The tone depressing effect on deglutition peristaltic processes in the esophagus by i.v. application of 4,4-diphenyl-N-isopropyl-cyclohexylamine hydrochloride (pramiverine, Sistalgin) (0.03 and 0.045 mg/kg body weight), atropine (0.5 mg) and hyoscine-N-butylbromide (scopolamine-butylbromide, SBB)
BACKGROUND
First described in 1995, at least 325 patients with a history of heroin use have since required emergency medical evaluation in several eastern US cities, because of an anticholinergic toxidrome following use of heroin. This co-intoxication has been alleged to result from an atropine-like
Scopolamine-induced cognitive impairment was used in healthy men to evaluate the central nervous system activity of the new cholinomimetic SDZ ENS-163. Eighteen subjects were treated in a crossover design with oral placebo/intravenous saline, 50 mg of oral SDZ ENS-163/intravenous saline, oral
In 41 survivors of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) a prospective study was performed in 2 sequential phases. In phase 1, the role of baroreflex sensitivity and heart rate variability as predictors of inducible and spontaneous sustained ventricular tachyarrhythmias was evaluated. In phase 2, the
To evaluate the usefulness of pirenzepine for diagnostic double-contrast barium enema study of the large bowel, pirenzepine and scopolamine methyl bromide (SMB) were compared in a single, blind, randomized trial. Sixty consecutive patients were enrolled in the study. Quantitative analysis of bowel
To evaluate usefulness of pirenzepine, a selective M1 antimuscarinic drug, for diagnostic double-contrast study of the upper gastrointestinal tract, pirenzepine and scopolamine methylbromide (SMB) were compared in a single blind randomized trial. Seventy consecutive patients were enrolled in the
The purpose of the present study is to assess the importance of pirenzepine, a selective M1 antimuscarinic drug, as hypotonic agent for diagnostic double-contrast studies of the upper gastrointestinal tract and for double-contrast barium enema studies of the large bowel. Pirenzepine and scopolamine
Datura inoxia belongs to the family of Solanaceae. This is a very common plant in New Caledonia that contains two main toxic alkaloids, l-atropine and l-scopolamine. In this study, we report the case of a 20-year-old male admitted to an Emergency Unit after consumption of 6 dried flowers in hot
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the efficacy of a rapid detoxification schedule for heroin addicts by scopolamine combined with opiate receptor antagonists.
METHODS
The life signs such as temperature, blood pressure, ECG, heart rate, respiratory rate and blood oxygen saturation were monitored during the
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the efficacy of treatment of heroin addicts (n = 100) by scopolamine detoxification (10 days program).
METHODS
Methadone detoxification (10 days program) group (n = 50) and clonidine treated group (n = 50) served as controls.
RESULTS
The scores of abstinence syndrome in
Sixty-two fetal heart rate/uterine contraction recordings were examined prior to and following the administration of analgesia. Two groups, identified according to the receipt or absence of scopolamine, were evaluated concerning modification of baseline variability, beat-to-beat variability and
A 54-year-old woman with advanced cirrhosis secondary to hepatitis C, end-stage kidney failure on hemodialysis, and nonischemic cardiomyopathy was admitted to the medical intensive care unit for treatment of a superior vena cava (SVC) thrombus involving a recently implanted
We present a case of a 66-year-old female who was to undergo a scheduled operation and placed on our institution's ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) protocol. The intraoperative course was unremarkable. The patient developed delayed emergence in the Post-Anesthesia Care Unit. On physical exam,
To verify the assumptions in our previous risk assessment of an atropine/scopolamine mixture in buckwheat flour, we performed a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled cross-over study in 20 healthy, adult volunteers. The volunteers ingested a traditional Slovenian buckwheat meal, made of
