Corporate Advisory Insight: REIT - 184 sec
Alana Hartley from Thomson Reuters' Corporate Advisory Services group discusses REIT Transcript: Quite often we hear about REITs being traded on the stock exchange, or included in mutual funds. But what, exactly is a REIT?? My name is Alana Hartley, and today I'm going to explain to you about REITs. R-E-I-T is the acronym for "Real Estate Investment Trust". According to NAREIT, the definition of a REIT is... A company that owns operates income-producing real estate. There are some REITs that finance real estate. To be a Public REIT, a company must distribute at least 90 percent of its taxable income to shareholders in the form of annual dividends. The REIT vehicle has become an important portion of the investment markets. There are at least five benefits as to why REITs have grown in popularity by policy-makers and investors alike in the U.S... Diversification Dividends Liquidity Performance, and Transparency The U.S. REIT Market has seen its equity market capitalization skyrocket from 90 billion dollars to more than 300 billion dollars in just the past 10 years. During that period, that growth has set the stage for the adoption of the "REIT approach" to "securitized real estate investment" across the globe. There are three different types of Public REITs: Equity, Mortgage, and Hybrid. Equity REITs own assets; Mortgage REITs own debt; and Hybrid REITs own both. Most companies invest in a specific property type...including Retail, Office, Apartment, Warehouse, and Hotel. A REIT is the tax designation for a corporation investing in real estate. This tax designation reduces or even eliminates corporate income taxes. As stated before, REITs are required to distribute 90% of its income. The returns are in annual dividend form, which may be taxable in the hands of investors. Originally created by Congress in the 1960's, REITs were designated to make investments in commercial real estate accessible to all investors in the same way they typically invest otherwise. This is done through the purchase and sale of liquid securities, without being taxed on two separate levels. There are many stipulations that a company must abide by in order to file under the REIT tax status. Four of the most important policies are: (1) 95% of its income must be derived from dividends, interest, and property income, (2) dividends must be paid on at least 90% of the REIT's taxable income, (3) the firm must make sure at least 75% of total investment assets are in real estate and (4) the firm must derive at least 75% of gross income from rents or mortgage interest. In sum, investing in REITs is a liquid, dividend-paying means of participating in the real estate market. I'm Alana Hartley and this is Corporate Advisory Insight. ¬

Corporate Advisory Insight: Program Trading - 159 sec
Hallie Elsner from Thomson Reuters' Corporate Advisory Services group discusses Program Trading. Transcript: As computers continue to become more and more integrated into our daily lives, many decisions that would have been made by us are now left up to technology. Take the example of online retailers, many of which suggest products to users based on the user's previous purchases. In this case, computers are using algorithms developed through back testing to make an educated guess as to what the customer may be interested in. This trend has been growing consistently, as innovations and improvements in technology appear at an astounding rate. The same principle has been extended to the financial world as well. Hi, I'm Hallie Elsner, and today we will be discussing program trading. Every day on Wall Street computers trade large blocks of stock triggered only by an algorithm, or an advanced mathematical equation, developed to provide guidance and make trading decisions in the markets. These trades are called "program trades", and they occur in significant volume and with great frequency, accounting for nearly 30% of the volume of the NYSE. Additionally, the use of algorithms in trading allows investors to obtain the best possible prices without significantly affecting the stock price or increasing purchasing costs. The human element is not completely ignored in program trading. While computers are relied upon to initiate trades when market conditions meet a certain level, the underlying strategy behind a program buy or sell is often not computer -- generated. The algorithms themselves vary dramatically for different portfolios in order to accommodate the goals and targets set by asset managers and brokers. Because each algorithm is unique to each player, it is considered a trade secret to the firm and therefore is closely guarded. Algorithmic trading is a close relative to program trading and has been more prevalent recently. This type of trade occurs when a computer program takes a large order, breaks it up into small blocks of typically 100-300 shares, and gradually submits these pieces to the market. The goal is to complete the order without other market participants realizing that a large trade is in progress. Despite such efforts, program trading can cause prices to fluctuate wildly. Deep sell-offs and rallies in the major indices can be attributed to program trading, which tends to focus primarily on companies within the three broader indices. However, program trading also provides a tremendous amount of liquidity to the market and therefore contributes to an efficient marketplace. Program trades account for a large amount of market activity and therefore should be regarded accordingly. Savvy investors should be aware of the ability of program trades to move markets when making investment decisions. I'm Hallie Elsner and this is Corporate Advisory Insight.

