Initial results of a clinical trial of Fluosol-DA 20 percent in acute cerebral ischemia. 1983

K W Swann, and A H Ropper, and N T Zervas

We present three patients in whom Fluosol-DA 20 percent was administered in the presence of ischemic cerebral vascular disease. While transient improvement observed in two cases may have been related to Fluosol-DA administration it is premature to use these results to comment on the potential protective or therapeutic efficacy of Fluosol-DA in ischemic cerebral vascular disease. One patient progressively deteriorated neurologically during and after the infusion. Our initial impressions are limited to the observations that Fluosol-DA in doses of 20 ml/kg can be administered easily and without major effects on hemodynamic or pulmonary function. One patient had a transient leukopenia.

This concept includes fluorocarbon emulsions, and fluorocarbon blood substitutes. Perfluorinated and related polyfluorinated chemicals are referred to as PFAS and are defined as chemicals with at least two adjacent carbon atoms, where one carbon is fully fluorinated and the other is at least partially fluorinated.
