Q

how is reversal of NMB (neuro muscular blockade) achieved?

A

by competitive antagonism–competition b/t NMBA and ACh for the motoer end plate receptor at the NMJ- whichever is the greatest wins

Q

basic way cholinesterase inhibitors work for reversals

A

competitive antagonism - inhibits acetylcholinesterase (and other chilinesterases), so it increases the concentration of ACh at the NMJ

Q

why is the duration of binding short with edrophonium (Enlon)?

A

b/c once it binds it is liberated finds another site to bind to, and so on

Q

Why is edrophonium (Enlon) not recommended for deep blocks?

Q

just b/c shores may ask (b/c he is jealous that jake is a fucking wizard) what is the basic chemical make up of Neostigmine?

A

Quaternary ammonium compound

29
Q

IRREVERSABLE enzymatic deactivation (covalent)

31

poor

32

A

you bet your ass it does

33
Q

which Cholinesterase inhibitor is used for myasthenia gravis??? Hmmmmm

A

pyridostigmine

34
Q

is pyridostigmine a long acting or short acting cholinesterase inhibitor ?

A

long

35
Q

is pyridostigmine used in anesthesia

A

no (remember myasthenia gravis)

36
Q

what is a cholinesterase that is a precusor of neostigmine and is a teriary amine?

A

physostigmine (antilerium)

37
Q

seems important b/c it is totally differentwhat is special about physostigmine (antilerium)

A

it crosses the BBB increasing the ACh in the brain causing:confusionlethargyweaknessCHOLINERGIC CRISIS*

38
Q

what is physostigmine (antilerium) used for??

A

counteract delerium caused by benzos and barbs

hint: physostigmine (antiLERIUM)=deLERIUM

39
Q

all cholinesterase inhibitors are eliminated where?

A

renal: endophonium 70%, Neostigmine 50%

40
Q

Side effects of cholinesterase inhibitors?

A

Bradycardia, bronchospasm, increased airway secretions, nausea/vomiting, abd cramping, miosis (constriction of pupil), vision disturbance, micturation (voiding, peeing, weeing, pissing, etc).

so basically you go into a cholinergic chrisis, SLUDGE (too much ACh at postsynaptic cleft thus extreme PNS activation)

41
Q

Neostigmine (Prostigmine) dose, max dose, onset, peak, duration, Renal excretion %?

A

dose: 0.04 - 0.07 mg/kg

max dose: 5 mg

onset: 5 - 10 minutes
peak: 10 minutes
duration: 1 hour

Renal excretion: 50%

42
Q

Endrophonium (Enlon) dose, max dose, onset, peak, duration, Renal excretion %?

A

dose: 0.5 - 1 mg/kg

max dose: 40 mg

onset: 30 - 60 seconds
peak: 1 minute
duration: 45 minutes

Renal excretion: 70%

43
Q

If you had to get your patient reversed as quick as possible what would you give???

A

endrophonium

44
Q

whats another name for cholinesterase inhibitor “antidotes”?

A

anticholinergic agents or parasympatholytics

45
Q

what are 3 main anticholinergic agents, and there basic chemical compound?

A

atropine-tertiary amine

scopolamine- tertiary amine

gylcopyrrolate- quaternary amine

46
Q

should you give cholinesterase inhibitors without an anticholinergic?

A

no

47
Q

why is scopalamine rarely used

A

b/c of its significant central effects

48
Q

What is the general dosage recommendation for gylcopyrrolate (Robinul)?

A

Glyco 0.2mg for each 1mg of Neostigmine given.

(glycopyrrolate- 7mcg/kg–general rule of thumb neo and glyco are equal proportions 1cc to 1cc, because glyco is packaged as 0.2mg/cc and neo is packaged as 1mg/cc)

49
Q

What is the general dosage recommendation for atropine?

A

7-15 mcg/kg, given with endrophonium.

typical dose is 1 - 2 mg

50
Q

How do you reverse children, or anyone for that matter?

A

you always give your anti-cholinergic, wait for an increased HR, then give the cholinesterase inhibitor

51
Q

side effects of anti-cholinergic drugs

A
tachycardia
dry mouth
mydriasis (dilated pupils)
vision disturbance
**CONFUSION***

(opposite of cholinesterase inhibitors)

52
Q

**what shores whats us to know about sugammadex ( he stated in his lecture just know this)

A

-cyclodextrin structure -not used in the US-causes encapsulation
