Neuromuscular monitoring sites
After laryngeal muscles and diaphragm, the corrugator supercilii (eyebrow movement) is the most resistant to neuromuscular blockade and most closely resembles the abdominal and laryngeal muscles. The adductor pollicis is more sensitive to neuromuscular blockade and is the best choice to monitor for extubating conditions. The flexor hallucis (big toe flexion) and orbicularis oculi (eyelid movement) correlate more closely with the adductor pollicis.
88
emergence reaction with ketamine risk factors
Age: Adult patients are more likely to report a high incidence compared to pediatrics.
Gender: Females are more likely than males.
Dosage: Larger doses with rapid administration increase the risk.
Psychological Susceptibility: Certain personalities types are at an increased risk; those who tend to dream at home and those who score high on the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (extrovert, neurotic) tend to have a higher risk.
Concurrent Medications: Multiple medications increase the incidence although administering a benzodiazepine prior to administration of ketamine helps decrease the risk.
89
Strong ion difference
The concept of SID proposes that plasma pH is determined by three independent factors: PCO2, SID, and Atot. The latter (Atot) represents the total plasma concentration of nonvolatile buffers (e.g., albumin, globulins, and inorganic phosphate). Strong ion difference represents the difference between the charge of plasma strong cations (sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium) and anions (chloride and other strong anions (A-) such as lactate, sulfate, ketoacids, and nonesterified fatty acids).
SID = ( [Na+] + [K+] + [Ca2+] + [Mg2+] ) - ( [Cl-] + [A-] ) ≈ 40-44 mEq/L

- acute respiratory alkalosis; pH increase of 0.10 and a HCO3- decrease of 2 mEq/L per acute 10 mm Hg decrease in PaCO2.
- chronic alkalosis, pH nearly normalizes and HCO3- decreases 5 to 6 mEq/L per 10 mm Hg sustained decrease in PaCO2
94
Physiologic changes with PEEP
PEEP application raises intrathoracic pressure, right ventricular afterload, decreases preload and can cause hypotension in the normovolemic or hypovolemic patient without heart failure. In patients with systolic heart failure, preload is excessive, thus PEEP preload effects are minimized but afterload is decreased with resultant improvement in cardiac output and a decrease in LVEDP

101
Volume of distribution factors
The volume of distribution is the total drug within the body divided by the drug plasma concentration. It is directly proportional to the unbound drug in the plasma and inversely proportional to the unbound drug in the tissue. As such, drugs that are lipophilic have a higher Vd than drugs that are hydrophilic. Also, having greater tissue binding will decrease the unbound proportion in the tissue, thus increasing the volume of distribution.
-Volume of Distribution (Vd) = Drug dose / Plasma concentration

138
Incompentant inspiratory valve
allows exhaled gas (containing CO2) to enter the inspiratory limb of the breathing circuit during expiration. Therefore, the CO2-containing gas is inspired by the patient during the following inspiration. This extends the expiratory alveolar plateau (phase 3-4 in Figure 1). A decrease in CO2 occurs after the extended plateau and represents sampling of CO2-free gas that arrived from further proximal in the inspiratory limb. Thus the inspiratory downstroke (phase 4-1 in Figure 1) is significantly blunted and the inspiratory phase is shortened.

preop liver eval
- Plasma albumin has a half-life of nearly 3 weeks.
- Normal AST and ALT can occur in liver failure when there are no more hepatacytes to release enzymes
- 5′-nucleotidase is a marker of cholestasis, along with γ-Glutamyl transpeptidase and alkaline phosphatase. However, alkaline phosphatase lacks specificity for hepatobiliary disease and may be derived from bone or other sources
153
most common complication of jet ventaliation
- Hypercarbia
- Other important complications include impaired respiratory ciliary function, hypoxia, and loss of the airway. Rarely, subcutaneous emphysema, pneumothorax, and pneumomediastinum can result from barotrauma while necrotizing tracheobronchitis can occur from prolonged use.

Haldane vrs Bohr
he Bohr and Haldane effects are complementary principles that help explain the efficient delivery of O2 to the tissue and CO2 to the lungs. The Bohr effect states that in areas of high CO2, the hemoglobin has less affinity for O2 which is more readily released for consumption by the tissues. The Haldane effect states that deoxygenated hemoglobin has a higher affinity for CO2. Once the deoxygenated hemoglobin reaches the lungs, the high O2 concentration decreases this affinity and the CO2 is released.

Infants have a increased volatile anesthetic take up
Increased MV to FRC ratio
159
Epidural and ileus
The autonomic nervous system plays a large role in regulating gastrointestinal motility. Tonic inhibitory sympathetic control (T6-L2) predominates, but parasympathetic activation increases contractility. Therefore, sympathectomy induced by epidural or spinal analgesia results in increased gut motility (B), especially those involving epidural catheter placement at T12 or higher
160
Nerve stimulation in paralyzed nerves
The proliferation of extrajunctional acetylcholine receptors in muscle in paralyzed limbs can lead to an increased response (T4:T1) to peripheral nerve stimulation following non depolarizing neuromuscular blockade compared to a normal non paralyzed limb in the same patient

PVR=
PVR = [80 * (MPAP – PAOP)] ÷ CO
165
ACE and bradykinin
- Angiotensin converting enzyme catalyzes the degradation of bradykinin. Under normal conditions, bradykinin promotes vasodilation by increasing production of arachidonic acid metabolites and nitric oxide. ACE inhibition will increase levels of bradykinin, promoting its effect in reducing blood pressure.
- Bradykinin also affects vascular endothelium by increasing production of arachidonic acid metabolites and nitric oxide promoting vasodilation.
166
Respiratory alkalosis causes
Central : stroke, aspirin overdose, anxiety, pain, and progesterone
pulmonary causes: pulmonary embolism, pneumonia, or asthma
167
Temp correction
Blood pH and the solubilities of gases in blood are inversely related to temperature while the partial pressures of gases are directly related to temperature. Accordingly, when arterial blood gas values are corrected to a colder temperature, PaO2 and PaCO2 decrease while pH increases.

Filling vaporizers wrong
When a vaporizer calibrated for a higher vapor pressure (e.g., isoflurane at 240 mm Hg) is filled with a volatile agent of a lower vapor pressure (e.g., sevoflurane at 160 mm Hg) less output or a lower concentration is delivered. The converse is true when isoflurane is placed in a sevoflurane vaporizer.

Side effect of bicarb administration
Sodium bicarbonate administration is associated with transient increases in PaCO2, EtCO2, and intracranial pressure. Administration causes transient decreases in serum calcium and potassium. Sodium bicarbonate can also cause hypotension due to hypocalcemia, ventricular depressant effects, and redistribution of blood to the pulmonary vasculature.
-increased hemoglobin affinity for oxygen. Sodium bicarbonate administration is also associated with intracranial hemorrhage, especially with rapid administration in infants, and increased lactate production.

post HD effects
The semipermeable membrane used in HD permits only small molecules including water, electrolytes, minerals, and salts to cross according to their concentration gradients. The composition of the dialysate determines which substances move from blood to the dialysate and vice versa
-serum protein concentrations usually increase following HD due to a concentrating effect.
203
nerve sensitivity to LA
