Popis: | Heroin detoxification by anesthesia-assisted rapid opiate detoxification (AAROD) can be achieved in approximately 1 hour using intravenous administration of midazolam, propofol, and naloxone. Opiate dependence and detoxification techniques are reviewed. Important aspects of patient care and perianesthesia nursing are described using a case study. To assist in caring for the patient undergoing anesthesia-assisted rapid opiate detoxification, the perianesthesia nurse should understand the methodology and controversy of this new procedure. |
