Q

Which volatiles trigger MH?

A

20
Q

Effect on Liver

A

Dose dependent reductions in hepatic blood flow, mild LFT elevations

21
Q

Severe liver injury may occur with _____

A

Iso, Des

22
Q

Effect of VAs on CO result in

A

Positive feedback —> VAs depress CO, decreased CO = more Pa; excessive depth of anesthesia may occur

23
Q

Anesthetic preconditioning

A

All VAs produce biphasic preconditioning on myocardium that rivals ischemic preconditioning (myocardial injury is limited after insult, fxn is preserved)

23
Q

Which IAs are pungent?

A

ISO, Des

24
Q

Pungency of an IA causes

A

Bronchoconstriction, airway irritation

25
Q

How to avoid effects of pungency

A

Small doses of opioids attenuate this effect

26
Q

Which VA potentiates roc most?

A

Des

27
Q

Liver effect from VAs is a result of

A

CYP450 metabolism results in trifluoroacetate — binds covalently to hepatocytes which triggers an immune response
hepatic necrosis*

28
Q

Do VAs effect the renal system?

A

Yes - Dose dependent decrease in renal blood flow, GFR, UO

d/t dec. BP/CO

29
Q

Nephrotoxicity is characterized by

A

Polyuria, hypernatremia, hyperosmolality, increased serum creat., poorly concentrated urine

30
Q

Renal Toxin _____ at levels _____

A

Inorganic F > 50 mmol/L

31
Q

Which VA may concern anesthetist with renal toxicity?

A

Sevo — metabolized to inorganic F

32
Q

Prolonged Sevo anesthesia ______ impair renal function

A

Does not

33
Q

How is compound A formed?

A

CO2 absorbents (K/Na hydroxide) react with Sevo

34
Q

Compound A

A

Nephrotoxin — proximal renal tubular injury

35
Q

Dose at which Compound A causes nephrotoxicity

A

50 ppm

36
Q

How do VAs effect skeletal muscles

A

Relaxation

N2O = rigidity at high concentration s

37
Q

When does MH manifest?

A

Not always immediate - Des: 3 hours post VA

38
Q

Effect of VAs on OB

A

Dose dependent decrease in uterine contractility/blood flow

39
Q

Effect of VAs on OB - modest vs substantial

A

Modest: 0.5 MAC
Substantial: >1 MAC

40
Q

Effect of VAs on Immune system

A
Depressed 
PMLs inhibited (inflammation)
41
Q

N2O effect on genetics

A

Teratogenic d/t inhibition of DNA synthesis (avoid in pregnancy; esp 1st trimester)

42
Q

Effects on Bone marrow function

A

N2O causes megaloblastic changes/agranulocytosis

D/t effects on Vit B — production of DNA/erythrocytes

43
Q

Chronic administration of N2O can lead to

A

Peripheral neuropathy - d/t vitamin B12 enzyme dysfunction, peripheral/spinal cord nerve degeneration (prolonged administration 15 days); and symptoms of pernicious anemia

44
Q

Effects of IAs on systemic O2 requirements

A

Decreased

45
Q

Des > ISO produces?

A

Carbon monoxide from degradation by CO2 absorbants

46
Q

Cost considerations of IAs

A
  • vapor pressure (mL vapor from each mL fluid)
  • potency
  • solubility
  • FGF (open or closed)
