anesthetic considerations with hydrocephalus
- intubation technique depnds on condition - if present with vomiting and lethargy = RSI 2. avoid succinylcholine due to increased ICP 3. keep intubated with PEEP post op if preop apnea and bradycardia was present
causes of bradycardia intraoperatively
- younger = more susceptible 2. insufflation 3. INH agent on too long
tx of intraop bradycardia
- tx cause (insufflation = stop insufflation; gas on too long = turn gas down) 2. determine severity 3. glycopyrrolate 4. atropine *if < 6 months will start with atropine
tx for emergence delirium
- parental presence 2. distraction technique 3. precedex 4. propofol 5. physostigmine (0.5 mg/kg)
T/F: postop shivering is uncommon with infants and younger children
TRUE
tx of shivering?
- meperidine (most common) 2. precedex 3. zofran 4. clonidine
increase cause for PONV
- eye surgery 2. ear surgery 3. intraop opioids 4. fluid def
tx of PONV
- zofran (0.1-0.2 mg/kg) 2. promethazine (0.25-1 mg/kg) 3. decrease use of opioids, use non-opioid 4. adequate hydration
development of the heart in utero: primitive heart tube is present by day __________, it is contracting by day ___________, circulating by day _________, and complete by day _____________
15; 22; 26; 63
if the primitive heart tube does a levo twist (L-loop) this leads to __________________
abnormal heart; R ventricle on left side of heart and left ventricle on right side of heart
Primitive heart tube should twist in the _____________ direction for normal heart development and the ventricles to be on the appropriate side of the heart
right (D-loop)
examples of left to right shunts
- VSD 2. ASD 3. PDA 4. anomaly of coronary arteries 5. endocardial cushion defect
HD goals for L –> R shift
- avoid increase in SVR 2. avoid decrease in PVR
examples of right to left shunt
- TOF 2. eisenmeger syndrome 3. ebsteins anomaly 4. tricuspid atresia
HD goals with R –> L shunt
- maintain SVR 2. decrease PVR
L –> R shunt is known as _____________ and R–> L shunt is known as _____________
acyanotic; cyanotic
what is the sequelae of a L –> R shunt
increased pulmonary blood flow (overcirculation) –> pulmonary HTN –> eventual R.sided hypertrophy and eventual heart failure
what is the sequelae of R –> L shunt
decreased pulmonary blood flow –> hypoxemia –> Lsided volume overload –> LV dysfunction
what are the 3 types of ASD
- ostium venosum (upper) 2. ostium secundum (middle) 3. ostium primum (lower)
which type of ASD is the most common
ostium secundum (75%)
