Herkese merhaba! Acilci.net ailesi olarak, Amerikan Kalp Cemiyeti'nin (AHA) zehirlenmiş hastalarda yaşamı tehdit eden toksisite ve kardiyak arrest yönetimi ile ilgili yayınladığı odaklanmış güncellemeleri1 sizlerle paylaşmaya devam ediyoruz. Dr. Emre Kudu'nun giriş bölümünü yazdığı yazıya buradan ulaşabilirsiniz. Bugünkü yazımızda ise, güncellemenin özellikle kritik zehirlenmelerle ilgili spesifik önerilerini ve tedavi yaklaşımlarını inceleyeceğiz. Hadi başlayalım! Benzodiazepinler Giriş Benzodiazepinler, anksiyete, uykusuzluk, nöbetler ve yoksunluk sendromları gibi durumları tedavi etmek ve genel anestezi ile prosedürel sedasyonda kullanılan yaygın sedatif-hipnotik ilaçlardır. Bu ilaçlar, genellikle opioidler veya alkol gibi diğer merkezi sinir sistemi baskılayıcıları ile birlikte, zehirlenme ile ilişkili birçok ölüme neden olabilirler. Benzodiazepin aşırı dozu, GABA-A reseptörüne etki ederek merkezi sinir sistemi depresyonuna ve solunum yolu komplikasyonlarına neden olabilir. Bu durum, hipoksemi ve hiperkarbi gibi sorunlara yol açarak doku hasarına ve ölüme sebep olabilir. Benzodiazepin zehirlenmesi olan hastalarda havayolunun açıklığının sağlanması, balon-maske ventilasyonu gereklilik halinde endotrakeal entübasyon standart yaşam desteğinin önemli basamaklarıdır. Flumazenil, benzodiazepinlerin GABA-A reseptörüne bağlanmasını engelleyen bir antagonisttir. Bu ilaç, merkezi sinir sistemi ve solunum depresyonunu tersine çevirebilir, ancak benzodiazepin bağımlısı hastalarda nöbet riskini artırabilir. Ayrıca, özellikle disritmojenik ilaçlar (örneğin, siklik antidepresanlar) veya hipoksi varlığında kalp ritmi bozukluklarına yol açabilir. Flumazenil, sempatik tonusun benzodiazepin aracılı baskılanmasını ortadan kaldırır. Flumazenil, karışık aşırı dozlarda solunum depresyonunu tamamen tersine çeviremeyebilir. Çoklu ilaçla aşırı doz zehierlenmeler sık karşılaşılan bir durumdur. Benzodiazepin doz aşımı, opioid doz aşımından şüphelenildiğinde naloksonun zamanında uygulanmasını engellememelidir. Bu durum, opioid katkılı yasadışı uyuşturucuların varlığı göz önüne alındığında önemlidir. Öneriye Özgü Destekleyici Metin İzole benzodiazepin zehirlenmesi nadiren hayatı tehdit eden hipoventilasyon veya hemodinamik instabiliteye neden olur. Böyle durumlarda opioid, etanol veya diğer SSS depresan zehirlenmelerinin olabileceği de düşünülmelidir. Opioid zehirlenmeleri benzodiazepin zehirlenmelerinden daha yaygındır, daha belirgin solunum depresyonuna neden olur ve nalokson flumazenil ile karşılaştırıldığında daha güvenilirdir. Flumazenil bazı düşük riskli durumlarda (örn. pediatrik keşif amaçlı alımlar ve prosedürel sedasyon sırasında iyatrojenik aşırı dozlar) ve yüksek riskli durumlar (örn. kronik benzodiazepin bağımlılığı ve diğer tehlikeli maddelerin birlikte alımı) güvenilir bir şekilde dışlandığında güvenlidir. Flumazenil, doğrudan kalp ritmini etkilemez veya spontan dolaşımı geri döndürmez. Benzodiazepin aşırı dozunun varsayıldığı hastalar üzerinde gerçekleştirilen randomize klinik çalışmaların meta-analiz sonuçlarına göre, flumazenil uygulaması, standart bakıma kıyasla nöbetler ve disritmiler gibi ciddi yan etkilerin daha yüksek oranda ortaya çıkmasına neden olmuştur. Flumazenil kaynaklı zararlar genellikle nadir görülmekte ve çoğunlukla etkin bir şekilde yönetilebilmektedir. Ancak, tıbbi