21
Q

alpha 2 agonist

A

clonidine
- sedative and analgesic

22
Q

inhibits lipolysis and gluconeogenesis

23

24
Q

drug of choice for management of hypotension given 5-10mg bolus IV

A

ephedrine

  • may cause tachycardia
25
preferred vasopressor for obs spinal
phenylephrine
26
result of administering phenylephrine
- very potent a-1 agonist --> reflex Bradycardia - dilute 10mg into 200ml saline for 50mug/ML
27
how are inotropes given
central line Adrenaline, noradrenaline  For critically ill patients who need inotropic support (e.g. sepsis, cardiac failure)  Adrenaline boluses are only given as part of resuscitation or as management of anaphylaxis
