Clinical Trial Summary

Nefopam may help blunt thermoregulatory defenses, thus facilitating induction of therapeutic hypothermia


Clinical Trial Description

Hypothermia, whether therapeutically induced or unintentional, triggers thermoregulatory defenses including vasoconstriction and shivering. Nefopam, a non-opioid, nonsteroidal centrally acting analgesic, has an opioid-sparing effect and anti-shivering potency without sedation, making it an ideal candidate to counteract thermoregulatory shivering.

Since complete compartmental pharmacokinetics (PK) are lacking this prospective, randomized, double-blind study in 8 volunteers was set to investigate the PK of arterial nefopam samples with non-linear mixed effect modelling. A two compartment mammillary model independent of covariates was found to describe the data best and could be implemented to drive automated pumps, achieving and maintaining a desired plasma concentration. ;
