Q

semiclosed define

A

Semi-closed systems have a full boundary with the surrounding atmosphere, and use a controlled source for fresh gas flow. Intake of ambient air is prevented, but excess fresh gas is vented into the surrounding atmosphere. Partial rebreathing of exhaled gas can occur. They are commonly subdivided using the Mapelson classification (see below).
Closed systems have a totally closed boundary across which no gas enters or is vented, meaning that complete rebreathing takes place. The commonest example is the circle system.

monitoring NDMR

A

acceleromyography
-peizoelectric crystal

DBS
-if nil twitch then wait
-fade–>neo give neo 0.02mg-0.05mg/kg
no fade–>occurs when TOFCR =0.6 (so may be no DBS fade despite inadequate reversal!) so wait or Neo 0.02mg/kg as per up2date table 2

I presume if nil titch cant reverse with neo
ie only useful for assessing shallow block

Q

fade

A

fade

  • NDRM block presynaptic rec
  • the normal presynaptic NACHR–>positive feedback to release more Ach
  • blocked presynaptic–>fade as less Ach available for subsequent contractions
  • contraversion as snake venum which is purely postsynaptic causes fade.

Q

Hz from power socket and why

A

Why 50Hz?
The lower the frequency, the more efficient the delivery of electricity - less energy is lost from the system
Apparently 50Hz is the lowest frequency where flickering of lightbulbs is not noticeable, so this was chosen as the standard
Why do I care about this for the exam?
AC 50Hz is the most dangerous type of electrical current, in terms of causing ventricular fibrillation!

Q

amsorb

A

CaCl instead of NaOH holds water so no base so less CO and compound A

FYI — Amsorb (we use)
Amsorb consists of calcium hydroxide lime (70%), water (14.5%), calcium chloride (0.7%), and two agents to improve hardness (calcium sulfate and polyvinylpyrrolidine). Amsorb has half the absorbing capacity of soda lime and costs more per unit. Calcium chloride serves as a moisture-retaining agent to allow for greater water availability. As a result, there is no need for alkali agents like NaOH or KOH. Without these strong monovalent bases, calcium hydroxide lime has fewer adverse reactions associated with the breakdown of inhalation agents (such as the formation of compound A or carbon monoxide [CO]).

Q

IOP

A

As the globe has typically poor compliance, a small increase in volume can cause a large increase in intraocular pressure. Factors affecting volume include:

Volume of aqueous humor
Aqueous humor is a clear fluid that fills the anterior and posterior chambers of the eye, and provides avascular tissues with nutrients and oxygen whilst still allowing light to pass freely between the lens and retina. Volume of aqueous humor is a function of:
Production
Aqueous humor is produced by secretion and filtration from capillaries in the ciliary body in the posterior chamber, and circulates through into the anterior chamber.
Production is accelerated by β22 agonism
Production is inhibited by α2 agonism
Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors decrease aqueous humor production probably by decreasing sodium secretion into the eye
Reabsorption
Aqueous humor is reabsorbed into venous blood in the canal of Schlemm.
The trabeculae meshwork is the main source of resistance to reabsorption
If this is blocked, a significant reduction in reabsorption can occur and IOP will increase.
Reabsorption is affected by:
Haemorrhage
Blocks trabecular meshwork.
Muscarinic antagonism
Dilates pupil, which brings the iris closer to canal and decreases absorption.
α1 agonism
Dilates the pupil, decreasing absorption.
PGF2α
Relaxes ciliary muscle, increasing absorption.
Volume of blood within the globe
Affected by:
MAP
Venous obstruction
External factors
Other factors affecting volume or compliance of the globe:
Extraocular muscle tension
Extraocular compression

Q

sens and spec

A

A burglar alarm is highly sensitive if it goes off every time someone breaks in.
It is highly specific it is rarely triggered by possums on the front porch (my thoughts)

The result is that sensitivity is a measure of the probability of getting a positive result out of all the positive cases, and that specificity is a measure of the probability of getting a negative result out of all the negative cases.

