SCREENING AND SAFETY IN IBOGAINE PATIENTS

• CLARE WILKINS-DIRECTOR, IBOGAINE ASSOCIATION

2
STRATEGIES

• Preparation
• Develop situational attention
• Stimulate team work
• Compensate for stressful factors

3

CARE QUALITY
4

• The cardiopulmonary function the psychological
  state must be evaluated constantly

5
Objectives of the Evaluation

• Relationship between doctor-patient To be a
  comfortable experience to be aware of all
  current illness and comorbidities
• MEDICAL HISTORY and PARACLINICALS (Laboratory and
  Electrocardiogram)
• Therapeutic plan as a team
• Obtain the informed consent of the patient

6
MAIN OBJECTIVE

• SAFETY

7
SCREENING

• Contact by Phone e-mail
• Medical Exam / Para-Clinicals
• Clinical history
• Anamnesis (medical intake)
• Psychological examination
• Physical examination
• Treatment plan

8
SCREENING

• CLINICAL HISTORY
• Labor (work)
• Relatives.
• - obesity, sedentarismo
• Habits
• - alcoholism ( abstinence sydrome, liver
  disease).
• - nicotinism.
• - BZD, Opiátes, other drugs (tolerance, Sd
  abstinence).
• Allergies and adverse reactions to medicines
• Allergic reactions
• -Medicines antibiotics, NSAI,
  Antidepressants, Muscle Relaxants
  (succinilcolina),
• - Food

9
Screening

• Personal history
• Habits (alcohol, cigarettes, drugs)
• Use of medicines
• Illnesses (Cardiovascular and respiratory, UTI)
• Allergies and Cx (Surgeries)
• Pregnancy
• Acute Infections
• Family History
• HBP, Diabetes , Heart disease

10
Screening

• Illnesses that compromise
• cardiopulmonary function
• HEART FAILURE , CORONARY HEART DISEASE ,
  ARRHYTHMIAS (cardiac disorder), PULMONARY VENOUS
  THROMBOEMBOLISM, VENOUS THROMBOSIS, RENAL
  FAILURE, ACTIVE INFECTIONS, PERIPHERAL
  NEUROPATHIES, THYROTOXICOSIS

11
PHYSICAL EXAMINATION

• Cardiovascular
• Arrhythmias
• Pulses and peripheral perfusión, circulation
• Thórax
• Depth of respiratory movements and respiratory
  frequency
• Use of accesory muscles of respiration
• Respiratory sounds ( wheezing, crackles, rhonchi)
• Abdominal
• Distention
• Extremites
• Probable vascular accesses
• swelling
• Neurological
• Mental state
• March and muscular force

12
General aspect

• Color (paleness, cianosis)
• Nutritional state
• Hydration
• Mental state

13
COMPLEMENTARY TESTS

• They detect disorders not suspected by the
  clinical history
• Individualized
• LABORATORY
• ELECTROCARDIOGRAM The normality in EKG does not
  exclude coronary heart disease there are some
  abnormalities that lack relevancy in asymptomatic
  patients.

14
LABORATORY

• They must be chosen according to the medical
  condition of the patient
• Recommendations for a healthy patient
• SMAC 21 PLUS AND CBC
• WBC (infection)
• RBC Recent Hematocrito-hemoglobin (30 )
• QS (glucose,cholesterol,trig)
• TGO, TGP, GGT (liver function)
• CREATININE , BUN , UREA (RENAL FUNCTION)
• TP,TPT (study of coagulation)
• CARDIAC ENZYMES
• URINE TEST

15
ELECTROCARDIOGRAM

• ECG ( over 40 years) ?
• EVERYONE
• Dx, Tx
• Used for the detection of arrhythmias, acute
  myocardial infarction, electrolytic imbalances
  and function of the pacemaker

16
TREATMENT

• PREPARATIONS BEFORE BEGINNING

17
FASTING

• The gastric emptying of clear liquids delay 1
  hour and of solid 6 hours
• Stress, pain, anxiety and opioids delay the
  emptying

18
PREMEDICATION

• Prophylaxis for gastrointestinal symptoms
• Omeprazol (Anti-Acid, Proton Inhibitor) 20 mg
  Oral
• Meclizine Piridoxine (antiemetic) 25/50mg OA
• Metoclopramide (Anti-Emetic,Pro Kinetic)10 mg OA

19
Monitorization

• The first and most important monitor is the human
  observer
• Constant Vitals HR, Pulse, BP, Respirations.
• Medicate for nausea
• 60 minutes test dose
• 20-30 minutes full dose

20
Monitorization

• Monitor during the following 12 hours, constantly
• Initiate with BP, pulse and saturation of O2
• Note down pulse and saturation of oxygen first 4
  hours every 30 minutes and check BP depending on
  clinical judgment
• Later, every 1hr up to completing 12 hours
• Check BP every 8 hrs up to finishing treatment

21
MONITOR CONSTANTLY

• Ventilation
• Oximetry (saturation)
• A saturation of 90 can mean a Pao2 of 65 mm
  Hg.
• To be trustworthy it needs a good peripheral
  perfusión
• pulse
• BP

22
Monitorization

• Check for abstinence symptoms
• Rhinorrea, piloerection, mydriasis, yawning,
  lacrimation, tremors, hot or cold flashes,
  restlessness , vomiting, abdominal cramps,
  anxiety and muscle twitches
