We have never used a pentobarb coma. I know there is some information about conscious sedation using versed in palliative care. In the almost 12 years of our program in the acute care hospital the most dramatic we have needed to be is using scheduled phenobarb for sedation. You might check with a couple of drug companies that are developing products. Wyeth has developed the Relistor for opioid induced constipation and Adolor has developed Intereg for some post-op bowel resection implications. You might also check out the PalliativeDrugs.com list serve. Sharol Herr, RN, MSEd, CHPN; Nurse Clinician/Education Coordinator; Mount Carmel Health Palliative Care Leadership Center; Columbus, Ohio.
