droperidol and Varices

droperidol has been researched along with Varices in 3 studies

Droperidol: A butyrophenone with general properties similar to those of HALOPERIDOL. It is used in conjunction with an opioid analgesic such as FENTANYL to maintain the patient in a calm state of neuroleptanalgesia with indifference to surroundings but still able to cooperate with the surgeon. It is also used as a premedicant, as an antiemetic, and for the control of agitation in acute psychoses. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 29th ed, p593)
droperidol : An organofluorine compound that is haloperidol in which the hydroxy group has been eliminated with the introduction of a double bond in the piperidine ring, and the 4-chlorophenyl group has been replaced by a benzimidazol-2-on-1-yl group. It is used in the management of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, and in conjunction with an opioid analgesic such as fentanyl to maintain the patient in a calm state of neuroleptanalgesia with indifference to surroundings but still able to cooperate with the surgeon.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Within a randomized study the patients were given by alternate order halothane (NA) (n = 19), neurolept-analgesia (NLA) (n = 19) or peridural anesthesia (PA) (n = 19)."5.05[Effect of anesthesia on blood coagulation factor XIII]. ( Blumenberg, D; Homann, B; Lerner, H, 1984)
" Atropine plus droperidol was superior to atropine plus diazepam or atropine alone in lessening nausea and vomiting and in reducing the need for postoperative analgesia."5.04Double-blind clinical trial of anaesthetic premedication for use in major day surgery. ( Davie, IT; Espley, AJ; Prescott, RJ; Ruckley, CV; Slawson, KB, 1976)