  • Sensitivity (also called the true positive rate, the epidemiological/clinical sensitivity, the recall, or probability of detection[1] in some fields) measures the proportion of actual positives that are correctly identified as such (e.g., the percentage of sick people who are correctly identified as having the condition). It is often mistakenly confused with the detection limit,[2][3] while the detection limit is calculated from the analytical sensitivity, not from the epidemiological sensitivity.
  • Specificity (also called the true negative rate) measures the proportion of actual negatives that are correctly identified as such (e.g., the percentage of healthy people who are correctly identified as not having the condition).

The positive and negative predictive values (PPV and NPV respectively) are the proportions of positive and negative results in statistics and diagnostic tests that are true positive and true negative results, respectively

Q

main stream vs side stream

A

Side stream:

fixed volume of gas continuously sampled from the circuit

aspirated through tubing, released to atmosphere or returned to circuit

rate adjusted between 50-500ml/min

errors:

sampling as close to patient as possible to minimize circuit dead space

sampling rate exceeds expiratory flow rate & inspired gas sampled

hypoventilation is sampling exceeds fresh gas flow

water vapour condensed in sample tubing/accumulates in measurement chamber – erroneous readings (filters and water traps in systems)

may have gas leakage, CO2 diffusing out

Main stream:

incorporate the infrared sensor into the circuit very close to the endotracheal tube.

Directly measure in circuit, no gas subtracted

Effects of breathing circuit and sample tubing dead space minimized, response time faster

Problems/errors:

Need to be warmed to prevent condensation

Avoid skin contact (warm, burns)

Heavy, risk circuit kinking of ETT

Requires frequent calibration

Prone to soiling with saliva, mucus

Q

mass spectrometry

A

postively charged not neg!

Clinical use of mass spectrometry for expired gas analysis began in respiratory care units in the mid-1970s. They were introduced into operating rooms and anesthesia practice shortly thereafter. Because of their size and complexity, hospitals often connected many operating rooms to a single spectrometer and had the results relayed back to the anesthesiologist. The convenience plus low cost of infrared analyzers has largely phased mass spectrometry out of clinical use.

Q

power alpha beta

A

Alpha value: value chosen (convention alpha = 0.05) for ‘acceptable’ level of Type 1 error. Thus accept 5% chance of incorrectly rejecting the null hypothesis (i.e. stating that there is a difference between the groups when there is not). This is important in medicine as stating that there is a difference between two drugs may cause harm to patients by incorrectly changing practice.

Beta value is a chosen value (convention 0.2) that relates to the chance of making a Type 2 error.
This means that we accept a 20% chance of incorrectly accepting the H0 and stating that there is no difference between the two groups, when actually there is a difference. This is less important as although may result in delay of discovery of important advances in medicine, it is less likely to harm the patient population as would be with Type 1 error.

Power = 1 – beta, usually 80%.

A
  1. What are the determinants of sample size?
    a) Chosen alpha value: smaller value requires larger sample size
    b) Chosen beta value: smaller B (higher power) means larger sample size
    c) Effect size ie Delta value: if looking for small difference between two groups, sample size increases
    d) Theta: underlying variance in population tested (cannot control) – large variance will increase sample size.

Q

HER

A

High HER
-metabolises free drug so quickly that PrB releases bound drug to maintain equilibrium hence PrB % irrelevant for high HER but ++ RELEVANT for low HER #P+H

(a-v)/a

The hepatic extraction ratio is determined largely by the free (unbound) fraction of the drug and by the intrinsic clearance rate

With increasing hepatic blood flow, hepatic extration ratio will decrease for all drugs

drugs with low intrinsic clearance:
Hepatic extraction ratio will drop more rapidly with increasing hepatic blood flow
Hepatic clearance will not increase significantly with increasing blood flow

The last point is important. Consider a drug which is completely absorbed and undergoes 95% clearance by first pass metabolism, making its systemic bioavailability 5%. With enzyme inhibition, a minor 5% drop in hepatic enzyme activity will result in a doubling of systemic bioavailability (to 10%), which could represent a toxic concentration for drugs with a narrow therapeutic index.

