CNS Flashcards
N2O
MAC -105% quick, smooth induction good analgesia minimal skeletal muscle relaxation stimulate sympathetic tone- maintain cvs function
elevate intracranial pressure, pneumothorax, depress bone marrow, neuropathy
Diethyl ether
inflammable, irritant giod analgesia marked skeletal muscle relaxation prolonged induction N, V, retching, eye congeetiin, sore tracheq, burns on face reflex stimulation of respiration sympathetic tone- maintain cvs function
halothane
potent (2-4/0.5-1)
relax uterus, intestine somewhat
reduce intracellular Ca, vagal stimulation- cvs functions decreased; no baroreceptor reflex- no reflex stimulation of heart
sensitize heart to Adr - arrhythmia
vasodilation (CO2)- brain; alveoli dilate - v:p mismatch
dilate bronchi - given to ASTHMA ppl
decreased urine
hepatitis
malignant hyperthermia (ryr1 )
29% METABOLISM
isoflurane
irritant less potent quicker action direct vasodilation (Coronary: steal) sympathetic stimulation uterine/sk muscle relaxation NO pupil dilation, light reflex loss no seizure - neurosurgery
desflurane
with N2O and O2 irritant low solubility- short action steeper dose response sympathetic stimulation direct vasodilation uterine, skeletal muscle relaxation
sevoflurane
I>S>D (pk, pd)
3% metabolised
quick induction/recovery
direct vd
no sympathetic stimulation- fall in bp
enflurane
seizure
thiopentone sodium iv - common induction
given with atropin, ms relaxant
ultra short acting
high lipid solubility (undissociated form)
alkaline solution - irritant- lrynx spasm
wide distribution
accumulates
redsitribution elimination 3 min, hepatic metabolism 8-12 hours
vasodilation - cvs collapse
reflex changes
vc in brain
arrhythmogenic
halothane
sympathetic stimulation
N2O, ether, isoflurane, desflurane
atropine and thiopentene
react chemically - not in same syringe
acute intermittent porphyria
thiopentone
naroanalysis
thiopentone
methohexitone sod.
more potent, quicker briefer action, EXCITEMENT common during recovery and induction
propofol i.v
unconsciousness in 15-45 secs, last for 5-10 min
propofol (with fentanyl) IV + lidocine
no airway irritation - used in asthmatics
asthmatics - general anesthetics
propofol, sevoflurane, halothane, ketamine
propofol adr
induction apnea, vasodilation, cvs normal and depression, barorelfex suppression, respiratory
acidosis, lipemia, heart failure
sympathetic stimulation
manage cvs function
etomidate
less potent anesthetic, relaxant tc
4 min action
BZD as general anesthetic
conscious sedation
