Test #1 Terms, Machine, Form Flashcards
The maintenance period is achieved by use of 1)___________ or 2)_____________ anesthetics. We want to see a 3)__________ increase of 4)_________ rate and 5)__________ rate. We must guard against 6)____________ anesthesia.
1.injectable 2.inhalant 3.slight 4.heart 5.respiration 6.chasing
T/F Epinephrine maybe added to a local anesthetic agent to prolong the effects of the drug
True
If a precision vaporizer is VOC, then a non-precision vaporizer is ______
VIC (Vaporizer-in-circuit)
During the anesthetic procedure, the reservoir bag should always be about _____ full of air
3/4
What is the negative pressure relief valve for?
It is a safety device only. It allows room air to enter the circuit.
Steps to pressure check
- Close pop-off 2. Plug end of Y tubing with thumb 3. Flush valve/ Flow meter up to 20cm H2O 4. Watch pressure manometer (must not drop >5cm H2O in 30 seconds) 5. DO NOT release thumb-> open pop-off to release the pressure in the circuit 6. Turn OFF flow meter
T/F An epidural is a common example of regional anesthesia
True
T/F Intravascular routes of anesthesia have a longer duration than intramuscular
False Shorter
T/F The pressure regulator will reduce the pressure of oxygen entering the anesthetic machine to 50 psi
True
T/F The flowmeter should never be set at less than 2L/minute when running anesthesia on a patient that weighs less than 7 kg
False
T/F It is not important to turn the oxygen cylinder off when the anesthesia machine is not in use
False It is important
T/F 600 minutes will be left on E tank of oxygen containing 300 L at a flow rate of 500 ML/minute
True
T/F Neuroleptanalgesia is produced by a combination of a narcotic opioid and a tranquilizer or sedative
True
T/F Rebreathing systems are used on patients that way less than 7 kg
False Patients greater than 7 kg
T/F Heart rate, respiratory rate, and blood pressure are recorded every 15 minutes on the bel-rea anesthesia form
False Every 5 min
The tidal volume of an animal is:
10-15mls/kg
If the pop-up valve is indirectly left shut, it will:
Cause a significant rise of pressure within the circuit
When the oxygen tank is half-full, the pressure gauge will read approximately:
1000 psi
Flowmeters that have a ball for reading the gauge should be read from the:
Middle of the ball
The flutter valves on an anesthetic machine help:
Control the direction of movement of gases
That anesthetist will know when the granules in the carbon dioxide absorber canister have been exhausted because the:
Granules will be hard
Non Percision vaporizers are used for anesthetic gases:
With low vapor pressure
To conduct a pressure check on an anesthetic machine you must
Close the pop off valve, close end of Y tubing, introduce pressure up to 20 cm H2O, watch for a drop of less than 5 cm H2O within 30 seconds, open the pop off valve before releasing the end of the tubing
When using the reservoir bag to ventilate or “bag” the large animal patient we should not exceed:
30 cmH2O pressure
The color coding for nitrous oxide is:
Blue
The color coding for oxygen is:
Green
_____ Anesthesia is the absence of sensation in consciousness
General anesthesia
And E tank of oxygen that contains 500 psi of oxygen has _____ liters of oxygen
150L
_____ Is the calculation used to determine the oxygen flow rate for patients that weigh more than 7 kg
30mls O2 x kg = ____ mls O2/min
For a dog that weighs 40 pounds you should select a _____ reservoir bag
2L
An _____ Scavenge uses a vacuum or fan to suction waste gases outside the building
Active
The _____ Measures the pressure of fresh gases in the anesthetic system
O2 Manometer
The three steps required for hooking up Sam if you don’t rebreathing systems to anesthetic machines include attachment to the vaporizer and _____ and _____
Attachment to scavenge system and open Popoff valve
_____ Is an advantage for using local anesthetic
Decreased patient toxicity
The _____ Delivers 100% O2 to the reservoir by bypassing the vaporizer and the flowmeter
02 flush valve
It is recommended to change out the oxygen tank when _____ PSI are remaining
Less then 500 psi
