Long Post

36
Q

Organ response to PNS and SNS?

A

SNS 30:1 (mass response)

PNS 1:1 (precise control)

37
Q

What is the sympathetic ganglia?

A

Efferent limb- where the pre and post ganglion synapse

38
Q

What are the three paths a preganglionic fiber can take?

A

Synapse on the same level

Ascend or descend

Bypass entirely and move to a different collateral ganglion

39
Q

***Know the Stellate Ganglion. What is it?

A

Provides sympathetic innervation to the ipsilateral upper extremity and neck

40
Q

When might the stellate ganglion be blocked? (what nerve block)

A

Brachial Plexus

41
Q

A

Very Horny PAM

-Vasodilation
-Horner
-Ptosis
-Anhidrosis
-Miosis

42
Q

Which part of the adrenal gland secretes catecholamines?

A

Medulla

43
Q

Are there post ganglionic fibers in the Adrenal gland?

A

NO - just pre

44
Q

How much epi and norepi is secreted by the Adrenal Gland?

A

Epi - 80%
Norepi - 20%

Epi - .2mcg/kg/min
Norepi- .05mcg/kg/min

45
Q

**What us critical to remember when managing pheochromocytoma?

A

MUST ALPHA BLOCK FIRST

46
Q

What happens after the tumor is removed from the adrenal gland?

A

-Hypotension and hypoglycemia because the tumor isn’t secreting it

47
Q

What does the hepatocyte release when the SNS is activated?

A

-Glucose and Potassium

-Insulin is also released in response to the glucose

48
Q

What happens to the potassium levels once it is released?

A
  1. Initial increase
  2. Decreases due to the K/Na Pump and shifts it back into the cells

Q

What shifts K out of the cell?

A

Succ

ACIDOSIS

Hyperosmolarity

Cell lysis

50
Q

What shifts K into the cell?

A

Insulin or Epi
Beta 2
Alkalosis
Theophylline

51
Q

Q

Afferent pathway of the carotid bodies?

A

Carotid sinus
Glossopharyngeal

(nerves of herring)

54
Q

How does a mediastinoscopy affect the baroreceptor reflex?

A

Scope presses on the aortic arch causing bradycardia

55
Q

What keeps the baroreceptor reflex intact?

A

Thiopental
Nitro + Nipride
Ketamine?