öyküsü, madde kullanım geçmişi ve maruz kalınan potansiyel toksin(ler) hakkında yeterli bilgiye sahip olunmayan ayırıcı tanı yapılamamış koma durumundaki hastalarda, flumazenilin olası riskleri, elde edilen faydalardan daha fazladır. β-Blokerler Giriş β-Blokerler zehirlenme kaynaklı ölümlerin önde gelen nedenlerindendir. Ciddi β-bloker zehirlenmesi olan hastalarda bradikardi ve kardiyak kontraktilitenin azalmasına bağlı olarak hipotansiyon gelişir. Bazı β-blokerler ayrıca sodyum veya potasyum kanal blokajından kaynaklanan disritmilere neden olabilirler. Bradikardi,
Herkese merhaba! Geçtiğimiz aylarda Amerikan Kalp Cemiyeti (AHA) tarafından zehirlenmiş hastalarda hayatı tehdit eden toksisite veya kardiyak arrest yönetimine yönelik odaklanmış güncellenme yayınlanmıştı.1 Acilci.net ailesi olarak bu yazı serimizde bu güncellemeyi sizlere sunacağız. İlk yazımızda, güncellemenin Giriş bölümüne yer vereceğiz. Serinin devam eden yazıları ise spesifik olarak kritik zehirlenmelere yönelik konular ile devam edecek. Zehirlenmiş Hastalarda Hayatı Tehdit Eden Toksisite veya Kardiyak Arrest Yönetimine Dair Eve Götürülecek 10 Mesaj Zehirlenmeye bağlı kardiyak arrest ve yaşamı tehdit eden toksisitenin tedavisi, etkili temel ve ileri yaşam desteğinin yanı sıra çoğu zaman antidotlar ve venoarteriyel ekstrakorporeal membran oksijenasyonu (VA-ECMO) gibi çoğu klinisyenin sıklıkla kullanmadığı özel tedavileri gerektirir. Tıbbi toksikolog, klinik toksikolog veya bölgesel zehir merkezi ile zamanında konsültasyon, hızlı ve etkili tedaviyi kolaylaştırır. Opioid doz aşımı, Kuzey Amerika'da zehirlenmeye bağlı kardiyak arrestin önde gelen nedeni olmaya devam etmektedir. Nalokson uygulaması solunum durmasını tersine çevirerek kardiyak arreste ilerlemeyi önleyebilir. Hayatı tehdit eden β-bloker ve kalsiyum kanal bloker zehirlenmesi olan hastaların tedavisinde erken dönemde yüksek doz insülin tedavisi önerilmektedir. Sodyum bikarbonat uygulamasının eklendiği standart ileri yaşam desteği, kokain veya diğer sodyum kanal blokerlerinin neden olduğu hayatı tehdit eden disritmilerin tedavisi için uygundur. Siyanür zehirlenmesinden şüpheleniliyorsa doğrulama testini beklenmemelidir. Hemen hidroksokobalamin (tercih edilir) veya sodyum nitrit + sodyum tiyosülfat ile tedavisi uygulanmalıdır. Digoksin spesifik immün antikor fragmanlarının uygulanması, digoksin zehirlenmesinden kaynaklanan yaşamı tehdit eden aritmileri tersine çevirebilir. Özellikle bupivakainden kaynaklanan yaşamı tehdit eden lokal anestezik toksisitesinin resüsitasyonunda %20 intravenöz lipid emülsiyonunun kullanılması etkili olabilir. Sempatomimetik zehirlenmesinden dolayı şiddetli ajitasyonu olan hastalarda sedasyon uygulamasına ihtiyaç duyarlar. Böylece hipertermi ve asidozu yönetimine, rabdomiyoliz ve yaralanmayı önlenmesine ve yaşamı tehdit eden diğer durumların değerlendirilmesine olanak sağlanmış olur. Flumazenil, benzodiazepin zehirlenmesinden kaynaklanan merkezi sinir sistemini ve solunum depresyonunu tersine çevirir, ancak önemli riskler ve kontrendikasyonlar kullanımını sınırlar. VA ECMO, diğer tedavi önlemlerine dirençli kardiyojenik şok veya disritmileri olan hastalar için hayat kurtarıcı olabilir. Venoarteriyel ECMO uygulaması zaman aldığından diğer tedavilere iyi yanıt vermeyen hastalarda işleme erken başlanmalıdır. Önsöz