fentanyl and Mucopolysaccharidosis IV

fentanyl has been researched along with Mucopolysaccharidosis IV in 2 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.

Mucopolysaccharidosis IV: Genetic disorder of mucopolysaccharide metabolism characterized by skeletal abnormalities, joint instability, development of cervical myelopathy, and excessive urinary keratan sulfate. There are two biochemically distinct forms, each due to a deficiency of a different enzyme.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" The current report details five children in whom a percutaneously placed lumbar intrathecal catheter was used: (i) to provide intraoperative surgical anaesthesia instead of general anaesthesia (ii); to deliver intrathecal fentanyl to provide postoperative analgesia (iii); to provide chronic pain control during the terminal stages of metastatic malignancy; (iv) to allow repeated doses of intrathecal chemotherapy; and (v) to allow CSF drainage and prevent CSF leakage following frontal encephalocele repair."3.70Applications of intrathecal catheters in children.
