In this episode, we explore Oxytocin and Vasopressin's vast roles in Human Biology. We time travel to cover the evolution of the two molecules and learn about their functions with developing and socializing. Oxytocin and Vasopressin are dynamic molecules whereby they are Peptides and Hormones. In addition, we cover previously discussed brain regions and how the molecules work alongside key Neuromodulators like Serotonin and Dopamine.Social Reward https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6214365/Social Reward Requires Oxytocin and Serotonin in Nucleus Accumbens (Parvo Path) https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4091761/Magnocellular and Parvocellular social Information Processing https://www.cell.com/neuron/fulltext/S0896-6273(20)30770-4?_returnURL=https%3A%2F%2Flinkinghub.elsevier.com%2Fretrieve%2Fpii%2FS0896627320307704%3Fshowall%3DtrueMagnocellular and Parvocellular https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jne.12284Meta-Analysis of Intranasal https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?term=intranasal+oxytocin+autism&sort=pubdate&filter=pubt.meta-analysishttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33400920/Intranasal Review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38579916/(0:00) Intro; Oxytocin and Vasopressin; Episode Objectives(2:46) Oxytocin and Vasopressin; 700 million year time travel (Phylogeny)(4:12) Peptides and Hormones; Modes of Transmission- Endocrine, Paracrine, Synaptic(6:35) Proteins and Peptides; Amino Acids and Aromatic Amino Acids and Light(8:58) Magnocellular and Parvocellular(12:33) Roles of Oxytocin and Vasopressin and connections to various Brain Regions(22:20) Scientific Literatures(27:12) Oxytocin and Serotonin; 1) Reward Processing, 2) Fear Response, 3) Social-Emotional Processing(30:07) Oxytocin and Dopamine(31:08) Dopamine Receptors(31:37) GABA(33:57) Intranasal Oxytocin(36:08) Take aways from Intranasal Literature(37:24) Biggest Take Away (Magnocellular versus Parvocellular and Intranasal Administration)email: info.fromthespectrum@gmail.com
Dr. Thomas Chen, Founder, CEO, and CSO of NeOnc Technologies, is working on the challenge of delivering drugs across the blood-brain barrier by using an intranasal delivery approach to target brain cancers. This delivery platform leverages the cranial nerve to transport the drugs directly to the brain, bypassing the blood-brain barrier. Genomic analysis of the long-surviving patients in the phase one trial revealed a common genetic mutation, informing the trial design for the next phase. Thomas explains, "So our platform is what we call intranasal delivery. And with the intranasal delivery, we're not trying to cross the blood-brain barrier. We're trying to cross over it. And how we're doing that is doing the delivery of the drug via what we call the C nerves. Now the cranial nerves are, we have 12 cranial nerves in our brain. These cranial nerves have various functions, but the cranial nerves involved with the nasal brain delivery are the first and the fifth cranial nerves. The first cranial nerve is what we call the olfactory nerve. That's the nerve that's responsible for smell. The fifth cranial nerve is called the trigeminal nerve, which involves facial sensation and allows us to chew." "So what happens is that when we want to deliver the drug to the brain cancer, we have the patient inhale it. When the patient inhales, it goes through the nose, and through the olfactory nerve, it goes to the brain. Usually, that molecule then absorbs in the spinal brain and then circulates to the target, in this case, brain cancer. Now you know how powerful that cranial nerve is from the standpoint of what it does when you smell something, that scent, that odor gets transported from the olfactory nerve to our brain. And that's basically what we're doing. We're taking something external to the brain, allowing the cranial nerve to absorb and transport it to the brain." #NeOnc #BloodBrainBarrier #BBB #BrainCancer #DrugDelivery neonc.com Download the transcript here

Send us a text“If that medicine is associated with fear of an injection, then we are giving the impression that a diagnosis of food allergy is worse than a life sentence.” — Dr. Paul TurnerWhen it comes to managing anaphylaxis, epinephrine is the gold standard. But even with its life-saving potential, misconceptions abound, and newer delivery methods like nasal and sublingual formulations are raising questions for allergists and patients alike. In this episode, Dr. Mariam Hanna sits down with Dr. Paul Turner, pediatric allergist, clinical immunologist, and global expert on anaphylaxis, to explore the science, controversies, and clinical realities surrounding epinephrine use.On this episode:Anaphylaxis demystified: Why the "ABC" symptoms (airway, breathing, circulation) are crucial for timely diagnosis.Epinephrine explained: How it works, why timing matters, and when it's not enough.Alternative delivery methods: Intranasal and sublingual epinephrine—why Dr. Turner is skeptical about their use in clinical practice without robust evidence of efficacy.When epi fails: Understanding the limitations of autoinjectors in severe reactions and the role of IV infusions.Improving patient confidence: Strategies for addressing fears and teaching appropriate use to improve outcomes.Whether you're an allergist navigating these evolving treatment landscapes or a clinician seeking clear guidance for patient care, this episode provides critical insights and practical advice.