Nisan 2021'de sona eren 12 aylık dönemde, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri'nde 100.000'den fazla kişi zehirlenme ve ilaç aşırı dozundan dolayı öldü ve bu sayı önceki yıla göre %28,5'lik bir artış gösterdi.2 Bu ölümlerin yüzde doksanı kasıtsızdı. Her ne kadar bu ölümlerin çoğunluğu (75.673) opioid doz aşımına atfedilmiş olsa da diğer toksinlerden kaynaklanan zehirlenmeler önemli sayıda can kaybına yol açmaya devam ediyor. Kardiyak arrest, dirençli şok veya kardiyak arrest tehdidi oluşturan diğer durumlar olarak tanımlanan kritik zehirlenmeli hastaların yönetimi, genellikle standart resüsitasyondan farklıdır. Örneğin hastalar, β-adrenerjik reseptör antagonisti (β-bloker) veya kalsiyum kanalı antagonisti (kalsiyum kanal blokeri [CCB]) zehirlenmesinden dolayı hipotansiyon geliştirebilirler. Bu durum sıklıkla atropine, standart vazopresörlere veya kalp pili uygulamasına yanıt vermez iken hedefe yönelik yüksek doz insülin gibi tedavilerden fayda görebilir. Siyanür zehirlenmesinin mitokondriyal inhibisyonu, kalp ve beyindeki hücresel adenozin trifosfat konsantrasyonlarını eski haline getirmek için hidroksokobalamin gibi spesifik antidotlar gerektirir. Zehirlenen hastalar,
In deze podcast vertelt Erik Paling, verslavingsarts bij Brijder, specialist in verslavingszorg zijn visie op verslaving en belicht hij de macht van de benzo's vanuit zijn werk als verslavingsarts. Het ‘off-label' voorschrijven gebeurt heel veel, zegt hij. Uit zijn verhaal komt goed naar voren, hoe een pilletje toch makkelijk is voorgeschreven en cognitieve gedragstherapie voor slaapproblemen vaak niet wordt vergoed.
In this episode, we discuss the ways in which tolerance to benzodiazepines can develop, and how this can lead to extremely difficult withdrawals. We argue that the commonly held view of drug tolerance is delaying promising research avenues, such as "anti-tolerance drugs". We think that NAD+ IV therapy and flumazenil show promise for treating benzodiazepine withdrawal, and encourage people to share their experiences with these treatments.

Flumazenilin Farmakolojisi Klinik Kullanımı Dozları Yan Etkileri
Flumazenilin Genel Özellikleri Fizikokimyasal Özellikleri Metabolizması Farmakıkinetiği
Zehirlenmeler, sebebi ister kaza ister öz kıyım olsun, acil servis hekimlerinin sık karşılaştığı, tanısı, tedavisi ve yönetimi Tıbbi/Klinik Toksikoloji bilim dalı altında geliştirilmiş ve her acil servis hekiminin de hasta yönetimindeki temel prensipleri bilmesi gereken özel durumlardır. Akut zehirlenmelerde tıbbi yönetimin asıl hedefi klinik stabiliteyi bozan durumları tanımak, gerek destek tedavi ile gerekse özelleşmiş tedavilerle bu toksik etkileri ortadan kaldırmaktır. Genel yaklaşım prensipleri, çok sayıda ve geniş çaplı olmasına rağmen akılda kalıcılığını artırmak adına temel olanları basamaklar halinde sizlere sunmayı amaçladık. Sonraki yazı serilerimizde bu basamaklar detaylı bir şekilde tartışılacaktır. Akut Zehirlenmelerde Tıbbi Yönetim Akış Çizelgesi 1.Havayolu-Solunum değerlendirilmesi: Havayolu (A), solunum(B) ve dolaşım(C) değerlendirmesi, acil tıbbi yaklaşımın ilk basamağını oluşturur. Yüksek doz madde maruziyetine bağlı ölümlerin en sık nedeni havayolu koruyucu reflekslerin kaybına bağlı oluşan solunum arrestidir. Bilinci kapalı hastalarda havayolu temel manevralarla açıldıktan