Q

What is the Second Gas Effect?

A

First gas (N2O) rapidly goes into blood and pulls the second gas (Sevo) along with it –>

causes rise of second gas more quickly

How does Hypernatremia affect MAC?

A

Increases MAC

25

26
Q

At what MAC will 95% of patients not move?

A

1.2 MAC

99% @ 1.3 MAC

27
Q

What is MAC-awake?

A

50% of patients will respond to “Open your eyes”

0.3 MAC = Loss of Recall

28
Q

What is MAC-BAR?

A

MAC needed to block Adrenergic Response to Skin Incision

29
Q

What is MAC intubation?

A

Same as MAC-BAR - more gas than that needed for surgical incision

30

Breathing System Properties

32
Q

Factors involved in getting Gas from Lungs to Blood

A

Solubility of Gas to Blood

Cardiac Output

Alveolar to Venous Pressure Difference

33

Wht is the λblood:gas for Sevoflurane?

A

0.65

44
Q

What is the λblood:gas for Isoflurane?

A

1.4

45
Q

How does High Cardiac Output effect Gas buildup in the Alveoli?

A

High Cardiac Output slows gas buildup in the alveoli & induction because blood take up the gas too quickly

46
Q

How does Low Cardiac Output effect Gas buildup in the Alveoli?

A

Gas builds up faster in the alveoli because of less uptake by blood

47
Q

How does at Right-to-Left Cardiac Shunt effect induction?

A

Slows Induction d/t dilution of blood w/o any anesthetic

Q

How does Left-to-Right Cardiac Shunt effect Induction?

A

No Effect

49
Q

What is Diffusion Hypoxia?

A

When N2O is stopped abruptly and the patient is only breathing Room Air.

The N2O in the body is still diffusing into the Alveoli –> give 100% O2 for 5-10 min
