Moderate

nitrous oxide fospropofol

Applies to: nitrous oxide and fospropofol

ADJUST DOSE: Premedication with morphine (0.15 mg/kg) and nitrous oxide (67% in oxygen) has been shown to decrease maintenance infusion rates of propofol relative to infusion rates required with nonnarcotic premedication (e.g., lorazepam).

MANAGEMENT: If morphine and nitrous oxide are used as premedications, the rate of propofol infusion should be adjusted according to the patient's clinical response.
