Blue
Dibucaine number
Normal:80
Heterozygous:60
Homozygous:20
Differentiation of genetic and non genetic causes of scoline apnea
Plasma cholinesterase
Dibucaine number
Shortest acting LA
Chlorprocaine
Longest acting LA
- dibucaine
- tetracaine
- bupivacaine
Delhi To Bombay
Potency of LA
Dibucaine>etidocaine=tetracaine=bupivacaine
Normal CO2 in capnography
32-42mmHg(3-4mm less than arterial PCO2)
High baseline of ETCO2
Exhausted absorbent
Incompetent expiratory valve
Insufficient fresh gas flows into mapleson system
Problems with inner tube of bains system
Curare notch is seen during
Spontaneous ventilation PNEUMOTHORAX Cervical transverse lesion Flail chest Hiccup
It is due to asynchrony btw diaphragm and intercostal muscles
LA systemic toxicity is increased by
Hypoxia Hypercarbia Acidosis Renal failure Extreme age
Cardiodepressant effect of bupivacaine is aggravated by
Acidosis Hypoxia Hypercarbia Pregnancy IHD conduction blocks
Rx of systemic local anesthetic toxicity
20% lipid emulsion
Anti arrhythmic of choice in systemic LA toxicity
?Bretylium
Wrights respirometer
False high,false low values
False high-high flow rates
False low-low flow rates
Respirometers are used to monitor
Anemometer
Expiratory volume
It can be used to calculate flows also
First sign of LA toxicity
CNS
Drugs not to be used in bupivacaine cardiotoxicity
Lidocaine
Amiodarone
Systemic effect of inhaled NO
Least
No systemic vasodilation
Potency of xenon anesthesia
Low
Xenon weight compared to air
4.5 times Heavier than air
Management of chronic pain
Intrathecal hyperbaric phenol Anterolateral cordotomy Epidural fentanyl PCA(patient controlled analgesia) Anticonvulsant drugs Antidepressant drugs TENS sympathetic Cryoanalgesia
Systemic effect of NO is reduced due to
Binding of NO by Hb