Corporate Advisory Insight: Corn - 251 sec
John Dieser from Thomson Reuters' Corporate Advisory Services group discusses corn. Transcript: Corn is the most widely produced feed grain in the United States, accounting for more than 90% of total production. Used in everything from tortillas to whiskey, corn is the number one food ingredient, and consumers are paying the price of higher corn costs. The U.S. produces more corn on an annual basis than the rest of world's top ten corn producers combined. Estimates for 2008 show that 86 million acres in the US are set to harvest corn. So why are corn prices skyrocketing? I am John Dieser for Corporate Advisory Insight to discuss this topic. Not only is corn a staple in food production, but it is also a commodity that is being diverted to create ethanol fuel. The ethanol sector has grown substantially from a cottage industry to a hearty source of renewable fuels. With this growth comes a tremendous increase in demand for corn. Ethanol represents a significant market for U.S. corn, consuming more than 2.3 billion bushels in 2007 to produce 6.5 billion gallons of renewable fuel. In addition, flood waters in the Midwest have either destroyed or delayed millions of acres of corn, causing a ramp-up in world food prices. Farm and business losses due to the flooding are expected to be in the billions of dollars. The U.S. Department of Agriculture estimated that 43% of this year's crop is in fair to very poor condition. These factors account in part for the increase in corn, wheat and soybean prices that we've seen recently, just to name a few. Over the past several weeks, corn futures have reached upwards of $7.30/bushel. Compare this to 2005, when corn prices averaged $2.52/bushel. Also, due to a shift towards planting more corn acreage by farmers in order to reap the benefits of the escalating corn prices, supply/demand methodology would predict falling corn prices and increasing soybean prices. Unfortunately, only the latter is true as corn supply continues to be used up for ethanol production, while the decreasing acreage devoted towards soybeans is now driving prices up as well. Soybeans futures are now up almost 200% in the last 5 years. How important is the price of corn to the overall economy? As corn prices rise, agricultural companies stand to benefit as their corn or corn seeds command a higher price on the market. Archer Daniels Midland (ADM) and Bunge (BG) are examples of growers of that are benefiting from the bull market in corn. Their products reap a higher price on the market. Similarly, Monsanto (MON) and DuPont (DD) produce genetically engineered seed specifically targeted towards ethanol production. In an environment such as the current one, these products fetch a premium. Conversely, companies who buy corn or derivative products can be hurt considerably by higher prices. Hormel Foods (HRL) and Tyson Foods (TSN) are examples of food products companies that are hurt as prices rise because higher corn prices equate to higher feed costs for livestock. Coca-Cola (K) and Pepsico (PEP) also get squeezed as corn is a main ingredient in syrup for soda and various snacks. These companies don't absorb all of that cost themselves, though - much of it is passed on to the consumer. Consumer food prices have been rising at a 6.3% seasonally adjusted annual rate this year. Earlier in the decade, food prices rose at an average 2.5% annual rate. What does this mean? When there are cost shocks in the food production system due to changes in the commodity or farm product market, most retailers respond by passing on a fraction of their higher costs to consumers. An increase in the price for meat, poultry, eggs, milk, fresh fruit, and fresh vegetables is one consequence that we have seen. While higher corn prices are helping some, many companies and most consumers are paying dearly, and the economy is struggling to stay afloat. So it seems that corn is in fact affecting our daily lives. I am John Dieser and this is Corporate Advisory Insight.

