Study Notes
Induction Doses
- Propofol is typically administered at a dose of 1 to 2.5 mg/kg for induction of anesthesia.
Thiopental Presentation
- Thiopental is presented as a powder for reconstitution, typically in a vial containing 500 mg which is mixed with a suitable solvent before use.
Fentanyl Dosage
- Standard dose of Fentanyl is usually 50 to 100 micrograms (µg) for analgesia or sedation, administered intravenously.
Lidocaine Toxicity
- The maximum toxic dose of Lidocaine without adrenaline is generally 5 mg/kg in adults, which can lead to central nervous system and cardiovascular complications if exceeded.
Anaphylaxis Treatment
- Epinephrine (adrenaline) is the first-line treatment for suspected anaphylaxis, typically administered as an intramuscular injection.