sonra solunum depresyonu veya solunum arresti söz konusu ise ileri havayolu yönetimine geçmeden önce opioid toksidrom varlığından şüphe ediliyorsa opioid reseptör antagonisti olan naloksan uygulanmalıdır.1 Benzodiazepin reseptör antagonisti olan flumazenil ise solunum depresyonu veya arresti olan zehirlenme şüphesi durumunda, kronik benzodiazepin kullanım öyküsü olan hastalarda yoksunluk sendromunu ve dirençli nöbetleri tetikleyeceğinden dolayı rutin kullanımı önerilmemektedir. Flumazenil, sadece akut toksik benzodiazepin maruziyeti bilinen hastalarda (acil servislerde sedasyon amaçlı kullanımın komplikasyonu gibi) durumlarda kullanılmalıdır.2 2. Dolaşım Değerlendirilmesi: Genel değerlendirme nabız, tansiyon, ritm kontrolü ile başlar. Kardiyak arrest söz konusu ise İleri Kardiyak Yaşam Desteği (İKYD) Kılavuzu'na uygun şekilde tüm hastalara müdahale edilir. Toksinler, kardiyopulmoner arrestin geri döndürülebilir nedenleri arasında yer aldığından bu hastalarda uzun süreli CPR uygulanmalıdır.3 Antidotların kardiopulmoner resusitasyon esnasındaki kullanımları ile ilgili kanıt düzeyleri yeterli değildir. Vital bulguları kontrol edilen her hastaya güvenli bir damar yolu açılmalı, tanısal ve tedavisel yönetim sürecinde kullanılmak üzere kan örneği alınmalıdır. Her hastaya ilk 10 dakika içinde 12 derivasyonlu EKG çekimi yapılarak ayrıntılı ritm analizi yapılmalıdır. Uzun QRS varlığı , QT aralığı (Bazett formülü) ve Na kanal blokajı (QRS>100ms avR'de R>3mm, R/S>0.7) değerlendirilmelidir. Semptomatik bradikardi, taşikardi, hipotansiyon yönetiminde toksinin etki mekanizmasına ve neden olduğu komplikasyonlara yönelik tedavi yönetimi planlanmalıdır. Varsa spesifik antidotal tedaviler gözden geçirilmeli yoksa standart İKYD algoritmasına uygun şekilde hastaya destek tedavisi verilmelidir. Hipotansiyonun altta yatan mekanizmasını aydınlatmak için yatakbaşı USG ile birlikte kardiyak fonksiyonlar değerlendirilmeli, varsa toksine özgü antidotal tedaviler uygulanmalıdır ve ek olarak sıvı, vazopressör ya da inotrop ajan desteği sağlanmalıdır.2 Kardiyovasküler stabilizasyonu bozma ihtimali yüksek olan toksin maruziyetinde (Kalsiyum kanal blokörü, beta blokör ve diğer antiaritmik ajanlar gibi) erken dönemde ECMO uygulanabilen merkeze sevki planlanmalı ve mevcut farmakoterapiye (destek+antidotal tedavi) yanıt alınamayan kritik hastalar kardiak arrest olmadan önce mümkünse ECMO'ya bağlanmalıdır. 3. Toksikolojik Öykü ve Fizik Muayene: Toksikolojide anamnez alınırken toksine ait “Ne? Ne kadar? Ne zaman? Ne amaçla? Hangi yolla maruz kalındı?” gibi soruların cevapları aydınlatılmaya çalışılmalıdır. Zehirlenen hastanın bilinç durumunda bozulma olduğunda ve öz-kıyım amaçlı başvurularda anamnez güvenilirliği yeterli olmamaktadır. Bu nedenle öykü bilgileri aile, yakın çevre, hastayı getiren sağlık ekipleri, hastane kayıtları,

Le benzodiazepine, quelle che comunemente si chiamano ansiolitici o sonniferi, sono una classe di farmaci dotata di un alto potenziale di pericolosità rispetto a dipendenza ed abuso. È in corso un'epidemia silenziosa e poco visibile di persone che dipendono ed abusano di farmaci ansiolitici ed ipnotici. Spesso queste persone non sono consapevoli di questo loro disagio e anche i loro famigliari non sanno come gestire la situazione.Vi interessano la Psichiatria e le Neuroscienze?

