Q

propofol metabolism

A

conjugated in liver by CP 450
liver function does not affect rate of metabolism
metabolites mostly inactive
4-hydroxypropofol is 1/3 as potent
CKD doesn’t affect clearance
highly metabolised, less than 3% excreted unchanged

17
Q

etomidate derivative name, parent compound, solvent name, pH

A

carboxylated imidazole derivative
imidazole refers to the parent compound C3H4N2
propylene glycol solvent
pH 6.9 - water soluble in solution
at physiological pH, becomes highly lipid soluble

18
Q

etomidate mechanism of action

A

selective GABAa
binds to specific receptor
increases affinity of GABA to GABAa

19
Q

etomidate onset of action, solubility, Vd, compartment model, T1/2, protein bound %

A
rapid onset of action
highly lipid soluble
weak base pH 8.2
Vd 2.5-4.5 L/Kg
3 compartment model
T1/2 3-5 hrs
high hepatic extraction ratio - changes in hepatic blood flow will prolong effect
75% protein bound
20
Q

etomidate CNS effects

A
rapid loss of consciousness
no analgesia
direct cerebral vasoconstriction, decrease CBF, ICP, CMRO2
reduced IOP
increases EEG activity in epileptogenic foci
rare association with Grand Mal siezures
myoclonic movement
anticonvulsant
21
Q

etomidate respiratory effects

A

minimal ventilatory response to CO2 drop
decrease in TV, increase in RR
hiccups, coughing

22
Q

etomidate CV effects

A

minimal effects on CV, b/c no effect on SNS and baroreceptors

23
Q

etomidate endocrine effects

A

dose dependent reversible inhibition of 2 enzymes in biosynthesis of cortisol/aldosterone

24
Q

etomidate 2 enzymes

A

11 betahydroxylase
17 alphahydroxylase
prevents conversion of cholesterol to cortisol
results in adrenocortical suppression for 4-8 hrs
reduces mineralcorticoid and corticosteroid production

25
Q

etomidate and same day surgery

A

not ideal, too much N/V

26
Q

etomidate dosage

A

induction 0.2-0.6 mg/kg (0.3 mg/kg)
maintenance infusion 10 mcg/kg/min w/ N2O and opioids
sedation 5-8 mcg/kg/min for short procedure
rectal 6.5 mg/kg has been used in peds

27
Q

etomidate and N/V

A

high incidence of N/V 30-40%
myoclonic movement 30-60%
enhance NMDR activity

28
Q

etomidate metabolism

A

liver, ester hydrolysis or N dealkylation to carboxylic acid
biotransformation 5x faster than thiopental
85% renal, 13% biliary excretion
2% excreted unchanged
