pulse ox and capnography!
-all MAC cases should have both
29
Desaturation signs could be delayed with supp O2, what would help you catch these signs early during a MAC case?
Capnography!
-in most if not all cases really
-resp depression is 17.6 x more likely to be caught while using cap
-catches obstructions, apnea, other events quicker than you can
30

-purposeful response to verbal or light tough stim
-airway, spont vent
-CV function are preserved
39
Deep sedation =
-purposeful response to **REPEATED** or painful stim but may lose response to verbal or light touch stim
-COULD need help with airway patency
-CV function maintained usually
40
GA=
-pt is unarousable to painful stim
-airway support is REQUIRED and spont ventilation is usually inadequate, needing PPV
-CV function could be altered
41
Ramsay Sedation Scale (RSS)
-what inspired the creation of the RASS scale
-observed sedated ICU pts
-6 levels; 3 w pt awake, 3 w pt asleep
42

43
Modified Observer's Assessment of Alertness/Sedation Scale (OAA/S scale)
4 areas of observation:
-responsiveness, speech, facial expression, eyes
score 1= deep sleep, score 5= alert
-USED FOR PROCEDURAL SEDATION(mods by ASA)
44
BIS and EEG have limited ability to evaluate pt response to anesthesia/sedation when pt has neuro deficits such as:
-aphasia
-deafness
-paralysis
45
BIS has been shown to correlate with _ scale during propofol induced sedation for regional anesthesia
OAA/S
46
Typically, lower BIS number, more _ pt is.
sedated
-typically absence of recall assoc w BIS <80 (BARASH) or <60 (Anesthesiology?)
-BIS can vary depending on meds given so not perfect
47
BIS target for MAC=
60-80
48
BIS target for GA=
40-60
49
T/F Isolated hypoventilation requires large increases in supp O2 to restore O2 sat to adequate levels
false, MODEST, not significant
-only in isolated hypoventilation, not pt w resp disease/complication
50
T/F A pt may have significant underlying alveolar hypoventilation despite acceptable O2 sat and minimal O2
true
-hence why we like capnography
51
A normal A-a gradient is _ which is low. If it becomes higher, this could indicate a _.
10**mmHg**
shunt
52
T/F My patient is not requiring supp O2 in MAC case so I don't need to monitor capnography
false!!!
53
Most common equipment related problem in MAC cases:
cautery fires around head and neck
54
Fire risk score components=
-heat
-fuel
-O2
55
Key risks for fire in OR (1 point each, 3pts = high fire risk)
-surg site/ incision above xiphoid
-open O2 source (supp O2)
-ignition source (electrosurg unit, laser, FIS, cautery)
-score 3= all 3 present
-score 2= procedure is in the thoracic cavity, the ignition source is remote from an open oxygen source, the ignition source is close to a closed oxygen source, or no supplemental oxygen is used.
-score 1= just supp O2
56
2nd most common cause of injury in MAC cases:
cautery fires
-really?!
57
Factors contributing to fire risk
-supp O2
-cautery
-alcohol prep
-flammable drapes
-drapes tenting with O2 inside
58
Fire risk prevention:
-avoid tenting drapes, open face draping
-lowest acceptable supp O2
-**using compressed air instead of O2 to prevent CO2 accumulation**
-stop O2 flow for 60sec before cautery
-avoid alcohol prep solutions
-awareness of fire causes
59
Venturi masks and fire risk:
-causes entrainment of O2 rich gas if under drapes
-just avoid this mask if cautery will be happening near face
60
Pain agitation may be the result of:
-pain
-anxiety
-**hypoxia**
-hypercarbia
-**impending LAST**
-cerebral hypoperfusion
-**noxious stim like temp extremes, itch, full bladder, IV infiltration, prolonged pneumatic tourniquet**
61
Continuous infusions are generally _ to intermittent bolus dosing. Why?
superior
-They produce less fluctuation in drug concentration, reducing number of episodes of inadequate or oversedation and prompts sooner recovery
62
After IV admin of drugs, distribution occurs **simultaneously** to the vessel-rich groups and tissues like _ and _
muscle and skin
-fat and bone is later and accumulate there if lipophilic; could cause delayed recovery if takes a while to redistribute back to central compartment
63
Elimination half life is only reliable in _ -compartment pharmacokinetic models because only factor changing drug concentration in these models is elimination
single
64
T/F In multi-compartmental pharmacokinetic models useful parameters include: elimination half life, distribution half life, distribution volume, intercompartmental rate constants etc.
