  • Title: [Premedication with valoron (Tilidin) in internal laparoscopy].
    Author: Meyer-Burg VJ, Palme G.
    Journal: Fortschr Med; 1976 Jan 15; 94(2):91-4. PubMed ID: 133978.
    Abstract:
    Apart from sufficient experience on the part of the examining physician and adequate technical apparatus, proper premedication can facilitate the procedures for both patient and physician considerably. The paper reports on experience gained in 500 laparoscopies carried out under conditions which were deviated slightly from those hitherto recommended in the literature. The analgesic employed was Tilidine (in Germany: Valoron), and Diazepam was used as a sedative; both of these substances were given intravenously, the vein was kept open for the entire course of the examination. The Tilidine dose was normally 50-100 mg, but under exceptional circumstances as much as 150 mg. Tilidine showed good analgesic effectiveness and tolerance; no case or nausea or vomiting and no sign of respiratory depression of effects on smooth muscle were observed under the conditions stated. The fact that Tilidine is not subject to the restrictions imposed by the German narcotics law is also seen as an advantage. The Diazepam dose was 5-30 mg. Apart from its sedative effect Diazepam also diminishes the tonus of skeletal muscle (important in laparoscopy) and has a relatively long time of elimination (20-48 h). In addition to these two substances, 10-20 ccm of 1% Lidocaine solution with Epinephrine additive was given as a local anaesthetic. The investigators' experience with the above premedication procedure was found to be convincingly positive.
