Q

hemodynamic goals for CV pts

A

maintain O2 delivery

  • preoxygenate
  • keep MAP >60

Prevent exacerbation of cardiac disease

  • careful using fluids
  • minimize stress

rapid intervention to maintain hemodynamic stability

  • maintain normal HR
  • prevent/treat arrhythmias
  • prevent/treat hypotension

Q

hemodynamic goals for MV disease pts

A

maintain HR- avoid ↓HR
maintain contractility
Maintain BP- avoid increased afterload

if you ↓BP, then more blood into heart then more blood regurg in atria → LA enlargment and Left side CHF

Q

which premed is contraindicated for MVD

dexmed
methadone
fentanyl
midazolam

A

dexmedetomidine
⍺2 agonist
cause ↑afterload and reflex ↓HR →↓CO

do not give to pts with decreased systolic function
* may be good for cats with HOCM
* reversible with atopamezole

Q

protocol for MVD

A

premed/co induce with opioid and benzo

  • minimize propofol or alfaxalone dose
  • minimize inhalant
  • ↑ use of atropine to prevent ↓HR
  • careful using fluids
  • support BP with dopamine/dobutamine

Q

EKG changes with ↑potassium

A

tall tented T waves
shortened QT interval
prolonged PR interval and widened QRS
short and widened P wave
absence of P wave and ↓HR with sinoventricular rhythm
sine wave, Vfib, ventricular asystole

Q

how to stabilize urinary obstruction

A

calcium decrease threshold for action potential

increase K into cells
* glucose and insulin
* sodium bicarbonate
* β2 agonist- albuterol, terbutaline

promote excretion/ removal of potassium
* diuresis
* dialysis

Q

how to maintain anesthesia for collapsing trachea if premeded with ace and butorphanol, induced with propofol and midazolam

A

TIVA- propofol CRI or alfazalone CRI

can add butorphanol CRI to reduce amount of propofol or alfazalone needed
