Propofol, IV's and Pharmacologists
I've never been a court TV fanatic. However, this time around, I find yellow journalism peaking my interest as it relates to what we have been learning so far this semester. I only find it funny that they used a IV infusion setup and description as part of the prosecutor's cross examination of the toxicologist.
The evidence today highlighted
Anderson identified a host of powerful prescription drugs in Michael Jackson’s blood, including the sedative propofol and other anesthetics.
The toxicology report indicates the following six drugs were detected in Jackson’s system:
Propofol (Diprivan)
Lidocaine
Diazepam (Valium)
Lorezepam (Ativan)
Midazolam (Versed)
Ephedrine
Now CNN is looking at bringing the pharmacologist in to testify on the mechanism of action of propofol and its metabolism. Who knows maybe they will use Ttrissel's IV compatibility charts and Micromedex. Imagine that.

15 Inspirational Steve Jobs Quotes
There is not a day where I don't type on my macbook pro or crank out tunes on my ipod in between classes, bike rides and workouts. With every fingertip to the keyboard, picture to my photobooth and the thousands of mp3s in my iTunes libary, we each carry on Steve Job's vision in how to revolutionize our own spheres within the world.
As part of a business management course, I took a look at Innovation and Sustainability course under Dr. Eppel in 2008. It was during this time I developed an infinite respect for Jobs, Google founders and even Web 2.0 developers and was first exposed TED and the Job's Stanford commencement speech. His innovation along with other revolutionaries became my avenue of play to experience the design of shared knowledge of sustainability business.
Rest In Peace Steve Jobs

Michael Jackson Propofol Expert, Dr. Barry Friedberg, to Speak in Veracruz
I'd like to take this time to thank Dr. Friedberg for writing my letter of recommendation for my pharmacy school application. I really wouldn't be where I am today.
The most notable posting by Dr. Friedberg is on the CNN blog where he states,
September 29th, 2011 8:32 am ET
"The fundamental problem with everything Murray did after he entered Jackson's bedroom is that Jackson had already been dead for an irretrievable time.
The window to save the brain's life after oxygen deprivation only extends for 3-5 minutes in adults at normal body temperature.
The critical issue is not the 'lethal' dose of propofol but Murray's failure to repsond to Jackson's drop in oxygen level that would have been indicated by a dropping pulse oximeter tone. No such 'lethal' propofol dose exists when breathing & oxygenation are monitored & appropriate intervention occurs when the tone of the pulse oximeter drops.
The defense contention that Murray had a pulse oximeter without a functioning alarm is ludicrous. The 'alarm' in every pulse oximeter is the drop in tone when the oxygen level drops... long before the body runs out of oxygen.
The critical issue is the failure to monitor Jackson's breathing & intervene before the loss of oxygen caused his hear to stop & his brain to die."
Recently, Dr. Friedberg has been in the spotlight during the Michael Jackson death lawsuit as seen here
1045/1745 GMT: Outside the court, Barry Friedberg, a 62-year-old anesthesiologist, accuses Murray of being "a sociopath" who was not adaquetely monitoring Jackson.
"Leaving Jackson, who desperately wanted to sleep and was desperately asking for propofol, is like leaving a pyromaniac in a room packed with matches," Friedberg says.
Also on comments on ABC's News Website, Dr. Friedberg states

Sadly, Jackson had been dead for some time before Murray even returned to the bedroom. The adult brain @ body temperature, dies after only 3-5 minutes without oxygen.
Propofol is only lethal when breathing is not monitored & appropriate intervention does not occur when the oxygen levels begin to drop… long before cardiac arrest occurs.
By failing to monitor Jackson’s breathing, Murray’s 46 minute phone call allowed for many opportunities for that 3-5 minute interval to occur.
Everything Murray did after his return to the bedroom was calculated to make Murray appear like the conscientious physician he clearly is not.
Read ‘Getting Over Going Under.’ Jackson is only the most famous American to die from anesthesia over-medication.
