Q

How is cerebral blood flow autoregulated?

A

As a result of autoregulation a constant cerebral blood flow is maintain when MAP is within 60-160. Increase in CPP will cause vasoconstriction whereas decreased in CPP will result in vasodilation to maintain a constant blood flow. MAP>160 will result in hemmorhage whereas MAP<60 will lead to inschemia.

Q

Differentiate between cerebral steal and inverse steal.

A

short answer:

  • Both conditions occur in a patient with ischemic areas of the brain where vessels are already maximaly dilated. In cerebral steal (luxury perfusion) a vasodilator results in increased flow to nonsichemic areas as they respond to dilation compared to inschemic vessels that are already maximaly dilated. In Inverese steal (robin hood) vasoconstriction results in more blood flow to inschemic areas that remain dilated in the presence of a vasoconstrictor that only affects normal vessels.

Q

Differentiate between supraspinal and spinal anesthesia.

A

short answer:

  • Spinal Analgesia occurs when transmission of pain through SG (L II) is suppressed by neuroaxial admin or when IV opioid acts on periventricular and periaquaductal gray, locus ceruleus, raphe magnus. Mu-2 is the dominant receptor.
  • Supraspinal Analgesia occurs when opioids act on limbic system, hypothalamus and thalamus. Mu-1 is the dominant receptor.

Q

MOA of morphine in the substantia gelatinosa. Short answer

A
