Hemadsorption: A New Therapeutic Option for Selected Cases of Bromazepam Intoxication.
Benzodiazepine ingestion is frequent in patients admitted to ICU for intoxications. Generally, a supportive approach by securing the airway, breathing, and circulation is sufficient. Flumazenil is a well-known antidote for benzodiazepines but does not influence its elimination. Following preclinical data, we applied for the first time in humans a hemadsorption filter in a patient with a bromazepam intoxication. This technique proved to be effective in eliminating bromazepam in a patient with CHILD-C cirrhosis. We conclude that hemadsorption is a viable option to reduce length of ICU stay or intubation in slow metabolizers without contraindications.
期刊介绍:
This peer-reviewed online-only journal publishes original case reports covering the entire spectrum of nephrology and dialysis, including genetic susceptibility, clinical presentation, diagnosis, treatment or prevention, toxicities of therapy, critical care, supportive care, quality-of-life and survival issues. The journal will also accept case reports dealing with the use of novel technologies, both in the arena of diagnosis and treatment. Supplementary material is welcomed.