false, these are not reliable, play a minor role
-context sensitive half time is more useful
65
During early parts of infusion of lipophilic drugs, distributive factors _ plasma concentrations as drug is sent to unsaturated peripheral tissues, then _ infusion is discontinued, drug will return from peripheral tissues and re-enter central circulation.
decrease
after
66
Context sensitive half time (CSHT) =
time needed for plasma drug concentration to decline by 50% AFTER stopping infusion of particular duration
-a function of the LENGTH of infusion too
67
Context sensitive half time reflects the combined effects of _ and _ on drug disposition
distribution and metabolism
68
T/F The context sensitive half times of all drugs bear constant relationship with their elimination half times
false
-ex) fentanyl has shorter elimination half life than sufentanil but its context-sensitive half time is much longer than sufentanil after 2 hr, lasts in system longer
69
T/F Context sensitive half time is significantly increases in propofol and thiopental
FENTANYL and thiopental
- not propofol; despite lipophilic nature and slow return from peripheral tissue, context sensitive half time is short due to its rapid metabolic clearance
70
T/F context sensitive half time helps determine how long it will take for pt to recover from MAC
false; partly
-**effect site (brain) concentration decay** describes this
-CSHT only describes how long it will take for plasma concentration of drug to drop by 50%
-pt still has 50% of drug left in plasma
71
Awakening from MAC anesthesia is usually a function of:
effect site (brain) concentration decay
AKA when drug leaves effector site!
-CSHT , length of infusion, and cardiac output can play a role
-can show a variable time lag behind changes in plasma drug concentration
72
The delay in onset of drug effects upon IV injection is the result of
distribution
73
t1/2ke0 is the half-time of equilibration of drug concentration in blood and effect.
The shorter the t1/2ke0, the _ delay of onset it has due to it _ equilibrating with the brain.
shorter
rapidly
-allows for predictions of time course of equilibration of drug between blood and brain
-help determine bolus spacing so drugs reach peak effect without needing to rebolus
-peak effect time does NOT = t1/2ke0
74
Drugs with short t1/2ke0:
Thiopental
Propofol
Alfentanil (1.1 min)
75
Drugs with long t1/2ke0:
Midazolam
Sufentanil
Fentanyl (6.4 min)
76
A low cardiac output will _ drug arrival to site of action
delay
77
What dangerous effects does pre-existing or iatrogenic low cardiac output have the potential to cause if blood flow is reduced to typical redistribution sites for a drug?
-delayed drug effects
-prolonged drug effects
78
Plasma concentration of a drug at steady state needed to abolish purposeful movement at skin incision in 50% of pts (like MAC for volatile anesthetics) is its _
CPss50
79
In MAC cases, the max benefit of opioid supplementation in terms of potentiation of other sedatives will accrue when opioid is used in its _ dose range
analgesic
-~(0.6ng/mL)
-can reduce CPss50 of prop by 50% when used in conjunction with it
-can also increase risk of cardiorespiratory interaction
80
During MAC cases, using midazolam and fentanyl can put pt at high risk for
hypoxemia and apnea
-SYNERGISTIC! (this helps reduce CPss50 doses but comes with risks)
81
Goals of MAC:
-sedation/ hypnosis
-amnesia
-anxiolysis
-analgesia (consider how painful, stimulating procedure can be)
-minimize N/V, cardiorespiratory depression
-avoid delayed emergence
-just like GA but may have quicker recovery/discharge
82
T/F The rapid awakening from propofol is due to its metabolism primarily
false!
-while liver metabolizes it quickly, its rapid **REDISTRIBUTION** is the main cause
83
T/F The rapid onset from propofol is due to its rapid redistribution primarily
false, DISTRIBUTION for onset and redistribution for awakening
-redistribution is when drug goes from central compartment to peripheral
84
How to prevent propofol from burning on injection:
-**use big vein** (AC instead of hand IV)
-**pretreat/mix with Lido + prox venous occlusion**
-slow inject
-cool or give cooled saline (4*C) prior to injection
-dilute with 5% glucose or 10% intralipid
-inject into fast-running IV line
-DC IV fluid admin during injection?
