Levcromakalim provokes an acute rapid-onset migraine-like phenotype without inducing cortical spreading depolarization
ConclusionsSingle LVC administration induced the fastest manifestation and recovery of acute migraine-like phenotype which was not mediated by CSD waves in the cerebral cortex. We suppose LVC triggered rapid-onset migraine-like symptoms are probably related to functional alterations in the trigeminal nociceptive system and K+ channel opening properties of LVC. Understanding the neurobiological mechanisms of this nociceptive window, may provide a novel target in migraine treatment.

Potassium Chloride-Induced Phlebitis via a Malpositioned Central Venous Catheter
We present a case of potassium chloride-induced phlebitis with severe, burning, left-sided chest pain when infused via a malpositioned central venous catheter. Using a malpositioned central venous catheter requires careful consideration, but this novel case prompts the need for additional review before its use for the infusion of potentially irritating medications.PMID:37295882 | DOI:10.1016/j.chest.2023.01.035

How one mom headed off a drug shortage
Early this year, even before the national shortage of infant formula or a demand-driven shortfall of pain medications for kids, children's hospitals began to worry about looming shortages of two critical medications for premature infants: sodium chloride and potassium chloride.

Intraamniotic digoxin administration versus intracardiac or funic potassium chloride administration to induce foetal demise before termination of pregnancy: a prospective study
This study aimed to compare the success of intraamniotic digoxin, intracardiac potassium chloride (KCl), and funic KCl in achieving foetal asystole and discuss procedural difficulties for physicians and clinical outcomes. This prospective observational study included 124 patients who received foeticide at 22-31 weeks of gestation. All procedures were performed transabdominally, and 1 mg of intraamniotic digoxin, funic KCl, or intracardiac KCl was administered. Procedure times, procedural difficulty scores, patient pain scores, decrease in haematocrit levels, induction and hospitalisation times, and the presence of chorioam...

A Case of Possible Levetiracetam Induced Aseptic Meningitis vs Viral Meningitis
DISCUSSION: In 2018, McDonald et al documented the first case of probable levetiracetam-related antiepileptic induced meningitis (AEIM). The mainstay of treatment is discontinuing the offending agent. Resolution of symptoms is typically 2 to 3 days after drug discontinuation as seen in this patient case report. Symptomatic resolution within days of stopping the suspected offending drug has been observed in all reported cases of AEIM where 1 to 2 weeks is generally seen with viral meningitis. Applying the Naranjo Scale yields a score of 4, which indicates possible levetiracetam-induced meningitis in this adult patient. Prov...
