Hypnotics Flashcards
Propofol Class
Hypnotic
Propofol Indications
induction, maintenance of anesthesia, MAC, anticonvulsant, antiemetic
Propofol Mechanism of Action
mimics GABA @receptor, directly activates cl- channels –> hyper-polarizes the postsynaptic membrane
Propofol Dosing
Induction of GA: 1-2.5 mg/kg
Maintenance of GA: 25-300 mcg/kg/min IV
Sedation: 25-100 mcg/kg/min
Antiemetic 10-20 mg can repeat every 5-10 minutes, or start infusion of 10 mcg/kg/min
Propofol onset/duration/metabolism/elimination
Onset w/ induction dose: 30 seconds
DOA w/ induction dose:5-15 minutes
Metabolized: hepatic and extra-hepatic (lungs), no active metabolite
Excreted: Kidney
Propofol Considerations
no evidence that it should be avoided with egg or soy allergy contains sulfites painful w/ injection thrombophlebitis bacterial infection risk
Propofol Systemic Effects
CNS: Rapid onset and emergence Raises seizure threshold Reduces cerebral blood flow, CMRO2, ICP and IOP No analgesia Myoclonus may occur
Pulmonary: Dose dependent respiratory depression Infusion will decrease TV and increase RR Decrease reflexes Shifts CO2 response curve to the right Bronchodilation
Cardiovascular:
Decreases BP r/t decrease SNS and vasodilation
Decrease myocardial contractility and SVR
Decrease venous tone - > lower preload
Metabolism and Elimination:
Hepatic and extra hepatic metabolism
Renally excreted
Propofol has the potential to change urine color (green or cloudy)
Muscles:
Does not prolong neuromuscular blockade but can offer adequate intubation conditions
Ketamine Class
phencyclidine derivative
Ketamine Uses:
GA induction, GA maintenance, MAC, analgesia , antidepressant
Ketamine MOA:
Non-competitive antagonist at NMDA receptor ion channels.
Ketamine blocks the open channel, inhibiting the excitatory response to glutamate.
Provides amnesic and potent analgesia.
Produces a “dissociative state” by depressing the cerebral cortex and thalamus and stimulating the hippocampus.
Bind w/ opioid, MAO, serotonin, NE, muscarinic and sodium channels
Ketamine inhibits neuronal sodium channels (producing a modest local anesthetic action) and calcium channels (causing cerebral vasodilatation)
Ketamine pre-medication
benzo and antisaligogue
Ketamine Dose/Onset/DOA for IV induction
1-2mg/kg
onset: 2-5minutes
DOA: 10-20 minutes (may require 1 hour for full orientation)
Ketamine IM induction dose/onset
4-6mg/kg
onset:20 minutes
Ketamine Sedation/multimodal dose
Sedation: 1-3mcg/kg/min or 0.5-1mg/kg boluses as needed
Multimodal infusion: 3-5 mcg/kg/min
Ketamine metabolism
P450 enzyme in liver, chronic ketamine use induces enzymes that metabolize it
Active metabolite: norketamine 1/3 as potent and renally excreted
Excretion: kidneys
least protein bound of all induction agents
