Q

Nitrous Oxide

A

1 MAC=105%. Blood:gas 0.47, very insoluble in blood, rapid induction and emergence. Analgesic, 70-80% in O2 used.
GOOD: analgesia b4 anesthesia, little toxicity, rapid induction/recovery
BAD: weak agent, hypoxia may occur, closed air spaces may expand
Avoid in pt w. pneumothorax, obstructed middle ear, air embolus, obstructed bowel loop, intraocular air bubble, intracranial air

Q

Isoflurane

A

MC used inhalation anesthetic in US
1 MAC=1.4%, Blood:gas 1.4=relatively low, somewhat fast induction
GOOD: CO maintained, systemic vessels dilate causing sm dec in BP, arrhythmias uncommon, potent coronary vasodilator
BAD: more pungent than halothane, progressive respiratory depression

A

Blood:gas .69= relatively low, fast induction
GOOD: can be used for outpt anesthesia b/c of its rapid recovery profile
BAD: some reports of toxicity

Q

Dusflurane

A

Blood:gad 0.42, low, very fast induction. Very fast emergence, usu does not exceed 5-10 min.
GOOD: useful for outpt surgery d/t rapid onset and recovery. Not very fat soluble.
BAD: irritating to airway can cause coughing, salivation, bronchospasm. Low volatility=requires use of specially heated vaporizer. May evoke tachycardia.
Anesthesia Lecture

17
Q

Methoxyflurane

A

Blood:gas 12, highly soluble in rubber so special equipment needed, not used much anymore.
GOOD: very potent
BAD: extensive metabolism, may produce renal failure and nephrotoxicity.
Anesthesia Lecture

18
Q

Halothane

A

Blood:gas 2.3=relatively high, induction slow
soluble in fat
BAD: halothane hepatitis: immune response evoking hepatic necrosis, fever, nausea, rash, vomiting
Anesthesia Lecture

19
Q

Barbiturates (sodium thiopental)

A

IV
GOOD: little post-anesthetic excitement or vomiting, water soluble
BAD: respiratory and CV depression, no antagonist, slow recovery, no analgesia
Anesthesia Lecture

20
Q

Propofol

A

IV
GOOD: rapid metabolism and recovery, little accumulation, milk of amnesia as it produces a hypnotic and forgetful rest
BAD: not water soluble, no antagonist, no analgesia, cardiorespiratory depression, can elicit pain on initial injection.
Anesthesia Lecture

21
Q

Etomidate

A

IV
GOOD: ANTAGONIST available, anterograde amnesia, CV stability=is primarily used for pt at risk of hypotension.
BAD: accumulates=slow recovery, no analgesia, pain on injection
Anesthesia Lecture

22
Q

Ketamine

A

IV
GOOD: analgesia, NO resp depression=may inc BP, hypnotic state=dissociative anesthesia
BAD: inc musc tone and incidence of involuntary movements, hallucinations, adverse effects are less common in kids
