Q

How does IABP work

A

Polyurethane Catheter into femoral artery and into descending aorta. Positioned distal to left subclavian but proximal to renal arteries

Helium inflates in time with mechanical cardiac cycle

Balloon deflated in systole when AV valve opens

Ballon inflates in diastole when AV valve closes

Inflation linked to mechanical cardiac cycle either times via ECG or IABP waveform or can be timed.

Support can slowly be weaned I.e 1 to 1 down to 1 to 3

Q

What effect does IABP in diastole

A

Ballon inflates in diastole

This causes increase in diastolic blood pressure, increase in coronary blood flow and increase in myocardial oxygen delivery.

Q

What effects of IABP in systole

A
IABP deflates in systole 
Reduces SVR 
Reduces systolic blood pressure 
Reduces LV workload 
Reduces myocardial oxygen demand

Q

Effects of drugs of HPV

A

Volatiles and direct vasodilator inhibit HPV
Vasoconstrictors ie norad prefentially constrict vascular beds that have normal oxygen tensions - indirectly inhibits HPV

Ketamine fentanyl thio propofol no effect on HPV

Q

Adverse effects CPB

A

Haemodilutiin (minimise circuit and prime volume)
Consumption coagulation factors (herparin)
Roller pump haemolysis(?centrifugal pump)
Activation leukocytes and d base balance (leucocyte filter)
Unctrolled blood loss (cell salvage)
Air embolism (vented blood filters)

17
Q

Centrifugal and roller pumps which is non occlusive

A

Centrifugal non occlusive and blood can go in either direction.
Preload and afterload dependent

18
Q

oxygenation in CPB

A

Membrane oxygenation
Other types disc
Bubble

19
Q

Minimal extracorpeal circulation aims to reduce prime volume with suction blood separation - how

A

Lack of reservoir
Lack of cardio time Suction

Closed circuit and involves little or no blood air contact
Reduced haemodilution and coagulation cascade

20
Q

Pre operative assesment of lung resection

A

Clinical ie more than 4 mets
Pulmonary function tests ie fev1 more than 1.5l in lobectomy and 2l pneumonectomy
Post op predicted values fev 1 and dlco more than 40%
Functional test ie 6minute walk test more than 400 yards
Cpex at more than 11 and vo2 max less than 15

21
Q

Management hypoxaemia in OLV

A
Fio2 to 100 
Check ventilator and breathing apparatus 
Check DLT position 
Peep to dependent lung 
CPAP to top lung 
Intermittent two lung ventilation 
Clamp PA
22
