Subject: metubin use in a 1994 Alcor case 
Date: Wed, 1 Oct 2003 16:44:13 +0100

This from Eugen Leitl was in response to the FUD message on metubin use in a
1994 Alcor case -- very reminiscent of Dora Kent.

"Following placement of temperature probes, an IV was  established
in  the medial foreleg vein and a drip of Lactated Ringer's was  begun
to  maintain  the  patency of the IV and  support  circulating  volume
during  surgery. Premedication (prior to perfusion) consisted of  the
IV  administration of 1 mg/kg of metubine iodide to inhibit  shivering
during  external  and  extracorporeal cooling  and  420  IU/kg  sodium
heparin  as  an anticoagulent.  Two 0.77 mm I.D.  Argyle  Medicut  15"
Sentinel line catheters with Pharmaseal K-69 stopcocks attached to the
luer fittings of the catheters were placed in the right femoral artery
and vein.  The catheters were connected to Gould Model P23Db  pressure
transducers   and  arterial  and  venous  pressures   were   monitored
throughout the course of perfusion."

He asked me to post it as he doesn't currently have a cryonet subscription.
