Hypo is severe and symptomatic when <1
hypo can be caused by phospahte binding drugs alcohol intake and hyperparathyroidism

27

A

<1

28
Q

VTE prophylaxis

A

for inpatient

29
Q

IVIG

A

warning for thrombosis
HA, N/V/D
for Myasthenia gravis, multiple sclerosis, GBS

30
Q

ICU meds that target SNS

A

vasopressors
vasodilators
ionotropes

31
Q

what are some vasopressors

A

dopamine
epinephrine
norep
vasopressin
** all should be through central line

32
Q

MOA of dopamine

A

low dose- D1 agonist 1-4
medium dose- Beta 1 agonist
high dose- alpha 1 agonist 10-20mcg/kg/min

can cause vesicant, arrythmia, tachycardia, necrosis,

33
Q

MOA of epinephrine

A

A1 B1 B2 agonist
arrythmia, tachy, hyperglycemia

34
Q

MOA Norep

A

A1>B1

35
Q

phenylephrine MOA

A

A1

36
Q

vasopressin

A

AVP vasopressin receptor agonist

37
Q

how to treat extravastion caused by Alpha agonists

A

phentolamine

38
Q

what are vasodilators used in ICU

A

nitroglycerin
nitroprusside (nitropress)

39
Q

ionotrpoes in icu

A

dobutamine B1
PDE3 inhibitor milrinone

40
Q

types of shocks

A

Hypovolemic
distributive
cardiofenic
obstructive

41
Q

how to tx hypovolemic shock

A

fluid resuscitation with crystalloids for hypo shock not with hemorrhage
vasopressors will not work without effective intravascular volume

42
Q

distributive

A

when there is low SVR
septic anaphylactic and neurologic are ex of distributive

43
Q

septic shock

A

SOFA >2
alterered mental status
SBP<100
RR>22

44
Q

what are some contra indications of nitro

A

PDe5 inhibitors
HA Tachycardia
SBP <90

45
Q

high dose nitro is for

A

arterial vasodilation

46
Q

target MAP for treating shock

A

> 65
MAP= (2XDBP)+ SBP /3

47
Q

most common causes of ICU infections

A

Mechanical ventilation- psudomonas
foley catheter

48
Q

how to maintain MAP

A

vasoconstrictors and crystalloid fluids

49
Q

cardiogeneic shock

A

HF with worsening symptoms

50
Q

how to tx

A

avoid NSAIDS
avoid BB if Hypotension

51
Q

cardiogenic shock with volume overload

A

IV diuretics
vasodilators

52
Q

cardiogenic shock with hypoperfusion

A

inotropes
vasopressors

53
Q

cardiogenic shock with volume overload and hypoperfusion

A

combination of
IV diuretics
vasodilators
inotropes
vasopressors

54
Q

tx hypoperfusion if Bp is adequate

A

ionotrope with vasodilator

if not add vaso constrictors

55
Q

what are some non benzo sedation

A

prpofol
dexmedetomidine (precedex) preferred

56
Q

RASS scale

A

richmond agitation and sedation scale

57

stress ulcers

A

H2raas and PPIs

58

when is a risk for stress ulcer

A

mechanical ventilation >48 hours
coagulopathy
sepsis
TIA
major burns
AKI
high dose steroids

59
Q

anesthtics

A

local- lidocaine
inhaled - desflurane
secoflurane
inj- bupivacaine
ropivacaine

60
Q

neuromuscular blocking agents

A

causes paralysis
succinylcholine- depolarizing
cistra”curium” - non depolarizing
