How will be administered propranalol intravenously?

Answer 1

I really do not understand exactly what you mean by the wording of the question but let me try to answer it best I can. Propranolol has been getting a beating since Michael Jackson's death but administered properly it is a wonderful anesthetic. Fifteen years ago I was in a severe car wreak and I was entabated (a tube down your esophagus to make you breathe) for five days. That was the worst five days of my life. Now fast-forward to 2009. I had an empyema in my lung which is a buildup in my lung. Usually doctors can put a chest tube in your lung and drain it. Mine was so severe it had already collapsed a lung and I needed emergency surgery. I knew I would be entabated again so I begged my mother (who thank God was a nurse who worked at that hospital) to please tell the doctors to keep me knocked out while I was on a respirator. Almost four days later I woke up. I was not groggy and I do not remember being on a respirator at all. My mom came in and I asked her what they had me on? See told me it was propranolol. She said it was given through my i.v. and the only time I woke up is when a bubble formed in my line. I woke up and she tapped my line which popped the bubble and when right back out. Propranolol, like everything, is a wonderful drug if you don't abuse it. Hope that helped.