What is the impact of central insulin on muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) and vascular conductance in the absence of peripheral insulin delivery? Listen as Associate Editor Dr. Jason Carter (Baylor University) interviews authors Neil McMillan and Dr. Jackie Limberg (both at University of Missouri), along with expert Dr. Manda Keller-Ross (University of Minnesota), about the new Short Report by McMillan et al. To gain a better understanding of the central sympathoexcitatory effects of insulin in humans, the authors recruited two groups of young, healthy individuals. One group served as a time control and the other group received intranasal insulin administration. McMillan et al. measured MSNA from the fibular nerve, combined with continuous monitoring of blood pressure and leg blood flow, before and after insulin administration. Limberg, McMillan and co-authors found that only the individuals who received insulin exhibited an increase in efferent sympathetic nervous system activity, which was coupled with peripheral vasoconstriction and increases in arterial blood pressure. How does this research influence our mechanistic understanding of the sympathetic and hemodynamic response to insulin? Listen now to find out. Neil J. McMillan, Dain W.

Contributor: Taylor Lynch, MD Educational Pearls: Opioid Epidemic- quick facts Drug overdoses, primarily driven by opioids, have become the leading cause of accidental death in the U.S. for individuals aged 18-45. In 2021, opioids were involved in nearly 75% of all drug overdose deaths The rise of synthetic opioids like fentanyl, which is much more potent than heroin or prescription opioids, has played a major role in the increase in overdose deaths What is Narcan AKA Naloxone? Competitive opioid antagonist. It sits on the receptor but doesn't activate it. When do we give Narcan? Respiratory rate less than 8-10 breaths per minute Should you check the pupils? An opioid overdose classically presents with pinpoint pupils BUT… Hypercapnia from bradypnea can normalize the pupils Taking other drugs at the same time like cocaine or meth can counteract the pupillary effects Basilar stroke could also cause small pupils, so don't anchor on an opioid overdose How does Narcan affect the body? Relatively safe even if the patient is not experiencing an opioid overdose. So when in doubt, give the Narcan. What if the patient is opioid naive and overdosing? Use a large dose given that this patient is unlikely to withdraw 0.4-2 mg every 3-5 minutes What if the patient is a chronic opioid user Use a smaller dose such as 0.04-0.4 mg to avoid precipitated withdrawal How fast does Narcan work? Given intravenously (IV), onset is 1-2 min Given intranasal (IN), onset is 3-4 min Given intramuscularly (IM), onset is ~6 min Duration of action is 60 mins, with a range of 20-90 minutes How does that compare to the duration of action of common opioids? Heroine lasts 60 min Fentanyl lasts 30-60 min, depending on route Carfentanyl lasts ~5 hrs Methadone lasts 12-24 hrs So we really need to be conscious about redosing How do you monitor someone treated with Narcan? Pay close attention to the end-tidal CO2 to ensure that are ventilating appropriately Be cautious with giving O2 as it might mask hypoventilation Watch the respiratory rate Give Narcan as needed Observe for at least 2-4 hours after the last Narcan dose Larger the dose, longer the observation period Who gets a drip? If they have gotten ~3 doses, time to start the drip Start at 2/3rds last effective wake-up dose Complications Flash pulm edema 0.2-3.6% complication rate Might be from the catecholamine surge from abrupt wake-up Might also be from large inspiratory effort against a partially closed glottis which creates too much negative pressure Treat with BIPAP if awake and intubation if not awake Should you give Narcan in cardiac arrest? Short answer no. During ACLS you take over breathing for the patient and that is pretty much the only way that Narcan can help Just focus on high quality CPR References https://nida.nih.gov/research-topics/trends-statistics/overdose-death-rates#:~:text=Drug%20overdose%20deaths%20involving%20prescription,of%20deaths%20declined%20to%2014%2C716.

