Q

If only one lung is intubated, what is the effect on the rise in FA and rise in Pa?

A

FA rises faster than if the ETT was in the trachea

However, loss of uptake from unventilated lung leads to overall depressed ↑ in Pa

Q

Effect of solubility on emergence

A

Less soluble = faster induction/emergence

More soluble = slower induction/emergence

19
Q

Five partial pressure gradients between vaporizer and end-target tissue:

A

Vaporizer and inflow, Inflow and circuit, Circuit and alveoli, Alveoli and blood, Blood and tissues

20
Q

Impact of HCT on B/G coefficient:

A

↓ HCT = ↓ B/G coefficient
Dropping HCT from 21 –> 43 drops B/G coefficient by 20%
D/t less binding sites in the blood

21
Q

FA vs. FI:

A 
FA = alveolar concentration 
FI = inspired concentration
22
Q

FD = FI when:

A

High flow rate with no re-breathing

23
Q

Make these changes to ventilation to ↑ uptake:

A

↓ TV, ↑ rate

24
Q

PA of volatile anesthetic is determined by (4):

A
  1. PI (inhaled partial pressure)
  2. Alveolar ventilation
  3. Breathing circuit
  4. FRC
25
Q

Normal alveolar ventilation, minute ventilation and deadspace:

A

Alveolar Ventilation = 4 L/min
Minute ventilation = 6 L/min
Dead space = 2L/min

26
Q

Solubility’s effect on the rate at which FA approaches FI:

A

Less soluble agents will reach equilibrium faster

They have a faster rate of rise

27
Q

Describe the FA/FI curve:

A 
First rise: VRG uptake 
First knee: VRG at equilibrium 
Second rise: MG uptake 
Second knee: MG at equilibrium 
Third rise: FG/VPG uptake (very slow)
28
Q

With lower solubility (

A
  1. Gas phase

2. Blood phase

29
Q

What determines which direction the gas will move

A

pressure gradients

30
Q

How long does it take the fat compartment to reach equilibrium?

A

24-48 hours

31
Q

Rate of induction/emergence of an anemic patient

A

Faster induction and emergence

32
Q

What determines how quickly FA= FI ?

A

Solubility - less soluble = faster equilibrium

33
Q

Partial Pressure that represents anesthetic going to the brain

A

FA (fraction of alveolar concentration)

34
Q

What do we as anesthetists control

A

FI (fraction of inspired concentration) - the % dials

35
Q

What is out overall goal with induction

A

Get the FA/FI ratio to 1:1 quickly - the faster to equilibrium - the faster the induction

36
Q

PA (alveolar pressure ) is used to estimate 3 things

A
  1. Depth of anesthesia
  2. Recovery from anesthesia
  3. Anesthetic Potency (dose) or MAC (ED50)
37
Q

Exhaled gas readings during induction and emergence. During induction readings will be ____________ than what is set on the dial d/t ________________. During emergence the readings will be higher than what is set on the dial d/t ___________.

A

Induction - lower; Uptake occurring in the tissues

Emergence - higher; tissue giving up previously absorbed IA

38
Q

What has a faster induction, iso or des?

A

des- it is less soluble and has a faster rate of rise and therefore reaches equilibrium much faster.

39
Q

Why does nitrous have a faster rate of rise than desflurane?

A

Despite des being less soluble nitrous will rise faster because of the concentration effect.

40
Q

What opposes the effect of ventilation?

A

Uptake

41
Q

A increase in CO will cause a ____________ in the FA/FI ratio. this means that the patient will be induced ___________.

A

Decrease

Slower

42
Q

A decrease in CO will cause a ____________ in the FA/FI ratio. this means that the patient will be induced ___________.

A

Increase

Faster

43
Q

Changes in CO will have a greater effect on the ____________ soluble agents. Why?

A

More soluble. They have more time to equilibrate with the passing blood.

44
Q

Changes in ventilation will have greater effects on ______________ agents. Why?

A

More Soluble. Alveolar pressure will build up much faster in both, but the rate of rise will increase more for the highly soluble agents.
