0.1-0.2mg/kg IV
Versed dose for pre-op kids?
0.5mg/kg oral (20mg max)
Versed MOA?
binds to GABA receptor increases the frequency of chloride channel opening, resulting in postsynaptic membrane hyperpolarization and neuronal transmissions is inhibited.
Versed Elimination half-time?
Half-life 1-3 hours
Versed onset IV?
30-60 sec.
Versed Peak IV?
2-6 min.
Does Versed pass through the BBB?
Yes
Versed is supplied in the vial as what concentration?
5mg/ml or 2mg/ml
Reversal for Versed?
Flumazenil
If Versed is given for paradoxical vocal cord motion and/or strider post surgery, how much will you give?
0.5-1mg IV
How fast should you push Versed?

Trade name for Fentanyl?
Sublimaze
Classification of Fentanyl?
Opioid Agonist
Contraindications to Fentanyl?
If elderly or hypovolemic, reduce dose.
Crosses the placenta and may produce depression of respiration in the neonate.
May have prolonged respiratory depression after cessation of TD patch.
Induction dose of Fentanyl?
50-100 IV mcg is normal
Why do we give Fentanyl before intubation?
attempt to blunt circulatory response to direct laryngoscopy.
Why is Fentanyl given before or during surgery?
blunt sudden changes in level of surgical stimulation.
Analgesia dose of Fentanyl for adults?
1 to 2 mcg/kg
Epidural bolus dose of Fentanyl, and infusion rate?
bolus: 1 to 2 mcg/kg (same as analgesic dose)
infusion: 2 to 60 mcg/hr
Spinal dose of Fentanyl?
one time dose of 0.1-0.4mcg/kg
Fentanyl MOA?
Opioids mimic the actions of enkephalins, endorphins, and dynorphins (endogenous ligands) by binding to opioid receptors, resulting in activation of pain-modulating (antinociceptive) systems.
Causes analgesia and anesthesia.
Fentanyl IV onset?
within 30 sec.
Epidural/Spinal onset of Fentanyl?
4-10 min.
Duration of Fentanyl:
IV
Epidural/spinal
IV 30-60 min.
Epidural/Spinal 4-8 hours
Reversal for Fentanyl?
Narcan 0.2 to 0.4 mg IV
Fentanyl typically comes supplied in a vial as what concentraiton?
250mcg/5ml
Trade name for Propofol?
Diprivan
Classification of Propofol?
Sedative/Hypnotic
Contraindications with Propofol?
lipid metabolism disorder
sensitivity to sodium metabisulfite (can cause anaphylasis)
Caution in the elderly, debilitated (low blood pressure obviously) and cardiac-compromised patient (L sided heart disorders)
if allergic to eggs, soy, or peanuts some controversy exists if those patients should have propofol
Propofol dose for Induction?
1.5-2.5mg/kg IV
Propofol maintenance Anesthesia dose?
100-300mcg/kg/min
Propofol dose if used for antiemetic or to treat neuropathic pain?
10-15 mg
MOA of Propofol?
Increases GABA affinity for GABAa receptor. This decreases the rate of disassociation of the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA from the receptor and increases the duration of the GABA-activated opening of the chloride channel which leads to hyperpolarization of cell membranes (inhibition of the cell).
(keeps the chloride channel open longer)
Elimination half time of propofol?
30min. - 90 min.
Propofol Onset?
RAPID onset that is dose dependent, less than 1 min.
Peak: Propofol?
1 min.
Duration of Propofol?
15-45 min. depending on dose.
What may you want to tell someone before you IV push Propofol?
May cause burning or pain at injection site.
How long can you keep an ampule of propofol, when does tubing need to be changed and why?
Strongly supports growth of E-coli & Pseudomonas aeruginosa. It is recommended that the contents of an unused ampule be discarded after 6 hours, and in the ICU the tubing and any unused portion be discarded after 12 hours.
Renal and Liver issues in relation to Propofol use?
No evidence of impaired elimination in patients with liver cirrhosis.
Renal dysfunction does not influence the clearance of Propofol.
Color of urine with prolonged propofol use and why?
Prolonged infusions may result in excretion of green urine reflecting the presence of phenols. This does not alter renal function.
IOP and propofol use?
Propofol is associated with significant decreases in intraocular pressure that occur immediately after induction of anesthesia. (Intubation would increase IOP, so propofol lowering it is a good thing.)
With prolonged high dose infusion of propofol what metabolic issue can occur?
Lactic acidosis
Propofol is typically supplied in a concentration of what out the vial?
200mg/20ml

fasciculation dose is 10% of a full dose given before propofol dose when using succs.
intubating dose: 0.6-1.2mg/kg
