CNS 3 - Anesthetics Flashcards
This is described as having INCREASE tolerance to pain AND DECREASE perception to pain
ANALGESIA

Specific Drug. Dosage. Clinical situation
Described as having no recall of events
Amnesia
Alcohol effect to the heart.
Depression of myocardial contractility
Smooth muscle effect of alcohol
Vasodilation.
Direct smooth muscle relaxation
Thiamine deficiency associated with alcoholism causes what

What organs are affected with acute alcohol consumption?
CNS.
Heart.
Smooth muscle
What organs are affected during chronic alcohol consumption?
Liver and GIT Blood Fetal alcohol syndrome Immune system Increased risk of cancer
Binge drinking causes what heart problem?
Arrythmias
What anemia can be derived from chronic alcoholism?

Sedative-hypnotics
Phenothiazine - alpha 1
Activation of CYP2E1 is triggered with acute or chronic alcoholism.
Chronic
Alcohol has what effect on anti depressants.
Additive effect
Alcohol does what on OHA and vasodilator effects
Potentiates
What cancers are commonly associated with alcoholism?
Stomach, mouth, pharynx, larynx, esophagus, liver, breast
What electrolyte must be monitored during hypoglycemia and ketosis?
Phosphate level
K and Magnesium
What must be given to all cases of alcoholism?
Thiamine
What can be used for detoxification on alcohol withdrawal?
BDZ
What must be prevented in patients having alcohol withdrawal?
SAD
Seizure
Arrythmia
Delirium
Among anxiolytics used in alcohol withdrawal which can be used in patients who have compromises liver function.
Short acting. Lorazepam.
Preferred BDZs for alcohol withdrawal.
Long acting. Diazepam. Chlordiazepoxide
With what kind of drugs can concentration effect can be seen
Low MAC and more soluble
The more soluble (mod to high) the drug is in blood there is a significant increase in arterial tension. True or false.
True
Low blood coefficient with increase rr will lead to a slight increase in arterial tension
True
Opiod administration slows the onset of anesthesia
True
Increased pulmonary flow increases arterial tension specially for more soluble drugs.
False. Inversely
High AV difference fastens onset
False. Indirectly proportional
Anesthetics accumulate in tissue over time but more slowly to where
Muscle and Skin
Is AV difference synonymous with increase extraction fraction in tissues thus decrease uptake to the brain
True
Frequently abused by dentists
Nitrous oxide
Rarely results to hepatitis
Halothane
Pungent that leads to coughing and systemic effects
Desflurane
Mabaho si Ate Dess.
Reacts with silica or co2 absorbents
Sevoflurane
S - ilica
What compound is formed with the combination of silica and sevoflurane. It effect?
Olefinic compound or compound A. Nephrotoxic
Is it true that anesthetics shortens labor?
No. Prolonged. Since it relaxes uterine muscles
Halothane is also associated with HYPOTENSION. True or false?
True
This drug sensitized the myocardium to catecholamines thus leading to arrythmia
Halothane
A complication arising from combination of halothane and nm blockin agents such as succinylcholine
Malignant hyperthermia
The pathophysiology lies with increase calcium release from RYR1 receptor
Malignant hyperthermia
What do u give for OD of depolarizing agent (succi)
Pseudocholinesterase
What do u give for nondepolarizing nm blocker OD
AChE inhibitors
During anesthesia, wof increasing icp and pco2 sinc patient may have no s/sx
True
Which has a faster onset. Inhaled or intravenous
IV, even with rapid inhaled anesth
IV agents are commonly used for induction.
True
Is propofol adequate as sole anesthetic when combined with nitrous oxide for opd procedures?
True
What makes IV drugs good for OPD procedures?
Short / rapid recovery
A barbiturate that is mainly used for induction
Thipental
