Thiopental sodium (Pentothal) induction dose
3-5 mg/kg
Thiopental sodium (Pentothal) half life?
3-8 hours
Methohexital (brevital) induction dose
1-1.5 mg/kg
What receptor do barbiturates act on?
GABAa receptors
Etomidate induction dose?
0.2-0.3 mg/kg
What is a big draw back of etomidate?
Suppresses cortical adrenals leading to suppression of intrinsic steroid production.
What are some properties of Methohexital (Brevital)?
Ultra short acting, rapid redistribution, highly protein bound, very lipid soluble
If a drug is highly lipid soluble, will it have a faster or slower onset of action?
Faster
What is one downfall to Methohexital (brevital)?
Hangover effect
What type of drug is etomidate?
Non-barbiturate hypnotic
What are some properties of etomidate?
Highly lipid soluble, undergoes redistribution but rapid return to baseline
What side effect does etomidate have?
Can cause extra pyramidal movements due to the dis inhibitory effect on sub cortical structures - can cause myoclonus. Can also cause PONV
What type of drug is propofol?
2,6 diisoporopyl pheno
What are some properties of propofol?
Ultra short acting, rapidly cleared, highly lipid soluble
How is propofol metabolized?
Cytochrome P450 sx to 4-hydroxyl propofol (active) then glycerin ideation or sulfation. Clearance exceeds hepatic blood flow implying an extra hepatic mechanism that is not yet identified (pulmonary?)
What type of drug is ketamine?
Phencycidine (PCP) derivative
What are some properties of ketamine?
Slow onset, can be used for preemptive analgesia
Where does ketamine work?
Thalamus and limbic systems - no competitive antagonist at NMDA receptor.
What are some side effects of ketamine?
- Increased airway secretions
- dissociative hypnotic, vivid dreams, hallucinations possible
What are some possible benefits of ketamine?
Increases CPP via increases in MAP, bronchodilator
What type of drug is dexmedetomidine (preceded)?
Selective A2 agonist
How does dexmedetomidine work?
Decreases presynaptic NE levels (central), hyper polarizes post synaptic neural membranes (peripheral)
What is the loading dose of precedex?
1 mcg/kg given over 30 minuets
What is the infusion dose for precedex?
0.2-0.7 mcg/kg/hr
