3. Premedication --> Maintenance of Anesthesia Flashcards
(132 cards)
benzodiazepine drugs
midazolam (versed)
lorazepam
diazepam
benzodiazepine mechanism
binds to GABA receptor
benzodiazepine effects
anxiolysis
antegrade amnesia
anticonvulsant
minimal cardiac/resp depression
benzodiazepine reversal agents
flumazenil (Romazicon)
benzodiazepine side effects
increased apnea
increase risk of post-op cognitive dysfunction
midazolam administration
IV
PO
intranaal
midazolam IV dose
1-2mg
midazolam PO (peds)
0.3-0.7 mg/kg
up to 20mg
midazolam intranasal dose
0.2-0.5mg/kg
causes nasal burning
midazolam onset IV
rapid
20-25 secs
midazolam onset PO
10-15 min
midazolam onset intranasal
5-10 min
Pre-Induction Checklist
Machine
Suction
Monitors
Airway (+emergency devices)
Invasive lines
Drugs
Special items
most common methods for inducing pt
IV
Mask
IM (ketamine dart)
fresh gas flow (FGF)
how fast gas is flowing
(L/min)
Inspiratory concentration factors
(Fi)
Fresh gas flow
breathing circuit volume
circuit absorption of agent
when machine absorbs a high amount of agent…
the pt absorbs less agent
FGF and Fi relationship
directly proportional
FGF and circuit volume relationship
???
increase volume decrease delivery?
alveolar concentration factors
(FA)
uptake (into blood)
minute ventilation
overpressurization
we want FA to ______
increase as quickly as possible
uptake (into blood)
incr uptake decr partial pressure
uptake factors
blood:gas coefficient
pulmonary blood flow
difference in alveolar gas and blood
blood: gas coefficient
tells us how soluble an agent is in the blood
more soluble = more uptake
= slower FA increase