verapamil as a stereotypic drug with high individual variability due to high first pass
ALSO MORPHINE

The liver also forms a reservoir of blood with a volume of 450 mL (30 mL/100 g liver tissue), half of
which may be mobilized if hypovolaemia occurs.
The portal blood can bypass the sinusoids as blood
is shunted from portal venules to hepatic venules
by the relaxation of hepatic venule sphincters.
Catecholamines can mobilize blood from the sinusoids. The liver can also buffer against an increase
in blood volume. Hepatic compliance (i.e., distensibility) is higher at high venous pressures than at
low venous pressures.

In the presence of portosystemic shunts, some portal blood bypasses first pass clearance and therefore bioavailability of drugs with a high first pass clearance will be increased

psuedo hyponatraemia

A
  • normally plasma contains 93% water, 7% solids (5.5% proteins, 1% salts, 0.5% lipids)
  • hyperlipidaemia & other disorders increase solid phase up to 10%

CrCl vs GFR

A

Creatinine is filtered by the renal tubule and is not
reabsorbed. Creatinine clearance is used routinely
as a method of estimating GFR. However, a small
amount of creatinine is secreted by the tubules
into the lumen so that the creatinine clearance is
slightly greater than the true GFR.

if T stable then decreasing r–>increasing pressure inwards to collapse

(P, ventricular pressure; r, ventricular radius; h, wall thickness).

Decreased afterload due to a reduction in LV end-systolic transmural pressure and an increased pressure gradient between the intrathoracic aorta and the extrathoracic systemic circuit

Mechanisms affecting the right ventricle and the pulmonary circulation are:

Increased intrathoracic pressure is transmitted to cenral veins and the right atrium, decreasing right ventricular preload
Increased intrathoracic pressure is transmitted to pulmonary arteries
Transmitted alveolar pressure increases pulmonary vascular resistance
Increased pulmonary vascular resistance increases right ventriular afterload
Thus, increased afterload and decreased preload has the net effect of decreasing the right ventricular stroke volume.
Mechanisms affecting the left ventricle and the systemic circulation are:

Decreased preload by virtue of lower pulmonary venous pressure
Decreased afterload due to a reduction in LV end-systolic transmural pressure and an increased pressure gradient between the intrathoracic aorta and the extrathoracic systemic circuit
Thus, decreased LV stroke volume
The consequences of this are:

Decreased cardiac output
Decreased myocardial oxygen consumption

Platelet aphoresis vs pooled whole blood platelets

  • aphoresis–>sufficient dose from a single donor–>better
  • pooled–>from whole blood in insuffient dose from any single donor so pool together–>more risk of bacteria and virus

Both apheresis and pooled platelets are leucodepleted during or soon after collection and are also irradiated before release from Lifeblood, unless other specific arrangements have been made with the receiving laboratory/institution.

Platelets can be stored for 5 days after collection at 20 - 24º C with gentle agitation. Platelets can be irradiated at any stage during their 5 day storage and thereafter can be stored up to their normal shelf life of 5 days after collection.

The first advantage is that the whole-blood platelets, sometimes called “random” platelets, from a single donation are not numerous enough for a dose to give to an adult patient. They must be pooled from several donors to create a single transfusion, and this complicates processing and increases the risk of diseases that can be spread in transfused blood, such as human immunodeficiency virus.[citation needed]

Collecting the platelets from a single donor also simplifies human leukocyte antigen (HLA) matching, which improves the chance of a successful transfusion. Since it is time-consuming to find even a single compatible donor for HLA-matched transfusions, being able to collect a full dose from a single donor is much more practical than finding multiple compatible donors.

