what are the BZD for treatment of SE
midazolam
lorazepam
diazepam
what is the IV and continuous dose of midazolam
IV: 0.2mg/kg
continous: 0.1mg/kg/hr
what are the routes that midazolam can be given
intramuscular
intranasal
buccal
what are the doses for diazepam
rectal: 0.2mg/kg
IV: 0.25 mg/kg
what is the BZD of choice and why
lorazepam because it has a duration of 8-12 hours giving you enough time to get other agents on board
what is the dose of lorazepam
0.1mg/kg IV
what are the SE of BZD
hypotension
-due to lorazepam and diazepam vehile proprylene glycol

anterograde amnesia
paradoxical reaction
cardiorespiratory depression
what is the dose of phenytoin
20mg/kg
-if pt still seizing can give additional 10mg/kg

free levels 1-2
total levels 10-20
what SE drug is highly protein bound
phenytoin, this is an issue because most ICU patients have low albumin therefore you may see them with a low total but a high free which may be toxic
what must phenytoin be given with
0.9% NaCl to prevent it from precipitating out
what are the SE of phenytoin
hypotention (due to propylene glycol)
arrhythmias
purple glove syndrome (due to extravasation since propylene gylcol is very tocix)
what is the dose of fosphenytoin
20mg PE/kg
max infusion rate of 150 mg PE/min
how can fosphenytoin be administered
IV
IM
what line agent is levetiracetam
3rd line
what is the dose of levetiracetam
1000-3000 mg
what is the loading dose and infusion rate of valproate
loading dose 15-45 mg/kg
infusion rate of 2-6 mg/kg/min
can you use phenobarbitals in a pt who got treated with BZD
yes they both work at GABAa but phenobarbital work at a different site
what is the dose of phenobarbital
20mg/kg IV
may repeat 20mg/kg IV then 10 mg/kg IV

@ 100mg/min
what are patients who previously received BZD at risk of when they are given Phenobarbitals
apnea
hypoapnea
what is the infusion rate of phenobarbitals
100mg/min eventhough they contain propylene glycol
where does Propofol bind
GABAa Rc at diff location than BZD
what is the main SE of propofol
propofol infusion syndrome (metabolic acidosis, cardiac failure, renal failure)

remember it is diluted with 10% lipids when doing TPN
what is the loading and maintenance dose of propofol
load: 2mg/kg IV bolus
maintenance 5-10mg/kg/hr
what drug is neuroprotective
ketamine
what drug becomes more effective the longer SE occurs
ketamine
what is the max dose rate of ketamine
5mg/kg/hr
what drugs can be used for burst suppression
inhaled anesthetics
pentobarbital
what is the SE of topiramate
metabolic acidosis
JANE HAS 3 SEIZURES THAT LAST 9 MINUTES WHAT SHOULD YOU GIVE HER
iv lorazepam repeat if no response in 5 mins

first 0-10 mins
JANE HAS 3 SEIZURES THAT LAST 15 MINUTES WHAT SHOULD YOU GIVE HER
1st 10 min: Lorazepam 4mg then repeat in 5 min
10-30 min: IV phenytoin 10mg/kg @ 50mg/min
or
fosphenytoin 20mg/kg @ 100mg/min
what is done in 0-10 mins of SE
IV lorazepam 4mg may repeat if no response in 5 mins
what is done in 10-30 mins of SE
IV phenytoin 10 mg/kg @ 50mg/min
IV fosphenytoin 20 mg/kg @ 150mg/min PE
what is done in 30-60 mins of SE
additional IV 5mg dose of IV phenytoin or fosphenytoin'
or
IV phenobarbital 20mg/kg at rate of 100mg/min
