| Term | Definition |
|---|
| inhaled general anesthetics | NO2, halothane, Enflourane, Isoflourane, Desflurane, Sevoflurane |
| Halothane | kids, liver toxic in adults, sevoflurane more used w. kids |
| Enflurane | increases intracranial pressure, can cause siezures |
| Isoflurane | cardiac irregularities, pretty fast recovery |
| Desflurane | coughing, quickly eliminated |
| Sevoflurane | no side effects, quick, great for kids |
| NO2 | weakest, fast, get pneumothoras or hypoxia |
| 4 stages of general anethestia | Analgesia, Excitement(passed by giving barbituate), Surgical anesthesia, medullary paraylysis (hopefully doesn't come to this!) |
| why is atropine given before sx? | it is an anticholinergic and will decrease risk of bradycardia during sx, also reduces salivary glow and secretion from respiratory glands |
| signs and contraindication of atropine | have mydriasis, no-no for glaucoma and nursing moms *bonus scopolamine and benztropine is similiar drug |
| malignant hyperthermia pt | autosomal dominant trait seen inanesthsia only, sudden rise in body temp, fixed with dantrolene |
| dissociative anesthesia | ketamine-puts people in a trance, increases salivary and bronchial glad secretions |
| resorbable sutures | plain gut, chromic, vicryl,dexon- cause tissue irritation |
| non-resorbable | Nylon, Silk, polypropylene |
| possibile etiologies of low platlet count | idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, disseminate intracascular coagulation, marrow invasion, hypersplenism, MONO, |
| barbituates provide | sedation but NO ANALGESIA, enhance GABA recpetor binding, alcohol and opiates enhance effect |
| last tissue to become saturated in IV barbituate administartion | fat |
| types of bleeding smallest to largest | petechiae, pupura, ecchymosis |
| rescue breathing for an adult with pulse | every 5-6 seconds, kids are 4 sec, infants 3 |
| stage of wound healing | inflammatory, proliferative (fibroblast lay collagen angiogensis), maturation-collagen fibers increase in strength |
| Phases of hemostatis | vascular- vcon, platelet-stickiness and plug, coagulation |
| how to get hemostatis | heat, suture ligation, pressure, epi |
| optium site for IV sedation for outpatient | mediam cephaic vien |
| this inhalant anesthtic needs heated vaporizor | desflourane-cough one |
| cases w. hypercalemia | high Ca, cancer and hyperparathyroidism |
| most common midface fracture | zygomaticomaxillary complex(side of face tripod fracture) |
| stages of shock | compensatory- increase HR and Peripheral ressiatnce, get blood to major organs so get cool skin, Progressive stage- metabolic acidosis, irreversible stage- organ damage |
| Categories of shock | hypovolemic, cardiogenic, septic, neurogenic, anaphylactic |
| anitcoagulant patients should not take this for pain | Aspirin, iburprofen and NSAIDs since interfere with platelet function |
| this narcotic has highest dependecy liagbility and is not a strong agonist | oxycodone |
| Strong narcotic analgesics | fentanyl, morphine, meperidine, methadone |
| mild/moderate narcotic analgesics | codiene, oxycocodone, hyrdocodone |
| what is in Percodan | oxycodone and aspirin |
| percocet | oxycodone and acetomenophin |
| lorect, loretab, and vicodin | hydrcodone and cetaminphin |
| tylenon 2, 3, and 4 | codiene with acetaminophen |
| most accurate way to take tempuratures | rectally, axillary is hte least effective |
| don't mix this with merepidine | MOA -phenelzine, tranylcypromine, selegine (used for parkinsons and depression) |
