Test #4 Inj & Inhalants Flashcards
T/F Barbiturate drugs are not controlled substances
False!
T/F There are three classifications of barbiturates that are based on their duration of action
True
T/F Pentobarbital is used as an euthanasia agent
True
T/F Cyclohexamines may cause apnuestic breathing patterns
True
T/F Tiletamine has a longer duration than Ketamine
True
T/F Guaifenesin May relax the diaphragm as well as all other muscles
False
T/F In order for inhalant anesthetics to be distributed into the body there must be a high concentration gradient from the body to the alveoli
False
T/F The vapor pressure means the tendency of a gas to remain as a gas or to dissolve into tissue
False
T/F Halothane requires a non-precision vaporizer
False
T/F Sevoflurane has a high solubility coefficient and therefore induction and recovery are fast
False
Injectable anesthetics may be used to:
Induced anesthesia
maintain anesthesia
re-establish anesthetic depth
(All of the above)
System effects of barbiturates include:
Excitation during induction/recovery
respiratory depression anticonvulsant
(All of the above)
Disadvantages or contraindications of Thiopentol include:
Use caution greyhounds
Ketamine:
Is a controlled drug
Propofol:
Must be administered IV, slowly, and to effect
Triple Drip:
Is a combination of ketamine, GG, and xylazine
Is used to induce anesthesia in horses
Is used to maintain anesthesia for procedures lasting about 1 hour
(All of the above)
Minimum alveolar concentration:
Is the lowest concentration that produces no response to pain and 50% of patients exposed to pain. Varies with different species. sevoflurane is higher than isoflurane.
(All of the above)
The inhalant anesthetic that requires 20 to 50% to be metabolized by the liver is:
Halothane
Isoflurane:
Requires a precision vaporizer
Advantages of injectable anesthetics over inhalant anesthetics include all of the following except:
Depth easily altered
_____ Is the drug of choice for maintenance of epilepsy
Phenobarbital
_____ Is a drug commonly used in combination with Ketamine
Valium
_____ Is the drug that causes catalepsy
Ketamine
If a drug is accidentally administered perivascular you should first ______, then ______, then ______, and ______.
- Stop the injection, keep negative pressure when pulling out
- Flush area with isotonic saline 2x drug amount
- Notify the veterinarian
- Watch for irritation and sloughing
During induction the alveolar concentration of inhalant anesthetics is ______ and the blood concentration is ______.
- High
- Low
Maintenance of anesthesia with inhalant anesthetics is controlled by the amount of anesthetic delivered and by ______.
Ventilation
______% Of isoflurane is metabolized thru respiration.
99%
The best reason for leaving a patient on 100% oxygen following the end of surgery is ______.
To allow the oxygen to dilute the anesthetic gas in the body
Low vapor pressure gases require a ______ vaporizer.
Non precision
