120
Temperature receptors
Cold: sends impulses on A delta nerve fibers
Hot: sends impulses on C nerve fibers
121
Regional anesthesia temperature
- epidural/spinal blocks afferent fibers from preventing cold input into the hypothalamus

130
Oxygen content
CaO2= 1.34 Hgb X SaO2/100 (%bound) + 0.0003 PaO2
131
Hyperoxia
Toxicity develops from the excessive production of oxygen free radicals; superoxide anion, hydroxyl radicals and singlet oxygen species
- high O2 predisposes patients to mucous plugging and atelectasis
132
Carbon Dioxide transport
1) 70% as bicarb
2) 23% bound to hemoglobin and plasma proteins
3) 7% dissolved in plasma
133
isohydric transport
transport of CO2 as bicarbonate
- in RBC
-CO2 + H2O H2CO3 (carbonic acid) Hco3- (bicarb)+ H+
H ion is buffered by histidine and bicard undergoes chloride shift (hamburger shift)to exchange for chloride
134
Haldane effect
- O2 travels down pressure gradient in lungs
- O2 binds to hemoglobin causes a conformation change from T (tense) to R (relaxed) state that promotes release of CO2
- In R state H ions are released which combine with bicarb and go back to CO2 for release
135
Central chemoreceptors
mainly responsive to changes in PCo2, pH and acid/base parameters
136
Peripheral Chemoreceptors
mainly responsive to decreases in arterial Po2, increases in PCo2 and H+, and decreases in perfusion pressure

SLN: sensory innovation to the base of the tongue, epiglottis aryepiglottic folds, and the artynoids. Motor innervation to cricothyroid muscle.
140
Bronchodilation facts
- Mediated by Beta 2. Stimultation increases the formation of cAMP by activating adenylate cyclase
- cAMP bronchodilates, cGMP bronchoconstricts; this balance is what dictates relaxation or constriction
141
Bronchodilators

EF= SV/EDV
146
SA node manipulations
- Parasympathetic: large release of Ach, cell sbecome more permeable to potassium and become hyperpolarized; more negative membrane and reduces slope of phase 4
- Sympathetic; beta 1 adrenergic receptors cause a decrease in potassium permeability but increase in sodium and calcium; increased slope of phase 4 and reduce extent of re-polarization
147
Calcium induced calcium release
Long lasting (L-type) CA2+ channels located in t-tubule membranes are the main portals for CA2+ entry into the cell, which triggers the secondary release of Ca2+ from sarcoplasmic reticulum
148
excitation-contraction coupling
process by which mechanical shortening is transduced from an electrical signal ; triggers the release of calcium
149
Sympathetic nerve innervation of heart
R sympathetic nerve fibers predominantly innervate the SA and left mainly innervate the AV nodes and ventricles
150

