isoproterenol and Emergencies

isoproterenol has been researched along with Emergencies in 18 studies

Isoproterenol: Isopropyl analog of EPINEPHRINE; beta-sympathomimetic that acts on the heart, bronchi, skeletal muscle, alimentary tract, etc. It is used mainly as bronchodilator and heart stimulant.
isoprenaline : A secondary amino compound that is noradrenaline in which one of the hydrogens attached to the nitrogen is replaced by an isopropyl group. A sympathomimetic acting almost exclusively on beta-adrenergic receptors, it is used (mainly as the hydrochloride salt) as a bronghodilator and heart stimulant for the management of a variety of cardiac disorders.

Emergencies: Situations or conditions requiring immediate intervention to avoid serious adverse results.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Forty-eight patients who presented with acute episodes of asthma were randomized to treatment with subcutaneously administered epinephrine, inhaled isoproterenol, or intravenously administered aminophylline."9.05Emergency therapy of asthma: comparison of the acute effects of parenteral and inhaled sympathomimetics and infused aminophylline. ( Fanta, CH; Goldstein, DH; McFadden, ER; Rossing, TH; Snapper, JR, 1980)

"In an effort to determine the optimal emergency therapy for acute episodes of asthma, we randomly, assigned 102 acute ill patients to 60 minutes of treatment with inhaled isoproterenol alone, isoproterenol plus intravenous aminophylline or isoproterenol plus a single oral dose of an elixir of theophylline."5.05Emergency room of treatment of asthma. Relationships among therapeutic combinations, severity of obstruction and time course of response. ( Fanta, CH; McFadden, ER; Rossing, TH, 1982)

( Fanta, CH; Goldstein, DH; McFadden, ER; Rossing, TH; Snapper, JR, 1980)
" This disparity reflects the greater bronchodilation effected by isoproterenol as a single agent than by epinephrine, in the dosing schedules and routes of administration chosen."2.66Treatment of acute asthma. Is combination therapy with sympathomimetics and methylxanthines indicated? ( Fanta, CH; McFadden, ER; Rossing, TH, 1986)
"Ketamine appears to increase catecholamine levels and directly relax bronchial smooth muscle."1.27Use of ketamine in asthmatic children to treat respiratory failure refractory to conventional therapy. ( L'Hommedieu, CS; Reyes de la Rocha, S; Rock, MJ; Truemper, E, 1986)
