16
Q

Clinical presentation of propofol infusion syndrome:

A

Acute refractory bradycardia leading to asystole and at least one of the following:
- Metabolic acidosis (base deficit > 10 mmol/L)
- Rhabdomyolysis
- Hyperlipidemia
- Enlarged or fatty liver
- Renal failure
Lipemia may be an early sign

17
Q

Treatment for propofol infusion syndrome:

A

Supportive.

D/C propofol, maximizing gas exchange, cardiac pacing, PDE inhibitors, glucagon, ECMO, and renal replacement therapy

18
Q

Which induction agent is most likely to cause PONV?

A

Etomidate (30-40% incidence)

19
Q

What is the primary pathway of etomidate metabolism?

A

Hydrolysis

20
Q

Etomidate causes adrenocortical suppression by inhibiting:

A

11 beta-hydroxylase

21
Q

Two best treatments for treating an episode of acute intermittent porphyria:

A
  • Heme arginate

- Glucose

22
Q

Which anesthetic agent is is least affected by alterations in plasma protein binding?

A

Ketamine

23
Q

At the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor, ketamine is the antagonist of:

A

Glutamate

24
Q

Ketamine administration does not cause:

A

xerostomia

25
Q

Cardiovascular side effects of Ketamine administration:

A

SNS stimulation

Direct myocardial depression

26
Q

Respiratory side effects of Ketamine administration:

A

Bronchodilation
Intact pharyngeal/laryngeal reflexes
Spontaneous respirations usually preserved
Increased salivation

27
Q

CNS side effects of Ketamine administration:

A
Dissociative anesthesia
Analgesia
Emergence delirium (treated with BZPs)
Increased cerebral blood flow
Neuroapoptosis in the developing brain
28
Q

Eye side effects of Ketamine administration:

A

Nystagmus
Increased intraocular pressure (only with high doses)
Increased ocular muscle tone

29
Q

Which anesthetic agent is most likely to increase oxygen consumption in the brain?

A

Ketamine

30
Q

What is the initial dose of Flumazenil?

A

0.2 mg IV

31
Q

What are repeat doses of Fluamazenil?

A

0.1 mg IV in q1min increments

32
Q

What kind of drug is Flumazenil?

A

Competitive GABA-A receptor antagonist
Very high affinity but short DOA (30-60 min)
Thus, may need repeat doses to prevent resedation

33
Q

Which anesthetic agents produce an active metabolite?

A

Ketamine

Midazolam
