78
Q

Explain why the body causes the Copensitory mech

Decreased afterload

A
  • Decreased viscosity
  • Hypoxemia causes Vasodilation and thus decreased SVR leading to increased SV and therfore increased CO

Explain why the body causes the Copensitory mech

increased Preload

A
  • Decreased RBCs and decreased Blood volume lead to…..

right

to release O2 from Hgb to tissue

83

Compensitory Mechanisms:

why does the ODC shift to the right?

A
  • Rlease of O2 to tissues

90
Q

Anemia Intraoperative:

what happens to VAAs w/ anemia

A

uptake faster

91
Q

Anemia Intraoperative:

whats up with N2O and anemia?

92
Q

Anemia Intraoperative:

What occurs w/ cardiac depressent drugs w/ anemia

A

Further decrease O2 to tissues

93
Q

Anemia Intraoperative:

how to you prevent a left shift on the ODC

A

avoid

and

Hypothermia

94
Q

Anemia Postoperative:

what are 2 main things to do postop w/ anemic pts

A

Maintain Oxygenation

95
Q

Anemia when to transfuse?

what was the old rule? Before 1980s

A

10/30 rule

96
Q

Anemia when to transfuse?

but in 1988 the NIH stated the criteria was what?

A

“no evidence to support a single criterion”

97

A

10g/dL

98
Q

Anemia when to transfuse?

you should assess what 3 factors before deciding to transfuse?

A
  1. Risk assiociated w/anemia during periop time
  2. Risk of transfusion itself
  3. What does the research state?
99
Q

Summary:

Anemia is what?

A

decreased in the number or function of RBC

100
Q

Summary:

what to assess?

A

The individual

co-existing diseases

Degree of expected blood loss

101
Q

Summary:

transfusion should be based on what?
