  • Product Monograph Vecuronium Bromide For
    PRODUCT MONOGRAPH PrVECURONIUM BROMIDE FOR INJECTION Non-depolarizing Skeletal Neuromuscular Blocking Agent Pharmaceutical Partners of Canada Inc. Date of Preparation: 45 Vogell Road, Suite 200 January 15, 2008 Richmond Hill, ON L4B 3P6 Control No.: 119276 PRODUCT MONOGRAPH PrVECURONIUM BROMIDE FOR INJECTION Non-depolarizing Skeletal Neuromuscular Blocking Agent THIS DRUG SHOULD BE ADMINISTERED ONLY BY ADEQUATELY TRAINED INDIVIDUALS FAMILIAR WITH ITS ACTIONS, CHARACTERISTICS AND HAZARDS ACTIONS AND CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY Vecuronium Bromide for Injection is a non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent of intermediate duration possessing all of the characteristic pharmacological actions of this class of drugs (curariform). It acts by competing for cholinergic receptors at the motor end-plate. The antagonism to acetylcholine is inhibited and neuromuscular block reversed by acetylcholinesterase inhibitors such as neostigmine. Vecuronium Bromide for Injection is about 1/3 more potent than pancuronium; the duration of neuromuscular blockade produced by Vecuronium Bromide for Injection is shorter than that of pancuronium at initially equipotent doses. The time to onset of paralysis decreases and the duration of maximum effect increases with increasing Vecuronium Bromide for Injection doses. The use of a peripheral nerve stimulator is of benefit in assessing the degree of muscular relaxation. The ED90 (dose required to produce 90% suppression of the muscle twitch response with balanced anesthesia) has averaged 0.057 mg/kg (0.049 to 0.062 mg/kg in various studies). An initial Vecuronium Bromide for Injection dose of 0.08 to 0.10 mg/kg generally produces first depression of twitch in approximately 1 minute, good or excellent intubation conditions within 2.5 to 3 minutes, and maximum neuromuscular blockade within 3 to 5 minutes of injection in Vecuronium Bromide for Injection, Product Monograph Page 2 of 28 most patients.

  • Doxacurium Chloride Injection Abbott Laboratories
    NUROMAX - doxacurium chloride injection Abbott Laboratories ---------- NUROMAX® (doxacurium chloride) Injection This drug should be administered only by adequately trained individuals familiar with its actions, characteristics, and hazards. NOT FOR USE IN NEONATES CONTAINS BENZYL ALCOHOL DESCRIPTION NUROMAX (doxacurium chloride) is a long-acting, nondepolarizing skeletal muscle relaxant for intravenous administration. Doxacurium chloride is [1α,2β(1'S*,2'R*)]-2,2' -[(1,4-dioxo-1,4- butanediyl)bis(oxy-3,1-propanediyl)]bis[1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6,7,8-trimethoxy-2- methyl-1-[(3,4,5- trimethoxyphenyl)methyl]isoquinolinium] dichloride (meso form). The molecular formula is C56H78CI2N2O16 and the molecular weight is 1106.14. The compound does not partition into the 1- octanol phase of a distilled water/ 1-octanol system, i.e., the n-octanol:water partition coefficient is 0. Doxacurium chloride is a mixture of three trans, trans stereoisomers, a dl pair [(1R,1'R ,2S,2'S ) and (1S,1'S ,2R,2'R )] and a meso form (1R,1'S,2S,2'R). The meso form is illustrated below: NUROMAX Injection is a sterile, nonpyrogenic aqueous solution (pH 3.9 to 5.0) containing doxacurium chloride equivalent to 1 mg/mL doxacurium in Water for Injection. Hydrochloric acid may have been added to adjust pH. NUROMAX Injection contains 0.9% w/v benzyl alcohol. Reference ID: 2867706 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY NUROMAX binds competitively to cholinergic receptors on the motor end-plate to antagonize the action of acetylcholine, resulting in a block of neuromuscular transmission. This action is antagonized by acetylcholinesterase inhibitors, such as neostigmine. Pharmacodynamics NUROMAX is approximately 2.5 to 3 times more potent than pancuronium and 10 to 12 times more potent than metocurine.

  • Atracurium Besylate Injection
    PRODUCT MONOGRAPH PrATRACURIUM BESYLATE INJECTION 10 mg/mL Skeletal Neuromuscular Blocking Agent Sandoz Canada Inc. Date of Revision: March 25, 2013 145 Jules-Léger Boucherville, QC, Canada J4B 7K8 Control no.: 161881 Atracurium Besylate Injection Page 1 of 19 PrATRACURIUM BESYLATE INJECTION 10 mg/mL THERAPEUTIC CLASSIFICATION Skeletal Neuromuscular Blocking Agent ACTIONS AND CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY Atracurium besylate is a nondepolarizing, intermediate-duration, skeletal neuromuscular blocking agent. Nondepolarizing agents antagonize the neurotransmitter action of acetylcholine by binding competitively to cholinergic receptor sites on the motor end-plate. This antagonism is inhibited, and neuromuscular block reversed, by acetylcholinesterase inhibitors such as neostigmine, edrophonium and pyridostigmine. The duration of neuromuscular blockade produced by atracurium besylate is approximately one-third to one-half the duration seen with d-tubocurarine, metocurine and pancuronium at equipotent doses. As with other nondepolarizing neuromuscular blockers, the time to onset of paralysis decreases and the duration of maximum effect increases with increasing atracurium besylate doses. The pharmacokinetics of atracurium besylate in man are essentially linear within the 0.3 to 0.6 mg/kg dose range. The elimination half-life is approximately 20 minutes. The duration of neuromuscular blockade does not correlate with plasma pseudocholinesterase levels and is not altered by the absence of renal function. INDICATIONS AND CLINICAL USE Atracurium Besylate Injection is indicated, as an adjunct to general anaesthesia, to facilitate endotracheal intubation and to provide skeletal muscle relaxation during surgery or mechanical ventilation. It can be used most advantageously if muscle twitch response to peripheral nerve stimulation is monitored. CONTRAINDICATIONS Atracurium besylate is contraindicated in patients known to have a hypersensitivity to it.

  • Overall Educational Goal of Elective the Goal of This Rotation Is to Enable
    Overall Educational Goal of Elective The goal of this rotation is to enable students to better understand the risks and hazards of anesthesia, so that they can learn to safely prepare a patient physically and emotionally for the operating room. Students will also become familiar with problems specific to anesthesia, so that they will be able to consult with the anesthesiologist regarding medical problems that may affect the patient’s response to anesthesia and surgery. In the process, students will learn what it means for a patient to be in the most optimal condition before proceeding to the operating room. Objectives • To give students an appreciation of the field of Anesthesiology • To teach techniques of preoperative evaluation and the implications of concurrent medical conditions in the intraoperative period • To teach the characteristics of commonly used anesthetic agents and techniques and their risks and complications • To acquaint students with the principles and skills involved in airway management, intravenous line insertion, and the use of invasive and non-invasive monitoring Brief Description of Activities Students will participate in the induction of anesthesia and the maintenance of an airway by both mask and intubation; intraoperative management including the use of various anesthetic agents; various regional anesthetic techniques; pain management for acute and chronic conditions; the anesthetic management of the obstetrical, cardiac and pediatric patient; and anesthetic goals in an ambulatory setting. Methods of Student Evaluation Students will be assigned to an anesthesia attending and resident who will be responsible for evaluating their progress. Evaluation will be done by observing the students involvement in the intraoperative management of the patients that they are following and their ability to handle simple anesthetic techniques.
