12. On/Off Pump Management Flashcards
cardiac induction drug options
- higher versed/fentanyl
- etomidate
- smaller propofol dose w/bag mask induction
versed cardiac induction dose
5mg
fentanyl cardiac induction dose
250mcg
why would etomidate be considered for cardiac induction?
produces less hypotension
when is intubation indicated during cardiac induction
once induction drugs have lowered BP to level that will prevent excessive HTN (under 100 systolic)
BOBCAT
Baseline labs/ACT
OG insertion/removal
BIS monitor
Central line
Amicar
TEE
Amicar bolus for cardiac surgery
liberty: 5g
lukes: 10g
Amicar infusion
1g/hr
why is amicar used for cardiac surgery
antifibrinolytic used to counteract bypass blood damage
decrease post op bleeding
amicar alternative
TXA
most sensitive detection of interoperative ischemia
RMWA is 4x more sensitive than ECG ST segment
TEE functions (7)
- show valve function
- EF
- chamber size
- contractility
- RWMA
- PAP
- estimate CO
what procedure is the saphenous vein harvested in
CABG
anesthesia tasks during sternal incision and sternotomy
turn off ventilator
remove breathing bag
avoid HTN
- give fentanyl
- NTG
what drugs help avoid HTN during sternotomy
fentanyl
NTG
what happens to intrathoracic pressure during sternal retraction
incr ITP
==decr venous return
==decr CO
==decr BP
what procedure is the LIMA harvested in
CABG
anesthesia tasks during LIMA harvesting
decr tidal volume to keep lungs out of surgeon’s view
incr RR to preserve MV
is there significant stimulation during LIMA harvesting
no
what might happen when the pericardium is opened?
vagal response
pericardium nerves are derived from
vagus
phrenic
is the pericardium closed at the end of surgery
no - closing the pericardium causes incr risk of tamponade
when do you give heparin
prior to aortic cannulation
what lab do you check after giving heparin? how long after?
ACT is checked 3 mins after giving heparin
how much blood is needed for ACT
1mL
what ACT is pt ready for bypass
> 450s
aortic cannulation an lead to
possible aortic dissection
what is cannulated first, arterial or venous?
arterial
anesthesia tasks during aortic cannulation
lower SBP to 90-100mmHg
(decr risk of dissection)
where is venous cannulation done?
right atrial appendage
when is the pt considered “on pump”
once venous cannulation occurs and the venous reservoir is open
anesthesia tasks when pt starts bypass
- vent off
- vaporizer off
- empty foley (pre-bypass urine)
- monitor in “bypass” mode
- put vasoactive infusions in stanby
what infusions do we keep on during bypass
amicar
insulin
optimal MAP for pts on bypass
78mmHg
antegrade CP catheter placement
aortic root
when is strain on the heart minimized
when heart is empty
CP is given after
the cross clamp is placed
when is CP re-dosed
every 20-30 mins
what indicates that the surgeon is almost done repairing the heart
when the perfusionist begins to rewarm the pt
what risk increases during rewarming
risk for awareness increases during rewarming
