A
36
Q

What are the classifications of inhalant anesthetics?

A
  • volatile agents
  • non volatile agents
37
Q

What is the characteristics of volatile agents? What do they require? What drugs are in this category?

A
38
Q

What is the characteristics of non- volatile agents? What do they require? What drugs are in this category?

A
39
Q

What kind of drug is evaporated more easily?

A
40
Q

What is the blood: gas partition coefficient ? What does it indicate?

A

The measure of the solubility of an IA in blood as compared to alveolar gas (air).
This indicates the speed of induction. and recovery.

41
Q

What does a low blood:gas partition coefficient indicate?

A
42
Q

What does a high blood:gas partition coefficient indicate?

A
43
Q

What is the minimum alveolar concentration (MAC)?

A

The level where 50% of patients are prevented from responding to painful stimuli.

44
Q

The agent with the ______ potency has the lowest MAC.

A

Highest

45
Q

What may be alter MAC? What is important to remember about monitoring patients?

A
46

A
48
Q

What is characteristics of diethyl ether? Why is it not used anymore?

A
49
Q

What is characteristics of diethyl ether? Why is it not used anymore?

A

Can cause nausea. Now used more as solvents in labs.

50
Q

What is nitrous oxide?

A
51
Q

What inhalant anesthetics are no used in medicine? Why?

A
52

A
54
Q

What are the 2 most commonly used inhalant anesthetic agents in North America?

A

Isoflourane and Sevoflourane

55
Q

What are the properties of isoflorane and sevoflurane?

A
56
Q

Does isoflurane and sevoflurane have a high blood:gas partition coefficient? Which is faster?

A
57
Q

Which is more potent, isoflurane or sevoflurane? What does this help determine?

A

Isoflurane is more potent - this helps us determine initial vaporizer setting.
