Cisatracurium Dose

A

Induction dosing: 0.1 mg/kg

18
Q

Cisatracurium Onset and DOA

A

Onset: 4 minutes
DOA: 60 minutes

19
Q

Cisatracurium Metabolism

A

Hofmann elimination (75%) and nonspecific esterase hydrolysis (25%)

20
Q

Cisatracurium Active Metabolite

A

Laudanosine metabolite, which is a CNS stimulant

20% less laudanosine is produced when compared to atracurium

21
Q

Cisatracurium Excretion

A

Eliminated by the kidneys

22
Q

Cisatracurium Special Considerations

A

Hofmann elimination is a temperature- and pH-dependent break- down of the drug molecule.
