217
Q

How does the soda lime work in rebreathing system?

A

CO2 is an acid and soda lime is a base so when air flows through, CO2 is removed and gas is recycled

218
Q

How do you determine how big your reservoir bag should be?

A

5 x TV
Or (50-100 mL/kg)

219
Q

How do you know if it is a rebreathing system or not?

A

If there is a canister -> rebreathing
If no sodalime canister -> Not rebreathing

220
Q

What do you need to ensure on the one way valves?

A

That they are dry and not warped (especially on CO2 rebreathing)

221
Q

What happens if there is an incompetent one way valve?

A

Movement of CO2 up the inspiratory limb and then there will be consumption of CO2 on next breath from that limb

222
Q

How can you tell if a one way valve is bad?

A

Can see both opening at the same time

223
Q

What does new sodalime feel like?

A

Moist and crumbly

224
Q

What does exhausted sodalime feel like?

A

Dry and hard
Color is not reliable

225
Q

How should the pop off valve be left?

A

OPEN!!!

226
Q

When should you use non-rebreathing system?

A

in smaller patients (<5kg)

227
Q

What is the minimum volume to meet vaporizer fresh gas flow needs in a rebreathing system?

A

500mL/min

228
Q

What is the fresh gas flow rate of rebreathing system?

A

20mL/kg/min

229
Q

What is the fresh gas flow rate of non rebreathing system?

A

200mL/kg/min

230
Q

Where is gas waste vented from?

A

APL valve

231
Q

What is active scavenging?

A

Negative pressure is generated by vacuum pump and gases are actively removed from exhausted port

232
Q

What is passive scavenging?

A

Into charcoal canister and released

233
Q

Veterinarians are at higher risk of pregnancy loss
Make sure ETT cuff is always properly inflated
Only turn vaporizer on after cuff is inflated
Make sure appropriate scavenging is used
Make sure anesthesia machine is checked before each case

A

After breaking iso, evaluate area, ventilate area, treat as hazardous waste, wash area with water, avoid skin and eyes, collect in plastic bags with respirators and gloves

Small spills can let evaporate, ventilate area, evacuate personnel

234
Q

Which induction drug is least likely to cause apnea?

A