MERCK ANIMAL HEALTH Optimizing Vaccine Efficacy In Animal Health: Best Practices & Considerations Vaccines play a crucial role in safeguarding animal health by bolstering their immune systems against various pathogens. Understanding proper storage, handling, and administration of vaccines is essential to ensure their effectiveness. Key Points: 1. Importance of Vaccines: Vaccines are preventive tools designed to prepare an animal's immune system to combat diseases caused by bacteria, viruses, or protozoa. 2. Proper Handling and Storage: Deviations from label instructions regarding storage, transportation, and handling can compromise vaccine efficacy. Vaccines should be stored in refrigerators maintaining optimal temperatures. 3. Factors Affecting Efficacy: Nutritional deficiencies, environmental stressors, and preexisting health conditions can influence an animal's response to vaccination. 4. Administration Best Practices: Proper reconstitution, mixing, and administration techniques are crucial for vaccine effectiveness. 5. Herd Veterinarian Guidance: Tailoring vaccination programs to specific herd needs and consulting with a veterinarian ensures optimal protection. 6. Vaccine Types and Revaccination: Understanding differences between modified live virus (MLV) and killed virus (KV) vaccines and adhering to recommended revaccination schedules are vital. 7. Calfhood Vaccination Programs: Initiating comprehensive vaccination programs early in a calf's life, especially during pre weaning stages, is essential for disease prevention. 8. Essential Components: Commonly included vaccines protect against respiratory diseases and clostridial infections, but specific vaccine decisions should be made with veterinary consultation. 9. Heifer Vaccination: Vaccination programs for replacement heifers should mirror those for mature cows, with consideration for reproductive diseases. 10. Pre Breeding and Pre Calving Vaccinations: Timing and selection of vaccines are critical to ensure adequate immunity transfer and protection for newborn calves. 11. Bull Vaccination: Bulls should receive similar vaccines as the cow herd, with exceptions such as brucellosis vaccination. Effective vaccine utilization requires adherence to proper storage, handling, and administration practices, along with tailored vaccination programs guided by veterinary expertise. By implementing these strategies, livestock producers can enhance animal health and productivity while mitigating disease risks.

COW COUNTRY NEWS USDA Finalizes Voluntary “Product Of USA” Labeling Rule USDA Secretary Tom Vilsack on Monday announced the finalization of a rule to align the voluntary “Product of the USA” label claim with consumer expectations of what the claim means. The designation allows the voluntary “Product of USA” or “Made in the USA” label claim to be used on meat, poultry and egg products only when they come from animals born, raised, slaughtered and processed in the United States. The final rule aims to prohibit misleading U.S. origin labeling in the marketplace and helps ensure that the information that consumers receive about where their food comes from is based on facts. The labels will continue to maintain their voluntary status for use on products and also will be eligible for generic label approval, which removes the need for pre-approval by USDA, but requires manufacturers to maintain documentation to support the claim. Last summer, the country of origin labeling rules (COOL), as they were proposed, covering meat, poultry and egg products, were criticized by the Canadian government and the National Pork Producers Council because they included specific regulations on where the animals were raised, which were not part of earlier versions of the rule. Companies that use the “Made in the USA” claim will need to comply with the final rule by Jan. 1, 2026, but are being encouraged to do so as soon as possible. The National Cattlemen's Beef Association's Executive Director of Government Affairs Kent Bacus released the following statement on the USDA's finalized rule on the "Product of USA" label by saying, “NCBA has been committed to finding solutions to this problem ever since a producer-led NCBA working group raised the alarm, years ago, that imported beef could be mislabeled as a Product of the USA incorrectly at the end of the supply chain. We appreciate USDA's effort to address this loophole. During the implementation period, NCBA's focus will remain on ensuring that these changes result in the opportunity for producer premiums while remaining trade compliant.” UPCOMING BULL SALES ANGUS CHAROLAIS HEREFORD GELBVIEH BALANCER RED ANGUS SIMMENTAL SIMANGUS Weber Land & Cattle: March 12, 2024, Lake Benton, Minnesota Sundsbak Farms: March 16, 2024, Des Lacs, North Dakota Hidden Angus: March 17, 2024, Sebeka, Minnesota Wheatland Cattle Company: March 21, 2024, Bienfait, Saskatchewan, Canada Miller Angus Farms: March 25, 2024, Watertown, South Dakota L 83 Ranch: March 26, 2024, Mandan, ND Vollmer Angus Ranch: April 2, 2024, Wing, North Dakota A & B Cattle: April 4, 2024, Bassett, Nebraska Montgomery Ranch: April 14, 2024, Carrington, North Dakota Jorgensen Farms: April 15, 2024, Ideal, South Dakota BULL SALE REPORT & RESULTS Churchill Cattle Company Van Newkirk Herefords Gardiner Angus Ranch Cow Camp Ranch Jungels Shorthorn Farms Ellingson Angus Edgar Brothers Angus Schaff Angus Valley Prairie Hills Gelbvieh Clear Springs Cattle Company CK Cattle Mrnak Hereford Ranch Frey Angus Ranch Hoffmann Angus Farms Topp Herefords River Creek Farms Upstream Ranch Gustin's Diamond D Gelbvieh Schiefelbein Farms Wasem Red Angus Raven Angus Krebs Ranch Yon Family Farms Chestnut Angus Eichacker Simmentals & JK Angus Windy Creek Cattle Company Pedersen Broken Heart Ranch Mar Mac Farms Warner Beef Genetics Arda Farms & Freeway Angus Leland Red Angus & Koester Red Angus Fast - Dohrmann - Strommen RBM Livestock Weber Land & Cattle FEATURING Dr. Tim Parks, D.V.M.

