Q

Does ephedrine cause greater arterial or venous vasoconstriction?

A

Venoconstriction > arteriolar constriction

  • > Redistribution of blood centrally
  • > improved venous return (preload)

16
Q

___ is used to treat anaphylaxis and v-fib.

A

Epi

17
Q

How does the duration of action of ephedrine compare to that of epi?

A

ephedrine last 10x longer than epi

18
Q

___ is used in TX of diabetes insipidus.

A

Vasopressin

diabetes insipidus = lack of ADH secretion

19
Q

Risks associated with the use of Epi include ___, ___ and ____.

A

Risks:

  • cerebral hemorrhage
  • coronary ischemia
  • ventricular dysrhythmia
20
Q

Withdrawal of ____ could lead to hypertensive crisis.

A

clonidine

21
Q

T or F. Ephedrine may have anti-emetic properties.

A

TRUE

22
Q

___ can be used to support BP in septic shock, cardiac arrest, post-CPB vasoplegia, and interaction between ACE-I and general anesthesia.

A

Vasopressin

23
Q

In addition to its sedative effects, side effects of clonidine include ___, ___, and ___.

A

bradycardia, hypotension, dry mouth

24
Q

___ is effective for treating post-op shivering.

A

Clonidine

25
Q

Identify the adrenergic agonist:

  • May increase cardiac O2 requirements as well as decrease myocardial perfusion
  • Also, coronary artery dilation may lead to coronary steal
A

Isoproterenol (Isuprel)

26
Q

T or F. Milrinone is an effective pulmonary vasodilator.

A

TRUE

27
Q

____ is used to Inc HR in presence of Heart block - maintains HR until pacemaker can be placed

A

Isoproterenol (Isuprel)

28
Q

What are the “Low,” “Med” and “High” dose ranges of Dopamine and which receptor is associated with each?

A

Low Dose <2 mcg/kg/min = DA receptor

Med Dose 2-10 mcg/kg/min = B1 receptor

High Dose 10-20 mcg/kg/min = A1 receptor

29
Q

___ is not a good 1st-line treatment for cardiogenic shock but can be used to treat refractory hypotension (shock, sepsis)

A

NE

30
Q

T or F. NE should only be given thru central access - not a PIV b/c extravasation->tissue necrosis.

A

TRUE
