26
Q

A poorly soluble agent will have a _______ Induction & a _______ Emergence

A

A poorly soluble agent will have a faster Induction & a faster Emergence

27
Q

How does a High Cardiac Output affect speed of Induction?

A

High Cardiac Output = Slowed Induction

28

31
Q

What is the Second Gas Effect?

A

Large intake of first gas (N2O) causes increase rate of intake of second gas (agent)

32
Q

What is Diffusion Hypoxia?

A

When a lot of N2O is leaving the body into the lungs creating Hypoxia

43
Q

What serves as an O2 sources and supports Combustion?

A

N2O

44
Q

How does Halothane affect the Cardiovascular System?

A

↓Contractility

↓Cardiac Output

↓BP & SVR

Vagal Stimulation –> Bradycardia –> Give Atropine

45
Q

Which gas was previously the most commonly used for children?

A

Halothane - sweet odor d/t thymol preservative

46
Q

Why should caution be used when giving Epinephrine with Halothane?

A

Halothane makes the heart more sensitive to catecholamines causing dysrhthmias

A

Isoflurane & Desflurane

48
Q

Which gas uses a special heated Vaporizer?

A

Desflurane - heated to 2 atm

49
Q

Which gas causes Coronary Steal?

A

Isoflurane - blood shunted away from damaged vessels to normal vessels

50
Q

Which gas is Nonpungent and is considered good for inhalation induction?

A

Sevoflurane - kids can tolerate high levels w/o hemodynamic changes

Rapid Induction & Emergence, but can cause delerium in kids

51

A

Sevoflurane

52
Q

Characteristics of Enflurane

A

↓Contractility

↓SVR

↓Renal Blood Flow - Avoid in Renal Failure & Seizure
