no one used this phrase "propofol overdose" . Did you read anywhere in the toxicology report the word 'overdose' ? no ,beside what an investigator stated in the search warrant , the medical specialists did not use this expression.
"concentrations during an abdominal surgery" true , concentrations not AMOUNTS , big difference . No cumulative effect , everything above the average induction dose (50+mg) would result in such high concentrations.
what do you mean by propofol overdose? can you give an estimation of overdose?
an average dose could end your life , could be fatal but it's not really an overdose.
acute intoxication is not always the RESULT of an overdose , MJ died because
under those NORMAL concentrations he should have been intubated and his vital signs should have been monitored , that's how propofol works .
finally, did the prosecutors even use this HUGE word in their argument or questioning? No , speaks volume .
thank you, this subject was discussed before here , acute meant rapid against chronic .
intoxication , usually for a drug to cause intoxication the dose would be large (overdose) , but propofol causes intoxication at average doses , your system shuts down at normal doses when the equipment is not available to monitor and revive. That's what it means.
the prosecutors said " you are incompetent you did this you did that ...etc" but never once they claimed he was given TOO MUCH , who said MJ was swimming in propofol ? Drew Pinsky? lol

yeah acute is an important word here imo. acute in the medical worls means quick and short doesnt it. ie that goes with the od of diprivan given quickly through a bolus
