Q

Pre- anesthetic medication ?

A

Q

-It is a potent anesthetic & weak analgesic

-It is suitable in children having pleasant odor.
-It is hepatotoxic but not hepatotoxic in children??

25
-given for treatment of malignant hyperthermia?
Dantroline
26
nephrotoxic drug and It is more muscles relaxant due to curare like action?
Enflurane
27
side effects of Enflurane?
CNS excitation, so should not be used in seizure like disorders.
28
((good for ischemic heart disease patient)) Because -It dilate coronary vasculature -increase coronary blood flow -increase myocardial O2 consumption
Isoflurane
29
Drug Cause hypotension **Does not** increase intracranial pressure?
Isoflurane اغلبهم الانهيليشنز يقللون BP وهذا من ضمنهم
30
………….. can cause transient sympathetic stimulation, thus may ↑ heart rate & BP ( inhaled GA )
**Desflurane** الوحيد اللي يزود ضغط الدم،بس بالنسبه لICP كلهم ممكن يزودونه اكسبت isuflurane
31
Inhaled anesthetics except………………depress respiration & ↑ PaCO2
N 2 O
32
• Inhaled anesthetics ↑ cerebral blood flow & ↑ ICP •………….. causes lesser ↑ in ICP but ……………. does not cause it.
N2O Isoflurane
33
Malignant hyperthermia Consists of:
tachycardia , hypertension, hyperthermia, muscle rigidity, hyperkalemia & acidosis الصراحه مدري شلون acidosis مع hyperkalemia بس الشكوى لله (Dantrolene is specific antidote) يعالج الموضوع الذيب
34
metabolized to fluoride ?
Enflurane \ Methoxyflu- rane nephrotoxic وكلهم
35
Recovery from intravenous anesthetics is due to ………. from CNS to muscle & fat.
redistribution
36
rapid injection Intravenous Anesthetics may cause ?
respiratory & cardiovascular depression.
37
Intravenous Anesthetics
• Barbiturates: Thiopental • Benzodiazepines: Medazolam, Diazepam, Lorazepam • Opioids: Fentanyl, Sufentanil , Remifentanil • Others: Propofol, Ketamine.
38
-Short acting barbiturates It is a potent anesthetic but a weak analgesic Commonly used IV for induction of anesthesia ?
Thiopental تم استبداله
39
Adverse effects of Thiopental
• Can cause cardiovascular & respiratory depression • ↑ acute intermittent porphyria & (((**bronchospasm**))) ممنوع للي عندهم asthma
40
Used as pre-anesthetic medication for sedative & amnesic effects & given before induction of anesthesia ?
Diazepam Medazolam افضل
41
(specific antagonist) is used to enhance recrvery from over sedation with benzodiazepines?
Flumazenil
42
Adverse effects of Opioids ( Fentanyl ) ?
• Chest wall rigidity & respiratory impairment
43
(specific antagonist) of opioids ( fentanyl) can be used to ↑ recovery?
Naloxone
44
Ketamine properties :
-Short acting nonbarbiturate G. anaesthetic. -antagonizes excitatory effect of glutamic acid on -Produce **dissociative anesthesia** ( patient seems awake) -Useful anesthetic for **cardiogenic , septic shock patients , patients with asthma** & good for children also young adults.
45
Ketamine Adverse effects:
not be used in hypertensive & stroke patients لانه يزود الضغط
46
It decreases B.P without depressing myocardium It decreases intracranial pressure. It is widely used & has replaced thiopental as a 1 st choice for induction of anesthesia & sedation?
Propofol
47
Adverse effects of Propofol ?
Muscles twitching, hiccups.
48
Local anesthetics definition ?
These are agents generally applied locally. They block nerve conduction of sensory impulses from periphery in a limited area to CNS without producing unconsciousness. affect touch, pressure and thermal sensations
49
-was the first agent used for Local anesthetics in (1884)
Cocaine
50
Esters LA?
Cocaine ( 2 - medium ) Procaine ( 1 - short ) Tetracaine ( 16 - long ) RBT. Long (Short - long acting مهمين بس)
51
Amides LA?
Lidocaine ( 4- medium ) Mepivacaine( 2- medium ) Bupivacaine (16 - long ) Prilocaine ( medium ) Ropivacaine ( 16 - long )
52
Pharmacokinetics of LA?
In infected tissues, PH will be low and penetration will be less
53
LA combination with local V.C ( Epinephrine, nor E) effects?
} To prolong the action of LA } To increase the depth of LA } To reduce the systemic toxicity of LA } To obtain hemostatic effect Don't produce unconsciousness
54
Rotes of administration of LA
1. **Topical application** (Nasal mucosa, wound margin, eye surgery ) 2. **Infiltration** (LA will be Injected in the vicinity of peripheral nerve Endings) 3. **Regional**anaesthesia ( large part of the body will be anaesthetised; it is divided into: -central technique “ **neuroaxial blocks** ” And -peripheral technique “**plexus block or nerve block**”. Neuroaxial blocks include **( epidural/spinal anaesthesia )**
55
For Prophylaxis in LA We give ?
IV benzodiazapines
56
Adverse effects of LA in CVS?
(**cause vasodilatation and ↓BP** ) الاهم -**All LA block Na+ channels, so depress abnormal cardiac pacemaker activity** -Also, depress the strength of cardiac contraction -Long-acting agents may produce ventricular arrhythmias
57
-Long-acting agents of LA may produce ventricular arrhythmias except?
**Cocaine**; blocks NE reuptake and accordingly, cause vasoconstriction and ↑BP **Cocaine dilate pupil**
58
Spinal Anaesthesia Advantages / Disadvantages
Advantages: 1- Less cost 2- Rapid recovery with no post- operative nausea and vomiting 3- No depression of respiration and airway are patent 4- Less post-operatively deep venous thrombosis “DVT” and pulmonary embolism Disadvantages: 1- Difficult technique 2- Doesn’t suit any patient/surgeon 3- Uncomfortable if long procedure (>2hr) 4- Infection
59
LA preferred For obstetric procedures ?
Bupivacaine and Ropivacaine
60
Complications of neuraxial anaesthesia?
1. Post dural puncture headache; occipital, ((**worse on standing** and relieved by lying down, more in young females)) 2. Spinal hematoma/Epidural abscess - Facial paralysis - Needle –stick injury & needle fracture
61
Uses of LA in dentistry
-((Reduce bleeding: Due to addition of vasoconstrictor)) اهم -Differentiate between pain from upper or lower tooth (pulpitis makes difficult to differentiate) Reduction of arrhythmias during general anesthesia Reduce depth of general anesthesia (less dose needed)
62
Compilation of local A?
-Failure to achieve LA; related tp hot pulp or apical abscess (pus decreases action of LA) -Hematoma -Trismus
63
Mechanism of action of cocaine?
It inhibits reuptake of norepinephrine Also cause anesthesia.
