Factors that increase speed of induction
low BGC (low solubility of agents), decreased CO, increasing delievered concentration,
VAAs effects on ventilation
depresses ventilation mediated directly through medullary centers and indirectly through intercostal muscle function, RR tends to increase, TV tends to decrease …. drive to breath from hypoxia abolished at 1 MAC
VAAs effect on airway resistance
- decrease airway resistance by relaxing bronchial smooth muscle
NOTE: VAAs are potent vasodilators
VAAs effect on hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction
reduce effect of HPV
VAAs effect on brain
increase CBF and ICP
CMRO2 decreased (except for N2O) and autoregulation is impaired
VAAs effect on renal system
decrease RBF, GFR, and UOP
How are VAAs metabolized
des and iso metabolized less tha 1%
Sevo metabolized around 5%
