lorazepam and Recrudescence

lorazepam has been researched along with Recrudescence in 43 studies

Lorazepam: A benzodiazepine used as an anti-anxiety agent with few side effects. It also has hypnotic, anticonvulsant, and considerable sedative properties and has been proposed as a preanesthetic agent.

Endotracheal intubation includes placement of a definitive tracheal airway (oro-, naso-, cricothyroidotomy, or tracheostomy) for support of respirations or protection of airway. Non-definitive and/or non-tracheal airways (oral or nasal airways, laryngeal mask airways, or esophageal obturator airways) are not included if the patient is not subsequently intubated unless specifically deemed to have been used in lieu of tracheal intubation.

Treatment does not include imaging without other interventions. This definition also includes wound infection requiring antibiotic therapy, retained foreign bodies requiring exploration and removal, or other similar wound problems. (NCT00809146)

Timeframe: within 12 hours after ED arrival

Interventionparticipants (Number)
IM Midazolam51
IV Lorazepam47

Number of Subjects With Termination of Seizures at ED Arrival With no Rescue Therapy Given

The primary outcome was termination of seizures before arrival in the emergency department (ED) without the need for the paramedics to provide rescue therapy. Subjects did not reach the primary outcome if they were having seizures on arrival in the emergency department or if they received rescue medication before arrival. Termination of seizures on arrival was determined according to the clinical judgment of the attending emergency physician and was based on examination of the subjects, their clinical course, and results of any routine diagnostic testing. (NCT00809146)
Timeframe: Duration of prehospital care, outcome is determined upon arrival at the ED on the day of enrollment (average 20 minutes).
