SASx - Anesthesiology Review Flashcards
What arteries are used for direct BP investigation in the horse? (Where would you place your catheter)
facial artery, lateral metatarsal
What is the normal TPR for a dog?
T = 100.4-102.2, P = 60-120, R = 10-30
What is the most common site to pull a sample for arterial blood-gas analysis in a sheep?
median artery
What flow rate is used during induction with a rebreathing system?
high flow (50-100 mL/kg/min)
-
Flow rates - rebreathing system
- Induction: high flow (50-100 mL/kg/min)
- Maintenance: semi-closed (20-50 mL/kg/min) or low flow (10-20 mL/kg/min)
- Recovery: high flow (50-100 mL/kg/min)
What does the P wave of an ECG represent?
atrial depolarization
What is the normal pH range for arterial blood?
7.35 - 7.45
Adequate perfusion of kidneys & viscera requires a SAP of:
greater than or equal to 80 mmHg
Define hypoxemia in terms of SpO2 and PaO2:
SpO2 < 90% and/or PaO2 < 60 mmHg
How do you calculate minutes of oxygen you have remaining in your E cylinder?
Where do you place a doppler on a donkey?
coccygeal artery
What breathing circuit is shown here?
Mapleson D
- Mapleson D is a non-rebreathing system (NRS).*
- You should always use non-rebreathing systems for patients < 3 kg. Non-rebreathing systems are recommended for patients <10 kg, obese animals, and animals that have trouble breathing*
What breathing circuit is shown here?
Mapleson F
- Mapleson F is a non-rebreathing system (NRS) that does not have a pressure gauge to ensure you’re delivering an adequate breath.*
- You should always use non-rebreathing systems for patients < 3 kg. Non-rebreathing systems are recommended for patients <10 kg, obese animals, and animals that have trouble breathing*
If your patient’s body temperature is below ____˚F, they are considered hypothermic
< 96˚F = hypothermia
Below 94°F anesthetic requirements are reduced, recovery may be prolonged, CV function depressed
What is the normal TPR for a cat?
T = 101.3-102.2, P = 120-180, R = 20-40
What is your ECG diagnosis in this 7 month old Labrador Retreiver?
Ventricular tachycardia
Shown below is a normal capnograph waveform. What is indicated by the red arrow?
inspiration
Name 3 monitoring tools that can be used to assess oxygenation:
- Pulse Oximetry
- Arterial Blood Gas – PaO2
- MM color
What does the QRS complex of an ECG represent?
ventricular depolarization and atrial repolarization
When using doppler for blood pressure measurement, the width of the cuff should be ~_____% circumference of limb
30-40%
- When using doppler for blood pressure measurement, the width of the cuff should be ~30-40% circumference of limb*
- *Same for all indirect methods**
Identify the arrhythmia.
Atrial Flutter
Note the sawtooth pattern on the ECG. This pattern is due to rapid rotary depolarization of the atria
Name 3 monitoring tools for obtaining a patient’s HR:
- Esophageal stethoscope
- Regular Stethoscope (auscultation)
- ECG
Where do you place the leads for ECG on a dog?
- White: level of the right elbow
- Black: level of the left elbow
- Red: left stifle or abdomen
Minimum FiO2 =
35%
Shown below is a normal capnograph waveform. What is indicated by the red arrow?
expiratory upstroke
What is the gold standard for measuring oxygen and ventilation in arterial blood?
blood gas analyzer
Doppler is used for reliable detection of ________ blood pressure
systolic
Doppler is unreliable for diastolic pressure!
What is the tank cylinder pressure in E and H oxygen tanks?
2200 psi
Where do you place the leads for ECG on a horse?
Large animals (lead I):
- White lead: Right jugular furrow
- Black lead: Ventral midline under apex of heart
- Red lead: Any site remote from the heart
What is the main difference between the Mapleson D and the Mapleson F?
- *The Mapleson D has a pressure gauge.**
- The Mapleson F does not.*
