Anesthesia pharm 1 Flashcards

1
Q

Epinephrine

A
  • Release by adrenal medulla
  • alpha1=alpha2
  • beta1=beat2
  • adrenal standard secretion rates= 0.2 mcg/kg/min
  • beta1/2 predominate at low doses leads to decreased PVR
  • alpha 1 and beta1/2 @ high does -> vast
  • bolus will result in sharp increase in MAP with baroreceptor response and vagal reflex drop in MAP

Q

Norepinephrine

A
  • Mainly alpha 1
  • No beta 2
  • 4-12mcg/min= alpha1 and beta 1
  • low dose= b1 dominates
  • high dose = a1 dominates
  • may cause pulp HTN and right heart failure

Q

Dopamine

A
  • low (1-3 mcg/kg/min) = D1 activation= coronary, renal, mesenteric vasodilation
  • moderate 3-10 mcg/kg/min= B1
  • high >10mcg/kg/min = a1

Q

Fenoldopam

A
  • D1 agonist
  • 10x potency of dopamine
  • 0.1-0.8 mcg/kg/min
  • 0.1-0.2 much/kg/min produces renal vasodilation, increased renal blood flow and increased GFR and Na excretion

Q

A2 agonist

A

-decrease CNS sympathetic output
-decrease NE release
-Sedation, hypnosis, sympatholysis, neruoprotection, diuresis,
inhibition of insulin and HGH secretion
-rapid delivery may increase BP due to postsynaptic a2b receptor mediated arterial and venom

Q

Anesthesia benefits of A2 stimulation

A

anxiolytics, sedation, decreased MAC, decreased opioid induced chest wall rigidity, decreased BP response to ETT, extubation, and incision, and decreased post anesthesia shivering

16
Q

Ephedrine

A
  • Indirect sympathomimetic
  • causes release of stored NE
  • not for pt taking TCA or MAOI
  • actions on A and B
  • competes with NE for reuptake
  • increase HR, BP and CO
  • Tachyphylaxis= decreased response with repeated doses
  • May increase MAC due to CNS stimulatory effects
17
Q

Amphetamine and Methamphetamine

A
  • CNS stimulants
  • A and B

A

Ritalin
similar effects to amphetamine
used for ADHD

19
