Pharm Anesthetics, Kinder II Flashcards
what barbituates are used for IV anesthetic
thiopental and methohexital
MOA thiopental and methohexital
GABAa R increase channel opening duration
inhibit excitatory too
which barbituate has shorter elimination
methohexital
CNS effects thiopental and methohexital
dose dependent CNS depression
no analgesia
which barbituate anesthetic cannot be used for anticonvulsant
methohexital
respiratory effects thiopental and methohexital
depressors
transient apnea
use of thiopental and methohexital
induction anesthesia
propofol used more
what benzos are used perioperatively
midazolam
lorazepam
diazepam
MOA benzos
GABAa increase sensitibity to GABA and enhance inhibitory NT
benzos can be terminated by administration of what
flumazenil
what benzo is suitable for coninuous infusion
midolazam
CNS effects benzos
anticonvulsants- status epilepticus, alcohol withdrawal, local anesthetic induced seizure
resp effects benzos
severe resp depression if given with opioid
therapeutic use benzos
produce anxiolysis and anterograde amnesia
MOA etomidate
GABA like effects thorugh GABAa and Cl channels
metabolism etomidate
urine excretion and bile
CNS effects etomidate
cerebral vasoconstrictor
dec blood flow and ICP
CV effects etomidate
minimal hemodynamic effects! good for those with compromised cardiac contractility prior to anesthesia
endo effects etomidate
adrenocortical suppression
inhibits 11bhydroxylase for cholesterol –>cortisol
use of etomidate
alternative to propofol or barbituates for those with conmprmised cardiac contractility
MOA ketamine
inhibition of NMDA R
