propofol is mixed with:
1.2% egg
10% soybean
2.25% glycerol base
propofol draw up safety
supports bacterial growth, never use same bottle
propofol extended infusion efect
increased glycerides
propofol allergies
egg yolk allergies, anaphylactic
2 ways propofol is supplied
Diprivan EDTA - ok
Propofol Sodium Metabisulfite - bronchospasms
propofol mechanism of action
GABAa, Glycine
decreases rate of dissociation of GABA from GABAa
no spinal cord depression
propofol Vd, clearance, model of distribution, T1/2
3.5-4.5 L/Kg
clearance exceeds hepatic blood flow
2-3 compartment model
T1/2 - 0.5-1.5 hrs
propofol: what affects pharmacokinetics
weight, co-existing disease, age, co-administration with other drugs
propofol CNS effects specifics
chloride channel activation of B subunit of GABA receptor, NMDA inhibition
propofol CNS effects
rapid onset, one arm-brain circulation decreases CMRO2, CBF, ICP, CPP, cerebral protective EEG burst suppression age effects ED95 - highest in toddlers, decreases with age hiccups, muscle twitching hallucinations, opisthotonos decreased IOP antioxidant effects myoclonus
propofol respiratory effects
apnea following induction decreases TV, RR decreased response to CO2 and hypoxia PaCO2 rises, pH decreases bronchodilation in COPD
propofol CV effects
25-40% decrease in BP greater than with STP dose dependent myocardial depression and vasodilation similar decrease in SV, CO, SVR HR UNCHANGED
propofol other effects
does not potentiate muscle relaxants pain on injection antiemetic/antipruritic at 10 mg doeses amnestic at >30 mcg/kg/min crosses placenta, removed from fetal circulation
propofol doses
induction 1-2.5 mg/kg up to 3 mg/kg in toddlers
GA maintenance infusion 100-300 mcg/kg/min
sedation infusion 25-100 mcg/kg/min
