Q

Versed MOA

A

(CNS depressant) MOA - binds to GABA receptor exerts its actions by modulating chloride channels (GABA receptor increases the frequency of chloride channel opening, resulting in postsynaptic membrane hyperpolarization and neuronal transmissions is inhibited)

Q

Fentanyl MOA

A

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.

Q

Propofol MOA

A

Increases GABA affinity for GABAa receptor. This decreases the rate of disassociation of the inhibitory NT, GABA from the receptor and increases duration of GABA opening of chloride channel which leads to hyperpolorization of cell membrane. (inhibition of cell)

42
Q

SCh MOA

A

Partial agonist against the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) and depolarizes (opens) the ion channels. This opening requires the binding of only one molecule of SCh to the α subunit. The other α subunit can be occupied by either acetylcholine or SCh. Because SCh is not hydrolyzed by acetylcholinesterase, the channel remains open for a longer period of time than would be produced by acetylcholine, resulting in a depolarizing block (sustained depolarization prevents propagation of an action potential)

No, and bc it does not have histamine release it makes the drug more suitable for hemodynamically unstable patients.

1mg/ml

122
Q

Is the duration of the block of Vec. dependent on liver, kidney, or plasma function?

A

duration of block is dependent on liver function.

123
Q

Vec produces a metabolite known as 3-OH, what is the significance of that?

A

80% of blocking potency is from the metabolite 3-OH and long term administration can have lingering effects because of this metabolite

What type of elimination does Nimbex go through?

A

Hofmann Elimination (Hepatic)

125
Q

Does Nimbex cause histamine relsease?
