Pentobarbital Sodium Coma for Refractory Intracranial Hypertension

Journal of Neuroscience Nursing, 2003
Refractory intracranial hypertension (RICH) is defined as intracranial pressures that exceed 25 mm Hg for 30 minutes, 30 mm Hg for 15 minutes, or 40 mm Hg for 1 minute. RICH occurs in approximately 15% of patients with traumatic brain injury. If it is not aggressively treated, RICH can result in cerebral herniation and death.

Inhibition of monoamine oxidase by sodium pentobarbital

Canadian Journal of Biochemistry, 1970
A single intraperitoneal injection of 30, 60, or 90 mg/kg of sodium pentobarbital into male rats produced an appreciable inhibition of monoamine oxidase activity of liver and heart. The brain and kidney activities were practically unaffected. Chronic administration of pentobarbital, 30 mg/kg daily for 20 days, did, however, produce an inhibition of ...

Anesthesia in rabbits by intrahepatic sodium pentobarbital

Journal of Surgical Research, 1975
Abstract A reliable method for anesthesia of laboratory rabbits by intrahepatic injection of sodium pentobarbital was developed. Anatomical dissection was the basis for designation of external landmarks for injection. The advantages of the method have been simplicity, accuracy of dosage based on body weight, and an induction speed great enough for ...

Sodium Pentobarbital-Induced Mutations in the Hamster

Archives of Environmental Health: An International Journal, 1981
When virgin Syrian hamsters aged 6 to 8 wk were mated during estrus and anesthetized with sodium pentobarbital (Nembutal) 4 to 5 hr before estimated ovulation, pregnancy wastage in the newly conceived litter was observed. This was manifested by polyspermy of moribund eggs and death of fertilized eggs, deficits of expected zygotes, and triploidy and ...

Prolonged Vertical Nystagmus After Pentobarbital Sodium Administration

American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1975
Of 17 healthy adults without nystagmus who ingested 100 mg of pentobarbital sodium, six had up-beating, gaze-evoked vertical nystagmus 12 hours later. Three of them had nystgmus 36 hours later, but none of them had it 60 hours later. Therefore, one should be reluctant to ascribe this type of nystagmus to a disease of the central nervous system in ...

Pentobarbital sodium anesthesia in the dog

American Journal of Physiology-Legacy Content, 1965
Studies have been done in the dog to determine some of the circulatory effects of anesthetic amounts of pentobarbital sodium. The results indicate that a) except for the initial transient hypotension that occurs on injection of the anesthetic, pentobarbital sodium has little influence on the mean arterial blood pressure of the normotensive dog; b ...

Fate of sodium pentobarbital in rendered products

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 1985
SUMMARY The fate of pentobarbital through rendering was evaluated by following a group of euthanatized animals through a commercial rendering facility. Samples of material were collected at various points in the rendering process, and assays for pentobarbital were conducted by an ultraviolet spectrophotometric method.

Hemodynamic effects of sodium pentobarbital in the bovine

Journal of Surgical Research, 1972
Abstract The effects of intravenous sodium pentobarbital (SP) were studied in 34 normal and in 7 calves with brisket disease (BD). Average increase in pulmonary artery pressure was 12 mm Hg for normal calves with no significant change in BD calves. Average increase in femoral artery pressure after a transient decrease was 24 mm Hg in normal calves ...

Effects of sodium pentobarbital on complex operant discriminations

Psychopharmacologia, 1964
Results are reported for the effects of sodium pentobarbital on (a) zero delay matching-to-sample, (b) simultaneous oddity, and (c) variable delay matching-to-sample. In all these situations there are decrements in accuracy with increasing dose levels.

Cardiovascular Effects of Anesthetic Doses of Pentobarbital Sodium

American Journal of Physiology-Legacy Content, 1956
The effects of continuous pentobarbital anesthesia on certain features of the cardiovascular system were investigated in trained male dogs. Similar results were obtained in 10 animals using the pressure-pulse contour method and in 5 animals by the dye dilution technique.
