Matters needing attention in amiodarone medication

Pay attention to the following precautions when using amiodarone:

1, for patients with cardiac insufficiency and insufficient blood volume, can cause severe circulatory depression. Therefore, before ketamine anesthesia, it is necessary to replenish blood volume, improve myocardial function and correct water and electrolyte disorders.

2. In order to reduce the secretion of tracheal mucus, atropine or scopolamine can be given before medication, but the latter has the disadvantage of dreaming after waking up. If excessive ketamine produces respiratory depression, measures such as artificial respiration can be implemented, but respiratory stimulants should not be used.

3. Fasting before operation, drinking alcohol or taking central nervous system inhibitors within 24 hours after taking the medicine. Because of laryngeal reflex, it is not suitable for oral surgery.

4. Ketamine is prohibited for patients with hypertension, history of cerebrovascular accident, increased intracranial pressure and intracranial space occupying lesions caused by excitement of cardiovascular system. Use with caution in patients with glaucoma, psychosis, hyperthyroidism, acute alcoholism or chronic addiction.

5. Some patients have mental disorders and even delirium. Especially in the recovery period, nightmares, delusions, hallucinations, sometimes accompanied by delirium and whipping.

6, in the recovery period should try to avoid external stimuli (including language), in order to reduce such adverse reactions, if necessary, intravenous injection of a small amount of short-acting barbiturates or diazepam, can also make the situation better.
