Q

___MAC will cause anesthesia in 100%

A

1.5

21
Q

Which inhalant has a an analgesic effect but is not potent enough to produce surgical anesthesia

A

NO2

22
Q

How does NO2 effect cardiovascular system

A

Minimal effects, it will depress myocardial function but also increase SNS stimulation so effect is minimal

23
Q

How does NO2 affect BP

A

Decreases

24
Q

Diffusion hypoxia is associated with which anesthetic and what do you do to prevent this

A

NO2
Administer 100% O2 for short time when N2O is turned off to prevent hypoxia

25
Q

How does Isoflurane affect cardiovascular function and BP

A

Depresses cardiovascular function and decreases BP

26
Q

How does Isoflurane affect respiratory rate and tidal volume

A

Decreases both

27
Q

With Isoflurane cerebral blood flow is maintained at what MAC

A

Less than 1.2

28
Q

T or F: Isoflurane has muscle relaxant properties

A

True

29
Q

Isoflurane is labeled for what species

A

Dogs and horses

30
Q

What anesthetic can be used in combination with O2 for status epilepticus that are refractory to benzodiazepine.

And what should you be cautious about when using this gas to control seizures

A

Isoflurane and keep below 1.2 MAC or will increase ICP

31
Q

Why is Isoflurane not good for induction

A

May causer bronchospasm

32
Q

What anesthetic gases can produce malignant hyperthermia

A

Isoflurane and sevoflurane

33
Q

How does sevoflurane affect cardiovascular system, BP, and ventilation

A

Decrease stroke volume, depresses myocardial contractility, decreases BP, decreases ventilation

34
Q

What type of vaporizer is required for deslfurane

A

Heated

35
Q

Desflurane irritates the ___ and may cause ___ (like iso)

A

Airway, bronchospasm

36
Q

How does desflurane affect TV and RR

A

Decreases TV and increases RR

37
Q

How does desflurane affect BP and HR

A

Decreases BP, but increase HR which maintains perfusion

38
Q

How does desflurane affect ICP and what can you do to prevent

A

Increase ICP- hyperventilate to prevent

39
Q

What does malignant hyperthermia cause

A

Hypepyrexia and muscle rigidity

40
Q

What is tx for malignant hyperthermia

A

IV Dantrolene and cooling

41
Q

What anesthetic is preferred in cats

A

Ketamine

42
Q

In cats propofol can cause ___if given repeatedly

A

Heinz Body anemia

43
Q

What can etomidate cause in cats

A

Hemolysis

44
Q

Propofol, ketamine and tiletamine all cause ___in horses and pretreat with ___

A

Excitement, pretreat with alpha2 agonists

45
Q

In horses ___can be combined with xylazine, guaifenesin and acepromazine

A

Alfaxalone

46
Q

___anesthetics are not preferred in horses

A

Inhalation

47

A

Sevoflurane
