following induction. The main aim of this study is an effective attempt to decrease the incidence of myoclonus with a priming agent.

Nonhypnotic low-dose etomidate for rapid correction of hypercortisolaemia in cushing's syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
We determined the adrenostatic potential of low-dose nonhypnotic etomidate in six patients with Cushing's syndrome (ectopic Cushing's syndrome,n=2; Cushing's disease,n=3; bilateral adrenal adenoma,n=1). Etomidate was given as a continuous infusion for 32

Effect of Etomidate vs Propofol for Total Intravenous Anesthesia on Major Postoperative Complications in Older Patients

open access: yesJAMA Surgery, 2022
This randomized clinical trial compares the in-hospital morbidity, clinical outcomes, and mortality associated with use of etomidate vs propofol during abdominal surgery in older patients in China.

The Efficacy and Safety of Remimazolam Tosilate versus Etomidate-Propofol in Elderly Outpatients Undergoing Colonoscopy: A Prospective, Randomized, Single-Blind, Non-Inferiority Trial

open access: yesDrug Design, Development and Therapy, 2021
Objective The optimal sedation regime during endoscopy remains controversial, especially for elderly outpatients. In this study, we compared the efficacy and safety between remimazolam tosilate (RT) and etomidate-propofol (EP) in elderly outpatients ...

GABAergic compensation in connexin36 knock-out mice evident during low-magnesium seizure-like event activity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Gap junctions within the cerebral cortex may facilitate cortical seizure formation by their ability to synchronize electrical activity. To investigate this, one option is to compare wild-type (WT) animals with those lacking the gene for connexin36 (Cx36 ...

Effect of vitamin C on adrenal suppression following etomidate for rapid sequence induction in trauma patients: a randomized clinical trial

open access: yesBMC Anesthesiology, 2023
Background Etomidate is an imidazole derivative that is widely used in the emergency department for Rapid Sequence Intubation (RSI). Although it has a safe hemodynamic profile, there are some concerns about its suppressant effects on the adreno-cortical ...

High-throughput screening in larval zebrafish identifies novel potent sedative-hypnotics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BACKGROUND: Many general anesthetics were discovered empirically, but primary screens to find new sedative-hypnotics in drug libraries have not used animals, limiting the types of drugs discovered.

Ketamine is not associated with more post-intubation hypotension than etomidate in patients undergoing endotracheal intubation.

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2022
INTRODUCTION Emergency department (ED) patients undergoing emergent tracheal intubation often have multiple physiologic derangements putting them at risk for post-intubation hypotension.

The effects of etomidate on expression of high mobility group box 1 via the nuclear factor kappa B pathway in rat model of sepsis

open access: yesLibyan Journal of Medicine, 2023
Etomidate is an anesthetic agent used in hemodynamically unstable patients, but its use has been controversial in septic patients. The response of high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), a late-phase lethal cytokine in sepsis, to etomidate has not been ...

The general anaesthetic etomidate inhibits the excitability of mouse thalamocortical relay neurons by modulating multiple modes of GABAA receptor-mediated inhibition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Modulation of thalamocortical (TC) relay neuron function has been implicated in the sedative and hypnotic effects of general anaesthetics. Inhibition of TC neurons is mediated predominantly by a combination of phasic and tonic inhibition, together with a