-pretreat w opioid
85
Propofol can help with N/V when given in _ doses, especially with antiemetics
subhypnotic (~10mg)
86
Benefits of propofol for MAC
-fast on/off (short CSHT)
-easily to titrate to can convert to GA with an infusion or wean off and quickly recover
-better hypnotic than midazolam
-antiN/V
87
What is an ideal medication to treat anxiety during MAC?
Midazolam
-remember hypoxia and hypercarbia can also cause anxiety, treat the right cause
88
What does Midazolam give and what does it not give?
-anxiolysis, amnesia, hypnosis/sedation (high doses)
-does NOT give analgesia
89
Midazolam is best given in small doses of _-_mg IV before going to OR or for short MAC cases ~ _ mins in length.
0.5-2mg
15 mins
90
Midazolam is't great for longer cases and repeat doses bc it can cause:
-confusion
-prolonged sedation
-amnesia
91
When is midazolam contraindicated in MAC?
-long MAC cases (longer than 2hr-just do GA)
-as sole anesthetic
-old pts (can give 50% of dose if necessary)
-children or **pregnant pts**
-if pt is anxious due to hypoxia, hypercarbia, or LAST
-when prop is being used(prop is usually enough)
92
93
Most popular med for hypnosis during MAC?
propofol
94
Short MAC case=
~15 min give or take
95
Long MAC case =
~2hr give or take
-prolly just do GA at this point
96
Which MAC method gives faster recovery, boluses or infusion?
infusion
97
Novel techniques for MAC:
Target controlled
-uses pt demographics to dose -age, wt, ht
-not yet FDA approved in US due to varying pharmacokinetics?
Closed loop delivery systems
-use single or multiple inputs (BIS, BP, etc) to control single or multiple outputs (rate of admin)
98
T/F Considering age when giving midazolam, the difference in dose requirements for elderly pts is primarily related to pharmacokinetics
false,
pharmacodynamics
99
The effects of midazolam can recur after _ mins following flumazenil
90
-don't prematurely discharge pts who were reversed!
100
Midazolam binds to and activates the _ receptors
GABA
101
Remimazolam (from Barash, not Holly ppt)
-MOA
-metabolism
-elimination
short acting IV benzo
-activates gamma aminobutyric acid A (GABAa)
-is metabolized by nonspecific esterases
-albumin bound and excreted in urine
102
Remimazolam (from Barash, not Holly ppt)
-MAC recovery time
-reversal
5-20 min recovery
flumazenil
103
Remimazolam (from Barash, not Holly ppt)
-dose
initial: 0.2mg over 1 min
-repeat 0.2mg if desired LOC not achieved in 45 sec
-keep repeating PRN Q 1 min up to 1mg
104
What should you treat pain with during MAC cases?
-opioids or LA
105
When are opioids indicated in MAC?
-part of a balanced anesthetic (think about goal for pt)
- when regional or LA isn't appropriate for procedure
106
Most common opioid used for MAC
-fentanyl
-alfentanil
-remifentanil (common infusion opioid-avoid bolus)
-typically used prior to painful/invasive technique
-if needing long-acting pain relief shoot for LA
107
Remifentanil has similar pharmacodynamic properties as other _ opioid receptor agonists but is metabolized by _ _
mu
non-specific esterases
-great for hepatic/renal impaired pts
108
Why give Remifentanil over infusion rather than bolus?
-infusion helps have tighter control of analgesia, improves conditions for proceduralist, and helps minimize resp depression
-if bolused, increases risk of cardiorespiatory effects such as chest wall rigidity and respiratory depression; if must give bolus, give over 30-90sec
109
CSHT and effect site equilibration time of remifentanil
CSHT: 3-5min
effect site equilibration time: 1-1.5 min
110
Good uses for Remifentanil
-analgesic component of sedation for LA and regional
-well suited for MAC cases
111
Good additions to remifentanil:
-midazolam (remember to give 1/2 dose remi with this; increased pt satisfaction, increased amnesia, decrease N/V, decreased anxiety)
-propofol
112
What is typical infusion rate change for remi, upward limit and how is it supplied?
