“…With this dose umbilical artery levels are much lower than the umbilical venous levels. 40,41 Therefore; as anticipated, the preferred thiopental dose (2 mg/kg) in our study did not lower the Apgar scores of the newborns either at 1 st or 5 th minutes.…”

“…In the fi rst month of life, the dose of thiopental is 45 % less than it is in older infants 1-6 months of age, probably attributable to the reduced protein binding, more permeable blood-brain barrier, and increased brain sensitivity to thiopental [ 150 ]. However, the elimination halflife of thiopental in neonates exceeds 14 h, 2.5-fold greater than midazolam [ 152 ]. When administered with succinylcholine, thiopental increases the success rate and shortens the time interval to tracheal intubation [ 128 ].…”

“…The duration of diazepam-induced hypnosis at night surpasses that of midazolam, especially due to the presence of several active metabolites, such as desmethyldiazepam. In NB, midazolam has a halflife of 6.3 h, and thiopental, 14.7h [65][66][67] .…”
