anesthesia Flashcards
drugs for induction
thiopental, propofol, and etomidate
etomidate adverse effects
accumulation, decreased CBF, brain metab. rate, ICP, and pulmonary function; decreases adrenal medulla steroid synthesis
thiopental adverse effects
increased HR, decreased CBF, brain metab. rate, ICP and plum function;
porphyria
cyp inhibition
propofol adverse effects
decreased CBF, brain metab. rate, ICP, and pulm. function; increased HR,
propofol infusion syndrome - cardiac arrest, multi organ system failure
ketamine adverse effects
causes dissociative states, increased CBF, ICP, BP, HR, and CO (good thing); bronchodilation (good), hallucinations
IV analgesic that increases cardiac output
ketamine
short acting benzos
lorazepam and midazolam
long acting benzo
diazepam
benzodiazepam antagonist
flumazenil
remifentanil
ultra rapid acting IV opiate
neurolept analgesia (for awake surgery)
droperidol, fentanyl, N2O, and atropine
causes malignant hyperthermia
succinylcholine, volatile anesthetic agents
malignant hyperthermia treatment
dantrolene, hyperventilate with O2, correct hyperkalemia and acidosis, cool core temp
local anesthetics pharmacology
lipophilicity allows them to dissolve through the membrane to get to the inside of the Na channel, hydrophilicity allows them to stay in the membrane so it can bind to the channel without passing all the way through the membrane;
have to cross the membrane in the unionized state
local anesthetic MOA
blockade of voltage gated Na channels by binding to the inside of the channel in the activated and inactive states (not closed)
require the most anesthetic
large, myelinated fibers and fibers in the center of the nerve (distal fibers)
order of anesthesia of fiber types with local anesthetic
Beta, Adelta, C, motor
amide local anesthetics
lidocaine, mepivicaine, prilocaine, bupivacaine, ropicacaine, articaine
slow onset amides
mepivicaine, bupivicaine and ropivacaine
esters
procaine, tetracaine, chlorprocaine, cocaine
topical anesthetics
benzocaine, dibucaine, dyclonine, pramoxine
topical anesthetics not for use on mucus membranes
dibucaine and pramoxine
cause methemoglobinemia
benzocaine and prilocaine
EMLA
lidocaine and prilocaine cream
LET
lidocaine, epinephrine, and tetracaine liquid; used for peds before stitches
lidocaine + ozymetazoline
used by ENT to decrease nasal engorgement
rapid intubation
lidocaine, vecuronium, fentanyl, atropine
local anesthetic with most cardiotoxic effects
bupivacaine
local anesthetic with fast onset
prilocaine and chlorprocaine
vasoconstrictors to use with local anesthetic
epinephrine, phenylephrine, and oxymetazoline (alpha agonists)
fast onset inhalation anesthetics
sevoflurane and desflurane
inhaled anesthetic that causes seizures
enflurane
inhaled anesthetic that causes arrhythmia
halothane
inhaled anesthetic that causes muscle relaxation
isoflurane
N2O adverse effects
teratogen, inhibition of B12 synthesis, can cause an increase in pressure resulting in pneumothorax and perforation
second gas effect - accumulation of other drugs
exits system fast and can lead to diffusional hypoxia
opoids for anesthesia
morphine, fentanyl and remifentanil
IV induction drug that does not effect CV function
etomidate
systemic effects of local anesthetics
ringing in ears, numbing of lips and tongue, metallic taste, seizures
conversion between grams, mLs, and percents
100% = 1g/1mL
to reverse anesthesia from local anesthetics
phentolamine (alpha-1 blocker)
benzodiazepines to use the night before surgery
lorazepam and diazepam
1st gen antihistamines for use in sedation prior to surgery (drugs and effects)
hydroxyzine, diphenhydramine, promethazine; useful for sedation, anxiolysis, bronchodilation, antiemesis, and analgesia; dry secretions
to prevent aspiration pneumonitis
cimetidine and ranitidine - H2 blockers
bicitra and polycitra - increase pH of current contents
metoclopramide - D2 blocker to increase rate of gastric emptying
water - increases stretch reflex
ancillary anesthesia anticholinergics
atropine, glycopyrrolate and scopolamine
dry secretions, prevents reflux and bradycardia
rapid intubation
oxygenate, lidocaine, vecuronium, fentanyl,and atropine
Tx for post-anesthesia HTN
nitroprusside or trimethaphan
Tx for post-anesthesia hypotension
dopamine, phenylephrine, or ephedrine