Corporate Advisory Insight: 144As - 230 sec
Arzu Cevik from Thomson Reuters' Corporate Advisory Services group discusses the world of 144As. Transcript: The 144A Revolution Hello, I'm Arzu Cevik and welcome to this week's strategic research presentation, dedicated to the world of 144As......... Raising capital has become a major challenge for many companies but the 144A market remains a major lifeline between the U.S. capital market and issuers around the world. Non-U.S. companies can also trade in this market via Global Depository Receipts (GDRs). Rule 144A was adopted by the SEC in order to increase the efficiency and liquidity of the U.S. market for securities listed in private placements. There are a number of key features. Once placed with eligible investors, they cannot be sold in the U.S, public market for at least 2 years. 144A securities can only be bought by Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIBs) who do not need to register their shares. Each QIB must have at least $100m in assets under management and Finally, Each 144A security must have no more than 500 QIBs as shareholders. As for the benefits, when it comes to raising capital, the 144A market is both faster and cheaper compared to U.S. public markets. While an IPO can take around 25 weeks to complete, a 144A listing can be accomplished in just 10 weeks. Meanwhile, companies like to use the 144A market as a stock valuation tool before embarking on an Initial Public Offering. The other key benefit is the ability to trade without being subject to Sarbanes-Oxley and SEC disclosure and regulation. In today's environment, many observers have indicated that the cost burden has now overshadowed the financial benefits of regulation. Our analysis of the non-U.S. component of the 144A market over the last five years suggests that- •The total value of equity raised has more than doubled to $5.5bn in 2007 from $2.3bn in 2003 (with $11.7bn raised in 2006). •On a regional level, GDRs from Central & Eastern Europe (mostly Russian) dominated activity (68%) in 2007. Over a five year period, North Asia had the highest average (48%). •Over the years, there has been a shift in demand from North Asia (mostly from Korea & Taiwan) to Central & Eastern Europe. •Sector analysis suggests that in 2007, the real estate sector dominated activity (31%), followed by banks (30%). Over a five year period, TMT had the highest average (21%). closely followed by banks (16%). The 144A market is undoubtedly growing in popularity. This can be attributed to onerous Sarbanes-Oxley legislation, resulting in higher regulatory costs and litigation risk for those companies who wish to raise capital from the U.S. public market. Consequently, the number of foreign company delistings has more than doubled from 12 in 1997 (representing just 3.9% of all foreign listed companies) to 30 in 2006 (6.6% of all foreign listed companies). Finally, confidence in the 144A market has been expressed by the major underwriters who have addressed the issue of insufficient pricing and liquidity fragmentation with the development of their own trading systems. Furthermore, there has been consolidation between NASDAQ and 12 investment banks under a "Portal Alliance" umbrella, with the goal of developing an industry standard facility in order to serve the market for 144A securities. For more information about 144As, please contact your CAS representative. Thanks and have a great day.

