With direct absorption and deposition at the lung level, avoiding side effects and presenting fast response time. Several factors infl uence the drug action, such as size, particle movement, ventilatory fl ow, pulmonary expansion, anatomy, respiratory mechanics and the nebulizer and patient interface. The therapeutic optimization depends on the type of nebulizer differentiating itself by the physical principle that generates the mist. Objectives: Check advantages and disadvantages of different inhalation devices. Methodology. This is a review of the PubMed database using descriptors: ultrasonic and jet nebulizer, aerosol deposition in the lung, metered dose inhaler and dry, inhaler therapy. Results: Different devices are mentioned in the literature: pneumatic and ultrasonic nebulizers (administering solutions), metered pressurized inhalers - pMDI used with or without expander chamber (administering suspensions) and dry powder inhalers - DPI (administering powder). Discussion and Conclusion: The US has advantages: quiet, does not require coordinating abilities, without propellant gases and quick nebulization with small amount of solution. Disadvantages: change in the active principle of thermosensitive drugs, deposition in the oropharynx and VAI of 2% of inhaled particles.

    To help make the use of prescription drugs safer and more affordable, our plan is now using a Drug Quantity Management program. That is, for certain medications, you can receive an amount to last you a certain number of days. This gives you the right amount to take the daily dose considered safe and effective, according to the recommendations of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Based on the FDA’s guidelines and other medical information, our plan developed this program together with Express Scripts, the company chosen to manage our prescription drug benefit. The following limits are based on a 30-day supply. If your plan allows for additional days supply, your limits may be higher. For instance, you may be able to get a 90-day supply of your medication through mail order service. Your doctor could also request a prior authorization. If this request is approved, a prior authorization would let you receive more than the recommended quantity.

    St John’s Institute of Dermatology Topical steroids This leaflet explains more about topical steroids and how they are used to treat a variety of skin conditions. If you have any questions or concerns, please speak to a doctor or nurse caring for you. What are topical corticosteroids and how do they work? Topical corticosteroids are steroids that are applied onto the skin and are used to treat a variety of skin conditions. The type of steroid found in these medicines is similar to those produced naturally in the body and they work by reducing inflammation within the skin, making it less red and itchy. What are the different strengths of topical corticosteroids? Topical steroids come in a number of different strengths. It is therefore very important that you follow the advice of your doctor or specialist nurse and apply the correct strength of steroid to a given area of the body. The strengths of the most commonly prescribed topical steroids in the UK are listed in the table below. Table 1 - strengths of commonly prescribed topical steroids Strength Chemical name Common trade names Mild Hydrocortisone 0.5%, 1.0%, 2.5% Hydrocortisone Dioderm®, Efcortelan®, Mildison® Moderate Betamethasone valerate 0.025% Betnovate-RD® Clobetasone butyrate 0.05% Eumovate®, Clobavate® Fluocinolone acetonide 0.001% Synalar 1 in 4 dilution® Fluocortolone 0.25% Ultralanum Plain® Fludroxycortide 0.0125% Haelan® Tape Strong Betamethasone valerate 0.1% Betnovate® Diflucortolone valerate 0.1% Nerisone® Fluocinolone acetonide 0.025% Synalar® Fluticasone propionate 0.05% Cutivate® Hydrocortisone butyrate 0.1% Locoid® Mometasone furoate 0.1% Elocon® Very strong Clobetasol propionate 0.1% Dermovate®, Clarelux® Diflucortolone valerate 0.3% Nerisone Forte® 1 of 5 In adults, stronger steroids are generally used on the body and mild or moderate steroids are used on the face and skin folds (armpits, breast folds, groin and genitals).

    Session: L092 Session: L168 Thoracic Epidural Analgesia in the Recently Anticoagulated Patient: Is This a Good Idea? Anuj Malhotra, M.D. Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York, NY Disclosures: This presenter has no financial relationships with commercial interests Stem Case and Key Questions Content A 52 year old male presents for open resection for colon cancer. He has had multiple prior abdominal surgeries and the planned approach is a supraumbilical midline incision that will cover the T6-T10 dermatomes. The patient is obese and has a history of COPD. Vitals: HR 70, BP 126/68, O2 sat 95% on RA, Ht 6'0", Wt 285 lbs 1) What surgical features and patient factors make this patient a good candidate for a thoracic epidural? 2) What level should this block be placed at? Should it be placed paramedian or midline? What should be infused? 3) Does it matter if the epidural is activated before surgery (pre-emptive analgesia) or after? What are the pros and cons of early dosing? The patient also has chronic abdominal pain treated with methadone 10 mg three times daily and oxycodone 5-10 mg four times daily. He is very concerned about difficulty with extubation, postoperative pain, and ileus. Medications: Methadone 10 mg tid, oxycodone 5-10 mg q 6 hrs prn, albuterol inhaler prn, fluticasone/salmeterol inhaler bid, metoprolol XL 50 mg daily ECG: irregularly irregular @ 70 bpm, QTc 440 ms 4) What patient characteristics suggest the need for postoperative pain control? Will thoracic epidural analgesia decrease ileus? Will it shorten duration of postoperative mechanical ventilation? 5) Does thoracic epidural analgesia affect long-term outcomes such as mortality or chronic postoperative pain? 6) Should his methadone be continued perioperatively if he has a neuraxial block for pain control? Upon reviewing the ECG and questioning the patient further, he reports a recent diagnosis of atrial fibrillation for which he takes dabigatran 150 mg bid for stroke prevention.

  • Medication Administration
    MEDICATION ADMINISTRATION GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS A. Before administering any medication, the EMT should know: 1. What is the medication being used? 2. Does the patient have an allergy to this medication? 3. What is the safe and effective dose? 4. What is the correct administration route? 5. What are the indications? (Why are you using is?) 6. What are the contraindications? (Why or when would you NOT use this medication?) 7. What are the expected effects? 8. What are the adverse effects / side effects? 9. Is the medication expired? B. The “Six Rights” of medication administration: 1. Right patient – is the medication indicated for this patient; no contraindications; no allergies 2. Right drug – the correct name (trade name vs. generic name); correct concentration 3. Right dose 4. Right route 5. Right time – slow IVP vs. rapid IVP 6. Right documentation C. Correct documentation of medications administered and/or IV/IO placement will include: 1. Time of medication administration; IV/IO placement 2. Route of administration 3. Size of catheter (IV/IO) 4. Site location for IV/IO and SQ, IM medication (include unsuccessful IV/IO attempt locations) 5. Dose or volume infused 6. Time of infusion as indicated (e.g., rapid IVP, infused over 10 minutes, etc.) 7. Name of EMT responsible 8. Any complications and steps made to correct 9. Patient’s response to treatment D. Use of a medication simply because it is in the protocol is not an acceptable standard of medical care. When there are questions about medication administration, consult medical control. ORAL ADMINSTRATION To administer an oral (PO) medication ensure that the patient has an intact gag reflex and place the patient in a seated or semi-seated position.
