fentanyl and Encephalopathy, Toxic

fentanyl has been researched along with Encephalopathy, Toxic in 6 studies

Fentanyl: A potent narcotic analgesic, abuse of which leads to habituation or addiction. It is primarily a mu-opioid agonist. Fentanyl is also used as an adjunct to general anesthetics, and as an anesthetic for induction and maintenance. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p1078)
fentanyl : A monocarboxylic acid amide resulting from the formal condensation of the aryl amino group of N-phenyl-1-(2-phenylethyl)piperidin-4-amine with propanoic acid.

Trial Outcomes

Duration of Motor Block

"The time difference between local anesthetic injection and complete resolution of motor block -as measured on the Bromage scale:~I = free movement of feet, legs and hip = No block II = able to flex knees, with free movement of feet = Mild block III = unable to flex knees, but with free movement of feet = Moderate block IV = unable to move legs or feet = Complete block" (NCT03305575)
Timeframe: 6 hours

Interventionminutes (Mean)
Chloroprocaine75
Bupivacaine99

Duration of Sensory Block

The time difference between local anesthetic injection and complete resolution of sensory block. The sensory level was tested using a blunt needle tip along the patient's demratomal distribution of the spinal anesthetic. (NCT03305575)
Timeframe: 6 hours

Interventionminutes (Mean)
Chloroprocaine127
Bupivacaine210

Time to Ambulation

The time difference between local anesthetic injection and patient's walking for the first time postoperatively. (NCT03305575)
Timeframe: 6 hours

Interventionminutes (Mean)
Chloroprocaine110
Bupivacaine179

Time to Micturation

The time difference between local anesthetic injection and the patient's voiding for the first time postoperatively. (NCT03305575)
