Mostly Prop, some K, NSAIDS Flashcards
What class is prop and why is it different from other IV sedatives?
: Sedative/hypnotic
because it is a hypnotic
Induction dose prop
1.5 – 2.5 mg/kg IV
how long does it take to become unconscious from prop?
about 30 seconds
[moves from stage 1 to stage 3 fast]
Major advantage of prop
Rapid awakening with minimal residual CNS effects
[patients can go home fast]
Chemistry of prop
1% solution in soybean oil, glycerol and egg lecithin (a long-chain triglyceride)
why is the chemistry important of prop?
Supports bacterial growth
Can increase plasma triglyceride levels
preservatives of diprivan
disodium edetate & NaOH
preservative of generic prop?
metabisulfite
Propofol known for pain at injection site, so it is common to mix with lidocaine. What is risk of this?
Propofol + lidocaine – coalesced oil – risk of pulmonary emboli
causes genital burning
aquavan due to formaldehyde
Brand of prop that causes increase injection site pain
ampofol
MOA of prop
GABAA receptor agonist (inhibitory neurotransmitter)
GABAA stimulation = hyperpolarization of cell membranes which causes receptor to not work
Uptake of prop
lungs and liver (cytochrome P-450)
Elimination ½ time prop
0.5 – 1.5 hrs
Context sensitive ½ time of prop
<3 hrs = 10 min
>3 hrs = 25 min
>8 hrs = 40 min
metabolism of prop?
Glucuronidation (liver) is major metabolic pathway
Excretion of prop?
excretion mostly through kidneys however Liver and/or renal disease does not impair elimination.
can you give prop to laboring moms?
YES! Crosses placenta but rapidly cleared from neonatal circulation so baby will be breathing, just make sure mom is stable
difference in peds dose of prop?
Require ↑ dosing d/t ↑ Vd and faster clearance (you can give like 4-5X dose)
difference in elderly dose of prop?
↓ dosing d/t ↓ Vd and slower clearance
sedation dose of prop?
25 – 100 mcg/kg/min
Agent of choice for short, endoscopic cases
prop
Maintenance dose prop?
100 – 300 mcg/kg/min (↓ with opioids and volatiles)
cool effect of prop that we like to use?
antiemetic! almost equal to zofran
how much prop to use as an antiemetic?
Small dose (10-15 mg) in PACU & with chemo induced N/V
Why is prop an antiemetic???
Possibly a direct depressant effect on vomiting center
5 non-anesthetic effects of prop
- antiemetic 10-15 mg
- antipruritic 10 mg
- anticonvulsant 1mg/kg
- bronchoconstriction
- Analgesia
dose of 1 mg/kg or greater of prop is useful as
↓ seizure duration during ECTs
anticonvulsant
what causes the bronchoconstriction seen with prop?
Metabisulfite (generic propofol) can cause bronchoconstriction (asthma, smokers)
what type of pain is prop decent for?
Not good for nociceptive pain (somatic, visceral); some analgesia for neuropathic pain (abnormal CNS processing of painful stimuli)
Neurologic effects prop
↓ CMRO2, ↓ cerebral blood flow, ↓ ICP
Cardiovascular effects prop?
↓ HR, ↓ SVR, ↓ cardiac output Commonly offset by laryngoscopy, intubation or LMA insertion
causes Extreme ↓ BP with prop admin
hypovolemia, LV dysfunction, elderly
why is prop good for ablations?
no SA or AV node effects or QTc prolongation
Profound bradycardia and/or asystole
Propofol Related Bradycardia
Increased incidence of Propofol Related Bradycardia
surgeries dealing with muscles of eyeball and oculocardiac reflex
treatment of prop brady?
glycopyrolate, epi
who is more prone to prop related brady?
younger more prone, remember they are HR dependant
oculocardiac reflex is
stimulation of cranial nerve V and X - vagal nerve
Dose-dependent Respiratory depression with prop causes
apnea, decrease RR and TV
what is prop enhanced and offset by?
Enhanced by opioids
Offset by surgical stimulation
what type of shift of hypoxic response curve will you see with prop?
downward (neg effect)
what is a positive effect of prop that we do not want to interfere with?
Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV)
what causes benign green urine with no renal dysfunction with prop?
Phenol
Prolonged infusion of prop can lead to
liver injury and propofol infusion syndrome
benign cloudy urine with prop is caused by
uric acid
