metoprolol and Brain Injuries

metoprolol has been researched along with Brain Injuries in 3 studies

Metoprolol: A selective adrenergic beta-1 blocking agent that is commonly used to treat ANGINA PECTORIS; HYPERTENSION; and CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIAS.
metoprolol : A propanolamine that is 1-(propan-2-ylamino)propan-2-ol substituted by a 4-(2-methoxyethyl)phenoxy group at position 1.

Brain Injuries: Acute and chronic (see also BRAIN INJURIES, CHRONIC) injuries to the brain, including the cerebral hemispheres, CEREBELLUM, and BRAIN STEM. Clinical manifestations depend on the nature of injury. Diffuse trauma to the brain is frequently associated with DIFFUSE AXONAL INJURY or COMA, POST-TRAUMATIC. Localized injuries may be associated with NEUROBEHAVIORAL MANIFESTATIONS; HEMIPARESIS, or other focal neurologic deficits.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The influence of continuous intravenous administration of metoprolol on heart rate and haemodynamics was tested in ten unconscious patients who, after sustaining a head injury, developed sinus tachycardia due to increased sympathicotonia."3.66[Effect of metoprolol on the circulation after head trauma. Studies during continuous intravenous administration (author's transl)]. ( Fuchs, HJ; Herden, HN; Welter, J, 1980)
