-Sedation in ICU
-Short procedures

↓ICP, BP, HR, CO, SVR and RR
hypnotic, antiemetic, and anticonvulsant, amnestic
Antipruritic
-No analgesic or muscle relaxant effects
-hepatic + extra- metab - green conj in urine

Av Eff:
Dose dependent hypotension (impair barorfx)

Hypnotic effects
↓ Intracranial pressure
Anticonvulsant effects
Little to no effect on the cardiovascular system
= Anesthesia for patients with hemodynamic instability
No analgesic or muscle relaxant effect

13
Q

Ketamine

A

Ideal emergency anesthesia for polytrauma patients; ICU sedation
Short painful procedures (e.g., fracture reduction)
Treatment-resistant asthma
Treatment-resistant depression

NMDA receptor antagonism → dissociative anesthesia (state with analgesia, intact reflexes, spontaneous breathing, amnesia, and no complete loss of consciousness)
sympathomimetic effects: increased BP, HR, CO
Increased cerebral blood flow, ↑ Intracranial pressure
ANALGESIA!!
#Bronchodilation - Treatment-resistant asthma
Acute psychotomimetic effects: disorientation, hallucinations, vivid dreams, nightmares (BDZ to prevent), nystagmus, ↑ Oxygen demand and ↑ pulmonary arterial pressure,
↑ Salivation, emetogenic

15
Q

Thiopental

A

Iv induction (esp., short procedures, in case of risk of raised intracranial pressure during the operation - for brain edema)
Sedation for electroconvulsive therapy (e.g., methohexital), in status epilepticus
Convulsion during or after anesthesia

80% protein bind!!
Twelve % free unionized
↓ ICP, as well as sedative, hypnotic, and antiepileptic effects
High lipid solubility (rapid distribution into fat)

rapid onset of action due to quick transfer across the blood-brain barrier → brief recovery time due to redistribution into skeletal muscles and adipose tissue

Little to no analgesic or muscle relaxant effects
Decreased IOP 40%,

Hypotension, respiratory depression, apnea
COMPENSATORY tachy<3
Laryngospasm, bronchospasm (due to histamine release)
Myoclonus
Painful injection
Visual hallucinations
Vivid dreams
Bradycardia, arrhythmias
Polphyric crisis, anaphylactic
Endothelial damage when intra-arterial inj
↓ Intracerebral blood flow
Cytochrome P450 induction

Contraindications:

Hypersensitivity
Severe cardiovascular decompensation; conditions in which a decrease in blood pressure would be hazardous
Porphyria
Addison disease
Liver or kidney disease
Severe anemia
Thyroid disorders
Myasthenia gravis
Asthma

Q

Thiopental doses

A

Induction 3-7 mg/kg iv
Single dose induce rapid gen.anesthesia>5-10 min duration

17
Q

Metoclopramide

A

D2 antagonist, serotonin receptor antagonist
Central antiemetic effect at the area postrema
Peripheral antiemetic effect in the gastrointestinal tract (prokinetic effect); causes increase in :
Gastric contractions
Duodenal and jejunal motility
Resting tone of the lower esophageal sphincter
Together with decreased pylorus sphincter activity allows food to pass more quickly through the stomach and the small intestine
No influence on colon motility
