Definition
cyclosporines INCREASE MAC = INCREASE DRUG REQUIREMENTS. Cyclosporine is an immunosuppresant drug for transplants that targets T helper cells. |

NEED MORE! INCREASE MAC/INCREASE VOLATILE AMOUNT. B/c these drugs for depression treat depression by increasing central catecholamine levels. |

Term
Does MAC Awake or MAC Aware able to make memories |

|
Definition
|

NO EFFECT. Thyroid whether high or low has no effect on MAC |
|
|

|
Term
What is the MAC BAR for Sevo |
|
Definition
|
|

|
Definition
MAC at which you block autonomic resposne to stimulil. |
|
|
Term
an addition of ___ mcg/kg of fentanyl will decrease MAC BAR to? |
|
Definition
1.5-3 mcg/kg of fentanyl decreases MAC BAR to 0.4-0.63 MAC |
|
|
Term
Blood gas solubility for: 1. Desflurane 2. Nitrous 3. Sevo 4. Isoflurane |
|
Definition
1. Desflurane: 0.42 2. Nitrous: 0.47 3. Sevo: 0.59 4. Isoflurane: 1.4 |
|
|
Term
if a gas is being uptaked in the alveoli at a large rate then will the onset be increased or decreased. |
|
Definition
UPTAKE = BAD. More uptake means more volatile in blood and less in brain |
|
|
Term
describe the second gas effect |
|
Definition
When using nitrous + volatile. Nitorus is absorbed much more readily and result in alveolar collapse due to loss of gas. Now with a smaller size of alveolar space your monitors falsely register the volatile as being a larger % in this smaller space. |
|
|
Term
overpressure in relation to inhaled anesthetic means |
|
Definition
you crank up the gas so that you increase the concentration gradient to casue a fast onset of action. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Uptake = lamda x Q x Pa - Pv ------ P
P = barometric pressure Q = perfusion Lamda = B:G coefficent Pa = alveolar pressure |
|
|
Term
how do the following affect induction time for inhaled anesthetics 1. FRC |
|
Definition
Increased FRC means larger bucket to fill with gas. Means slower induction. Ex would be COPD patients
Decrease FRC in paturients or neonates or large abdominal tumors pushing up on diagphram means faster onset. Bucket is smalelr and filled up more quickly. |
|
|
Term
What type of shunt has an effect on induction of inhaled anesthetics |
|
Definition
R to L shunt will decrease induction time. |
|
|
Term
is cardiac output directly or indirectly related to agent uptake into the blood |
|
Definition
directly related. So higher the cardiac output then larger amount uptaked into blood. Greater uptake = slower induction. |
|
|
Term
what does the meyer-overton theory explain |
|
Definition
the correlation between lipid solubility of inhaled anesthetics and its MAC |
|
|
Term
O:G is proprotional or inverse to MAC |
|
Definition
INVERSE!!!! Higher the O:G then lower the MAC. So higher the O:G means more lipid soluble means more potenet. More potenet means the MAC will be lower. |
|
|
Term
What is the O:G of sevo and nitrous |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
Which coefficent predicts emergence times from anesthesia |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
What is the tissue:gass coefficent for 1. Nitrous 2. Desflurane 3. Sevo 4. Iso |
|
Definition
1. Nitrous - 1.22 2. Desflurane - 35 3. Sevo - 99 4. Iso - 110 |

|
Definition
|
|
Term
what do eyes look like during surgical anesthesia Stage III |
|
Definition
1. pupillary constriction 2. central gaze |

|
Definition
1. apnea 2. pupils are dilated and non-reactive 3. hypotension leading to complete CV collapse 4. TOO DEEP |
|
|
Term
All inhaled agents do what to brain |
|
Definition
decrease EEG and decrease CMRO2. But increase in CBF and Increase ICP. |
|
|
Term
Which volatile may actually increase EEG and can preciptiate seizures at high doses |
|
Definition
SEVO. That's one of the reasons why we don't use it during SSEP monitoring. |
|
|
Term
What is the best gas for limiting increaases in CBF |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
which gas has the most likely ability to cause EEG stimulation at high doses |
|
Definition
SEVO is the biggest culprit |
|

Term
the dose limit for exogenous epi for a patient on volatiles is |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
do our volatiles sensitize the myocardium to effects of exogenous and endogenous catecholamines? |
|
Definition
NO. Sevo, iso and des DO NOT Sensitize the myocardium. |
|
|
Term
Why do patients on volatiles have decrease TV |
|
Definition
due to loss of accessory muscles of respiration |
|
|
Term
at a MAC of ? We see a markedly depressed response of the body to hypoxia. This is due to depression of what part of our brain by volatiles and Nitrous |
|
Definition
CArotid body is depressed. At mac 1.1. |
|
|
Term
all volatiles interfere with heaptic drug clearnace via what two mechanisms |
|
Definition
1. reduction of heaptic blood flow 2. suppression of metabolizing enzymes |
|
|
Term
sevo when it reacts with ___ can produce compound A |
|
Definition
Sevo reacting with soda lime in the circuit forms compound A. Therefore it is a degradation product from co2 absorber not a metabolite. |
|
|
Term