Resistance calculations
In series= sum of all resistances
| in parallel= sum of the reciprocals of individual resistances
160
Carotis SInus
baroreceptors
- Afferent impulses travel within Hering's nerve (glossopharyngeal)
- travel to nucleus solitarius
161
Aortic arch baroreceptors
travel through the aortic nerve (vagus)
| - travel to nucleus solitarius
162
Nucleus Solitarius
receive impulses from baroreceptors from IX and X
- send inhibitory signals to preganglionic sympathetic neurons in the spinal cord to decrease sympathetic nerve outflow to peripheral blood flow
- increase in parasympathetic response through Vagus nerve
- Overall; decrease in cardiac contractility, HR, SVR
163
Anesthetics vs baroreceptors
dose dependent attenuation of baroreceptor activity
164
V/Q of the west lung zones
1) V/Q > 1
2) V/Q = 1
3) V/Q < 1
165
Hormones controling RBF
1) ADH; released from the posterior pituitary in response to hypernatremia or hypovoemia causing H2O retention. Also shifts blood flow from cortex to (ischemic prone) medulla
2) Atrial natriuretic peptide; increases GFR via afferent arteriole dilation
3) Nitric Oxide; dilates renal vessels and increases perfusion
4) renal prostaglandins; cause dilation of renal arterioles
166
Starling equation
Fluid movement = filtration constant X (capillay hydrostatic pressure- interstitial hydrostatic pressure) - reflection constant X (capillary oncotic pressure - interstitial oncotic pressure)
167
Renal diuresis
- pressure natriureses; increased renal perfusion resultsin increases excretion of sodium and water
- Osmotic diuresis; osmotically active solutes (glucose and mannitol) in renal tubules causes increased oncotic pressure and water excretion
168
Renal control of blood volume
1) Angiotensin II; efferent arteriolar constriction (raising renal perfusion and GFR), stimulated ADH release
2) ADH increases sodium reabsroption in proximal tubule, stimulates aldosterone release
3) Aldosterone; enhances absorption of sodium and water from DCT/collecting duct
- ADH and aldosterone shift RBF to medulla
169
Release of ADH
angiotensin II stimulation, hypernatremia, increased osmolarity, arterial baroreceptors and atrial stretch receptors
170
Indications for digitalsi
1) Ventricular rate control of chronic a fib or flutter
2) treatment of narrow complex paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia
3) treatment of congestive heart failure
171
Digitalis MOA
binds to and inhibits the sodium potassium adenosine triphosphate pump leading to an increased cystolic sodium concentration
- this gradient disallows sodium calcium transporter to remove calcium thereby increasing calcium concentration
- At pacemaker cells digitalis increases the absolute refractory period and decreases action potential conduction- negative chronotropy
172
Digitalis toxicty
- hypoxemia renal insufficiency, hypothyroidism hypoglycemia, hypomagnesiumia, and hypercalcemia
- pathognomonic dysrhythmia; paroxysmal atrial tachycardia with 2:1 AV block
- can cause severe hyperkalemia
173
Treatment of digitalis toxicity
- preferred antidysrhythmic drug is phenytoin, can use lidocaine
- digifab
174
Epinephrine
Beta 1, alpha 1 and alpha 2
- Low doses ( <0.04mcg/kg/min): B>A; positive inotropy and vasodilation
- medium ( 0.04-.12) B=A with vasoconstriction beating vasodilation
- High (>0.12) A>B, potent vasoconstrictor
175
Norepinephrine
Alpha 1 and Beta 1
0.02-0.25 mcg/kg/min
Alpha effect increases with dose
176
Dopamine
low doses (0.5-3 mcg/kg/min) D1 and D2; increase renal and mesenteric blood flow through vasodilation
moderate (3-5) beta 1
high (5-20) alpha 1
177
Dobutamine
B1 > Alpha=Beta2
178
Isoproterenol
nonselevtive beta agonist
- increases stroke volume through beta 1
- Vasodilation through beta 2
- can cause myocardial ischemia
179
Phosphodiesterase inhibitors
- increase inotropy and lusitropy
- increase Ca2+ intracellular due to blocking of phosphodiesterases breaking down cAMP.
- also cause vasodilation systemically

RAAS
- Renin released from the macula densa cells stimulate the JG cells to release renin based off low flow
- Renin cleaves angiotensinogen to angiotensin 1
- Ace converts Angiotensin 1 to 2

- for patients who cant tolerate ACEi
192
RAAS antagonitist vasoplegia
- variable incidence of severe hypotension during the initial 30 minutes after induction of anesthesia
- more resistant to alpha adrenergic agonists due to chronic AT1 receptor blockade
- use norepi, restores BP and maintains CO (we use vassopressin here; does maintain CO as well)
193
Vasoplegia
- vasodilatory shock state when vascular tone is profoundly decreased and unresponsive to traditional sympathomimetics drugs
- cardiac surgeries just separated from CPB, septic shock, hemorrhagic shock, post-reperfusion liver transplant recipients, post pheo resections, post induction with ACEi or ARBs
