Ex2 IA System Effects Flashcards
Effect on MAP
IAs:
Dose-dependent decrease (increasing concentrations)
N2O: no change or increase
N2O + Iso = less of a decrease in BP
Effect on HR
Iso/Des: dose dependent increase
Sevo at <1.5 MAC: decrease; >2 = normal
Effect on rhythm
Prolonged QT
Sevo should be avoided in prolonged QT
Effect on ventilation
Dose dependent depression of ventilation (Dec. response to increased CO2/decreasedO2)
Shallow breathing, increased rate, Bronchodilation
Inhibit HPV (esp > 1-2 MAC)
HPV
Hypoxic Pulmonary Vasoconstriction
Effect on chest wall
Decreased FRC, atelectasis in dependent areas
Effect on CNS
N2O: increased CBF, modest increase in CMRO2
IAs: decreased CMRO2, increased CBF
All volatiles cause a cerebral ______ in a dose dependent manner
dilation
All volatiles _______ ICP at concentrations exceeding _____ MAC
increase; 1 MAC
What is impaired at concentrations > 1 MAC?
Autoregulation
Cerebrovascular response to ______ is maintained
PaCO2
Which type of procedure would avoid IAs?
Spinal
CNS Effects
Dose dependent depression of amplitude/increase latency of SSEPs (& AEPs)
EPs may be abolished at _____ MAC
1
At what concentration do volatiles reduce the reliability of MEPs?
Low concentrations
Effect on EEG
Increased amplitude, burst suppression > MAC 1.5
Which IAs are epileptogenic?
Enf > Sevo
Volatiles ____ NDMRs (and DMR)
potentiate