Join the movement through initiatives like the SPARK program, fostering collaboration and hope for a brighter future in autism care.
In our latest episode, we venture into the heart of cardiology innovation, exploring groundbreaking studies that are reshaping how we approach common cardiovascular conditions. STUDY #1: Our journey begins with a Lancet paper that looks at a potential alternative for treating supraventricular tachycardias (SVTs). Imagine a world where the distress of SVTs can be alleviated without ablation, a rush to the emergency department or the complexities of intravenous therapy. An intranasal medication might be the key, offering a beacon of hope for patients seeking simpler, yet effective solutions. But how effective is this approach, and what does it mean for the future of SVT management? Stambler, BS, Camm, AJ, Alings, M, et al. 2023. Self-administered intranasal etripamil using a symptom-prompted, repeat-dose regimen for atrioventricular-nodal-dependent supraventricular tachycardia (RAPID): A multicentre, randomized trial. Lancet. 10396: 118–128. (https://doi.org/10.1016/S0140-6736(23)00776-6) STUDY #2: Transitioning to the realm of antiplatelet therapy, we confront the longstanding question of P2Y12 inhibitors versus aspirin. Will these new findings tilt the balance and shift our approach to secondary coronary prevention? The nuances of this study prompt a deeper reflection on patient-centric care and the economics of new-generation medications. Gragnano, F, Cao, D, Pirondini, L, et al. 2023. P2Y12 inhibitor or aspirin monotherapy for secondary prevention of coronary events. J Am Coll Cardiol. 2: 89–105. (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jacc.2023.04.051) STUDY #3: Lastly, we explore the potential of bempedoic acid in the landscape of cholesterol management, particularly for patients who are intolerant to statins. With cardiovascular diseases looming as a pervasive threat, the quest for alternative treatments is critical. We see if bempedoic acid could play a potential role in reducing major cardiovascular events, either alongside, or perhaps in lieu of, traditional statin therapy. Nissen, SE, Menon, V, Nicholls, SJ, et al. 2023. Bempedoic acid for primary prevention of cardiovascular events in statin-intolerant patients. JAMA. 2: 131–140. (https://doi.org/10.1001/jama.2023.9696) Kazi, DS. 2023. Bempedoic acid for high-risk primary prevention of cardiovascular disease: Not a statin substitute but a good plan B. JAMA. 2: 123–125. (https://doi.org/10.1001/jama.2023.9854) Each study we discuss brings its own set of questions, implications, and possibilities for the future of cardiology. From the practicalities of new drug administrations to the cost and effectiveness of established therapies, this episode will get you up to speed!

