26
Q

Issues with Scopolamine Patch

1.5mg

A

Visual disturbances
dry mouth
sedation/dizzy
Avoid in dementia/Alzheimer’s

27
Q

Atropine for PONV?

0.2mg

A

Only if Neostigmine is given

28
Q

Zofran for PONV

4mg

A

More effective than dopamine antagonists
no extrapyramidal issues
does prolong QT

29
Q

What is Aprepitant?

A

Neurokinin-1 Antagonist
Better than Zofran but more expensive
Takes a long time to work
Can cause constipation, headache, fever, and itching

30
Q

Decadron?

Works on the Nucleus Tractus Solitarius (grey matter near CTZ)

31
Q

Minimize SSI?

A

Pre-incision Antibiotics

32
Q

Ancef dosing

A

Under 60kg = 1 g

Over 120 kg = 3 gm

33
Q

Adam loves testing on Hypothermia shit. Giant list of it’s effects

LIPIDIC-APP

A

Increased Renal dysfunction
Platelet dysfunction
Increased infection risk
Decreased drug metabolism
Increased cortisol levels
Coagulopathy
-
Arrhythmias

Poor wound healing

34
Q

What causes hypothermia in the OR?

A

35
Q

Two ways to measure CORE temp

A
  1. Bladder
  2. Esophgeal
36
Q

ARDS Management: 10 steps

A
  1. 4-6 mL/kg tidal volume
  2. Pleateau pressure < 27 cmH2O
  3. Driving pressure < 15 cmH2O
  4. RR < 30 per min
  5. PEEP ≤ 15 cmH2O
  6. Mechanical Power < 17 J/min
  7. Prone position 12-18 hours if PaO2/FiO2 < 150
  8. NMB if severe
  9. Recruitment maneuvers can help
  10. Consider ECMO if pt does not improve
