Effects of Etomidate on the Steroidogenesis of Rat Immature Leydig Cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Etomidate is a rapid hypnotic intravenous anesthetic agent. The major side effect of etomidate is the reduced plasma concentration of corticosteroids, leading to the abnormal reaction of adrenals.

Comparison of Pain on Injection of Etomidate versus Etomidate-Lipuro in Patients Undergoing Elective Orthopedic Surgery: A Double-Blind Randomized Clinical Trial

open access: yesJournal of Orthopedic and Spine Trauma, 2021
Background: Etomidate is an efficient general anesthetic associated with injection pain. Etomidate-Lipuro is its lipid emulsion, suggested to have less adverse effects. We aim to compare the injection pain of etomidate vs.

Behavioral and steroidogenic pharmacology of phenyl ring substituted etomidate analogs in rats

open access: yesBMC Pharmacology and Toxicology, 2019
Background Cushing’s syndrome is an endocrine disorder characterized by the overproduction of adrenocortical steroids. Steroidogenesis enzyme inhibitors are the mainstays of pharmacological treatment. Unfortunately, they produce significant side effects.

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 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 ...

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 ...

Histamine release after injection of benzodiazepines and of etomidate. A problem associated with the solvent propylene glycol (= Libération d'histamine après injection de benzodiazépines et d'étomidate. Rôle du solvant propylène-glycol) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Many drugs, especially when given in rapid sequence can cause histamine release. Ten healthy volunteers were premedicated with diazepam 10 mg.70 kg-1 i.v. and lormetazepam 1 mg.70 kg-1 i.v., respectively, 30 min prior to etomidate 0.15 mg.kg-1 i.v.

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
