Q

Preoxygenation replaces ____ with _____ being the second biggest resivoir of O2 besides the plasma

A

Replaces Nitrogen
FRC (Functional Residual Capacity)-denitrogenation

17
Q

Target end-tidal ETO2

A

90%

18
Q

Risk of delivering high O2 fraction

A

Hyperoxia

Hypotension (cause reduced SV & CO through increased SVR)

Cardiac & Cerebral ischemia (increased coronary constriction & decreased CBF)

19
Q

The airway is controlled by what autonomic system?

A

Parasympathetic (VAGUS nerve primary)

20
Q

Catecholamines binding to BETA-2 receptors in the airway smooth muscle will cause

A

BronchoDILATION

21
Q

Sympathetic NS and NANC control in airway

A

SNS-no DIRECT control

NANC-direct influence on smooth muscle (relaxation) and role in inflammatory response

22
Q

PSNS releases ______ which activates ______receptors, causing. vaso________

A

ACH; M3; constriction

23
Q

Activation of G____protein and ____________ & and an increase in _______ causes__________

A

Q; Phospholipase C; IP3; vasoconstriction

24
Q

What are some bronchoconstricting mediators released by the PSNS?

A

Bradykinin
Prostaglandins
Leukotrienes
Sub P
NK-A

25
Q

BETA-2 receptors on postganglionic cholinergic nerve causes

A

HYPER polarization & reduced ACh release

26
Q

BETA-2 recepotrs on airway smooth muscle calls cause

A

stimulation of adenyl cyclase which INCREASES cAMP, HYPERpolarizatioon, and ultimately smooth muscle relaxation

27
Q

HYPERpolarization is due to

A

loss of potassium

28

A

Inflammation
Irritability
Remodeling
Constriction

surface area, elastic recoil, & loss of structural integrity

34
Q

What can cause bronchoconstriction in the intra-op area

A

Abx, airway manipulation, surgical stimulation, NMB, histamine release(morphine)

35
Q

What are some assessment observations that will lead to a diagnosis of bronchospasm?

A

Increased Peak Airway Pressures, Reduced TV, difficulty bagging, sharkfin capnography, changes in SaO2 and PaCO2, wheezing

36

Wheezing is

A

A POOR indicator of degree of airway obstruction
