30
Cat temperature under anesthesia

31
Normal arterial SaO2
97% or more
32
A PaO2 below 80mmHg (SpO2=95%) indicates
hypoxia
33
The measurement of blood pH and dissolved O2 and CO2 in both arterial and venous blood
Blood Gas Analysis
34
Blood gas analyzers measure
PaO2
35
When using a capnograph, it should measure how much CO2 inhalation
0
36
What is an alternate way to estimate the patient's temperature?
Touching the patient's ears and feet
37
Most common complication of anesthesia
Hypothermia
38
A true reflex that is present during light anesthesia and must return prior to extubation
Swallowing
39
A true reflex that is strong in cats, making intubation challenging
Laryngeal
40
True reflex that is a blink response to a light tap on medial canthus Retained during light anesthesia and may be absent during surgical anesthesia
Palpebral
41
You should delay extubation in what breeds?
Brachycephalic
42
True reflex that is flexion or limb withdrawal in response to forceful pinching Present in light anesthesia
Pedal
43
True reflex where response is blinking to touching the cornea with sterile saline
Corneal
44
This true reflex dimishes as depth increases, lost during deep anesthesia
PLR
45
True reflex that is lost very early, blinking due to bright light being shined on retina
Dazzle
46
True reflex where it is the flicking of the ear
Pinnal
47
NOT a true reflex, but a depth indicator that indicates very light anesthesia Ex: shivering
Spontaneous movement
48
Not a true reflex, opening the mouth and assessing resistance to determine anesthetic depth
Jaw Tone
49
Not a true reflex, size of anal orifice increases with excessive anesthetic depth
Anal Tone
50
Not a true reflex | Orientation of the cornea to the palpebral fissure
Eye position
51
When the animal is under light anesthesia, the eyes are
central
52
When the animal is under medium anesthesia, the eyes are
ventromedial
53
When the animal is under deep anesthesia, the eyes are
central
54
Not a true reflex, but these dilate with the deeper the anesthesia
pupils
55
Not a true reflex, | Oscillation of the eyeballs that is commonly seen in horses
Nystagmus
56
Not a true reflex, | Normal salive and tear production decreases with anesthetic depth
Salivary and Lacrimal secretions