adjust rate in increments of 0.025mcg/kg/min
upward limit of 0.2mcg/kg/min
supplied as powder, must be reconstituted
113
;Ketamine indications
-analgesia
-sedation/hypnosis

-give with glyco 0.2mg IV to prevent secretions
116
Ketamine
-side effects
-contraindications
-pt may move still
-secretions
-hallucinations
CI: psych history, glaucoma, open-globe injury (increases IOP and ICP)
117
Ketofol
-pros

long half life
122
Most common cause of death during MAC is
excessive sedation leading to respiratory compromise
123
On insp, upper airway is subatmospheric, tending to collapse. Which mechanisms prevent this?
upper airway dilator tone (increase diameter and reduce compliance of upper airway JUST before diaphragm contracts)
124
Sedative doses of _ can increase inspiratory subglottic airway resistance 3-4x and selectively suppress genioglossal muscle activity more than diaphragmic
benzos
-even more in elderly pt and COPD bc lack resp reserve to increase WOB
-risk for obstruction
125
T/F All sedative drugs reduce ventilatory responsiveness
false
-opioids (esp with benzos) and sometimes regional do
126
Complete recovery of swallow reflex occurs about _ min after return of consciousness from propofol but is significantly depressed for _ hrs after midazolam emergence
15min
2hr
127
For MAC cases and pts with high risk aspiration:
-try to keep as light as possible, NO PROPOFOL
-if pt can't protect own airway/ recognize regurg, just intubate and go GA
128
Laryngospasm occurs usually from stimulation of the laryngeal mucosa sitting _ to the vocal cords excite the _ nerve via the internal branch of the _ _ nerve
superior
vagus
superior laryngeal
129
Motor response once laryngospasm is trigger is:
From RLN:
1. lateral cricoarytenoids contract and ADDuct/ medially rotate arytenoid cartilage
2. thyroarytenoid muscles shorten vocal cords and cause glottic closure
From SLN
3. Cricothyroid muscle tenses VC via external branch of SLN
-splanchnic nerve may play a role too?
130
Laryngospasm closure can occur in 3 places:
-true vocal cords
-aryepiglottic folds
-vestibular folds
131
Laryngospasm is more common in young or old pts?
young
132
PPV helps break a lot of laryngospasms but if there is a complete closure can resist as much as _mmHg
140mmHg
-wow, will def just inflate stomach
133
How can hypercarbia help a laryngospasm?
depresses adductor activity with hypercarbia and severe hypoxemia (PaO2<50mmHg) inhibits laryngospasm eactivity
134
Definitive tx for laryngospasm:
sux or NDMR to paralyze
-don't use 1st but use earlier than later to prevent a lot of harm
135
Why should you have emergency rescue meds ready with MAC cases?
risk of cardiac events increase, poss risk of resp depression, etc
136
Factors that can cause BP derangements and arrythmias during MAC cases:
-decreased arterial volume from NPO status
-vagal cardiac reflexes (oculocardiac reflex and trigeminovagal reflex)
-poor pain control
-poor sedation depth
-anxiety
-fluid overload
137
Pts most likely to suffer effects of LAST during MAC cases:
pts who weren't fit for surgery -elderly, comorbidities, frail
138
LAST s/s
-increasing concentrations
Low:
-sedation and numbness of tongue and circumoral tissues
-metallic taste
-tachy/high BP
Increasing:
-restlessness, vertigo, tinnitis, difficulty focusing
High:
-slurred speech, skeletal musc twitching, tonic-clonic seizures, cardiac s/s - brady, low CO (sometimes seen 1st)
139
Things that can contribute to LAST in MAC
-low CO from other drugs decreasing hepatic flow and increasing amount of LA in serum
-hypercarbia sending more LA to brain and also potentiating cardiovascular toxicity of LA
-sedatives impairing pt ability to communicate something is wrong
140
Non-OR anesthesia (NORA) comes with challenges such as:
-unfamiliar room set up/ equipment
-poor lighting
-lack of resources or personnel
-room layouts impeding pt access
none of these excuse adverse events
141
Titrate sedation for MAC by :
pt ability to follow commands
142
T/F For deep sedation, ASA recommends an independent provider, different from person performing procedure, be dedicated to giving sedation and monitoring pt
false, ASA **REQUIRES** this
143
T/F Education and training providers for sedation is required
false, just recommended
-haha wtf
144
T/F With deep sedation ASA recommends a BLS trained person should be in the room
False,
ACLS, and they should be able to place an airway and maintain oxygenation and ventilation
145
Pts who should have a consult before going forward with sedation and analgesia with NONanesthesiologists
-uncooperative pts
-age extremes
-severe cardiac, pulmonary, renal, hepatic, or CNS disease
-morbid obesity
-OSA
-pregnancy
-drug/alcohol use disorders
146
CMS defines people who can provide deep sedation as:
-physician anesthesiologists
-MD/DO
-dentists
-oral surgeon
-CRNA
CAA
-nonanesthesiologists must get extra training
147
Which 2 types of sedation fall under "analgesia" services:
minimal and moderate
148
ASA mandates which drug restrictions for deep anesthesia:
-propofol, ketamine, and etomidate
-strictly for the use of deep sedation so only qualified personnel can use
149
LAST CPR
-initial priority
airway management
-want to prevent hypoxia and prevent resp and metabolic acidosis which would potentiate LAST
150
LAST CPR
-most important factor during
high quality CPR to perfuse heart and **move around lipid to reduce LA concentration**
151
LAST CPR
-why give less epi?