Neurons are cells that contain mitochondria. Photobiomodulation energizes neuronal mitochondria, triggering a cascade of beneficial cellular functions. Potential benefits are neuroprotective effects, self-repair mechanisms and enhanced functionality. Vielight's patented intranasal stimulation technology and microchip LED technology is an innovative tool for brain photobiomodulation developed by Vielight. My guest today is Vielight's CEO Dr. Lew Lim. Intranasal photobiomodulation is the most efficient method for light energy to reach the brain. Different from electrical and magnetic stimulation, photobiomodulation uses light energy (or photons) of specific wave lengths and power density to simulate cellular function. Vagus Neuro Duo The Vielight Neuro Duo is is the result of years of engineering and research. Clinical research with our technology has produced improvements in cognition, memory and blood flow. The Vielight Neuro Duo comes with both Alpha and Gamma modes. Gamma (40Hz): focus, memory, brain energy.Alpha (10 Hz): relaxation and sleep improvement. Vagus Device Recently introduced is Vielight's Vagus device which enables non-invasive stimulation of the vagus nerve (VNS) via photobiomodulation (PBM). This device was engineered to enhance brain-gut connectivity. For more information visit: https://www.vielight.com Enter Coupon Code healing4me to claim a 10% discount.
People living with sickle cell disease can experience severe “pain crises”, or vaso-occlusive episodes (VOE), and are at increased risk for infections, strokes, heart failure, and other serious disease processes. In this 3 part series, we're talking with experts to learn more about sickle cell disease and its complications and how we can best advocate for and treat these patients in the ED. In part 1, we delved into assessment and management of patients presenting with VOE. In this episode, we focus specifically on kids presenting with VOE. We know these patients have usually exhausted their home pain control options and are still in excruciating pain when they arrive in the ED. We interviewed Dr. Chris Rees about his recent paper on the benefits of treating kids with VOE with an initial dose of intranasal fentanyl. The results are pretty impressive! Stay tuned for Part 3 of our series where we'll explore the management of other emergent presentations related to sickle cell disease! Did this episode change your practice?

In this podcast episode, epileptologists Aatif Husain, MD, and John Stern, MD, have a conversation about rescue therapies and how they fit into the spectrum of epilepsy management. Their discussion begins with sharing what they consider the utility of rescue therapies to be in the overall spectrum of epilepsy. As the conversation goes on, they address the role of rescue therapies in more specific patient populations, such as the newly diagnosed patient, a patient experiencing seizure clusters, and patients who may be experiencing either very few or relatively many breakthrough seizure events. In all scenarios, the experts relate the use of rescue therapies as “insurance”—hoping that the agents don't have to be used, but having them available as coverage in the worst-case scenario. The podcast goes on to discuss rescue therapies in terms of available routes and mechanisms of action and practical strategies for talking to patients about these agents. Rounding out the episode, Drs Husain and Stern express their hopes for future developments in epilepsy management.Presenters:Aatif Husain, MDProfessorDivision of Epilepsy, Sleep and Clinical NeurophysiologyDepartment of NeurologyDuke University Medical CenterDurham, North CarolinaJohn Stern, MDProfessorNeurologyGeffen School of Medicine, UCLADirectorEpilepsy Clinical ProgramUCLA Department of NeurologyLos Angeles, CaliforniaThis content is based on a CE/CME program supported by an independent educational grant from Neurelis, Inc.For additional activities in this program, visit https://bit.ly/3GiLlu4.

What are some of the major differences between intravenous or IV ketamine and intranasal esketamine? How are you building on these research findings and what associated avenues have been explored? In this episode, we interview the poster winner from last year's NEI Congress, Dr. Balwinder Singh on his research comparing intravenous ketamine and intranasal esketamine. The study, conducted at Mayo Clinic rendered interesting findings that may be important for clinicians. Dr. Balwinder Singh is a Consultant and Assistant professor in the Department of Psychiatry at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. He is a psychiatrist specializing in mood disorders, and his research is focused on novel treatments for treatment-resistant depression and identifying biomarkers for ketamine response. He is also involved in the ketamine and esketamine clinic practice at the Mayo Clinic Depression Center. This is one of the first studies to highlight a faster response to intravenous ketamine as compared to intranasal esketamine in an observational study.

Contributor: Aaron Lessen, MD Educational Pearls: Intranasal medication administration is a convenient, quick, and relatively painless option for pediatric patients Often used as an initial medication to help control pain in children prior to establishing an IV Using an atomizer is preferred when administering intranasal medications The syringe should be angled towards the ipsilateral eye or occiput rather than straight upwards Do not administer more than 1 mL of fluid per nostril as volumes greater than 1 mL are not sufficiently absorbed Intranasal medication doses differ from the traditional IV dosages and have a slower onset of action References Del Pizzo J, Callahan JM.

