[The use of doxapram chlorohydrate (t-doxapril) as an anti-shivering drug].
Following a brief review of the main causes of anaesthetic shock, reference is made to the results obtained with the use of a well-known analeptic: doxapram chlorohydrate, as an anti-shock drug. Using a continuous venous perfusion technique, practically no side-effects were encountered, while the effectiveness of the drug was of undoubted interest (75% of cases). The hypothesis of the anti-shock action remains open.