Many see benzo withdrawal as an epic, exhausting, never-ending battle — but what if it doesn't have to be? In the final part of this three-part series, you'll learn how to step back, get out of your own way, and let your body heal. Kindness — both to yourself and to those around you — is a hidden secret to recovery. Anger and resentment have never been a recipe for healing. And finding acceptance of your condition and compassion for all involved is the surest way to have peace and finally discover your new life on the other side. https://www.easinganxiety.com/post/managing-the-fear-of-benzo-withdrawal-part-3-bfp005Video ID: BFP005 Chapters 00:00 Introduction03:05 Q&A09:00 Feature: Managing the Fear of Benzo Withdrawal (Part 3)21:59 Moment of Peace Episode Summary Welcome to the third segment of our 3-part series on Managing the Fear of Benzo Withdrawal. This series is derived from a chapter in my book titled, “Managing the Fear,” which focuses on reducing the fear, anxiety, and stress during benzo withdrawal. Before we dive too deep into our featured topic, we will chat a bit and cover a couple of questions in our Q&A section on detox with flumazenil and which drug is the hardest to withdraw from Feature Series SERIES: Managing the Fear of Benzo Withdrawal In my opinion, fear, and the stress and anxiety related to that fear, cause more distress and more complications during withdrawal than anything else. And this fear is not some natural psychological fear. It's chemically enhanced. On top of the original anxieties we had before our dependence on benzos, we now have a damaged nervous system that can't process fear correctly. A system that can send us into a panic state — both psychologically and physiologically — at the least sign of distress. Above all, stop worrying. Worry, fear and anxiety increase all withdrawal symptoms. Many of these symptoms are actually due to anxiety and not signs of brain or nervous system damage. People who fear withdrawal have more intense symptoms than those who just take it as it comes and think positively and confidently about recovery.— Prof. Ashton, The Ashton Manual This series is broken down into three separate parts: PART 1 (https://www.easinganxiety.com/post/managing-the-fear-of-benzo-withdrawal-part-1-bfp003 )— Series Introduction— 1) Taking Responsibility for Your Own Recovery PART 2 (https://www.easinganxiety.com/post/managing-the-fear-of-benzo-withdrawal-part-2-bfp004)— 2) Keeping Positive— 3) Maintaining Mental and Physical Activity PART 3 (This Video)— 4) Having Kindness for Yourself and Others— 5) Finding Acceptance of Your Condition Episode Description Today we discuss two essential elements to maintaining a stable mindset during withdrawal: kindness and acceptance. 4) KINDNESS It may sound like a trivial suggestion, but kindness is critical to success during benzo withdrawal. Kindness to yourself. Kindness to those around you. Kindness to everyone. Anger, resentment, fear, frustration, these all are common emotions during withdrawal and expressing them can feel good — in the short-term. But the truth is, they don't help you heal. Having kindness for yourself, and for those around you trying to help you, is key to success during this difficult time. 5) ACCEPTANCE One of the best things that happened to me during withdrawal was when I found acceptance. I stopped struggling and fighting my symptoms and instead accepted my current condition. It sounds easy, but it's a difficult transition and it usually only comes with time. Most people experiencing benzo withdrawal see their recovery as a struggle. A fight. A battle of epic proportions. And it can be. They want to do everything they can to make it disappear. And if they can't make it go away, then make it as easy as possible. But the symptoms of benzo withdrawal are actually symptoms of healing. The drugs are gone, or at least reduced. All that's left is your body trying to right itself. The best thing you can do during this time is to learn to accept your condition and let your body heal.

In this episode of Tox in Ten ACMT Highlights, co-host Dr. Gillian Beauchamp sits down with Emergency Medicine Physician and Medical Toxicologist Dr. Spencer Greene to discuss the use of Flumazenil and Physostigmine.
