Q

propofol MOA

A

Acts at GABAa (major)
glycine (minor)

reduces rate of dissociation of GABA from GABAa

NO SPINAL CORD DEPRESSION (despite glycine)

19
Q

Etomidate is ____ Lipid soluble

A

HIGHLY LIPID SOLUBLE.

pKa = 6.9

at physiological pH becomes highly lipid soluble hence fast onset.

20
Q

MOA etomidate:

A

binds to a specific site on the receptor

increases the affinity of GABA to GABAa

21
Q

onset of etomidate:

A

rapid, one arm to brain

22
Q

etomidate redistribution:

A

terminates hypnotic effect

23
Q

elimination half time of etomidate is

A

3-5 hours

24
Q

metabolism of etomidate is

A

PERFUSION dependent

25
Q

etomidate is a weak

A

base

but is water soluble in bottle. which is why we cant give it with a barb cause precipitates

26
Q

etomidate dose:

A

induction: 0.2 to 0.6 mg/kg (0.3 mg/kg)
maintenance: 10 mcg/kg/min c opined and n2o
sedation: 5-8 mcg/kg/min
rectal: 6.5 mg/kg

27
Q

CNS effects of etomidate

A

decrease IOP, ICP, CMRO2, CBF.

Can INCREASE EEG at epileptic foci. Good in ECT, may cause seizure.

MYOCLONUS

28
Q

CV effects of etomidate

A

MINIMAL! distinguishing feature

29
Q

Resp effects of etomidate

A

minimal decrease in response to Co2.

minimal decrease in TV.

INCREASE IN RR.

hiccups/coughing.

30
Q

metabolism of etomidate

A

perfusion decedent liver. CYP 450

also some ester hydrolysis

31
Q

notable features of etomidate outside of CV/CNS/RESP

A

depression of synthesis of cortisol and aldosterone.
4-8 hours corticosuppresion

C/I in PROPHYERIA

PONV 30-40% highest incidence

32
Q

ketamine MOA

A
  1. glutamate antagonist at NMDA
  2. Muscarinic agonsit?
  3. weak actions at GABA
  4. agonist at opiod (Mu, sigma, kappa, delta)
  5. inhibition at Ca++ channel, vgNa like LA.
33
Q

ketamine CNS:

A
dissociative. 
nystagmus
pupil dilation
salvation
myoclonus 

INCREASED CMRO2, CBF, IOP, ICP

34
Q

ketamine RESP:

A

minimal effects, bronchodilator!

increased secretions

35
Q

ketamine: CV

A

inhibits reuptake of NE so increased BP, SVR, HR, CO but directly is a cardiac depressant.

36
Q

ketamine metabolism:

A

CYP 450
perfusion depedent
INDUCES ENZYME METABOLISM, so tolerance develops

37
Q

ketamine metabolites:

A

NORKETAMINE

1/3 to 1/5 as potent

38
Q

ketamine doses:

A

spinal: 0.2 to 0.5 mg/k
sedation/analgesia: 0.2 to 0.5 mg/kg
induction: 1-2 mg/kg IV
4-8 mg/kg IM

PO/intranasal: 60 mg/kg

39
Q

precedex MOA:

A

potent alpha 2 agonist

40
Q

large density of alpha 2 at

A

pontine locus cerealus -> does sleep

41
Q

precedex CNS:

A

uncoupling!!! decrease CBF with no effect on ICP or CMRO2

42
Q

precedex thermoregulation:

A

depresses thermoregulation and also inhibits shivering.

43
Q

precedex CV

A

bolus = initial hypertension
then! decrease HR, SVR, BP, Bradycardia, risk for heart block asystole.

ATTENUATES CV responses -> sympatholytic, decrease catecholamines

44
Q

precedex resp:

A

minimal changes in RR, mod decrease in TV.
No change in Co2 response.
UPPER AIRWAY OBSTRUCTION POSSIBLE.

45
Q

metabolism of precedex

A

RAPID metabolism, but also inhibits CYP450.

MAY INTERFERE WITH METABOLISM OF OTHER DRUGS

46
Q