Corporate Advisory Insight: Making Sense of Subprime Part 1 - 178 sec
Phil Abram from Thomson Financial's Corporate Advisory Services group discusses the subprime situation. Transcript: Bubbles bursting; credit crunching; 2007 was the year subprime slammed the markets. I'm Phil Abram, bringing you Thomson Financial's "Making Sense of Subprime." The word subprime is tossed around casual finance conversations all the time these days, but what does it actually mean and why should you care? Simply put, a subprime mortgage is a loan that's issued to borrowers with a higher-than-average risk of defaulting on payments. In exchange for taking on the added risk, lenders charge higher interest rates on these loans than they do for conventional mortgages. Borrowers pay the higher rates because they have no other option, while for the lender; higher risk yields a higher return. In order to stimulate the economy in 2001, the U.S. Federal Reserve cut interest rates to their lowest levels since the 1960s. With these cuts, the price borrowers paid for home loans decreased creating high demand for homes in the U.S. While yields on loans dropped, lenders, at the same time, offered mortgages with extended amortization periods and adjustable rates with the expectation that higher rates later would subsidize lower rates now. The problem was the artificial confidence that the bull market created in the minds of borrowers. From 1996 to 2006, the share of subprime mortgages to total home loan originations rose from 9% to 20%. Misguided borrowers mistakenly opened adjustable lines of credit and continuously refinanced their mortgages believing that the run would continue and their homes would only increase in value. Instead, rates began to rise and home values started to fall in 2006 leaving borrowers unable to make payments and lenders stuck with property worth less than the loan. Defaults and foreclosures have risen to such a level that in October of 2007, 16% of subprime loans with adjustable rate mortgages were 90 days delinquent or in foreclosure, triple the number of defaults at the same time two years earlier. By January of 2008, that number rose further to 21%. But how does trouble between homeowners and mortgage lenders find its way directly onto Wall Street? The answer is through mortgage backed securities and CDOs. Lenders began packaging risky mortgages into investment grade securities traded between banks, corporations, hedge funds and other investors, and most of which were given triple A ratings. Now, once the bubble burst and borrowers defaulted, those investors were left with billions of dollars of securities with little or no value. As of January 25, 2008, major U.S. banks and other financial institutions reported roughly $130 billion in subprime related write-downs. Investors then backed away from buying commercial paper altogether and corporations ultimately found themselves without a source to raise capital and balance sheets riddled with worthless short term investments. The economic trickle down from there is simple. Corporations are forced to close segments or cut jobs, the cuts create unemployment, unemployment hinders spending, and slow spending pressures the entire economy. That's all for now, but for more, stay tuned for the next installment of our series "Making sense of Subprime."

Corporate Advisory Insight: Crisis Communications - 244 sec
Arzu Cevik from Thomson Reuters' Corporate Advisory Services group discusses Crisis Communications for Public Relations Professionals. Transcript: Given the number of lawsuits companies face and how quickly bad news travels, public relations teams have their hands full. I'm Arzu Cevik with Thomson Reuters and today, we're discussing Crisis Communications for Public Relations Professionals. So what's the best way for a PR team to handle a crisis? Every situation is different but there are some general guidelines to follow: 1. BE PROACTIVE. Don't wait until a crisis hits in order to develop a framework for a response. Internal knowledge -- get to know key people in each department so if you're faced with a particular crisis, you'll know who to get in touch with as soon as possible. This is especially true of senior management. You want to understand how management thinks and how they might respond in a crisis. External contacts - Build relationships with print and web publications. This will make getting the company's message out easier in times of a crisis. Practice -- Role playing is an important strategic tool many companies use to determine the appropriate response. Delegate -- While it's important to have control of a situation, time is important and having a responsible team in place to share the burden will help expedite things. Have team members in place that have media experience (and can be camera ready), have good writers on hand to draft press releases and other media tidbits and prepare admin staff to handle the field questions by phone and help conduct outreach. AFTER A CRISIS HITS - What should PR teams do? First, 1) Understand the scope of the problem. Bee able to quantify it in terms of customers or dollar impact in a way that's easy to understand. 2) Consult with management and converse with other experts that are familiar with the crisis. For example, if a crisis were to occur at a particular facility, it makes sense to talk with that facility's manager. 3) Talk to legal to discuss what should or should not be said. 4) When drafting a response, keep it simple and consistent. 5) One message - Convey the message to employees. This is important if employees are dealing with clients and customers. Keep the number of individuals talking to the media to a minimum and maintain consistency. 6) Anticipate any responses especially the difficult questions and draft potential questions. It's a good idea to review with legal. Getting your message across: 1) Speakers should not discuss anything off the record... This prevents people going off message and staying on point. 2) Practice Q&A internally with management and legal. 3) Make sure any communication is simple and consistent. 4) It's okay to say no or I can't answer that question. Don't let your answers lead to more questions. Be concise. Finally -- PR teams shouldn't underestimate the value of video -- more specifically the use of webcasts because they're a cost-efficient and fast way to get your message across to media outlets and to the public. _______ For more information about this report or any of our strategic research reports, please contact your CAS representative. Thanks and have a great day!

