A

Sympathectomy

Loss of Temp & Pain Sensation

Preserved Motor & Proprioception

28
Q

What form is required to cross the Lipid Bilayer regarding pK?

A

Unionized, therefore Local Anesthetics closer to Physiologic pH have FASTER onset

29
Q

Which particular Local Anesthetic does NOT ionize based on pH and has an Unknown mechanism?

A

Benzocaine - Weak Acid - pKA 3.5

30
Q

A ________ pH Lessens sting of Local Infiltration

A

A HIGHER pH Lessens sting of Local Infiltration

31
Q

How is Local Anesthetics Distrubuted throughout the body?

A

Lungs 1st

High Perfused Tissues 2nd
<span>(Heart, Brain, Kidneys)</span>

Low Perfused Tissue 3rd
(Muscle & Fat)

32
Q

Which type of Local Anesthetics are more widely distributed throughout the body?

A

Amides

33
Q

Which Local Anesthetic has a higher chance to Crossing Placenta: Lidocaine, Bupivacaine, or Ropivacaine?

A

Lidocaine since it’s NOT as protein-bound

34
Q

What happens when Local Anesthetics cross the placenta?

A

Local becomes more Ionized & cant get back out = Fetal Local Toxicity from Ion Trapping

35
Q

The Potency of Local Anesthetics is related to ________, while the Onset is more related to ______

A

The Potency of Local Anesthetics is related to LIPID SOLUBILITY, while the Onset is more related to IONIZATION

36
Q

How does Protein-Binding of Local Anesthetics affect Duration of Action?

A

More Protein-Binding = Stronger Attachment & Longer Duration

37
Q

Which Amide is the fastest to be Metabolized?

A

Prilocaine

38
Q

Which Amides are the slowest to be Metabolized?

A

Etidocaine

Bupivacaine

Ropivacaine

39
Q

How are Amides metabolized versus Esters?

A

Amides = Hepatic Clearance

Esters = Plasma Cholinesterase

40
Q

Which Ester is the fastest to be metabolized?

A

Chloroprocaine

41
Q

Which Ester is the slowest to be metabolized?

A

Tetracaine

42
Q

What Ester metabolite can cause allergic reactions?

A

Paraaminobenzoic Acid (PABA)

44
Q

What can Inhibit the activity of Plasma Cholinesterase?

A

Liver Disease

Increased BUN

Parturients

Chemotherapy

45
Q

What is the function of Epinephrine with Local Anesthetics?

A
