Spontaneous ventilation, which Mapleson limits rebreathing?
A!
-FGF as far from pt as possible
Mechnical ventilation, which uses least FGF w/ no rebreathing?
D or F, where FGF right next to pt
What happens when you quit smoking for 48 hours?
-dec carboxyHg
-R shift of O2 dissoc curve
-dec CN levels -> better oxidative phosphorylation
-dec nicotine levels -> improves vasodilation and clearance of toxic substances that may impair wound healing
n most commonly injured in OB deliveries
LFCN
obturator n damage symptoms
dec sensation on inner thigh
weakness of internal rotation and hip adduction
MC drug to cause anaphylaxis in the OR
NMBD
MCC of unilateral RLN injury
- Cancer
(surgery is 2nd)
To minimize postop blindness
-maintain MAP per pts baseline BP
-neck in neutral position
-avoid direct eye compression
-in high risk pts consider doing staging surgical procedures, break into 2 shorter cases
-higher risk w/ male sex and obesity
what n injury: dec knee extension, dec hip abduction, numnbess on anteromedial thigh and calf, dec patellar reflex
femoral n
to minimize work of breathing in an asthmatic
put them sitting up or semirecumbant (inc FRC)
-bigger ETT
-slower than normal RR
which trachs are MRI safe?
Shiley
-Bivona trachs need to be replaced before MRI
Number of days on mechanical ventilation to have it be considered ventilator assoc PNA
2 days
48 hours
only drug to tx asthma that has bronchodilator effects AND anti-inflammatory

Giving sevo and noticing a prolonged QT fix?
switch to TIVA w/ prop
-other meds that prolong QT and to avoid: epi, zofran, amiodaron
hypoxic pulm vasoconstriction and temp
decreases w/ hypothermia
-increases w/ hyperthermia

12 hours
RF for spinal hematoma
female
> 65 years old
-spinal cord or vertebral abnormalities
-renal insuff
How long after catheter removal can you give LMWH ppx dose?

what type of vWD will not respond to DDAVP?
type 3 b/c they make none
Treacher Collins syndrome
-glossoptosis (tongue posteriorly placed)
-micrognathia
-cleft palate
-cardiac abnormalities
-auricular malformationn and deafness
-slanting of palpebral fissure
immunosuppressant causing renal issues
tacrolimus
cyclosporine
compared to typical epidural, what does a DPE do better?
Better sacral analgesia
=less need for top-up doses than either epidural or CSE
-DPE was assoc w/ less motor blockade than conventional epidural dosing
Best PFT at predicting postop outcomes w/ lobectomies
FEV1
black box warning for hyroxyethyl starch
inc risk of bleeding and renal injury in pts w/ sepsis
type of rsolution determines u/s machine ability to discriminate structures at different depths
axial
u/s ability to distinguish 2 objects at the same depth
lateral resolution
u/s ability to distinguishb/w events of rapidly moving structures
temporal resolution
what do you use a CHADS-VASc to assess?
RF for stroke w/ a fib
early v last burn phases
early: hypovolemic, hypodynamic cardiac
late: hyperdynamic, hypermetabolic state
MC complication w/ TAVR
damage to the conduction system requiring a pacemaker
specificity
TN/TN+FP
GFR and renal arterial pressure
GFR inc w/ inc renal arterial pressure, but then plateaus at ~80
What opioid should be avoided in lactating/breastfeeding?
codeine -> dep on enzymes can lead to high conc of morphine in breast milkd
Def of adequate preoxygenation
EtO2 > 90%
