CO2 transport
- bicarb (60%), carbaminohemoglobin (30%), dissolved (10%) | - deoxygenation --> increased ability to carry CO2 (Haldane effect)
226
Nicotinic receptors
- autonomic ganglia | - skeletal muscle
227
Muscarinic receptors
- cardiac/visceral smooth muscle - secretory glands - sweat glands (innervated by SNS)
228
Eagle effect
Decrease effectiveness in PCN at high concentration of organisms
229
Risk factors for coronary artery aneurysm in KD
- age < 1 or > 8 yo - CRP > 100 - WBC > 30 K - male
230
Coronary perfusion pressure =
aortic DBP - RA pressure
231
Miller Fischer varient
ophthalmoplegia
232
Sodium correction for hyperglycemia
True NA = measure Na + 1.6 x ((glucose - 100)/100)
233
Sildenafil
- PDE5 inhibitor | - blocks degradation of cGMP
234
Reynolds number =
2Vrp/n (< 2000 = laminar, > 4000 = turbulent)
235
Pheochromocytoma management
- phentolamine (alpha blockade) | - beta blockade AFTER
236
Arsenic poisoning
- bloody, "rice water" diarrhea | - stocking glove peripheral neuropathy
237
Lead poisoning treatment
- dimercaprol (BAL) and EDTA (lead > 70) | - succorer (lead 45-69)
238
Mercury poisoning treatment
- dimercaprol (BAL) if clear history | - Do NOT give BAL if organic mercury --> increased CNS concentration
239
Edrophonium MOA
AchE inhibitor
240
APRV
- Phigh - set at/above plateau pressure - Thigh = 4-6 s - Plow - Tlow = 0.3-0.8 s - requires spontaneous ventilation
241
Burns
- superficial = 1st degree - superficial dermal = superficial 2nd degree (painful, dry edema, blanching, resemble sunburn) - deep derma = deep 2nd degree (waxy) - full thickness = 3rd degree (leathery, dry, painless)
