What are the clinical applications of sodium nitroprusside in anesthesia and acute cardiac conditions?
This review discusses the clinical applications of sodium nitroprusside for deliberate hypotension during anesthesia and the management of acute cardiac conditions.
Sodium nitroprusside has its place in two main spheres of medical practice. It is used for the production of deliberate hypotension during anaesthesia to reduce surgical bleeding, and in the management of the acute phase of certain cardiac conditions. This paper considers the value of the drug separately in these two clinical situations.
