Q

best amnestic

not gas

A

midazolam

34
Q

increase CO would result in the most effect on which VIA

slow induction

A

isoflurane

35
Q

highest MAC

A

desflurane

36
Q
disadvantages of this gas include 
susceptible to bio transformation 
reacts with soda lime and baralyme
increases fluoride concentrations  
expensive
A

sevoflurane

37
Q

Steps to overpressure/deepen quickly

A

switch to manual
increase gas/VIA flow
increase fresh gas flow-O2
hyperventilate-bag

38
Q

2-5% metabolized

A

sevoflurane

39
Q

don’t use in pneumothorax, belly surgery, sinus surgery, sitting craniotomy, tympanoplasty with grafting

A

nitrous oxide

40
Q

undergoes least biotransformation of the halogenated agents

A

Desflurane 0.02%

41
Q

which gas doesn’t cause MH

A

nitrous oxide

42
Q

fire

A

sevoflurane

43
Q

avoid in OB surgery not related to birth

A

nitrous oxide

44
Q

LMA are great for what patient population? Why?

A

LMA

less airway trauma, noxious stimuli

45
Q

on the chart which choice is lung wash in ?
A-B
b
b-c

A

A-B

46
Q

indirectly NE release

A

nitrous oxide

47
Q

VIA cause cerebral vasodilation and increase CBF.

What are you going to do about it?

A

hyperventilate to decrease CO2, causing vasoconstriction (CO2 is a potent vasodilator),
resulting in not increasing CBF

48
Q

most pungent

A

desflurane

49
Q

rapid high concentration administration of this gas increases the sympathetic action

A

desflurane

50
Q

takes a big dump in the lungs when discontinued

A

nitrous oxide

51
Q

renal toxicity

A

sevoflurane

52
Q

works like nitrous oxide

-receptor

A

ketamine

53
Q

methione, B 12, neural tube defect, pregnant ladies

A

Nitrous oxide

54
Q

if you use an LMA use less ?

A

OPIODS

55
Q

give to patient with low EF

not gas -

A

etomidate

56
Q
advantages of this gas include 
good muscle relaxant 
decrease cerebral metabolic rate 
minimal biotransformation
maintains cardiac output
A

isoflurane

57
Q

DNA synthesis problems
