[Diazepam (valium) in premedication. Experimental findings].

The anxiolytic and analgesic effects of 10 mg of orally administered diazepam (Valium) were assessed on 10 volunteers. The electrodermal activity was recorded during two experimental sessions while cutaneous electrical stimulations were administered to the subjects. On one hand, the anxiolytic activity of diazepam could be observed by a decrease of both autonomic nervous system and anticipatory activities. On the other hand, an increase of the pain threshold could be shown under diazepam by lower responses to the stimulations. These results confirm that diazepam can be useful in anxious patients undergoing dental procedures.

[Holter's ECG monitoring in esophagogastroduodenoscopy. Premedication with tiropramide. Preliminary notes].

Endoscopy of the upper digestive tract with flexible instruments is presently a safe, widely used technique in gastrointestinal pathology. Some cases of changes in cardiac rhythm, ventricular fibrillation, ischaemia and cardiac arrest, have, however, been observed during EGDS. The incidence of arrhythmias during EGDS in 41 patients, monitored during the examination with Holter's ECG, has been observed. The results obtained confirm that EGDS does not bring noteworthy cardiovascular changes sufficient to suspend the examination. The absence of parasympathicomimetic effects makes it possible to consider thyropramide one of the drugs of choice in medication before EGDS.
