7
Q

Explain peds being HR dependent

A

-Peds don’t have the startlings law; the ability to increase force of contraction to maintain CO.
-The under developed myocardium/ immature contractile elements = decreased contractility
- Poorly compliant ventricles; can’t increase contractility to overcome elevated afterload.
- with increased SVR in an underdeveloped heart it cant compensate for the increased pumping needs/ increased workload
- maximum contracltity in neonates because of increased beta stimulation and thyroid hormone
- have a higher resting tesion but develop less stress during transition

Q

During stress / hypoxia what changes does the heart make

A

hypoxemia, hypercarbia, and acidosis the heart reverts back to utilizing the vessels; R->L shunting, arterial hypoxia- > further increases PVR -> worsening shunting and persistent pulm htn.

Parasymathatic nervous system -> hypotension

Q

How is surfactant produced

A

starting at 20 weeks gestation from type 2 pneumocytes

surfactant lowers the air liquid interfacial tension and reduces the opening pressure necessary to aerate the alveoli and prevent alveolar collapse.

usually adequate in neonates borns after 35 weeks.

Q

How to detect R-> L shunting

A

-Preductal and postductal oxygen saturation by simultaneous use of two pulse oximeters, RUL (preductal) and and lower limb (postductal).
-Preductal arterial saturation of at least more than 3% above the postductal saturation = R-> L shunting.
-This results in decreased oxygen delivery to peripheral tissue and hypoxia and slows uptake of volatiles-> prolonged inhalation induction

104
Q

what are caudal blocks used for

A

Used for procedures that require blockage of lower thoracic, lumbar and sacral nerves (T10-S5)
Can be used to block upper thoracic incisional pain
Used for circumcision

105
Q

Medication used for caudal block

A

0.1-0.25% bupivicaine with epi
0.1 % can have 4-6 hrs of analgesia with minimal motor blockade

0.05ml/kg/dermatome to blockade
Morphine 0.02-0.05 mg/kg = 8-24 hr analgesia
Fentanyl 1-2 mcg/kg w/ LA

106
Q

Caudal block anatomy

A

The hiatus extends from the sacral cornu to the fused arch of the 4th sacral vertebra

151
Q

Succinylcholine in peds consideration

A

Consider the hyperkalemia undiagnosed muscular dystrophy in children under 8yo. IV calcium is the first-line treatment.
Less than 5 yo -> bradycardia/ asystole. (pretreat with atropine 0.02 mg/kg)
The increased dose requirement of succinylcholine in younger
patients is thought to result from its rapid distribution into an
enlarged volume of extracellular fluid rather than an altered
response to the action of the drug at postjunctional AChRs. The
fact that expressing the dose of succinylcholine in mg m22
abolishes the differences in dose requirements between the age
groups supports this suggestion, as extracellular fluid volume and
surface area bear a close relationship throughout life

Sniffing position.
Deepen anesthetic; PROP, inc flows/ crank sevo
Peep 60-80cmh20 (increases the transverse dimension of the airway
Visualize obstruction if unable to rule out cause
Ant & upward displacement of mandible/ open mouth
Larsons maneuver
IV lidocaine 1-2 mg/kg (1-2 min onset)
IV succ 1mg//kg, IM succ 4 mg/kg

IV steroids/ EPi
Epi; 0.05-0.5 mcg/kg given every minute

183
Q

How does decreasing peep help with bronchospasms

A

Decreasing Peep decreases Autopeep by decreasing the work of breathing from the diaphragm and decreasing the pressure gradient required to overcome auto-Peep.

184
Q

treatment/ prevention of post intubation croup

A

acepic or nebulized epi. Dexamethasone 0.5 mg/kg, microcuff; high volume, Low pressure elliptical balloon more distally, no murphy eye, provides uniform surface contact
Age 1-4 = increased incidence (1%)- increased subglottic airway growth
Intubations > 1 hr
Previous croup increases the chances

185
Q

recent URI follow up questions

A

How long?
Clear discharge? Mild cough, no fever = okay to proceed.
Need ear tubes? Don’t instrument airway and do ear tubes w/ in 2-3 days.

Continue anticonvulsant therapy
Latex allergy is common (spina bifida or congenital urologic abnormalities)

187
Q

Explain retinopathy of prematurity

A

Arrest of normal retinal vascular development in exchange for neovascularization and fibrous tissue formation of the retina and vitreous humor
Common cause of vision loss in childhood
Retina continues to mature until 42-44 weeks gestation
Hyperoxia results in abnormal vessel growth and worsening of blindness
Avoid nitrous
5 stages

188
Q

What age is apnea of prematurity a concern

A

Respiratory control matures at 42-44 weeks post-conceptional age
Before maturation; hypoxemia depresses ventilation
After maturation; hypoxemia stimulates ventilation
Infants less than 60 weeks post-conceptual age should be admitted for 24 hr observation with an apnea monitor
Former preterm infants less than 44 wells postconceptual age risks; subglottic stenosis, perioperative respiratory complications, apnea
Pt with anemia hct < 30 are prone to apnea incidences

189
Q

apnea of prematurity diagnosis and treatment

A

Apnea spells lasting 20 seconds resulting in bradycardia and cyanosis
Are they taking caffeine or aminophylline (risk of toxicity)?
Prophylactic caffeine to prevent postoperative apnea after general anesthesia
Methylxanthines; Caffeine 10mg/kg half life 5 hrs . Theophylline (8mg/kg).
May needs CPAP or even mechanical vent
For GA use short acting anesthetics (sevo/ des) and opioids (fent/ sufent).

A

2 weeks- 2 months of age (3rd week of life) diagnosis

192
Q

s/s of pysloric stenosis

Projectile Vomiting = first sign. No bile contents are present
Postprandial vomiting ; baby is hungry
Gastroenteritis = inflammation of the digestive tract
Dx; barium swallow/ultrasound (target or donut sign)

193
Q

Pyloric stenosis anesthesia considerations

A

Full Stomach -> RSI
IV access prior to OR
Correct electrolyte depletion and dehydration
Hypochloremic, hypokalemia metabolic alkalosis
Loss of water and choride and hydrogen ions -> dehydration
Hypercarbia so resp can correct it
Severe cases can lead to metabolic acidosis
Kidneys excrete HCO3 to maintain normal pH, the kidneys excrete hydrogen and potassium to maintain euvolemia and retain Na+
Can lead to paroxysmal polyuria
Preoperative alkalosis can lead to hypoventilation/ increase PCO2 (Apnea monitor or first 24 hrs postoperatively)
Awake extubation
Watch glucose
Give atropine and watch for increase HR to ensure IV is in
RSI; PROP/ SUX/ TUBE + criciod pressure
NO NARCOTICS (impairs spont ventilation)
10-12 Fr Salem sump reinsert (red rubber catheter) 4-5 times and change the infant’s position (awake)
Desflurane after airway secured ( strong depth of anesthesia.) reflex tachycardia. (6-9% = surgical relaxation)
Correct electrolytes, give fluid bolus = good CO.
Dextrose fluid and electrolyte balance
IV fluid is usually D5NS w/ 20 meq/ L of K @10-20 ml/kg/hr till electrolytes are normal

194
Q

197
Q

Latex allergy considerations

A

Susceptible; spina bifida, meningocele paraplegics, OR techs, high allergic types, frequency surgical pts, urinary tract anomalies (require frequent catheterization)
Also allergies to bananas, chestnuts, avocados, kiwi, pineapple
