SCCM Resource Library-Neuroscience Section Year in Review 2022 Pharmacotherapy Update

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video transcript is a presentation given by Eljam Tesoro, a clinical pharmacist, at the neuroscience section year in review. The presentation focuses on three articles related to pharmacotherapy in neurocritically ill patients. The first article discusses the potential use of milrinone in treating vasospasm in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage patients. The second article examines the safety and efficacy of peripherally administered 23.4% sodium chloride for treating cerebral edema and elevated intracranial pressures. The third article compares the use of clavitopine and nicartopine for blood pressure control in intracranial hemorrhage patients. The findings suggest that milrinone, peripherally administered sodium chloride, and both clavitopine and nicartopine can be effective in improving patient outcomes in specific neurocritical care scenarios. However, some caution is advised due to the limitations of the studies mentioned.
