Q

Henrys law-gas/liquids

A

At constant temperature the amount of gas dissolved in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of the gas at equilibrium above the gas-liquid interface

Q

Grahams Law

A

The rate of effusion (gas diffusion through an orifice) of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molecular weight….
i.e. small molecules diffuse faster…

Q

Diffusion vs osmosis

A

Diffusion is the movement of particles from high to low concentration

Osmosis is the movement of water (or the solvent) from a less concentrated solution to a more concentrated solution in an attempt to reach equilibrium

Q

You have ephedrine 50 mg in 1 mL. You want to prepare a syringe with 10 mg/mL. What size syringe should you use? In the second step, you set up a proportion to answer the question, If the final concentration is to be 10 mg/mL, how much diluent do you add to 1 mL of ephedrine (50 mg/mL)?

A

5mL syringe,
1mL to 4mL lol

Q

example 4: Epinephrine is available, marked “1/1,000” and “1 mg/mL.” You are asked to “double-dilute” it, so you take 1 mL of the epinephrine 1:1,000 and add 9 mL diluent. Then you discard all but one mL of the new mixture, and add 9 mL diluent. What is the resulting concentration of epinephrine in micrograms/mL?

A

• Epi 1:1,000 contains 1 mg/mL (= 1,000 mcg/mL). Taking 1 mL and adding 9 mL diluent yields a syringe with 1,000 mcg/10 mL (100 mcg/1 mL).
• Taking 1 mL of this mixture (containing 100 mcg/mL) and adding 9 mL diluent to it yields a syringe containing 100 mcg/10 mL. Each mL of the “double-diluted” new mixture contains 10 mcg/mL.

Q

What is 0.0625% Bupivicaine in mg/ml?

A

0.625 mg/ml
% is g/100ml so it is 62.5mg/100ml or
0.625mg/ml

Q

Give me mcg/ml from bag of 400mg in 250ml using the trick thingy

A

In each 0.25 mL (1/1,000th of the volume), there is 1/1,000th of the drug mass the entire bag holds.
• 400 mg x 0.001 = 0.4 mg = 400 mcg
• 250 mL x 0.001 = 0.25 mL

Q

Impact of hypokalemia on cell membranes

A

Hyperpolarizes

21
Q

Impact of hyperkalemia on cell membranes

22
Q

Potassium redistribution

A

(shift intracellularly)
-insulin+D50
-hyperventilation
-bicarbonate
-Beta-2 agonist (Albuterol)

Elimination
-potassium wasting diuretics
-kayexalate
-dialysis

23
Q

EKG response to hypokalemia

A

Long PR and QT
Flat T wave
U wave

24
Q

EKG response to hyperkalemia

A

5.5-6.5 Peaked Twaves
6.5-7.5 Pwave flattening
7-8. QRS prolongation
>8.5 QRS-Sine wave- VF

25
Calcium gluconate in Hyperkalemia
The role of calcium gluconate in treating hyperkalemia is to stabilize cardiac cell membranes. Calcium should promptly be administered to any patient with hyperkalemia and EKG changes indicating a hyperkalemic emergency. Elevated potassium levels destabilize cardiac membranes by increasing the threshold potential of cardiac myocytes. Calcium supplementation decreases the threshold to restore the transmembrane voltage gradient.
26
Tidal volume
Amount of gas inhaled and exhaled during breath 6-8 ml/kg
27
Minute ventilation Vs Alveolar ventilation
Tidal volume x respiratory rate (Tv-dead space)x resp rate
28
What does increased dead space (Vd) lead to?
Widens paCO2-EtCO2 gradient- causes co2 retention
29
A-a Gradient
Difference between alveolar oxygen and arterial oxygen Normal when breathing room air is <15mmHg Causes of increased gradient: -aging -vasodilators- decreased HPV -R to L shunt-defect or bronchial intub -diffusion limitation
30
Estimation of % shunt based on A-a gradient
Shunt increases by 1% for every 20mmHg
31
Why is acidosis associated with hyperkalemia?
When H+ is transported into cells K+ is transported out
32
Normal HCO3-
22-26mEq/L
33
ABG How do we know if it is a respiratory disorder?
pH and PaCO2 move in opposite directions
34
ABG How do we know it’s a metabolic disorder?
Bicarbonate and ph move in same direction
35
Normal anion gap
8-12 mEq/L
36
Causes of Metabolic Acidosis Elevated Anion Gap
M ethanol U remia D iabetic ketoacids P araldehyde I soniazid L actate (sepsis/cyanide) E thanol, ethylene glycol S alicylates (inhibits Kreb cycle)
37
Metabolic acidosis Normal Anion Gap
HARDUP H ypoaldosteronism A cetazolamide R enal tubular acidosis D iarrhea U retosigmoid fistula P ancreatic fistula
38
Hypercarbia in PULMONARY blood vessels vs peripheral circulation
CO2 is a vasoconstrictor in the lungs and can cause pulmonary hypertension and increase right heart workload
39
What metabolic disturbance can an MTP cause?
Metabolic alkalosis -liver converts citrate to bicarbonate
40
Key difference between gap and non-gap acidosis
Accumulation of acid=gap acidosis. NO BICARBONATE Loss of bicarbonate or ECF dilution= non-gap acidosis. GIVE BICARBONATE
41
How does pulse oximeter work
Based on beer-lambert- relates light passed through solution and the concentration of solute Two wavelengths 660- absorbed by deoxyhemoglobin 940- absorbed by oxyhemoglobin Spo2 is the ratio- (oxy/(oxy+deoxy)) *100
42
Explain left shift on oxygen/hemoglobin curve
Increased affinity for O2 (binding at lower partial pressure of Oxygen) Left=Love In Lungs: Decreased H+, Lower CO2, Lower temp
43
Explain right shift of Oxy/hemoglobin curve
Decreased affinity for O2- Right=Release Occurs near metabolically active tissue Higher temp, increased CO2 and H+
