Megan's Guide Flashcards
parenteral routes of drugs
IV, IM, SC,etc
volatile anesthetics: cerebral blood flow
increase vasodilation, decrease vasc resistance, increase CBF, increase ICP
opioids: metabolism
Fent, Remi, Morphine, Meperidine
fentanyl 75% lungs
remi: plasma/tissue
morphine: gluc acid hepatic/renal
meperidine 90% hepatic
midazolam: first pass metabolism
50% first pass
local anesthetics: target channels
Na channels
volatile anesthetics: coronary blood flow
iso is a potent coronary vasodilator
desflurane and CO2 absorber
carbon monoxide, from dry dessicated absorber
bupivicaine toxicity
A lower dose of bupivicaine than lidocaine will produce Cardiovascular collapse
Pregnant patients may be more sensitive
Cardiac resuscitation is more difficult after bupivacaine Cardiotoxicity potentiated by acidosis and hypoxia
uptake and distribution: alveolar PP
uptake = solubility x CO x (PA-PV)
opioids: side effects
pruritis, N/V, urinary retention, vent despression
local anesthetics: metabolism
amides: liver CYP450
esters: cholinesterase enzymes
opioids:best for neurological assessment post-op
remifentanyl
desflurane and heart rate
increased due to SNS stimulation
local anesthetics: nodes of ranvier
2-3 blocked will stop the action potential
compound A formation
sevo interation with CO2 absorbers, higher levels seen in Baralym vs soda lime, nephrotixin in rates, use flows higher than 2
EMLA components
5% lidocaine, 5% prilocaine
Induction drugs: hiccups
methohexital (brevitol), etomidate
benzodiazepine-ion channel effect
hyperpolarization
induction drugs: cortisol secretion
etomidate
inhaled agents: bone marrow suppression
nitrous oxide
Induction drugs: propofol method of action
decrease GABA dissociation
opioids: histamine release
morphine, meperidine
opioids: potency
MMHAFRS
opioids: remi metabolism
plasma cholinesterase
opioids: seizure
meperidine or normeperidine with renal failure
local anesthetics: cardiotoxicity
circumoral numbness, tinitus
dibucaine number
80
propofol: additives
glycerol burns, disodium edetate is bacteriostatic
opioid: side effects, glucagon
tx biliary coloc 2mg IV
ketamine: tx for emergence delirium
benzos
thiopental redistribution
effects 5-10 minutes bc of redistribution
benzodiazepine: clinical effect
20%: anxiolytic, 30% sedation, amnestic 60% unconscious
opioid: dynorphon receptors
kappa
inhaled agents: metabolism
exhalation, biotransformation, transcutaneous loss(hal - sevo - iso - des - n20)
opioids: renal failure
alfentanyl
dose of etomidate
0.2-0.3mg/kg
induction drugs: causes analgesia
ketamine
duration of naloxone
30-45 minutes
local anesthetic: effect of epinephrine
increase duration due to vasoconstriction
inhaled anesthetics: MH
don’t use
local anesthetics: cauda equina syndrome
serious potential complication of spinal anesthesia
local anesthetics: methemoglobemia
benzocaine/prilocaine (ortholuidine is the metabolite that causes methemoglobinemia); decreases oxygen carrying capacity of hemoglobin, oxidation of hemoglobin to methemoglobibemia, neonates at higher risk, normal metHbB is less than 1%, pulse ox will read 85, treat with methylene blue 1-2 mg/kg
induction drugs: effect of ICP
thio and etom decrease ICP, prop and ketamine increase ICP
chloroprocraine: contraindicated in
spinal
premedication in children
0.5mg/kg versed PO
midazolam: drug interactions
synergistic with opioids
induction drugs: myoclonus
etomidate
volatile anesthetics: preservatives
halothane has thymol
volatile anesthetics: reactive airway
don_t use des, use sevo
maximum dose of bupivacaine
225mg with epi, 175 mg w/out epi
