Q

highest MAC?

A

nitrous oxide NO2; low potency = high MAC = fastest!

20
Q

malignant hyperthermia MOA?

A

ryanodine receptor defect… mucsle excitation from Ca release
after succinylcholine (IRREVERSIBLE).

21
Q

malignant hyperthermia sx?

A

increased end tidal, fever, tachycardia, rigidity, acidosis, hyperkalemia, rhabdomyolysis

22
Q

mgmt malignant hyperthermia?

A

dantrolene (10 mg/kg) inhibiting Ca release and decouples complex
cool, bicarb
glucose
supportive care.

23
Q

succinylcholine and hyperkalemia

A

causes more; (depol = release K)
so avoid in: burn, neurologic injury, neuromusclar disorders, SCInjury, trauma, renal failure)

24
Q

Hoffman effect?

A

degradation of drug in blood spontaneously.
nimbex.

25
Q

reverse nondepolarizing roc?

A

neostigmine/edrophonium: block Achase to increase ACh.
with atropine/glycopyrrolate to reverse overwhelming ACh.

26
Q

dose of local anesthetic?

A

0.5 cc/kg of 1% lidocaine.

27
Q

max dosing lido and bup

A

lido 4 mg/kg
bup 2 mg/kg

28

SE of meperidine demerol?

A

tremors, fasciculations, seizures (normeperidine) avoid in RENAL FAILURE.

29
Q

contraindication to epidural and spinal anesthesia?

A

hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, cyanotic heart disease (sympathetic denervation can cause decreased afterload which worsens conditions).

30
Q

epidural location for different thoracotomy vs laparotomy?

A

thoracotomy: T6-T9
laparotomy: T8-T10.

31

Na 130
K 4
Ca 2.7
Cl 109

33
Q

NS vs HTS?

A

Na 154 … 513
Cl 154 … 513

34
Q

calculate plasma osmolarity?

A

2Na + glucose/18 + BUN/2.8.
normal 280-295.

35
Q

fluid loss in major abdominal operations?

A

0.5-1L/hr.

36
Q

gastrointestinal losses by organ per day?

A

stomach 1-2L
biliary system 0.5-1L
pancreas 0.5-1L
duo 0.5-1L

37
Q

hyponatremia

A

FW restriction and NS
no more than 1 mEq/hr (8 per day) otherwise central pontine myelinosis

38
Q

DI

A

decreased ADH… lots of diluted urine, hypernatremic, high serum osm
etiology: head injury
treat: DDAVP (or free water if chronic)

39
Q

SIADH

etiology: head injury, carbamazepine, SSRI, cyclophosphamid, cipro, haldol, amiodarone, vincristine, vinblastine, cisplatin, bromocriptine
treat: conviaptan, tolvaptan
chronic: slow diuresis and fluid restriction