EMS A to Z: Journal Club – Intranasal Midazolam for Pediatric Seizures Show Notes: From your hosts, Dr. Josh Gaither, Dr. Amber Rice, and Dr. Rachel Munn Pediatric Seizures: According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, epilepsy affects up to 1% of children. It's location dependent, but pediatric EMS calls can make up about 13% of our calls, with 5 – 8 % of those being for seizures. https://www.acep.org/how-we-serve/sections/quality-improvement--patient-safety/newsletters/february-2016/pediatric-seizure-management-in-the-out-of-hospital-environment/ Recognizing and rapidly treating pediatric seizures or status epilepticus can decrease the morbidity associated with this disease process. What are the best medication and route to treat pediatric seizure? In our system and administrative guidelines, we are currently using IM midazolam as our first line medication. This decision was informed largely by the RAMPART What are the other therapeutic options out there? IV, IM, IN, buccal midazolam IV or PR diazepam IV lorazepam What is the new study we're discussing today? Whitfield D, Bosson N, Kaji AH, Gausche-Hill M. The Effectiveness of Intranasal Midazolam for the Treatment of Prehospital Pediatric Seizures: A Non-inferiority Study. Prehosp Emerg Care. 2021 Mar 29:1-9. doi: 10.1080/10903127.2021.1897197. Epub ahead of print. PMID: 33656973. Study details: This was a retrospective study looking at IN vs IM/IV midazolam and whether or not redosing of benzodiazepine was required in the prehospital setting. >2,000 patients with a median age of 6 years were evaluated in the study. 25% vs 14% of patients receiving IN vs IV/IM/IO midazolam required re-dosing. While it is tempting to say that IN midazolam just isn't as effective for seizure control as the other routes, we must consider that the dose used was only 0.1mg/kg for all routes, whereas in other studies evaluating IN midazolam, a 0.2mg/kg dose was used. Perhaps the dose was just too small. Additionally, the outcome measured wasn't a true patient centered outcome and we do not have follow up data on the patients' hospital courses, etc.
In this first episode of the Society for Pediatric Sedation (SPS) Podcast, we will be discussing the use of intranasal medication in procedural sedation for children. We will be joined by Dr. Carmen Sulton, the Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at Emory University School of Medicine and Director of Children Sedation Services at Egleston campus in Atlanta. Dr. Sulton is well published in the field of pediatric procedural sedation including a recent paper on the use of intranasal Dexmedetomidine published in Pediatric Emergency Care in 2020. The paper uses patient outcomes data from the Pediatric Sedation Research Consortium database, the research arm of the Society for Pediatric Sedation.In our case today, we have a five months old infant who requires an MRI of his brain. The patient is an ex-32 week premature infant with a history of difficult IV access. There's no history of upper respiratory tract infection, no snoring, heart disease, or any medication allergy in this infant. The MRI is needed for a focal seizure that occured two weeks ago and the patient doesn't require an IV since this is not a contrasted MRI. Dr. Sulton will generously share with us why intranasal medications are needed in procedural sedation and so much more, so don't miss out if this is a topic of interest for you.Meet your hosts:Pradip Kamat, MD, MBA - Associate Professor of Pediatrics and Critical Care Physician at Emory University School of Medicine and Children's Healthcare of Atlanta/Egleston.Anne Stormorken, MD - Professor of Pediatrics and Critical Care Physician at UH Rainbow Babies and Children's Hospital and Case Western Reserve School of Medicine of Cleveland, OH.Show HighlightsDiving into how intranasal medications work (01:58)Circumstances where intranasal medications must not be used for procedural sedation (04:35)How she uses Dexmedetomidine and Midazolam (06:28)Research findings on the success rate with the use of intranasal medications (09:14)Other medications that can be used intranasally for procedural sedation (11:42)Optimizing the efficacy of intranasal medications when delivering them (12:09)Giving IV sedation where there is intranasal medication failure (13:23)Large dataset studies that support the successful use of intranasal medications in procedural sedation (14:23)Additional ResourcesThe Use of Intranasal Dexmedetomidine and Midazolam for Sedated Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Children
