14. Anesthesia Flashcards
Stages of anesthesia?
wc one does anesthesiologist minimize?
Stage 1: analgesia
Stage 2: Excitement (keep to minimum)
Stage 3: surgical anesthesia (regular respiration, eye movements cease, relx muscles)
Stage 4:medullary parlaysis
MOA of Benzos? Antagonist to tx OD?
Inc frequency of channel opening. Flumazenil
hw is cocaine metabolized? lidocaine?
cocaine = local ester anesthetic –> plasma esterases. Lidocaine = amide –> liver amidases
Drug used for epidural anesthesia?
Bupicacaine
wt determines duration of action of local anesthetics?
diffusion/absorption
local anesthetics: MOA? wc form has higher affinity?
Bind Na channel, inhibiting conduction.
Ionized have higher affinity.
Dissociate anesthetic used?
MOA?
wt reduces utility?
Ketamine
blocks NMDA receptor
Recovery has hallucinations
wc inhaled anesthetic does not cause malignant hyperthermia? 2 AEs? hw to prevent one?
Nitrous Oxide (N2O) megaloblastic anemia dec respiration –> administer 30% O2
wc local anesthetic causes vasoconstriction?
Cocaine only
3 Local anesthetic used in mucous membranes and cornea?
tetracaine, lidocaine and cocaine
How does solubility affect rate of induction of anesthetics?
Decreased solubility will increase rate of induction
inhaled anesthetic to use that does not induce arrhythmas, sensitize heart or decrease cardiac output?
Isoflurane
why are opioids used for anesthesia? wt type of procedures are they used for?
Analgesia
used in cardiac surgery
why Anticholinergics use for anesthesia? 2 used?
prevent secretions and prevent vagal effects.
Scopalamine - prevent salivaiton
Atropine – prevent reflex bradycardia
hw do the following affect inhalation anesthetic rate of induction, inc solubility in blood? inc concentration? inc alveolar ventilation? inc cardiac output?
inc solubility decreases rate of induction time inc concentration increases rate of induction inc alveolar ventilaiton increases ROI inc cardiac output decreases ROI
