Pupil Dilation (Mydriasis): Atropine sulfate is commonly used as eye drops to dilate the pupils for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes. It helps in examining the interior of the eye and treating certain eye conditions such as uveitis or inflammation.
Cardiac Arrest: In emergency medicine, atropine may be administered intravenously to treat symptomatic bradycardia (slow heart rate) or to help reverse cholinergic effects in cases of organophosphate poisoning.
Anesthesia: Atropine is sometimes used in anesthesia to reduce secretions in the respiratory tract and to prevent bradycardia caused by certain anesthetic agents.
Gastrointestinal Disorders: Atropine can be used to decrease gastric secretions and motility in the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders such as peptic ulcers or irritable bowel syndrome.
Respiratory Disorders: In some cases, atropine may be used to reduce respiratory secretions and bronchial spasms associated with conditions like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or asthma.
Bradycardia: Atropine sulfate can increase heart rate by blocking the parasympathetic nervous system, making it useful in treating symptomatic bradycardia.
Pre-Anesthetic Medication: Atropine may be administered before surgery as a pre-anesthetic medication to reduce salivation and respiratory secretions and to prevent bradycardia during anesthesia.
Insecticide Poisoning: Atropine can be used as an antidote in cases of poisoning by certain insecticides, such as organophosphates, which inhibit acetylcholinesterase and lead to excessive accumulation of acetylcholine.
Side Effects: Common side effects of atropine sulfate include dry mouth, blurred vision, photophobia, tachycardia, urinary retention, constipation, and flushing. These effects are due to its anticholinergic activity.
Contraindications: Atropine sulfate should be used with caution in individuals with certain medical conditions such as glaucoma, prostatic hypertrophy, urinary retention, tachyarrhythmias, or hypersensitivity to anticholinergic drugs.
Pediatric Use: Atropine may be used in pediatric patients for certain indications, but dosage adjustments are necessary due to differences in body weight and metabolism.
Elderly Population: Elderly patients may be more sensitive to the effects of atropine sulfate, particularly its anticholinergic side effects such as confusion, agitation, or urinary retention.
We extend modifiers to include items that changes the parent and child taxa. I.e. for a species, that would be the genus that is belongs to and the strains in the species.
A higher number indicates impact on more bacteria associated with the condition and confidence on the impact.
We have X bacteria high and Y low reported. We find that the modifier reduces some and increases other of these two groups. We just tally: X|reduces + Y|Increase = Positive β X|increases + Y|decrease = Negative.
Benefit Ratio:
Numbers above 0 have increasing positive effect.
Numbers below 0 have increasing negative effect.
