the newer volatile anesthetics such as sevo and des are more water or lipid soluble?

A

water

117
Q

What would a lipid soluble gas mean for emergence?

less intestinal SA for absorption to occur

158
Q

What 2 things do you have to worry about with bariatric surgery in the head up position?

A

decreased venous return and decreased CO d/t venous pooling in lower limbs

159
Q

pneumoperitoneum does what to venous return and CO, intra abdominal pressure, and possibly ETT?

decreases venous return and CO; increases intra abdominal pressure and may cause ETT migration

160
Q

Signs of pneumoperitoneum??

A

high inspiratory pressures and PEEP

161
Q

162
Q

A

lipid soluble

163
Q

A

Na retention, increased blood volume, increased catecholamines

164

roux en y gastric bypass

166

reversal of comorbidities is greatest after which weight loss surgery?

A

LAGB

167
Q

this bariatric surgery is mostly formed on the super obese (BMI> 55)

A

biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch

168
Q

mechanical ventilation using what kind of support (volume or pressure) improves oxygenation in MO pts?

A

pressure

169
Q

A

anastomosis leak

170
Q

in obese pts undergoing surgery there is some evidence that alveolar recruitment maneuvers in presence of PEEP may improve what 2 things w out adverse HD changes?

A

oxygenation and respiratory system compliance

171
Q

A

(weight in pounds/height in inches) x 73

172
Q

how to convert inches to cm

A

inches x 2.54

173
Q

hyperinsulinemia is bad for what 2 reasons?

A

1-increases amts of norepi which cause Na and Ca retention and hypervolemia; 2- adipocytes release angiotensinogen, which activates RAAS and contributes to Na retention and HTN

174

A

increased fibrinogen levels, chronic inflammatory state, increased abdominal pressure, immobility, polycythemia

175
Q

increased adipose tissue causes what 3 things to happen to liver which cause destruction?

intrahepatic triglycerides, impaired insulin activity, and release of inflammatory cytokines

176

A

water

178
