The Use of Oral Phenobarbital Loading for the Management of Alcohol Withdrawal Syndrome in an Outpatient Setting: A Case Report.
J Addict Med
December 2024
From the Department of Academic Family Medicine, College of Medicine, University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada (EH); and Department of Emergency Medicine, College of Medicine, University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada (BB).
Alcohol withdrawal syndrome is most frequently treated with benzodiazepines, but due to their short half-life, tapering prescriptions are frequently required for outpatients, which presents challenges to both clinicians and patients. Our local health system has had significant success treating alcohol withdrawal in the emergency department with phenobarbital loading doses. As patients also present in alcohol withdrawal to our outpatient addictions clinic, we have adapted our emergency department intravenous protocol to a staggered, oral loading protocol for the treatment of mild and moderate alcohol withdrawal syndrome in the community setting.

New invertebrate trace fossils from the Lower Jurassic Moenave Formation at the St. George Dinosaur Discovery Site at Johnson Farm (SGDS) continue to expand the ichnofauna at the site. A previously unstudied arthropod locomotory trace, SGDS 1290, comprises two widely spaced, thick, gently undulating paramedial impressions flanked externally by small, tapered to elongate tracks with a staggered to alternating arrangement.

Background: Taper is considered as a strategy to avoid overtraining and increase peak performance in athletes. Because aerobic exercise increases the level and duration of independence during the lifespan, the participation of recreational athletes has increased in running events around the world. However, the effects of using load reduction in their training and aerobic performance are still not well known.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFWe present the design of a horizontally staggered lightguide solar concentrator with lateral displacement tracking for high concentration applications. This solar concentrator consists of an array of telecentric primary concentrators, a horizontally staggered lightguide layer, and a vertically tapered lightguide layer. The primary concentrator is realized by two plano-aspheric lenses with lateral movement and maintains a high F-number over an angle range of ±23.
