26
Q

2 things to keep in mind about sevoflurane?

A

less airway reactivity, theoretical renal considerations

27
Q

2 things to keep in mind about desflurane?

A

fast-track agent, airway problems

28
Q

3 things to keep in mind about halothane?

A

only useful for tetralogy of fallot, maintains SVR and relaxes RV infundibulum, improves pulmonary blood flow

29
Q

What is coronary steal?

A

complete blockage of one coronary artery and partial blockage of another. in normal situations the blocked artery gets collateral flow. however, coronary steal is a theory that with isoflurane, the vasodilation decreases the MAP and flow going in to collateral flow is backfilling for the blocked artery which is not good and the patient becomes ischemic

30
Q

What do you want to do to prevent coronary steal?

A

keep MAP up

31
Q

6 characteristics of pancuronium?

A

vagolytic, sympathomimetic, rapid onset, long duration, no histamine, inexpensive

32
Q

4 characteristics of vecuronium?

A

stable HD, intermediate duration, no histamine, inexpensive

33
Q

5 characteristics of rocuronium?

A

faster onset, slightly vagolytic, intermediate duration (shorter than vec), no histamine, more expensive

34
Q

Drug of choice in patient with renal failure?

A

cisatracurium

35
Q

4 characteristics of cisatracurium?

A

Hoffman elimination, intermediate duration, no histamine, more expensive

36
Q

6 characteristics of succinylcholine?

A

rapid onset, short duration, hyperkalemia, myalgia, increased gastric pressure, histamine release followed by decreased BP

37
Q

3 situations commonly encountered on induction for open heart surgery?

A

hypotension, HTN/tachycardia, cardiac arrest

38
Q

Treatment for HTN/tachycardia on induction in open heart patients?

A

b-blockers or nitro, esmolol if tachy

39
Q

Antibiotics that you give for open heart surgery?

A

if >100 kg 1.5 g Vanc 2 hours prior to incision and RUN SLOWLY on the pump, zinacef 1.5 g 1 hour prior to incision

40
Q

What is amicar/aminocaproic acid? How does it work?

A

antifibrinolytic that is a lysine analog that binds to the lysine-binding sites on plasmin and plasminogen, thus inhibiting fibrin lysis. has some effect in preventing platelet disaggregation

41
Q

What is the dose of amicar?

A

5 g load over 30 min, then 1 g/h for duration of case

42
Q

Why is aprotenin currently off the market?

A

2 fold increase in renal failure, 55% increase in MI rates, 181% increased risk of stroke

43
Q

Describe positioning for open heart surgery?

A

supine (duh) with arms tucked, gel pads to elbows, towels around hands, sleds (to prevent tired residents from leaning on arms), bair hugger must go under patient and must make sure when you tuck the arms that you don’t cut off the airflow to the bair hugger

44
Q

What’s the butt check for the a line?

A

lean butt on a line arm to make sure it doesn’t dampen since it is likely that surgeon will lean on it during surgery

45
Q

Which side should the ETT be on and why?

A

left so RIJ for CL placement

46
Q

During induction and after you secure the ETT on the left side, what are the next 4 things you should do?

A

NG in and out, TEE in to stay, be certain you can reach foley bag, ether screen positioning (put towards head of bed, high, towards end of rail on table and tip back quite a bit, and make sure that if someone leans on it it won’t move)

47
Q

When comparing a PAC and CVC, what is one additional risk of a PAC?

A

rupture of pulmonary artery

48
Q

What are the RA, RV, PA, and PAOP landmarks for a PAC?

A

RA= 25 cm, RV=35 cm, PA= 45 cm, PAOP= 50 cm

49
Q

If you’re in to 60 cm w the PAC, what is happening?

A

you’re in too far and there is probably a kink somewhere, deflate the balloon and withdraw the catheter and readvance

50
Q

When do you know you’re in the RV outflow tract?

A

trace starts to change on upstroke of ventilation. the PA is right after RV outflow tract

51
Q

Normal mixed venous O2 sat according to this lecture?

A

67-77%

52
Q

What does mixed venous O2 sat reflect?

A

reserves left at the end of circulation; it is the oxygen content of mixed venous blood

53
Q

At what value of SvO2 do you expect loss of consciousness? And what value do you expect cellular death?

A

LOC

54
Q

You would expect an SvO2 of less than ____ if lactic acidosis had been left untreated?

A

50%

55
Q

As far as SVO2, what is more important when monitoring- the actual number or a trend?

A

trend

56
Q

Why does SVO2 rise with nitroprusside toxicity?

A

there is no O2 consumption going on because of poisoning by cyanide ions

57
Q

What is the equation to calculate SVO2?

A

SaO2 - [VO2/(CO x 1.36 x Hgb)]

58
Q

What is VO2?

A

oxygen consumption

59
Q

What is SaO2?

A

arterial oxygen saturation

60
Q

What are some causes of increased SVO2?

A

high CO (sepsis), artifact (wedged), anesthesia, paralysis, hypothermia, cyanide poisoning

61
Q

What are some causes of decreased SVO2?

A

increased O2 consumption, shivering, fever, stress

62
Q

What labs should you get before incision?

A

baseline glucose, ABG, ACT

63
Q

Is hypothermia due to drift okay? Why?

A

yes; it decreases MVO2