Corporate Advisory Insight: Sovereign Wealth Funds - 270 sec
Glenn Curtis from Thomson Financial's Corporate Advisory Services group discusses Sovereign Wealth Funds. Transcript: Good afternoon. My name is Glenn Curtis. I am a Director in Thomson Financials Strategic Research group. Our topic today is Sovereign Wealth Funds. Sovereign Wealth Funds, or SWFs, are foreign government investment vehicles. Many of these funds are flush with petrodollars, and have made headlines recently because of their cash hordes. They are now beginning to diversify out of low yielding bonds and into other assets for greater returns. _____________________________________________________________________ Over the last few years, SWFs have received increased scrutiny as their size and scope has grown. Their collective assets under management are now estimated at 2.5 trillion dollars. There are around 25 nations that either operate SWFs or are in the process of creating them. The largest SWFs include the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, Norway's' Government Pension Fund, Singapore's GIC, the Kuwait Investment Authority, and the China Investment Corporation. Now SWFs are passive and anonymous investors, and they tend to be very long-term holders. However, the sheer number and size of recent SWF investments has created some controversy. The continuing fallout from the U.S. sub prime mortgage market has left many leading European and U.S. banks turning to SWFs for much needed capital infusions in order to support their faltering balance sheets. The SWFs have thus far been willing and able to invest for several reasons. First, they have been attracted to the discount prices at which these companies are trading. Second, some argue that they may have been compelled to intervene as a lack of action could have resulted in a detrimental effect on the global economy and, in turn, on their own investments. I should also point out that banks have found it easier to raise money from the SWFs, because they remain liquid -- and because the capital markets, particularly in the U.S., have been so weak. _____________________________________________________________ Earlier this year, Citigroup announced that the Government of Singapore and Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal had acquired a $14.5 billion stake in the company. This followed Citigroup's announcement last year that Abu Dhabi Investment Authority had acquired a stake. UBS, Merrill Lynch, Morgan Stanley, and Barclays also have reported notable investments from SWFs. ______________________________________________________________ The American public has been concerned by these investments, and has raised issues of transparency, corporate governance and the fear of foreign government influence on domestic corporate strategy. Many of these criticisms are similar to those made about hedge funds a few years ago. However, it is important to note that SWF's profits generally support governments and entire economies, rather than a few wealthy individuals. In addition, SWFs are again generally long term strategic investors while hedge funds have tended to concentrate on a shorter time frame of investment. _____________________________________________________________________- With regards to resolving transparency and corporate governance issues, Norway's SWF is considered by many as the benchmark model in this field, with arms length management from government, disclosure of investment portfolios and returns on an annual basis as well as regular audits from external regulators. _______________________________________________________________________ Looking ahead, there have been calls for a global code of conduct for SWFs but attempts by the IMF in generating a consensus among key players have so far failed. That said, Australia, the EU, and the U.S. are actively developing their own set of rules, which could some argue, force SWFs to invest elsewhere. Incidentally, China has hit back, viewing increased scrutiny as a prelude to a new era of protectionism. For corporate audiences, the key takeaway is to be aware of this new breed of investor and to be familiar with all the key facts in the hope that cooler and wiser heads will prevail. For further coverage on this issue, please check out TF contributions in the FT, The Washington Post and IR Magazine. The Davos talk on SWFs is also available on the You Tube World Economic Forum playlist. And finally I would refer you to Strategic Research's Simon Tse and his report on the subject. For those wishing to view an executive summary of Simon's report or executive summaries of other reports that Strategic Research has disseminated please go to the Corporate Services Center at www.thomson.com/financial/CorporateResources Again, my name is Glenn Curtis with the Strategic Research Group. Thank you.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Advisory Committee Testimony - 375 sec
This is my personal testimony before the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Advisory Committee (CFSAC) in May 2008. It is a chartered committee that meets twice yearly, and provides recommendations to the Secretary of Health within the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS). The committee consists of clinicians who specialize in the treatment of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), often times referred to as Chronic Fatigue and Immune Dysfunction Syndrome (CFIDS), members of the CDC, the NIH, the SSA, and other federal government entities. I've been hesitant to post the clip because I was nervous, and feel I could have done a better job on my delivery, however I think the message is worth disseminating. In addition, "my story" is quite personal, but my intent was to garner the attention of the committee members, and try to put a young, male face to CFS.

