Q

AMS in metabolic disorders

A

in a 2yo, would likely have shown some sx previously, or would have hx of recent illness that triggered it

17
Q

pupillary changes of acetaminophen and aspirin

A

none

18
Q

effect of cholinergics on VS, skin, neuro, abd

A

lower HR, sweaty skin, constrict pupils, hyperactive BS

19
Q

effect of ANTIcholinergics on VS, skin, neuro, abd

A

incr HR/hyperthermia i.e. fever?, dry skin, dilate pupils, hypoactive BS

20
Q

effect of sedatives/hyponotic on VS, skin, neuro, abd

A

HR, BP, RR depressed, altereted sensory exam, hypoactive BS

21
Q

effect of opiods on VS, skin, neuro, abd

A

HR, BP, RR depressed / hypothermia, constricted, hypoactievs BS

22
Q

effect of sympathomimetics on VS, skin, neuro, abd

A

HR, BP, RR eelvated, hyperthermia, diaphoretic, dilated and hyperreflexia , hyperactiv BS

23
Q

key cardio finding in TCA ingestion

A

hypotension

24
Q

SSRI ingesiton

A

serotinin syndrome like - diarrhea, myoclonus, hyperfelxia, shivering, ataxia **not carcinoid!?

25
Q

presentation of anti histamine OD

A

anti cholinergic similar to TCA but TCA has more cardiac issue

26
Q

decongestant OD

A

sympathomimmetic picture

27
Q

agitation and tachycardia but there is no mydriasis. what is the OD of?

A

aspirin

28
Q

TCA pathophys and most common cause of deaht with this OD

A

blocks mAch R and periephal alpha receptors(?). refractory hypotension. is antichol.

29
Q

octreotide use with respect to insulin

A

blocks insulin release thus can e used in sulfonylurea OD refractory to dextrose

30
Q

AG metabolic acidosis suggests what OD

A

salicylate (nsaid, aspirin) toxicity

31
Q

most common accidental ingestion

A

tylenol

32
Q

methods to enhance toxin elimination

A
Syrup of ipecac
Activated charcoal
Gastric lavage
Cathartics
Hemodialysis
Hemoperfusion.

-could also do things like urinary alkalization for things like salicylate intox

33
Q

what antidote for ingestions NOT due to small molecules or heavy metals and what contraindications

A

activated charcoal , stops absorption o fpoison by pooping out- contraindicated if loss of protected airway reflexes due to aspiration risk thus consider selective intubation
-if antichol used, additional doses of charcoal needed due to further decr GI motility as a result of anti chol activity

34
Q

cathartic agent use

A

in OD, increases bulk of feces/laxativey

35
Q

NG lavage

A

has not demo’d a good consistent effect

36
Q

syrup of ipecac

A

not first line due to side effects - can aspirate the vomit if AMS like pt does in this case. also has potential for cardiac and seizures.

37
Q

EKG findings in TCA OD

A

The EKG shows an irregularly irregular rhythm.
P waves are not distinctly seen.
There is a wide QRS.
The QT interval is prolonged.

38
Q

life threatening dysrhythmia seen in severe TCA toxicity is? what is the wide complex tachycardia seen in general TCA fox?

A

A wide-complex tachycardia is the characteristic life-threatening dysrhythmia seen with severe TCA toxicity. The wide-complex tachycardia seen with TCA toxicity, however, is often not ventricular tachycardia, but sinus tachycardia with a wide QRS / aberrant conduction

39
Q

tx appraoch to TCA toxicity

A

cardiac monitoring, alkalinaation w Nabicarb of serum, antiarrhthmics (not 1a like quinidine, dispyramide, procainamide or 3), tx hypotension, tx seizures

40
Q

peak time effects of TCA and glipizde

A

7-8h for tca, 2-3h for glipize after ingestion

41
Q

tca vs decongestant overdose differnces in terms of BP, pupils and presence or absence of fever and sweating

A

unlike TCA overdose, decongestant overdose will cause hypertension, constricted pupils, fever/sweating
