General and Local Anesthetics: reverse Flashcards
has a long half-life so it can produce “hang-over” effects after anesthesia has worn off
thiopental
general anesthesia that is an antiemetic
propofol
general anesthesia that is an anxiolytic
midazolam
induction for patients at risk for hypotension
etomidate
dissociative anesthesia
ketamine
conscious sedation
midazolam
significantly more nausea and vomiting than thiopental, increased post-surgical morbidity due to suppression of adrenocortical stress response
etomidate
parenterally administered general anesthetic that does not act on GABA receptors (what is it instead?)
ketamine (NMDA antagonist)
emergence delirium
ketamine
general anesthetic that causes no respiratory depression and is a bronchodilator
ketamine
side effects: respiratory depression/respiratory arrest
midazolam
maintenance only
desflurane
inhalational anesthetic that is not a respiratory irritant
sevoflurane
can be metabolized to fluoride ion in the liver –> renal damage
sevoflurane
moderate blood:gas coefficient
isoflurane
