The first time I had to hang this gtt was last night on shift and hadn't seen it before, so I looked it up. I watch your videos before each shift to learn something new and get in the right mindset and it's wild that this video popped up. Great videos man, keep up the good work! Cheers
I've been an RN for 18 years, last week was the first time I've ever managed an Esmolol gtt.... then I see this pop up not long after. Crazy... right on time!
I work on stepdown and my hospital does not admin it on my unit. So I needed education on Esmolol so when I move on different hospital I’m not clueless. Thanks
I had surgery a few days ago. Looking at my chart I see I was given esmolol, lidocaine pf, and neo-synephrine. Idk what that means or why I was given those meds. 👀 Opinions anyone?
Eddie - why use esmolol over nebivolol? Is it due to the liquid nature of esmolol so it can be given as an infusion? If that's the case then why not use metoprolol tartrate, which also comes in a liquid form?
Esmolol can be titrated quickly as a drip, ideal for a labile pt. Metoprolol lingers too long with a mean half-life of 3-4 hours, it is ideal for IVP, with fast onset of action and can easily be transitioned to an oral dosage for ongoing care. Esmolol is exclusive to critical care. nebivolol (Bystolic) as you said is PO, very rare to see in ICU, typically only used to return a pt to their home regiment.

Cool!
Do you titrate up or down to get a lower blood pressure?
Are you able to do a video on Haldol?
Let me see if I have that on the todo list. If not, I'll add it.
Thank for the video, Esmolol, a selective b1 antagonist
You got it!
What about contraindictation to use in patients with alpha stimulation e.g. pheo? Would this not potentially lead to hypertensive crisis?
