In preparation of a trial on the neuroprotective effect of GABAergic activation by a benzodiazepine, we performed a feasibility study in 104 patients with acute (less than 24 h) stroke. 5 mg diazepam twice daily for 5 days (n = 44) was well tolerated, feasible, and appeared to be safe. Testing a
Administering diazepam intravenously or rectally in an adult with status epilepticus can be difficult and time consuming. The aim of this study was to examine whether intranasal diazepam is an effective alternative to intravenous diazepam when treating status epilepticus. We undertook a
BACKGROUND
We tested whether diazepam, a GABA-ergic drug that also inhibits brain nitric monoxide formation, improves acute stroke prognosis.
METHODS
880 patients, randomized within 12 h of acute stroke, received diazepam 10 mg or placebo by rectiole, as soon as possible, followed by 10-mg tablets
The cardiovascular effects of diazepam 0.5 and 1.0 mg/kg and diazepam with pancuronium 0.1 mg/kg after fentanyl 0.5 mg/kg were determined in thirteen dogs premedicated with atropine. Fentanyl produced significant reductions in heart rate, cardiac ouptut and arterial blood pressure. Administration of
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the cardiorespiratory effects of IV administration of propofol (4 mg/kg), ketamine hydrochloride and propofol (2 mg/kg each; K-P), or ketamine hydrochloride (5 mg/kg) and diazepam (0.2 mg/kg; K-D) before and after induction of anesthesia (IoA) in dogs sedated with acepromazine
Even though stroke is known to be a common cause of status epilepticus (SE), the types of stroke or SE that may be associated are not yet clearly defined. The aims of this study were to assess the timing and type of SE in stroke patients and to observe the effects of stroke and the type of SE on the
OBJECTIVE
This study aimed to report a rare clinical course of pandemic influenza A(H1N1) infection, ischemic stroke, in a 9 month-old child.
METHODS
A 9-month-old girl with no previous medical problem presented to our pediatric emergency department with high fever (39°C/102°F) lasting for 48 hours.
In the primary visual cortex (V1), monocular deprivation (MD) induces a shift in the ocular dominance (OD) of binocular neurons towards the open eye (Wiesel and Hubel, 1963; Gordon and Stryker, 1996). In V1 of C57Bl/6J mice, this OD-plasticity is maximal in juveniles, declines in adults and is
The cardiovascular and respiratory effects of three common intravenous premedicants were examined noninvasively in a population of 20 dental outpatients scheduled for surgical removal of third-molars. Two third molars from one side of the mouth were removed at each appointment. Group 1 received a
OBJECTIVE
To compare induction with hydromorphone and diazepam (HydroD) or oxymorphone and diazepam (OxyD) followed by maintenance with isoflurane in dogs with induced hypovolemia.
METHODS
6 healthy mixed-breed dogs.
METHODS
The study used a crossover design. Measurements were obtained in
Hemodynamic responses to induction of anesthesia with midazolam maleate and diazepam were compared in patients with ischemic heart disease. While breathing 100% oxygen, 10 patients (group M) received midazolam maleate, 0.2 mg/kg, and 10 patients (group D) received diazepam, 0.5 mg/kg. In addition,
The present study was designed to investigate the effects of diazepam, a benzodiazepine (BZ) with high affinity to central BZ receptors and moderate affinity to mitochondrial BZ receptors, and of Ro 5-4864 and PK 11195, ligands specific for mitochondrial BZ receptors, on cardiac function in the
OBJECTIVE
To compare the hemodynamic responses to orotracheal intubation following induction of anesthesia with propofol, ketamine-propofol, and ketamine-diazepam in premedicated dogs.
METHODS
Prospective, randomized, masked study.
METHODS
10 healthy adult Beagles.
METHODS
Dogs were randomly
Midazolam is gradually replacing diazepam in neuroleptanalgesia with fentanyl and sufentanil because of its greater water solubility, greater hypnotic potency, shorter half-life, lack of pharmacologically active metabolites and low incidence of thrombophlebitis. In order to substantiate midazolam as
Although diazepam provides limited long term neuroprotection, it may be useful for expanding the therapeutic time window after stroke by delaying neuronal death. However, it is not known to what extent diazepam maintains normal cellular structure and function in the first few days after ischemia. We
