ANEKET INJECTION 250MG/5ML is a drug that is
mainly used as an anaesthetic drug. It can be found in powdered or liquid form and especially used by veterinarians in treatment of animals. It causes temporary sedation, trance and a relaxed state of mind and body. It is used in order to conduct surgical procedures and other treatments that may cause immense pain and discomfort. The heart, lungs and other vital organs remain functioning normally even though the patient loses consciousness. Although the exact mechanism by which ANEKET INJECTION 250MG/5ML exerts its anaesthetic effect is still under investigation, it is believed to work by binding to and inhibiting N-methyl D- aspartate (NMDA) receptors. It is also believed to bind to opioid receptors, muscarinic receptors, and monoaminergic receptors. However, unlike most other oral anaesthetics, it does not bind to GABA receptors. This drug should not be used by people who suffer from glaucoma, have meningitis or a brain tumour. Let you doctor know if you suffer from any of the following condition – coronary artery disease, thyroid problems, high blood pressure, angina, or alcohol addiction. The common side effects of using ANEKET INJECTION 250MG/5ML are generally seen as the patient comes off the drug and regains consciousness. These include psychological reactions like confusion, hallucinations, drowsiness, agitation, memory loss, nausea, slurring of speech, dissociation from the body, dizziness, delirium, and inability to control eye movements or slow heartbeat.
Rotavirus Vaccine (Live Attenuated, Oral) is a
monovalent vaccine containing suspension of live rotavirus 116E prepared in Vero cells. Rotaviruses are double-stranded RNA virus of the genus Reoviridae. Rotaviruses are classified in a dual classification system based on two proteins on the surface of the virus into G and P types. Based on this nomenclature, Rotavirus 116E is classified as ® 5.0 G9P [11]. Asingle human dose of ROTAVAC is 0.5 mL containing not less than [NLT] 10 FFU [Focus Forming Unit] of live rotavirus 116E ROTAVAC should be administered as a 3-dose regimen, 4 weeks apart, beginning at 6 weeks of age. ® ROTAVAC may be co- administered with other routine childhood immunizations (i.e., Diphtheria, Tetanus and Pertussis [DTwP], Hepatitis B vaccine and Oral Polio Vaccine [OPV]). Based on recommendations from the World Health Organization (Rotavirus vaccines WHO Position Paper, January 2013 in Weekly Epidemiological Report No.5, 2013, 88, 49- 64), if the routine childhood immunizations are initiated later than 6 weeks of age and/or at a longer dose interval than 4-weeks, ® ROTAVAC can still be co-administered with DTwP. ® ROTAVAC VIALSHOULD BE FULLYTHAWED (TILLLIQUID) PRIOR TO ADMINISTRATION. ® It is recommended that infants who receive ROTAVAC as the first dose should complete the 3 dose ® ® regimen with ROTAVAC . There is no data on safety, immunogenicity or efficacy when ROTAVAC is administered interchangeably with other rotavirus vaccines. PaediatricPopulation All doses of Rotavirus vaccine should be administered to children by the age of 8 months (34 weeks) Diphtheria and Tetanus Toxoids and Pertussis Vaccine Adsorbed USP (For Pediatric Use) combines diphtheria and tetanus toxoids adsorbed with pertussis vaccine, for intramuscular use, in a sterile isotonic sodium chloride solution containing sodium phosphate buffer to control pH.

Corynebacterium diphtheriae cultures are grown in
a modified Mueller and Miller medium. 1Clostridium tetani cultures are grown in a peptone- based medium. Both toxins are detoxified with formaldehyde. The detoxified materials are separately purified by serial ammonium sulfate fractionation and diafiltration.
The pertussis vaccine component is derived
from Bordetella pertussis cultures grown on blood- free Bordet Gengou media. The pertussis organisms are harvested and inactivated with thimerosal and resuspended in physiological saline and thimerosal.
The toxoids are adsorbed
to aluminum potassium sulfate (alum). The adsorbed diphtheria and tetanus toxoids are combined with pertussis vaccine concentrate, and diluted to a final volume using sterile phosphate- buffered physiological saline. Each 0.5 mL dose contains, by assay, not more than 0.17 mg of aluminum and not more than 100 µg (0.02%) of residual formaldehyde. Thimerosal (mercury derivative) 1:10,000 is added as a preservative.
Each 0.5 mL dose is formulated to contain 6.7 Lf of
diphtheria toxoid and 5 Lf of tetanus toxoid (both toxoids induce at least 2 units of antitoxin per mL in the guinea pig potency test).
The total human immunizing dose (the first three
0.5 mL doses administered) contains an estimate of 12 units of pertussis vaccine (4 protective units per single dose). 2 The potency of the pertussis component of each lot of DTP (diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and pertussis vaccine adsorbed usp)is tested in a mouse protection test.

Ventilation mask cover the nose and mouth,
ensuring effective Non Invasive Ventilation therapy even in case of mouth breathing. Can be used with intra-arterial and intra-venous systems. A red stud is placed on the device if used for arterial purposes (for blood sampling). It provides 3-way flow (from inlet to outlet, inlet to side-port or side port to outlet) by use of the handle on the top of the stopcock to open and close lines.The device can also be used to reduce to lines down to one, for drugs/drug infusion purposes and for the attachment of extension lines. A blood sample can also be taken via the injection port.
