Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is commonly associated with acute hyperdynamic cardiovascular responses, and we hypothesize that intravenous lignocaine can blunt this response. We have measured the effect of lignocaine 1.5 mg/kg i.v. on heart rate and mean arterial pressure during electroconvulsive
Myotonic seizures with apnea are alarming but temporary incidents occurring during curaization of a myotonic patient. Experience with regional curaization in myotonia shows that it is induced only by suxamethonium and it is only an exaggeration of the fasciculations produced by this compound. In
Recognition molecules provide important cues for neuronal survival, axonal fasciculation, axonal pathfinding, synaptogenesis, synaptic plasticity, and regeneration. Our previous studies revealed a link between perisomatic inhibition and the extracellular matrix glycoprotein tenascin-R (TN-R).
The purpose of the present study was to examine the effect of prenatal methamphetamine (MA) exposure on flurothyl seizures. Adult prenatally MA-exposed male rats had decreased threshold of the first fasciculation and clonic seizure. In adult female rats, prenatal MA exposure decreased the threshold
Two non-epileptic patients developed convulsions immediately after induction of anesthesia with propofol. Their vital signs were stable during operation and they recovered from convulsion promptly. Case 1: A 25-year-old man was scheduled for lumbar herniectomy. Anesthesia was induced with propofol
A nine-year-old mixed breed dog was presented with a history of mild generalized seizures, weakness, and muscle fasciculations, following periods of excitement and exercise. Investigative procedures included haematology, chemical pathology, faecal analysis, urinalysis, cerebrospinal fluid analysis,
We investigated the effects of chemical convulsants in the leopard frog. Systemic kainic acid (5-20 mg/kg) caused limbic-like seizures, with staring, catatonia, fasciculations, and severe motor seizures, which were almost always lethal. Intracerebral electroencephalographic (EEG) recordings showed
BACKGROUND
Pyrethroids are synthetic pyrethrin analogues that induce sodium-channel depolarization and hyperexcitation. Severe pyrethroid poisoning is manifested by a "Tremor Syndrome" (Type I cyano-agents) or a "Choreoathetosis/Salivation Syndrome" (Type II non cyano-agents). Very few reports of
A 7-year-old mixed breed spayed bitch (body weight: 10.6 kg) was presented with a history of intermittent episodes of seizures and untreated limb fracture. Appetite loss, nervousness, lateral recumbency, fasciculations, ataxia and poor nutritional condition were found. Venous blood gas analysis
The adverse effects in a series of 50 lumbar myelographies with Amipaque were compared with those in a corresponding series, examined with Dimer-X. Side effects occurred in 58% of the cases examined with Amipaque and in 68% of the Dimer-X series. No seizures occurred in 58% of the cases examined
OBJECTIVE
To describe common physical examination findings, clinicopathologic changes, treatment, and outcome in patients with evidence of neurotoxicity secondary to rattlesnake envenomation.
METHODS
Retrospective multicenter study (2005-2010).
METHODS
Three private veterinary referral
BACKGROUND
Venous air embolism is a potentially life-threatening complication of IV catheter use in horses. Despite widespread anecdotal reports of their occurrence, few cases have been reported in the literature and the prognosis is currently unknown.
OBJECTIVE
Our objective was to describe the
The ability of acetylcholinesterase from fetal bovine serum (FBS AChE) to protect against soman, a highly toxic organophosphorus (OP) compound, was tested in rhesus monkeys. Intravenous administration of FBS AChE produced a minimal behavioral effect on the serial probe recognition task, a sensitive
OBJECTIVE
Permethrin is a synthetic pyrethroid widely used in flea control products for small animals. Accidental toxicity can occur with off-label usage, and cats are particularly susceptible.
METHODS
Retrospective study of 20 cases of permethrin toxicity in cats treated at an emergency clinic in
OBJECTIVE
To determine the effects of 4-aminopyridine and Bay K 8644 on mean arterial pressure and heart rate in an anesthetized rat model of verapamil toxicity.
METHODS
The study was a randomized, controlled animal study. Rats were anesthetized and the carotid artery was cannulated for mean
