low albumin and anaesthetic

A
  • means more free drug so the dose will have a greater effect

Q

kidney failure and anaesthetic

A
  • will show as increased creatinine or urea
  • causing acidaemia
  • increased free drug conc
  • also depresses myocardial contractility
  • and shifts HbO2 curve to right so lower affinity to oxygen

119
Q

120
Q

4 blood sample taking sites rabbit

A
  • cephalic vein
  • marginal ear vein
  • lateral sephanous vein
  • jugular
121
Q

before inducing rabbit anaesthesia

A
  • apply EMLA cream 1 hour before venepuncture

- place an i/v catheter

122