Tox-Dogmalysis is a talk about evidence in Toxicology. It’s been said that 50% of what we learn is incorrect; we just don’t know which 50%. As the complexity of medicine increases, it is of the utmost importance for clinicians to be skeptical of old data and new data alike. Many in the FOAM community have made huge strides in busting myths that have persisted over time. However, sometimes we may declare myths busted too prematurely based on incomplete or misunderstood data. This talk will explore three topics in toxicology for which the perceived myths may actually be true, or at least not completely busted.
Tierärztliche Fakultät - Digitale Hochschulschriften der LMU - Teil 03/07
Die drei verschiedenen Midazolam -Medetomidin – Ketamin (MMK) Dosierungen 0,5 + 0,01 + 1,0 mg/kg (MMK A), 0,5 + 0,02 + 2,0 mg/kg (MMK B) und 0,5 + 0,03 + 3,0 mg/kg (MMK C), und eine etablierte Vergleichsgruppe mit 0,05 + 10,0 mg/kg Medetomidin und Ketamin (MK D) werden im Zusammenhang mit einer Studie zur Verbesserung der Maulhöhlengesundheit und Zahnsteinprophylaxe verglichen. Zusätzlich werden für die mittlere MMK-Dosierung 0,5 + 0,02 + 2,0 mg/kg zwei verschiedene Methoden zur Teilantagonisierung getestet: 0,05 mg/kg Atipamezol, subkutan (A/SC) und intravenös (A/IV), bzw. kombiniert je 0,05 mg/kg Atipamezol und Flumazenil, subkutan (AF/SC) und intravenös (AF/IV). Insgesamt wird jede der 18 Katzen acht- bis neunmal mit einer der verschiedenen Varianten nach dem Zufallsprinzip in Narkose gelegt. Zur Prämedikation bekommen alle Tiere 0,04 mg/kg Atropin fünf Minuten vorher intramuskulär verabreicht. Die Antagonisten werden nach durchschnittlich 68 ± 11 Minuten verabreicht. Um die umfangreichen Messungen in der Maulhöhle abschließen zu können, wird die Hypnose bei Bedarf mit Propofol nach Wirkung verlängert. In den MMK-Gruppen A, B und C wird eine durchschnittliche Anästhesiedauer von 30 ± 15, 45 ± 19 und 68 ± 28 Minuten erreicht. Alle Tiere sind gut relaxiert und eine Intubation ist in über 64% ohne Probleme möglich. Mit ansteigender Dosis wird ein signifikanter Abfall der Atemfrequenz beobachtet, der aber, im Zusammenhang mit venösen Blutgaswerten und der peripheren Sauerstoffsättigung betrachtet, nicht gravierend ist. Der diastolische Blutdruck steigt mit MMK signifikant an. Die Propofolgabe hat auf die Aufwachphase, auch nach Antagonisierung, keinen deutlichen Einfluss. Alle partiellen Antagonisierungsversuche zeigen im Vergleich zur Variante ohne Narkoseaufhebung nur eine Tendenz aber keine signifikante Verkürzung der Aufwachzeit, bzw. der Gesamtnarkosedauer. Die Wiedererlangung des Bewusstseins ist nach Antagonistengabe aber signifikant schneller. Exzitationen und Hyperästhesie treten in Gruppe AF/IV nicht auf, während nur in dieser Gruppe Speicheln beobachtet wird. Für eine Erhebung objektiverer Daten wie Atem- und Herz-Kreislauf Parameter während der Aufwachphase am bereits wachen Tier, wäre Telemetrie eine geeignete Messmethode. Die Kombination mit Flumazenil hat keinen signifikanten Vorteil gegenüber der alleinigen Atipamezolgabe, wobei Atipamezol subkutan in dieser Dosierung kaum Wirkung zeigt. MMK A ist trotz guter kardiovaskulärer Resultate nicht empfehlenswert. Das Verhältnis von Einschlafzeit und Narkosedauer von MMK B und C eignet sich dagegen gut, auch im Hinblick auf die kurative Praxis. Vor allem mit der Option einer Teilantagonisierung stellen diese beiden Dosierungen eine echte Alternative für kurze, bzw. wenig schmerzhafte Eingriffe (z.B. Zahnreinigung, Scheren, Röntgen, Wundversorgung etc.) zu etablierten Kombinationen dar, ohne das Tier mit einer hohen Dosis zu belasten.
