Anesthetic Flashcards
(44 cards)
Inhalation anesthetic
Volatile liquid,sevoflurane, and gaseous nitrous oxide
Non inhalation anesthetic
Propofol,ketamine,etomidate, midazolam
Premedication agents are
Atropine, diazepam and midazolam
Sedative agents
Dexmedetomidine
Myorelaxaxants
Rocuronium,suxamethonium
Local anesthetic
Lidocaine,bupivacaine, benzocaine
Anesthesia causes
Amnesia,loss of consciousness,immobility
The stronger the drug
The lower MAC
Depth of anesthetic is controlled by
EEG and hemodynamic function control
4 stages of general anesthesia
Analgesia, excitement, surgical anesthesia, respiratory paralysis
Propofol is
Allosteric modulator of GABAA receptor and has hypnotic and sedative effect
Use of propofol
Maintenance of generalized anesthesia,induction anesthesia and sedation
Etomidate
GABA a allosteric modulator, sedative and hypnotic effect
Etomidate use
Induction anesthesia
Ketamine
NMDA receptor channel blocker analgesic,dissociative anesthesia
Ketamine use
Maintenance of general anesthesia, induction anesthesia and postoperative sedation
Dissociative anaesthesia means
A cataleptic condition in which the patients eyes are open,but he is not communcative
Sevoflurane
GABA receptor modulator, anesthetic effect
Sevoflurane use
Maintenance anesthesia,but has arrythmogenic effect
Malignant hyperthermia
Increased temp, tachycardia, respiratory failure,acidosis, rigidity and rhabdomyolysis
Nitrous oxide
NMDA receptor antagonist, sedative and analgesic effect,no muscle relaxation effect
N2O use
Maintenance anesthesia
N2O causes release of
Endogenous opioid peptides(endorphins)
Dexmedetomidine
Central alpha 2 receptor agonist