Corporate Advisory Insight: Short Selling - 184 sec
Hallie Elsner from Thomson Financial's Corporate Advisory Services group discusses short selling. Transcript: Every two weeks, the major North American markets report short interest figures on publicly traded companies, but what exactly is short interest, how do investors sell short, and why does it matter? I'm Hallie Elsner and on today's Corporate Advisory Insight, we'll delve into the investment practice known as short selling. First things first, what is short selling? Traders who sell securities "short" are essentially borrowing shares from institutional investors or brokerage houses that currently hold positions in the particular security and subsequently sell them in the open market. At some point, the short seller must then cover the loaned shares by repurchasing and returning them to the lending institution. The short interest is the number of shares that have not yet been repurchased for return to lenders, which is the number that is published on a bi-weekly basis. Another important aspect to a short position in a security is known as the "short interest ratio," which is the number of trading days of average volume that would be required to close out the short positions through share repurchases in the open market. An interesting phenomenon associated with shorting occurs when market participants target securities with high short interest ratios by rapidly accumulating the shares at ever-higher prices, forcing the shorters to cover their positions at significant losses. As the shorts scramble for shares to cover their loans, the incremental buying exacerbates the price move upwards and causes a "short squeeze". Now, why do investors sell short? Short-sellers have many different motives for their activity and various objectives as to how they hope their particular short position will reward them with a positive investment return. The most basic of short selling strategies occurs when traders sell borrowed shares of companies that they perceive as being over-valued in the marketplace, betting that they will then be able to repurchase those shares in the future at a lower price. In this case, traders are indicating a negative view on the valuation of the company in light of future prospects. Traders may also short-sell shares as part of a long/short strategy with two or more companies involved in a merger/acquisition (deal arbitrage) or an equity carve-out situation (sum-of-the-parts arbitrage). In deal arbitrage, the strategy is to go long the target company and short the acquiring company, when the deal is a stock-for-stock transaction. In an equity carve-out situation, where a parent company owns typically 80% of one or more public traded subsidiaries,, the strategy is to go short the subsidiary company stock(s) and long the parent. Now that we know how and why investors short; is this data significant and what does it mean to a company? In general, analysts are split about the significance of this data. An overall increase in short interest is considered by some to be a bearish indicator, since more investors are betting on a downturn in stock prices. But many contrarian investors consider a significant increase in short interest for a particular stock to be a buy signal, since short sales eventually must be covered. One needs to study short interest over a long period of time and investigate periods of unusual activity to gauge the prevailing market sentiment. I'm Hallie Elsner, thanks for watching.

