Ex2 IA Emergence

Question 1

Elimination of volatile anesthetics

Answer 1

washout

Question 2

Elimination of anesthetic is primarily determined by

Answer 2

solubility of the agent

Question 3

Emergence from a ______ soluble agent occurs faster

Answer 3

poorly soluble

Question 4

Desflurane emergence occurs ______ than Isoflurane

Answer 4

Faster

Question 5

A patient will not wake up until _____% of the anesthetic has been eliminated

Answer 5

80-90%

Question 6

Recovery of inhaled anesthesia is dependent on

Answer 6

Solubility, Cardiac Output, Minute Ventilation

Question 7

Faster emergence will occur with _____ cardiac output

Answer 7

higher

Question 8

Faster emergence will occur with _____ minute ventilation

Answer 8

larger

Question 9

Faster emergence will occur with _____ agent solubility

Answer 9

lower

Question 10

Describe the process of the movement of IA in body during emergence

Answer 10

As the concentration of the anesthetic in the bloodstream decreases below the partial pressure of the anesthetic in the tissues, the tissues will begin to release the agent into the blood where it can be eliminated by ventilation
