Q

when starting ECT therapy it is usually done _________x/wk for ________ weeks

A

3; 12

22
Q

what is ECT used for?

A

management of psychiatric disorders like: schizophrenia, depression, mania

23
Q

Anesthesia goals with ECT

A
  1. lower seizure threshold/increase duration 2. preoxygenate 3. hyperventilate 4. prevent injury: bite gaurd 5. initiate seizure
24
Q

what med is the gold standard for induction of anesthesia for ECT procedure

A

methohexital 1-1.5 mg/kg

25
Q

what med other than methohexital can be used to induce anesthesia for ECT therapy

A

etomidate .15-.3 mg/kg

26
Q

how do you monitor seizure with succinylcholine with ECT therapy

A

inflate a blood pressure cuff on the ankle, prior to giving succ (will prevent succ from entering that foot.) –> give succ –> watch seizure activity on foot with the cuff

27
Q

what med can help decrease CV effects with ECT therapy

A

propofol

28
Q

what med can be used 10 min prior to seizure induction with ECT therapy

A

precedex

29
Q

minimum elements for providing anesthesia outpatient: CRNA checklist

A
  1. will BON allow CRNA to work with this type of physician 2. will liability insurance cover office anesthesia 3. does state have specific rules/regulations specific to office anesthesia 4. what class of pts, procedures, and anesthesia will be performed 5. are there est policies and procedures in place
30
Q

minimum elements for providing anesthesia in outpatient setting: MD checklist

A
  1. does MD have liability coverage? 2. current license? 3. current DEA # 4. does MD have hospital priviledges for this procedure 5. does pt have admitting priviledges at nearby hospital?
31
Q

in outpatient setting, who should be seen day before procedure instead of day of?

A
  1. ASA III/IV with severe systemic dz: CAD, CHF, valvular dz, htn, dm, Renal failure + dialysis 2. fraility 3. poor functional status
32
Q

T/F: routine testing results in better outcomes for patients presenting for ambulatory surgery

A

FALSE

33
Q

if pt develops an arrhythmia/cardiac arrest secondary to LAST, what meds should NOT be administered?

A
  1. vasopressin 2. CCB 3. BB 4. local anesthetics (lidocaine)
34
Q

if pt codes secondary to LAST, epi doses should be decreased to?

A

< 1 mcg/kg

35
Q

risk of morbidity and mortality in office based setting is ____________ greater than in ambulatory surgery center

A

10x

36
Q

what are the 4 broad categories of injury in office based practice?

A
  1. Respiratory 2. drug related 3 .CV 4. airway
37
Q

if doing outpatient cystoscopy procedure, what anesthetic technique should be used and why?

A

LMA + GA; bc cystoscope uses rigid scope, thus pt cannot cough or move!

38
Q

if do regional block for urologic procedure, what must you ensure?

A

that the block is high enough

39
Q

for lithotripsy, using regional block, at what vertebral level must the block be at or above

A

T10

40
Q

considerations with outpatient ortho procedures

A
  1. extremely painful - use multimodal technique 2. regional/peripheral block can help with PONV and pain 3. short acting neuraxial blocks can delay discharge home 2ndary to delayed resolution of block 4. impt for pacu rn to be trained on managing blocks 5. instruct patient on: rest, ice, compression, and elevation to manage pain at home.
41
Q

how can the 4 main causes of injury in office-based practice be prevented?

A
  1. better monitoring 2. better equipment 3. better policies/procedures 4. proper credentials of providers (ACLS/BLS) 5. emergency medications
42
Q

during an electrophysiologic ablation, how are intraoperative arrhythmias terminated?

A

the electrophysiologist will terminate the arrhythmia, (the purpose of the electrophysiologic ablation is for an arrhythmia to ensue, so the source can be located and terminated)

43
Q

how would you manage the airway for TIPS?

A

high risk of aspiration, so RSI would be best choice

44
Q

would would you induce anesthesia for TIPS procedure?

A

General anesthetic induction

45
Q

if patient is claustrophic or anxious going into MRI suite for procedure, you may need to administer ______________________

A

minimum to moderate sedation

46
Q

if give minimum to moderate sedation in the MRI suite, what is required?

A

FULL monitoring

47
Q

if a patient is recieving radiation therapy, it is important that anesthesia does what?

A
  1. ensure pt is deeply sedated 2. ensure they are immobile (NMB) 3. use agents tht give quick onset/recovery 4. anesthesia must leave the room before radiation is administered due to high doses.
48
Q

during a bronchoscopy or fiberoptic endoscopy what med should you administer to dry up secretions?

A

glycopyrrolate

49
Q

___________ surgery is performed to correct misalignment of extraocular muscles and realign the visual axis

A

stabismus surgery

50
Q

special considerations with strabisumus surgeries

A
  1. high risk of PONV 2. potential increased risk of MH 3. frequent incidences of oculocardiac reflex