The oxygen tube is a device used to
deliver supplemental oxygen or increased airflow to a patient or person in need of respiratory help. This device consists of a lightweight tube which on one end splits into two prongs which are placed in the nostrils and from which a mixture of air and oxygen flows. The other end of the tube is connected to an oxygen supply such as a portable oxygen generator, or a wall connection in a hospital via a flowmeter. The cannula is generally attached to the patient by way of the tube hooking around the patient's ears or by elastic head band. The earliest, and most widely used form of adult nasal cannula carries 1–5 litres of oxygen per minute. In a micro drip 60 drops = 1 ml.
Microdrip tubing always delivers 60 gtt/mL. It is
used for infusing small or very precise amounts of fluids. if you only want to give one milliliter of medicine to a patient, and you use a micro tube (for infusing) it will take 60 drops before they receive one milliliter.
Nasogastric tube: A tube that is passed through
the nose and down through the nasopharynx and esophagus into the stomach. Abbreviated NG tube. It is a flexible tube made of rubber or plastic, and it has bidirectional potential. It can be used to remove the contents of the stomach, including air, to decompress the stomach, or to remove small solid objects and fluid, such as poison, from the stomach. An NG tube can also be used to put substances into the stomach, and so it may be used to place nutrients directly into the stomach when a patient cannot take food or drink by mouth. Winged infusion set — also known as “Butterfly or scalp vein set” is a device primarily used for venipuncture. It consists of a hypodermic needle, two bilateral flexible wings, flexible small bore transparent tubing (20-35 cm long), a connector (female Leur). Sizes 8-24G (22 and 23G are most common). Scalp vein set can be used for multiple procedures in plastic surgery:
1. Saline infusion and removal from tissue
expander. 2. Penrose type tube drain in wound margins. 3. Continuous suction drain. 4. Irrigation of wound. 5. Tourniquet for finger, penis. 6. Dye injection in sinus/fistula to delineate cavity/tract. 7. Soft cover over cut K-wire used after fracture fixation of digits. 8. For venipuncture.
The most common use of scalp vein set in plastic
surgery is an infusion of saline in tissue expander [Figure 1]. It can be connected to a syringe to infuse saline without repetitive punctures to skin and port. Furthermore, it can be used to evacuate the fluid from the expander after removal from the body.
Ryle’s Tube is a Nasogastric feeding Tube
A nasogastric tube is a narrow-bore tube passed
into the stomach via the nose. It is used for short- or medium-term nutritional support, and also for aspiration of stomach contents - eg, for decompression of intestinal obstruction. The laryngoscope is a medical devices that allows doctors to examine a patient's larynx, also known as the voice box. The device helps both with diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the larynx. It consists of two parts – the blade and the handle. The handle contains the battery container, which acts as an energy source for the light source. The blades are of two varieties: Straight blade and curved blade Straight blade is used to depress the tongue whereas the curved blade pushes the epiglottis to one side to visualize the glottis. In infants, the straight blade is preferred whereas in older children (more than 8 years), the curved blade is preferred.
There are various sizes of the laryngoscope
available in different numbers e.g. 0,1,2,3,4. The numbers increases with the size of the blade.
Care has to be taken while doing laryngoscopy to
prevent injury to the oral structures especially dislocation and aspiration of the tooth. Maximum trauma is caused by utilization of upper anterior teeth or gums as a fulcrum point. Laryngoscopy is also used to pick up any foreign body in the larynx, for passing a bronchoscope / esophagoscope and also for throat packing.
The various parts of the laryngoscope are sterilized
separately. The blade is washed under running tap water with detergent giving special attention to cleaning around the light bulb and then boiled/autoclaved/gas sterilized or chemically sterilized with alcohol/glutaraldehyde. A bag valve mask, abbreviated to BVM and sometimes known by the proprietary name Ambu bag or generically as a manual resuscitator or "self-inflating bag", is a hand-held device commonly used to provide positive pressure ventilation to patients who are not breathing or not breathing adequately. The device is a required part of resuscitation kits for trained professionals in out-of-hospital settings (such as ambulance crews) and is also frequently used in hospitals as part of standard equipment found on a crash cart, in emergency rooms or other critical care settings. Underscoring the frequency and prominence of BVM use in the United States, the American Heart Association (AHA) Guidelines for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiac Care recommend that "all healthcare providers should be familiar with the use of the bag-mask device."[1] Manual resuscitators are also used within the hospital for temporary ventilation of patients dependent on mechanical ventilators when the mechanical ventilator needs to be examined for possible malfunction or when ventilator-dependent patients are transported within the hospital. Two principal types of manual resuscitators exist; one version is self-filling with air, although additional oxygen (O2) can be added but is not necessary for the device to function. The other principal type of manual resuscitator (flow-inflation) is heavily used in non- emergency applications in the operating room to ventilate patients during anesthesia induction and recovery.
