Q

What is luxury perfusion?

A

These blood vessels are maximally vasodilated
resulting in maximal blood flow to the area & changes
in PaCO2 have no effect on is local blood flow when
normocapnia is present

Q

What is cerebral steal syndrome?

A

A PaCO2 increase results in vasodilation of normal
blood vessels that will shunt blood away from the
diseased area – hypercapnia

Q

What is the robin hood effect

A

During times of low PaCO2 vasoconstriction occurs but the diseased vessls stay dialated robbing the healthy tissue of CBF

Q

During CEA what causes sudden hypotension and bradycardia ? how can this be avoided? What Complication can happen from this treatment?

A

Manipulation of the carotid bodies resulting in a baro receptro reflex

Treated with 1 % lidocain applied to the carotid bifurcation

This can result in post op hypertension

Q

Renal Prop AAA

A

Renal insufficiency is common in these patients secondary to HTN DM and atherosclerosis repurfusion

Usually dry d/t radiology studies and bowel prep

18
Q

Heme Prop AAA

A

ASA if patient has CAD and DAPT should be bridged to shorter half life before procedure
Alcoholic have anemia
Coags, TC, and 6u PRBC ready
DVT prophylaxis

19
Q

Anesthesia Goals for AAA

A

Keep them warm
Keep HR slow
Avoid Anemai
Prevent HTN

20
Q

Response to Aortic cross clamping is directly related to …

A

Placement of clamp (usually infrarenal
Volume status
Cardiac reserve

21
Q

Application of Aortic clamp causes

A

Central Hypervolemia
shunting blood proximal to clamp causing ↑ in venous return

22
Q

Release of Clamp causes

A

Central hypovolemia

Capillary beds leak d/t rush of blood to the LE causing ↓ in venous return

23
Q

_______ above the clamp and _____ below the calmp

A

____HTN___ above the clamp and __Hypotension___ below the calmp

24
Q

27
Metabolic changes after Aortic Cross Clamp ↓ in... (3)
Total Body O2 Extraction Total Body CO2 Production Total Body O2 consumption
28
↑ in arterial BP above the clamp +Total body O2 consumption = What intraop intervention??
↓ Afterload or Shunts and aorta to femoral bipas -Sodium Nitroprusside -IA -Milirinone
29
↓ in arterial Bp below the clamp + ↓ in total body CO2 production = What intraop intervention??
↓ Preload Nitroglycerin OR Art to femoral bypass
30
↑ wall motion abnormalities and LV wall tension + ↑ mixed venous O2 sat = What intervention???
Renal Protecion -Fluid Administration -Manitol -Lasix -Dopamine -N-acetylcystine -Renal Cold perfusion
31
Pretreatment with an _______ was associated with a complete return of renal blood flow & glomerular filtration rate to baseline after the unclamping of the aorta, whereas in control animals the renal blood flow returned to only approximately 50% of baseline values
Pretreatment with an __ACE inhibitor___ was associated with a complete return of renal blood flow & glomerular filtration rate to baseline after the unclamping of the aorta, whereas in control animals the renal blood flow returned to only approximately 50% of baseline values
