pentobarbital and Hypercapnia

pentobarbital has been researched along with Hypercapnia in 30 studies

Pentobarbital: A short-acting barbiturate that is effective as a sedative and hypnotic (but not as an anti-anxiety) agent and is usually given orally. It is prescribed more frequently for sleep induction than for sedation but, like similar agents, may lose its effectiveness by the second week of continued administration. (From AMA Drug Evaluations Annual, 1994, p236)
pentobarbital : A member of the class of barbiturates, the structure of which is that of barbituric acid substituted at C-5 by ethyl and sec-pentyl groups.

Hypercapnia: A clinical manifestation of abnormal increase in the amount of carbon dioxide in arterial blood.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The respiratory response to hypercapnia in dogs anaesthetized with ketamine was increased."7.65Response to hypercapnia under ketamine anaesthesia. ( Brindle, GF; Kuster, G; Soliman, MG, 1975)
" We tested the hypothesis that asphyxia alone can cause cardiorespiratory failure ("failure") in pentobarbital-anesthetized rats."3.80Hypoxia, not hypercapnia, induces cardiorespiratory failure in rats. ( Iscoe, S; Simpson, JA, 2014)
" In vivo, pregnancy rendered respiratory motor output insensitive to otherwise lethal doses of pentobarbital, a barbiturate previously used to categorize the ε subunit."3.78Increased GABA(A) receptor ε-subunit expression on ventral respiratory column neurons protects breathing during pregnancy. ( Behan, M; Crader, SM; Hengen, KB; Johnson, SM; Mitchell, GS; Nelson, NR; Stang, KM; Watters, JJ, 2012)
"Previously, we demonstrated that dobutamine was more effective than dopamine for the improvement of diaphragmatic contractility during hypercapnia."3.74The effects of different dobutamine infusion rates on hypercapnic depression of diaphragmatic contractility in pentobarbital-anesthetized dogs. ( Fujii, Y; Uemura, A, 2007)
"Anesthesia was induced with 65 and 45 mg/kg pentobarbital in male and female rats, respectively."3.70Experimental critical care in rats: gender differences in anesthesia, ventilation, and gas exchange. ( Camacho, MT; Hon, E; Ramirez, J; Raszynski, A; Sussmane, JB; Torbati, D; Wolfsdorf, J, 1999)
"Systemic dexmedetomidine (DXM) attenuates the cerebral vasodilation induced by hypercapnia and decreases the cerebral blood flow response to hypoxia."3.70Intrathecal dexmedetomidine attenuates hypercapnic but not hypoxic cerebral vasodilation in anesthetized rabbits. ( Dohi, S; Iida, H; Iida, M; Takenaka, M, 2000)
" We assessed the effects of dexmedetomidine (DEX), a highly selective alpha 2-adrenergic agonist, on the cerebrovascular response to hypercapnia in dogs anesthetized with either pentobarbital (PENTO) or isoflurane (ISO), drugs which produce different levels of CBF at a similar level of cerebral oxygen consumption (CMRO2)."3.69Alpha 2-adrenergic agonist effects on normocapnic and hypercapnic cerebral blood flow in the dog are anesthetic dependent. ( Fale, A; Kirsch, JR; McPherson, RW, 1994)
"We evaluated the effect of general anesthesia induced by 45 mg/kg iv pentobarbital sodium or by 75 mg/kg iv alpha-chloralose plus 500 mg/kg iv urethan on the response of cerebral arterioles to hypercapnia in rabbits equipped with chronically implanted cranial windows for the observation of the cerebral microcirculation."3.67Effects of anesthesia on cerebral arteriolar responses to hypercapnia. ( Kontos, HA; Levasseur, JE, 1989)
"The respiratory response to hypercapnia in dogs anaesthetized with ketamine was increased."3.65Response to hypercapnia under ketamine anaesthesia. ( Brindle, GF; Kuster, G; Soliman, MG, 1975)
"The ventilatory responses to isocapnic hypoxia and hypercapnia were studied in seven chronically tracheostomized dogs awake and during anesthesia with pentobarbital (30 mg/kg, iv), ketamine, or thiopental (10 and 15 mg/kg, respectively, followed by infusion)."3.65Hypoxic ventilatory drive in dogs during thiopental, ketamine, or pentobarbital anesthesia. ( Cohen, PJ; Hirshman, CA; McCullough, RE; Weil, JV, 1975)