Plateletpheresis products are also easier to test for bacterial contamination

148
Q

leukodeplete and irradiation role

A

Irradiated blood components are used to prevent Transfusion-associated graft-versus host disease (TA-GVHD) the primary cause of which is proliferation and engraftment of transfused donor T-lymphocytes

The leucocytes present in donated blood play no therapeutic role in transfusion and may be a cause of adverse transfusion reactions. Removal of leucocytes may therefore have a number of potential benefits for transfusion recipients, including:

Reduced risk of platelet refractoriness
Reduced risk of febrile non-haemolytic transfusion reactions (FNHTR)
Reduced risk of CMV transmission
Reduction in storage lesion effect
Reduction in the incidence of bacterial contamination of blood components
Possible reduced risk of transfusion-associated graft vs host disease (TA-GVHD)
Possible reduction in transfusion related immunomodulatory (TRIM) effects, including cancer recurrence, mortality, non-transfusion transmitted infection
Possible reduced risk of transmitting variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (vCJD)

Q

adenosine hepatic arterial

A

It is suggested that this buffer response is due to intrahepatic levels of adenosine. With reduced portal blood flow, a build-up of adenosine occurs that vasodilates the hepatic artery.

TUBULOGLOMERULAR FEEDBACK In the juxtaglomerular apparatus, the macula densa lies in the wall of the ascending limb of the loop of Henle, close to the renal arterioles. The contraction of the smooth muscle of the afferent arteriole to the glomerulus is controlled by a vasoconstrictor, adenosine, from the macula densa (although the vasoconstrictor was previously thought to be renin). The macula densa releases more adenosine if the renal perfusion pressure rises and reduces production if the pressure falls. Adenosine production by the macula densa is determined by the composition of the fluid in the ascending loop of Henle. If the perfusion pressure increases, the glomerular capillary pressure and glomerular filtration also increase. The macula densa senses the increased flow of sodium and chloride in the ascending limb of the loop of Henle and releases more adenosine, which constricts the afferent arterioles, reducing the glomerular capillary pressure and the GFR. The vasodilator nitric oxide may be produced by the macula densa when the renal perfusion pressure falls.

As the graph show the light profiles in the chosen areas (red = 660 nm and infrared = 940 nm) overlap considerably for carboxyhemoglobin and oxyhemoglobin (as it does for methgb and deoxyhgb). This means that the pulse oximeter will see the reflected light for carboxyhgb and oxyhgb as the same when measuring in the red light spectrum and thereby measure a combined reflection. Carboxyhgb is not reflected/absorbed in the infrared spectrum and therefore does not add to this part in the ratio. Remember, the ratio between these measurements is checked against the pulse oximeters database. This ratio will correspond with the displayed SpO2.

Q

pulse ox two types

A

Pulse oximetry is a noninvasive method for accurately estimating oxygen saturation (SaO2) by reading the peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2). As SaO2 and SpO2 are sufficiently correlated and pulse oximetry has the advantages of being safe, convenient, inexpensive, and noninvasive, this approach is clinically accepted for monitoring oxygen saturation [1], [2].

Pulse oximetry is simple to carry out; it only uses two different light sources and a photodiode [3], [4], [5]. Depending on the measurement site, either the transmissive or the reflective mode can be used. In the transmissive mode, the light sources and photodiode are opposite to each other with the measurement site between them. Light then passes through the site. In the reflective mode, the light sources and photodiode are on the same side, and light is reflected to the photodiode across the measurement site.

Currently, the transmissive mode is the most commonly used method because of its high accuracy and stability. Nevertheless, the demand for reflective-mode oximetry is continuously increasing because it does not require a thin measurement site. It can be used at diverse measurement sites such as the feet, forehead, chest, and wrists. In particular, if the wrist is the available measurement site, pulse oximeters can be conveniently used in the form of a band or watch. To the best of our knowledge, reflectance pulse oximetry, specifically for monitoring oxygen saturation at the wrist, is currently not practiced clinically. In recent years, many reflectance pulse oximeters have become commercially available, but they are only for personal monitoring of oxygen saturation and for entertainment purposes. Obviously, the focus is on developing oximeters for medical purposes, and research is being carried out in this regard. Furthermore, most research papers discuss only the basic principle of pulse oximetry and its utilization in smart devices; only a few papers discuss the challenges associated with reflective pulse oximetry.

