Rekomendasi Test Dose - 2
• Techniques in adults and children are similar.
• Of prime importance is to evaluate the effects on ECG tracings of a
test dose containing epinephrine (0.1 mL/kg up to 3 mL
containing 0.5-1 μg/kg of epinephrine) for 30 to 60 seconds.
• Any elevation of ST segment or increase in T-wave amplitude,
followed by an increase in blood pressure but only occasionally by
tachycardia, suggests inadvertent intravenous injection and
necessitates cessation of the procedure
• When epinephrine is contraindicated, isoproterenol 0.05 to 0.1 μg/kg
should be used instead
