Q

Cirrhosis

coagulation and treatment

A

Treat bleeding with FFP, Vitamin K, Platelets

Cirrhosis patients will have:

  1. Prolonged PT/INR
  2. Vit K deficiency
  3. factors II, V, VII, IX, X deficiency
  4. Thrombocytopenia

(Bleeding accounts for 60% of deaths in abdominal surgery →surgery contraindicated if Platelets are low )

Once a potentially serious vascular injury is suspected, immediate conversion to an open procedure must be considered.

Direct compression of the bleeding site is the quickest and safest way to gain initial control of blood loss, especially with a venous injury.

If the patient exhibits unstable vital signs, adequate volume replacement, while controlling the blood loss, must take place prior to attempting repair of the injury.

If the bleeding site is difficult to see, early and wide exposure of the site and the surrounding structures must be obtained.

The vessel wall must be repaired with precise intima to intima apposition without tension.

Venous injuries may be best handled by ligation rather than suture repair if the patient is unstable.

If ligation of a vessel does not lead to ischemia, definitive repair may be postponed until the patient is stable and/or when the appropriate vascular surgeon is available

Q

Considerations for Maintenance of anesthesia in cirrhosis patients

A
  1. Balanced technique:
    • Combine Volitile anesthetics (1/2 MAC), N2O and opioids.
  2. Manitain hepatic blood flow
    • Sevo, Iso and Des are all safe to use
    • MUST maintain an adequate BP →hypotension will decrease oxygen delivery to the hepatoytes
  3. Use NMBs that are metabolized in the blood
    • mivacurium, atracurioum, cis-atratrcurium, sux
    • Will also need larger doses → d/t larger volume of distribution, but also the doses will last longer
  4. Don’t give anything that will depress the heart!
  5. Patients will have low protein binding
  6. Bleeding risk
  7. Considered full stomachs
    • poor lower esophageal sphincter tone
  8. ​Give fluids that contain glucose → often they become hypoglycemic

Q

Acute Cholecystectomy

Patho

Procedure

Procedural considerations

A

CHOLELITHIASIS

  1. Gallbladder or biliary tract stone
  2. Fat, fair, women, over 40,
    • ​​also rapid weight loss, and pregnancy
  3. Present with: N/V, fever, abdominal pain, RUQ tenderness radiates to back, intense pain, dark urine, scleral icterus
  4. Surgery when condition has stabilized
    • Laparoscopic 5% convert to open
    • ERCP (endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography) – done under fluro

Laproscopic Procedures

  1. Insufflation of abdominal cavity
    • (pneumoperitoneum)→increased intra-abd pressure
    1. Inadequate ventilation
    2. Decreased venous return = decreased CO and increased MAP and SVR
      • due to increased abdominal pressure, neurohumoral response and absorbed CO2.
    3. Bradycardia due to peritoneal stretching
    4. Risk for vascular injury and acute blood loss

Considerations for Procedure

  1. Consider Volume & Electrolyte replacement (N/V)
  2. RSI with Cricoid Pressure cuffed endotracheal tube (Pain slows the gut!!!)
  3. Watch PIP/MV and adjust ventilation accordingly
  4. Reverse Trendelenburg aids surgical access and may improve ventilation
  5. Support BP and HR
  6. NG/OG tube (decompression of the stomach)
  7. Avoid nitrous oxide (it goes into the airspaces)
  8. Judicious use of opioids
    • Opioids may cause Sphincter of Oddi spasm, < 3% incidence (DO NOT use morphine and meperidine)
    1. Fentanyl has a much lower incidence
    2. Antagonize spasm with IV Glucagon 0.5 mg, Naloxone or Nitroglycerin

36
DTs timeline
* **6-8** hours of ETOH withdrawal pt may become **tremulous** * **24** hours **hallucinations**, grand mal **seizures** may occur * **DTs** within **72** hours Treat with **benzos**
37

43
Aminotransferase
* Lacks liver specificity → found throughout the body * **Cholestatic disorders** * **​**increased levels may indicate damage of hepatic membranes from **bile salt** * **5'NT =** most specific to billiary damage
44
International Normalized Ratio
* Strong **correlation** of deteriorating hepatic function * Used in Child-Pough score * Incicates impairment of hepatic synthesis of **coagulation** **factors** and **Vitamin K** * Tests **2, 7, 9, 10** and proteins **C** and **S**
45
Albumin
* **MOST** abundant plasma protein (only made in liver) * Synthesized by **hepatocytes** * _If levels are **decreased** may mean:_ * Protein manutrition * Loss of protein →nephrotic syndrome * severe reduction in synthesis from liver (acute liver failure will have high levels of albmin → albumin half life = 21 days )
46

52
Halothane Hepatitis etiology & anesthetic management
Etiology:​ * Trifluoroacetyl halide metabolites from VA metabolism covalently bond with microsomal proteins on hepatocytes - changing them from “self” to “nonself” * IgG antibody mediated * All volatile anesthetics, except Sevoflurane, can elicit immune-mediated hepatitis * Halothane most common culprit due to high degree of liver metabolism * sensitized individuals may show cross-reactivity with other volatile anesthetics (except SEVO) * 1-10,000-30,000 Anesthetic management: * TIVA or Sevo great options
53
Cirrhosis - assessment tool

57
Porphyria Signs and Symptoms
1. Severe abdominal pain/N/V due to autonomic neuropathy * ​​think RSI for induction 2. ANS instability 3. Electrolyte imbalances (Na, K, Mg) 4. Skeletal muscle weakness- respiratory failure 5. Cardiovascular instability resulting in Hypertension and tachycardia (less likely hypotension) 6. Seizures
