halothane’s chemical name
2-bromo-2-chloro-1,1,1-trifluoroethane
isoflurane chemical name
1-chloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethyl-difluoromethyl ethyl ether
desflurane chemical name
1-fluoro-2,2,2-trifluoroethyl difluoromethyl ether
sevoflurane chemical name

which volatile is not stable in moist soda lime
sevo
main advantage of increased fluorination
decreased solubility
factors that decrease MAC
- Age (decreases 6% per decade)
- decreased body temp
- pregnancy
- decreased CNS sodium
- depressant drugs (opioids, benzos, barbiturates, propofol, acute ETOH)
- IV lidocaine
- N2O
- clonidine & precedex
- some beta blockers & CCBs
- PaO2 < 38 mmHg
- BP < 40 mmHg
- bypass
- adenosine
Decreased MAC:
infants > children > neonates > adults
:)
for every 10 degree C decrease in temp, MAC of des decreases by:
almost ½
why does pregnancy decrease MAC
when does it normalize?
increased progesterone
normalizes 12-72 hrs postpartum
how do clonidine and precedex affect MAC?
decrease by decreasing CNS catecholamines & hyperpolarizing cell membranes in CNS
factors that increase MAC
- red hair (excess pheomelanin)
- increased CNS catecholamines (cocaine, ketamine, amphetamine)
- hyperthermia
- hypernatremia
factors that increase MAC
- red hair (excess pheomelanin)
- increased CNS catecholamines (cocaine, ketamine, amphetamine)
- hyperthermia
- hypernatremia
things that do not alter MAC
- gender
- duration of anesthesia
- PaO2 > 50
- PaCO2 < 80
- Hct > 10%
- BP > 40 mmHg
how is MAC-awake affected by age?
how is the ratio of MAC:MAC-awake affected?
MAC-awake decreases with age
ratio of MAC/MAC-awake is not affected by age as both decrease
what does a high MAC-awake:MAC ratio indicate?
poor amnestic and fast recovery
how do low-dose opioids affect MAC-awake and ratio of MAC-awake:MAC?
minimally affect MAC-awake
decreases MAC - increases MAC-awake: MAC and awakening should happen quicker
what is MAC-TE?
MAC at which there’s no coughing/bucking during suctioning, no movement or coughing within 1 min of extubation, and no breath-holding or laryngospasm after extubation
“MAC-intubation”
