propylene glycol and Critical Illness

propylene glycol has been researched along with Critical Illness in 6 studies

Propylene Glycol: A clear, colorless, viscous organic solvent and diluent used in pharmaceutical preparations.
propane-1,2-diol : The simplest member of the class of propane-1,2-diols, consisting of propane in which a hydrogen at position 1 and a hydrogen at position 2 are substituted by hydroxy groups. A colourless, viscous, hygroscopic, low-melting (-59degreeC) and high-boiling (188degreeC) liquid with low toxicity, it is used as a solvent, emulsifying agent, and antifreeze.

Critical Illness: A disease or state in which death is possible or imminent.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Serum propylene glycol concentrations were drawn at 48 hrs into the high-dose lorazepam infusion, and the presence of propylene glycol accumulation, as evidenced by a high anion gap (> or =15 mmol/L) metabolic acidosis with elevated osmol gap (> or =10 mOsm/L), was assessed at that time."5.11Relationship of continuous infusion lorazepam to serum propylene glycol concentration in critically ill adults. ( Arroliga, AC; Gonzales, JP; McCarthy, K; Shehab, N, 2004)
"Benzyl alcohol exposure was likely to be several-fold high in critically ill patients."1.56Possible effects of excipients used in the parenteral drugs administered in critically ill adults, children, and neonates. ( Al Ansari, E; Al Daylami, A; Al Jufairi, M; Hasan, HM; Pasha, SAA; Qader, AM; Sridharan, K, 2020)
"Propylene glycol accumulation was defined as concentrations of 25 mg/dL or more."1.35Propylene glycol accumulation in critically ill patients receiving continuous intravenous lorazepam infusions. ( Fish, DN; Horinek, EL; Kiser, TH; MacLaren, R, 2009)
