36
Q

Since there is an increase in CBF, there is also an increase in ICP. Who has the highest risk?

A

Pt with space containing lesions

37

Since there is an increase in CBF, there is also an increase in ICP. How can you fix this for a bit? (10-15 min)

A

Increase minute ventilation to dilute the CO2 and lead to cerebral vasoconstriction

A

0.8

39
Q

How much is ICP increased?

7 mmHg

40

A

Increased respiratory rate and decreased tidal volume

41
Q

What are the changes in ventilation seen? Why decreased TV?

42
Q

At what MAC may the pt go apneic?

A

1.5-2

43
Q

At what MAC do we see the hypoxic response blunted- how much of a decrease does that cause? How much MAC for it to be completely abolished?

A

0.1 - 50%
1.1 - 100%

44
Q

Can NO blunt the hypoxic response?

A

Yes

45
Q

Why might your pt be desaturating in PACU if everything else checks out ok?

A

Hypoxic response is still blunted from IA (lasts several hours)

46
Q

Does NO blunt the hypercarbic response?

A

NO! All of the others do but dose dependent

47
Q

What happens to PaCO2 when giving IA?

A

Minute ventilation is over all decreased so the PaCO2 will be less diluted (goes up)

48
Q

At what MAC does HPV happen and how much does it decrease the response?

A

2 MAC
50%

49
Q

What happens to MAP with IA? The biggest decrease in MAP happens with ___

A

MAP decreases because the Ca ++ channels are blocked, and decreased Ca able to enter and cause contraction of the vessel!

Halothane

50
Q

The decrease in MAP is due to the decrease in ___

A

SVR

51
Q

Does Nitrous cause cardiac depression?

A

NO! MAP is maintained.

52
Q

What happens to HR with IA?

A

Increases (helps with decrease in MAP and CO)

53
Q

Sevo increases HR at a MAC > than _ while all the others increase HR at a MAC less than that

A

1.5

54
Q

What happens to CO with IA? It is due to _

A

Decreased
SVR decrease

55
Q

IA can lead to prolonged QT which can lead to _

A

Torsades

56
Q

All IA have proarythmic effects except for _

A

Nitrous

57
Q

Do you have to worry about arrythmias with NO?

A

Not particularly

58
Q

Which IA causes refractory accessory pathway so you would want to avoid in ablation? Which has no effect on AP?

A

Iso
Sevo :)))

59
Q

What effects do IA have on immunity?

A

Decrease T cells, monocytes, macorphages

Increased cortisol

Avoid giving to cancer pts

60
Q

What change do IA’s make to hepatic BF? At what MAC does that happen?

A

Increase portal vein flow due to vasodilation!

1.5

61
Q

Which volatile leads to a decrease in hepatic blood flow?

A

Halothane

62
Q

When there ia a decreased BF with Halothane, can lead to hepatotoxicity. What is Type I and type II?

A

I: more common, 1-2 weeks after first exposure, lower mortality

II: less common, 1 month after second exposure, higher mortality

63
Q

Which drugs are oxidized by P450 to acetyl halide? What can that lead to?

A

E > I > D

Antibody rxn

64
Q

Which drug is metabolized to vinyl halide? So it cannot stimulate ___ formation. Safe for ___ pts

A

Sevo!
antibody
Liver

65
Q

IA lead to a decrease in renal blood flow due to a decrease in _

A

CO

66
Q

IA have preconditioning effects on the heart and the _

A

kidneys

67
Q

Nephrotoxicity can be caused by _

A

Flouride

68
Q

The worst IA to cause nephrotoxicity was _

A

Methoxyflurane b/c 70% metabolized

69
Q

Do newer volatiles cause nephrotoxicity 2/2 flouride?

A

No, they are exhaled before they can be metabolized

70
Q

Why can sevo cause combustion?

A

Sevo + Baralyme –> formaldehyde + MO

The rxn of those produces head + the expired air gets really hot –> could lead to fire

*If CO2 absorber feels hot, change it out

71
Q

What was added to Sevo to decrease combustion?

A

Water! Too cool it off and decrease the rxn of producing MO and FH

72
Q

What % of mortality exists with MH if untreated?

A

80%

73
Q

If 2 triggering agents are given for GA, what % chance for PONV exists?

A

Opiod + Volitile = 25-30%

74
Q

At what MAC will NO cause PONV?

A

< 0.5 MAC

75
Q

NO leads to 3 things:

A
  1. oxidizes B12 –> baby could have decreased B12 which is needed for DNA synthesis. Do not give to pregnant pt in 1st trimester.
  2. Bone marrow suppression if given for > 24 hr
  3. Increases homocysteine levels which lead to decreased B vitamins and increased atherosclerosis –> Mi
76
Q

Volatiles lead to decreased uterine smooth muscle contractility at what MAC?

A

0.5-1.5

77
Q

When would VIA be useful in pregnancy?

A

Retained placenta –> decreased contractility to release it

78
Q

Does nitrous have effects on contractility of uterus?

A

No. Can give if an epidural is running out of meds. Give NO which also has analgesic proprieties

79
Q

Which IA are sweet and non pungent?

A

Halothane, NO, Sevo

80
Q

Which IA are pungent

A

Des, Iso

81
Q

Halothane can cause which 4 (-) rxns?

A
  1. Occasional hepatic necrosis
  2. Pedi brady arythmias
  3. Catecholamine induced arrythmias
  4. Decompesition to Hcl acid
82

A

Iso

83
Q

Desflurane is identical to ___ (but sub a F for a Cl)

A

84
Q

Which IA would boil at OR room temp?

A

Des

85
Q

Which VIA is the most pungent so would be last choice for induction? What S/S would it cause?

A

Des
Coughing, salivation, golding your breath, laryngospasm

86
Q

IF absorbent is dry, Des will degrade to ___ . How will you know that is happening?

87
Q

Which VIA would you choose for induction?
