A within-subject comparison of seizure duration with etomidate and methohexital in electroconvulsive therapy

, 2013
Objective: To determine whether etomidate is associated with longer seizures than methohexital in ECT anesthesia. Methods: Retrospective chart review in 39 patients who were switched from one anesthetic to the other.

Simultaneous determination of blood concentrations of methohexital and its hydroxy metabolite by gas chromatography and identification of 4'-hydroxymethohexital by combined gas--liquid chromatography--mass spectrometry

, 1981
A simple, sensitive and selective method is described for the simultaneous determination of low concentrations (less than 50 ng/ml) of underivatized methohexital and its hydroxy metabolite in small (0.1 ml) samples of human and rat plasma or whole blood ...

Effekte von Methohexital auf extrazelluläre Aminosäure- Konzentrationen in Hippocampus-Schnitten von Ratten unter ischämischen Bedingungen

, 2008
Das Gehirn des Menschen kann nur kurze Zeit ohne eine ausreichende Sauerstoffversorgung überstehen. Ein Weg zur Protektion des Gehirns ist der Einsatz von Medikamenten, die die Ischämietoleranz der Nervenzellen erhöhen sollen.

Value of Oxygen with Innovar and Methohexital for Outpatient Oral Surgery [PDF]

, 1972
This paper demonstrates the value of oxygen in maintaining arterial blood gas in an adequate range during outpatient oral surgery. Dental extractions were completed on ten patients under an anesthetic technique utilizing Innovar and methohexital with ...

Experimental Brain Ischemia: Protection From Irreversible Damage With a Rapid-Acting Barbiturate (Methohexital)

, 1972
Experimental brain ischemia was produced in rabbits by coupling systemic hypotension and hypoxia. The animals were paralyzed with succinylcholine and ventilated mechanically.

Safety and efficiency of procedural sedation and analgesia (PSA) conducted by medical officers in a level one hospital in Cape Town [PDF]

, 2011
Objectives: This study aimed to research efficacy and safety of procedural sedation and analgesia (PSA) administered by medical officers (MOs), without formal anaesthetic training, in a South African district hospital.

Possibilities and limitations of magnetic source imaging of methohexital-induced epileptiform patterns in temporal lobe epilepsy patients

, 1997
The usefulness of MEG-based techniques in lateralizing and localizing the epileptogenic area was investigated in the present study. Spontaneous and methohexital-induced spikes were studied in a group of 15 patients with temporomesial epilepsy using a 37 ...

Acute detoxification of opioid-addicted patients with naloxone during propofol or methohexital anesthesia: a comparison of withdrawal symptoms, neuroendocrine, metabolic, and cardiovascular patterns

, 2000
OBJECTIVE: Mu-Opioid receptor blockade during general anesthesia is a new treatment for detoxification of opioid addicted patients. We assessed catecholamine plasma concentrations, oxygen consumption, cardiovascular variables, and withdrawal symptoms ...

Methohexital-Induced Changes in Spectral Power of Neuromagnetic Signals : Beta Augmentation is Smaller Over the Hemisphere Containing the Epileptogenic Focus

, 1997
Previous research has suggested that methohexital, a short-term barbiturate, alters activity in the primary epileptogenic area. It can be assumed that drug-induced activation of the epileptogenic focus provides a rapid and safe method to obtain a ...

Therapeutic window of CA1 neuronal damage defined by an ultrashort-acting barbiturate after brain ischemia in gerbils.

, 1990
Previous therapeutic studies on the prevention of selective vulnerability of neurons in the hippocampus have suggested that the critical period for induction of delayed neuronal injury occurs early during recirculation.
