Q

What is true according to induction?

A
IV access (vein cannulation) – reasons; drug admin, fluid therapy, emergencies
Small animals: v. cephalica + saphena (v. jugularis). Induction using injectable (or inhalants):
anaesthetics with moderate (or NO) side effects, rapid onset, short duration or counter-actable. The
patient reaches an unconscious, indubitable status. Endotracheal tube introduction.

Q

Capnograph:

A

Capnograph = graphic display of values on time chart. CO2 determination in air exhaled. Supervise
respiratory frequency, etCO2 and inhalant anaesthetic conconcentration, circuit pressure and tidal
minute volume (et = end tidal).

2. Small animals: 5mmHg difference.
3. Horse: 5-20 mmHg difference.
4. Can be measured from sideflow or mainflow

Q

Mixing circuit vaporizer:

A

Most inhalational anaesthetics are liquid (volatile): converted to gas state in vaporizer, can be
precisely admin
Vaporizing: temperature dependent (stronger at higher temp), requires energy (takes in heat from
environment), different anaesthetics – different gas pressure (requires purpose-built vaporizers)

Q

Mixing system vaporizer:

A

Anaesthetic administration of modern vaporizers is not influenced by: flow rate, surrounding
environmental temperature, air pressure, temperature fluctuations during vaporizing, press
fluctuations during respiration or ventilation
Vaporizers can be classed as two main types: Injectable or variable-bypass.
