Pseudocholinesterase def

Succinylcholine rapidly hydrolyzed by plasma pseudocholinesterase : only 10% reached NMJ
Def : large amt reached NMJ » inc paralysis

🌟 polymorphism in BCHE gene

  2. SSRIs, SNRIs
  3. TCA
19

21
Q

Synth of NTs - DA, NE etc

A

Tyrosine - L dopa - Dopamine - NE - Epi - Melanin

22
Q

Theophylline tox + Tx

A

~ caffeine : mild cortical arousal + insomnia
-N/V/D, abd pain, cardiac arrhythmia, SEIZURES

Tx:
activated charcoal.
Beta blockers (arrhythmia)
BDZ + phenobarbital (seizures)

23
Q

blood-gas partition coefficient

A

Low B-G partition coefficient = low solubility : meaning more free to produce effect in blood : quickly saturated : inc partial pressure :: rapid onset of action
Eg. N2O

High B-G partition coefficient = high solubility, less free in blood to produce an effect : partial pressure rises slowly :: slow onset of action
Eg. Halothane

24
Q

How is potency of inhaled anesthetics measured?

A

MAC : Min alveolar conc

  • conc of anesthetic in alveoli that renders 50% pts unresponsive to painful stimuli (ED50)

❗️Potency inv proportional to MAC ❗️

25
Q

What is added to local lidocaine?

A
  1. Lidocaine + Epi : vasoconstriction
    - dec local bleeding
    - prolonged duration of action of lidocaine since more remains at site of injection
    - dec systemic absorption: dec SE
  2. Lidocaine + Na bicarbonate:
    - dec pH : inc potency : dec pain at injection site
26
