Gene Information
General description
Etomidate is an imidazole derivative, which functions as an nonbarbiturate hypnotic agent. It is used in speech and memory test. Etomidate regulates hemodynamic stability by preserving sympathetic outflow and autonomic reflexes. It inhibits adrenal steroidogenesis.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Etomidate is a general anesthetic; potentiates GABAA transmission
Etomidate is a general anesthetic; potentiates GABAA transmission. The possible neuroprotective effect of etomidate against streptozotocin-induced (STZ-induced) hyperglycaemia were investigated in the rat brain and spinal cord. Etomidate treatment demonstrated neuroprotective effect on the neuronal tissue against the diabetic oxidative damage

Retrospective analyses of several trials suggest etomidate may be unsafe for intubation in patients with sepsis. We evaluated the association of etomidate and mortality in a large cohort of septic patients to determine if single-dose etomidate was associated with increased

Etomidate is an imidazole-derived hypnotic agent preferentially used for rapid sequence induction of anaesthesia because of its favourable haemodynamic profile. However, 11β-hydroxylase inhibition causes adrenal insufficiency with potentially fatal consequences in specific populations. We review the arguments against the liberal
