37
Q

Pediatric laryngospasm can usually be avoided by extubating the pt with certain techniques. identify these tech

A

awake
deep
(anything in-between is hazardous)

38
Q

which inhalation agent has become the preferred induction agent for peds anesthesia

A

Sevoflurane

39
Q

the pediatric pt becomes hypothermic in the OR: list 5 expected anesthetic concerns

A
delayed awakening
cardiac irritability
resp depression
increased pulmonary vascular resistance
altered drug responses
40
Q

why is maintenance of heart rate so crucial in neonates and infants?

A

stroke volume is fixed by noncompliant and poorly developed LV
CO is therefore strongly dependent of HR

41
Q

A

treat for hyperkalemia

also long and heroic resuscitation efforts may be required
