Calcium Chloride |
1 gram over 5-10 min 4-20mg/kg pedi 10% 20mg/kg during CPR Electrolyte, Membrane stabilizer Positive inotrope increase force of contraction Hyperkalemia, Calcium channel blocker OD, Mag Sulfate OD Hypermagnesemia, Hypocalcemia Contra: Digitalis, vfib during CPR For hyperkalemia, the influx of calcium helps restore the normal gradient between threshold potential and resting membrane potential. Calcium chloride increases the force of myocardial contraction; calcium may either increase or decrease systemic vascular resistance. In normal hearts, calcium's positive inotropic and vaso-constricting effects produce a predictable rise in systemic areterial pressure. |