give doses <1mcg/kg bc it will increase afterload and impair gas exchange
-will cause unwanted vasoconstriction in small vessels too (leaving more LA in brain/heart)
152
LAST CPR
-drugs to avoid
-Epi (only give small doses <1mcg/kg)
-Lidocaine (obv)
-Vasopressin
-Procainamide
-CCB (cardizem, verapamil, nifedipine)
-beta blockers
153
LAST CPR
-first choice drug for Vfib/pulseless VT unresponsive to CPR, defib and vasopressor therapy
Amio
154
LAST CPR
-CPR may be prolonged and require:
VA-ECMO
155
LAST
-MOA
-reduces Na+ influx via v-gated ion channels from increasing energy barrier and steric hindrance, this happens from WITHIN cell and requires the LA to go thru lipid bilayer 1st
-also blocks Ca++ ion channels, protein kinase signaling for TNF-alpha and carnitine-acylcarnitine translocase in mitochondria (this seems extra)
156
LAST
-cardiac toxicity is from:
electrophysiologic and contractile dysfunction
157
LAST can occur at levels lower than expected because it accumulates in the _ and _ tissue 6x greater than the plasma
mitochondria and cardiac tissue
158
Most cases of LAST happen within _ but could be delayed more than _
1 min
1hr
159
Which LA has an increased risk of toxicity?
Bupivacaine
-more lipophillic
160
Where does LA usually "depot" in LAST?
skeletal muscle
161
Highest incidence of LAST occurs with _ _, then upper extremity, trunk, and lower extremity.
paravertebral blocks
162
Pts with a decreased serum level of _ are at risk of it indirectly increasing the level of LA causing LAST
albumin
-malnourished, liver/kidney failure
163
3 pillars of LAST tx:
-seizure management
-ACLS
-prompt admin of 20% lipid
164
You give your pt regional anesthesia and a few minutes later, they are seizing but VS are otherwise stable. Do you give them a benzo or propofol to help with the seizure?
Benzo-versed
don't give prop bc CV effects may not have come yet and you will bottom them out more easily
165
Interlipid
-MOA
-scavenging effect, pulls LA with it and distributes it to sites where it can detoxify (fat)
-increases CO by increasing volume and direct cardiotonic effect that help restore CO once drug level drops below its ability to block ion channels
166
When to give Interlipid for LAST?
-given at earliest signs of LAST to improve resuscitative efforts
167
LAST
-prevention
-using US
-intravasc markers
-incremental injection w/ frequent aspiration
-less toxic drug and dose if poss
-**TEST DOSE EPI 10-15mcg (if intravascular will see HR rise 10+ bpm and/ or SBP rise 15+mmHg)**
168
Roughly _% of LAST cases are atypical and you will only see CV s/s first or will have delayed CNS s/s
50%
169
Lipid dose
-bolus and infusion
B: 1.5**mL**/kg IV
I: 0.25**mL**/kg/min ("JUST GIVE WHOLE BAG!"-Holly)
170
Fire protocols
-Anesthesia provider
-ensure full syringe of saline is nearby for oral cavity cases
-document O2 conc and flows
-use MAC circuit for O2 initially at FiO2 30% using FGF 12L/min
