Monitoring Flashcards
(19 cards)
Role of monitoring
Avoid complications - awareness, hemodynamic surges, respiratory failure, AKI, hypothermia hyperthermia
Minimum monitoring required
ECG - 3leads
Pulse oximetry
NIBP - non invasive blood pressure
Capnography
Temperature if more than 1h
Additional monitoring in some situations
Invasive BP
Précordial stethoscope
CVP
ECHO
Urine output
Neuromuscular monitoring
Electronic brain monitoring
ECG lead used for arrhythmias
Lead II
ECG lead used for ischemia
Lead V
Neuromuscular monitoring
Peripheral nerve stimulator ( over ulnar nerve adductor policies)
Train of four (four stimuli 2hz for2s)
Signs and symptoms of light anaesthesia
Tachycardia ,Hpt
Tachypnoea , Coughing, Laryngospasm
Lacrimal ion, eye movement, sweating
Respond to pain
What is a capnograph
A graphical display of level of expired CO2 against time
What is ETCO2 - end tidal carbon dioxide
Highest level of expired CO2 on capnograph tracing during tidal breathing
What. Is it and give label
1 Inspiratory baseline
1-2 initial phase of exhalation
2 expiratory upstroke - sharp rise in CO2
3 expiratory plateau - alveolar ETCO2 35-45
4 Inspiratory down stroke
How is the capnograph if intubation in esophagus
No or very little co2 detected
Hyperventilation
Hypoventilation
Inadequate NM paralysis
Tube obstruction
Malignant hyperthermia
Loss of cardiac output
Breathing system disconnection