Corporate Advisory Insight: Quarterly Filings - 178 sec
The Corporate Advisory Services group of Thomson Financial discusses 13F Filings Transcript: Hi. I'm Mike Tamas from Thomson Financial Corporate Advisory Services. As we approach the 45th day since the end of the most recent calendar quarter, many institutional investors are filing with the SEC to disclose their investments as of the end of the quarter. Being experts in institutional ownership, we thought it would be helpful to go through the specifics of these quarterly filings. While exceptions exist, the majority of institutions will disclose their holdings under normal circumstances as I will describe in a moment. Under SEC regulation, many institutions are required to publicly disclose holdings if they wish to continue to invest in these securities and market their services to the investing public. In general, Institutional investment managers who exercise investment discretion over $100 million or more in Section 13(f) securities must report their holdings on Form 13F with the SEC. Mutual Funds are also required to file separately for their holdings. Form 13F includes the names of institutional investment managers, as well as the names, class, CUSIP, the number of shares owned, and the total market value of each security. Institutions file for publicly listed equity securities and may disclose ownership in other security classes. The SEC allows institutions 45 days after the end of a quarter to disclose positions, and filers utilize the entire period in an effort to maintain confidentiality for the longest period possible. Some institutions even apply for exemption, or the right to delay their filings. While it is rare that the SEC allows this, exemptions do exist, for example, to prevent the piggy backing or dumping of shares to follow a particular investor. These filings are available at the SEC's website. In addition, Thomson Financial is a major provider of such data engaging in an additional step to help corporations better understand who is making investment decisions. Some investment firms are "conglomerates" of investment managers and file for holdings in aggregate, making it difficult to ascertain who has authority over the shares. Thomson Financial analyzes this data to help its corporate clients understand more specifically who is making the decisions. 13F data is important as it provides historical snapshots of institutions that own shares of a corporation. For those in the practice of Investor Relations or management of the company, this can help identify the stakeholders. The filings help to determine new holders, existing holders that have increased positions, as well as those which have reduced or liquidated positions. A 13F filing may be the first time a corporation has heard of an investor, or it may be to confirm the level of ownership that an investor maintains. This information can be used to maintain existing relationships with a corporation's shareholders and also aid in efforts to attract institutions that are not currently investors. That covers 13Fs under most circumstances. Stay tuned for more on SEC filings, including 13Ds and 13Gs, which are required by the SEC when a firm crosses above and/or below ownership of 5% of a company's shares outstanding. Once again, I'm Mike Tamas from Thomson Financial's Corporate Advisory Services, thanks for watching.

Advisory on Benzocaine Sprays and Methemoglobinemia - 160 sec
FDA recently issued a Public Health Advisory to remind health care professionals that the overuse of benzocaine anesthetic sprays can cause methemoglobinemia, a potentially life-threatening condition that can result in cyanosis, confusion, hemodynamic instability and coma. Benzocaine sprays, including those sold under the brand names Hurricaine, Topex and Cetacaine, are used to anesthetize the mucous membranes of the mouth and throat when preparing patients for minor surgery, endoscopic procedures and endotracheal intubation. Methemoglobinemia is a known side-effect when benzocaine sprays are used, but the risk can increase when practitioners use multiple sprays or sprays of longer duration than recommended. FDA is reviewing the safety data for these products to determine if additional action is needed. FDA recommends the following actions to help minimize the risk: • Use only the minimum amount of benzocaine spray to produce the required anesthetic effect. • Carefully observe patients treated with benzocaine sprays for signs of methemoglobinemia. These include headache, lightheadedness, shortness of breath, anxiety, fatigue, pale, gray or blue colored skin, and tachycardia. Blood that's chocolate-brown in color is a late sign of life- threatening levels of methemoglobinemia. • Promptly treat patients suspected of having high levels of methemoglobin. Supplemental oxygen alone is not effective. The only known treatment is intravenous administration of methylene blue. • Do not rely on commonly available 2-wavelength pulse oximetry to detect hypoxia because it may be unreliable in cases of methemoglobinemia. Analyze blood samples with a co-oximeter instead. • Infants less than 4 months of age and patients with certain hemoglobin and enzyme abnormalities are at increased risk for developing toxic levels of methemoglobin. Patients who have breathing problems such as asthma, bronchitis, or emphysema, patients with heart disease, and patients who smoke are at greater risk for complications related to methemoglobinemia. All of these patients would likely benefit from either the use of topical anesthetics that do not contain benzocaine or other forms of therapy.
