- Acceptable induction agents include Sodium pentathal 3-5 mg/kg, or propafol 1 – 2.5 mg/kg. Midazolam 0.1 – 0.2 mg/kg can be used as an alternative. - Succinycholine 1.5 mg/kg or Rocuronium 1.2 mg/kg should be used as the neuromuscular blocking agent. The patient should be sent for a stat uninfused CT Scan immediately following intubation.

Prolonged administration of pressor agents has been associated with oedema, haemorrhage, focal myocarditis, subpericardial haemorrhage, necrosis of the intestine and hepatic and renal necrosis. Since these effects have generally been observed in patients with severe shock and it is not clear if the drug or the shock state itself was responsible ...

Adjustments in medications or addition of pressor agents can be very effective in treating this problem. Constipation may be the result of medication (particularly anticholinergics or amantadine) or disease. The extreme effect may be bowel obstruction, which is extremely serious. This manifestation should be treated aggressively.

Vasopressin augments the effects of other vasopressor agents and is most commonly used for this mechanism at doses of 0.03 to 0.04 units/min (19). Vasopressin also targets V1 receptors in the vascular smooth muscle leading to vasoconstriction of peripheral arterial beds. Due to the cardiac ischemia associated with higher doses, vasopressin is ...
