ITE block 6 Flashcards
(140 cards)
Post MTP and QT shortening what eletrolyte issue?
HyperK
EKG changes in hypoCa
prolonged QT due to prolonged ST segment
reduced PR interval
T wave flattening and inversion
J waves
Caused by hypercalcemia and hypothermia
One of the highest risk of leading to malpractice claims in anesthesia
residual anesthetic agents in PACU -> significant hypoxia
*resp events are one of the main causes
-so is cardiovasc d/o in relation to anesthetic medication
Effects of acute normovolemic hemodilution
Take some of pts own blood and replace with saline
-Inc in HR -> inc in CO to compensate
-Dec in blood viscosity -> Peripheral vasodilation -> inc in regional blood flow
no increase in O2 delivery, just the same with less Hg
O2 content equation
CaO2 = (SaO2 x Hg x 1.34) + (PaO2 x 0.003)
Maximum dose of lidocaine w/ Epi 1:200,000
7 mg/kg
-dose used for regional anesthesia
Maximum dose of lidocaine w/ epi 1:1,000,000
This is the dose used in tumescent anesthesia
-for liposuction
-dose is 35-55 mg/kg !!
-max: 5L of fat removal
Dermatome for medial knee
L3
Dermatome for medial malleolus
L4
Dermatome for lateral malleolus
S1
Lumbar n root that causes flexion of the lower extremity at the hip
L1-L2
Lumbar n root that causes extension of the knee
L3 and L4
Lumbar n root that causes flexion of the knee
L5 (S1-2)
Early decelerations in OB caused by?
Head compression w/ contraction -> activation of vagal resp
Late decels in OB caused by
Uteroplacental insuff -> fetal hypoxia and acidosis
Variable decels in OB caused by
umbilical cord compression -> baroreceptor or chemoreceptor med vagal activation -> dec blood supply and transient hypoxemia
Relative contraindications to MAC
unable to lie still
unable to follow instructions
unable to communicate w/ care team
What stimulates carotid body chemoreceptors
arterial partial pressure of O2
what innervates the carotid body chemoreceptor
glossopharyngeal nerve
-activated when partial pressure of O2 < 60-65 -> augment ventilation
Causes an increase in SvO2
Cyanide tox, Met-Hg (dec O2 extraction)
Increased cardiac output
blood transfusion
Inc oxyHg saturation
Dec SvO2
Decreased cardiac output
Inc catabolic state -> sepsis, shivering, fever, pain
Anemia
Dec arterial O2 saturation (PNA, pulm edema)
Pt w/ concern for possible aspiration PNA, but hemodynamically stable what now?
If pt is reliable and able to follow instructions, can send home w/ outpt f/u
if not reliable -> keep admitted to monitor for fevers, labs, f/u CXRs
-can get initial decompensation at time of event or 4-6 hrs later
*it pt hasn’t developed PNA by 12-24 hrs unlikely, and only give abx if actually has PNA
Mitral regurge hemodynamic goals
Normal to inc HR
Dec PVR
Dec afterload
Normovolemia
