33
Q

Where does precedex produce hypnosis and anagesia?

A

Hypnosis in locus ceruleus

Analgesia in spinal cord

34
Q

Does propofol potentiate muscle relaxants?

A

Nope

35
Q

Ketamine MOA?

A
  • blocks the opening of the NMDA channel and prevents further ion influx → inhibits the excitatory response of glutamate → inhibits memory formation
    • When glutamate binds to the NMDA subtype of the glutamate receptor, the channel opens and allows Na+, Ca++ to enter the cell and K+ to exit
    • Flux of these ions depolarize the postsynaptic neuron and initiate an action potential.
  • depresses transmission of impulses in the medial medullary reticular formation
    • this is important for transmission of the affective-emotional components of nociception from the spinal cord to higher brain centers
  • binds with opioid (mu, delta, kappa) → subanesthetic doses (0.2-0.5 mg/kg)
  • binds to monoaminergic receptors → antinociceptive (at descending levels)
  • binds to cholinergic receptors → acts as an antagonist (antimuscarinic effects)
  • inhibits neuronal Na+ channels → produces a modest local anesthetic action
  • inhibits Ca++ channels → cerebral vasodilatation
36
Q

Precedex CNS effects?

A

Dec CBF (no change in ICP/ CMRO2)

Dec MAC of volatile agents and opioid requirements

38
Q

A
  • Apnea after induction dose
    • Faster & larger doses will produce more apnea (if given slowly the risk is avoided)
  • ↓ TV, ↓ RR
  • ↓ ventilatory response to CO2 & hypoxia
    • PaCO2 rises → ↓ pH
  • Bronchodilation in COPD patients → propofol good these patients
    • Unless sodium metabisulfite (generic) is present which can lead to bronchospasms
  • Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) remains intact
39
Q

to carboxylic acid

FAST biotransformation

40
Q

    • Liver function doesn’t effect rate of metabolism
    • safe for liver and renal patients
  • renal excretion
    • CRF doesn’t affect clearance
    • less than 1% excreted unchanged
  • first pass effect