In this study, we developed a reflectance pulse oximeter and addressed the practical issues and limitations associated with its use. Using this oximeter, we investigated the results of AC amplitudes and DC offsets of the red and infrared signals, including modulation ratio, which are critical factors to estimate SpO2. We first tested our device by measuring oxygen saturation at a fingertip and wrist and analyzed its performance. Finally, we summarized all issues and discussed the feasibility of using the device for clinical purposes.

Halothan The major metabolite is trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), which is protein-bound and this TFA–protein complex can induce a T-cell-mediated immune response resulting in hepatitis ranging from mild transaminitis to fulminant hepatic necrosis and possibly death.

The production of inorganic fluoride by the metabolism of halogenated agents may cause direct nephrotoxicity. Studies investigating methoxyflurane demonstrated an association between high fluoride levels (serum fluoride >50 μmol litre−1) and polyuric renal failure. Serum fluoride levels peak earlier and decrease more rapidly with enflurane than with methoxyflurane, making enflurane less nephrotoxic. Isoflurane is more resistant to defluorination and can be used for prolonged periods without significant increases in serum fluoride levels. Sevoflurane undergoes significant defluorination

sevo–>3-5% CYP2E1 metabolism to hexafluoroisopropanol and inorganic F- (which may be nephrotoxic)

Hepatic CYP450 (CYP2E1) metabolises C-halogen bonds to release halogen ions (F-, Cl-, Br-), which can be nephrotoxic and hepatotoxic. The C-F bond is minimally metabolised compared to the C-Cl, C-Br, and C-I bonds. All agents undergo hepatic oxidation, except for halothane which is reduced.

A

“A pharmacokinetic compartment is a mathematical concept which describes a space in the body which a drug appears to occupy. It does not need to correspond to any specific anatomical space or physiological volume”.

285
Q

bi exponential washout phases

A

The distribution phase is the initial rapid decline in serum drug concentration
The elimination phase is the slow decline in drug concentration, sustained by redistribution of drug from tissue stores.

286
Q

triexponential

A

https://derangedphysiology.com/main/cicm-primary-exam/required-reading/pharmacokinetics/Chapter%202.0.1/single-and-multiple-compartment-models-drug-distribution

The distribution phase finishes with the concentrations reaching their peaks in the peripheral compartments.

To call the next phase the “elimination phase” is probably incorrect, but it is a period during which the main effect on drug concentration is in fact elimination. This phase ends when the slow compartment concentration becomes higher than the tissue concentration and the total clearance is slowed down by the gradual redistribution of the drug into the blood compartment.

The last phase is called the “terminal” phase, also sometimes confusingly referred to as the elimination phase. In actual fact during this phase elimination is rather slow because the concentration of the drug in the central compartment is minimal. The major defining factor affecting drug concentration during this phase is the redistribution of stored drug out of the slow compartment.

A

1) That the central compartment is the only compartment from which the drug is eliminated.

The cardiovascular changes above can be modified
Elevation of RAP ! persistence of foramen ovale
Decrease PVR ! persistence of ductus arteriosus
Prostaglandins and hypoxia ! inhibit closure of ductus arteriosus

(1) Umbilical vessels are obliterated when the cord is clamped externally ! ↓blood
flow through IVC and ductus venosus
(2) Ductus venosus closes over 3 ~ 10 days
(4) First breath ! negative intrathoracic pressure ! oxygen enters lungs ! opening
of pulmonary vessels + ↓hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction ! dramatic fall in
pulmonary vascular resistance
(5) ↓↓pulmonary vascular resistance ! ↑pulmonary blood flow ! ↑venous return to
left atrium ! ↑left atrial pressure ! LAP exceeds RAP ! functional closure of
foramen ovale within minutes to hours of birth ! all RA blood passes into RV
(6) Anatomical closure of foramen ovale occurs over several days
(7) Ductus arteriosus constricts (high PaO2) and complete closure within 48 hours
(8) Other changes take several weeks after birth – ↓RV wall thickness, ↑LV wall
thickness, etc
