5 contraindication for FOB
hypoxia
heavy airway secretions not relieved with suction or meds
LA allergy for awake attempts
inability to cooperate for awake attempts
What is the funtion of protein C in hemostasis
Vit K dependent anticoagulant. Thrombin activates protein C, which promotes fibrinolysis.
Cause of postop HTN after CEA
10-66% with HTN
exact mechanism unclear, but all mechanisms involve the carotid sinus baroreceptors.
May be from surgical denervation of the ipsilateral carotid baroreceptor, or chemical denervation of barorecptor, or carotid sinus dysfunction from surgical trauma.
Rank protein binding of LA from greatest to least
Bupivicaine.....95
Etidocaine, ropi, tetracaine......94
mepivicaine......77
lido......64
prilocaine.....6
Which LA has 0 protein binding
chloroprocaine
Which LA is not metabolized in neonates
Mepivicaine
Rank the amides LA, greatest to least, according to ability to cross the placenta
Mepivicaine
Etidocaine
Lidocaine
Ropivicaine

Maternal Elevated Locals are Risky to Baby
What are the 4 major and 7 minor signs of fat embolism. What is required to diagnose?
Major - axillary/subconjunctival petechia, hypoxemia, CNS depression, pulmonary edema.
Minor- fast HR, hyperthermia, retinal fat emboli, urinary fat globules, uneplained decrease platelets or HCT, increased ESR, fat globules in sputum.

Must have at least 1 major and 4 minor to diagnose with fat emboli
classic triad of s/s that strongly indicates fat emboli syndrome
arterial hypoxemia (dyspnea)
mental confusion
petechiae (neck,shoulders)
What is another name for metabolic acidosis with a normal anion gap? What is the mechansim for metabolic acidosis
Hyperchloremic acidosis.
Occurs when bicarb is lost from the body fluids thru GI or renal mechanims and is effectively replaced with chloride ions
Will either Lactic acidosis or ketoacidosis produce hyperchloremic acidosis?
no, both produce a metabolic acidosis but with a high anion gap because bicarb ions are used to buffer H ions from the excess production of metabolic acids
Identify implanted devices that are strong contraindications to MRI
vascular clips, stents, pacemakers, AICDs, implanted insulin pumps
Define critical incident
an event that causes or has potential to cause injury if not noticed and corrected in a timely manner
Is a ventilator disconnect a critical incident or sentinel event
critical incident
What is the indicidence of post op delirium in elderly
10-15%
What surgery is post op delerium most common in elderly
orthopedic
What type of delirium is most common in elderly
interval delirium..occurs after a lucid interval of 1 or more days after operation
What is the most common type of delirium in kids
emergence delirium, occurs within minutes of regaining consciousness
What are the benefits to cessation of smoking 12-24 hours preoperatively?
reduces carboxyhemoglobin levles and nicotine levels. 12 hours increases P50 and reduces plasma carboxyhemoglobin
Which exam test best assess hepatocellular damage?
5 NT
if 5 NT not there, GST
If 5 NT or GST not there go with ALT (SPGT)
What is the major potential complication of a D & C
perforation and hemorrhage
What is venous saturation of coronary blood, in other words what is the oxygen extraction level of coronary blood
30% (PaO2 18-20)
O2 extraction 70% assuming 100% sat
In steep trendelenburg, most of lungs are in what zone?
Zone 3 or 4
Zone 4 susceptible to pul interstitial edema
Pt taking lithium, what preop labs are of concern
lithium levels, Na
Low Na will decrease renal excretion of lithium. Avoid fluid restriction and excessive diuresis
What type of hypoxia is caused by carbon monoxide poisoning
tissue hypoxia, CO binds 200 more times than oxygen, reducing o2 carrying capacity of hemoglobin....functional anemia
What is the best assessment of adequacy of CO
mixed venous oxygen tension......elevation in response to increased demand reflecting inadequate tissue perfusion
describe anatomy of portal triad
portal vein, an hepatic artery, and a bile duct in the liver
What type of anesthesia maching should be tested with a negative leak test
all with check valves
How do you do a negative leak test
suction bulb attached to the common gas outlet, collapse bulb, assure remains collapsed for 10 seconds
What reflex best explains bradycardia after spinal
brainbridge relfex relates to the paradoxical slowing of the HR after spinal. Usually blockade of T1-T4 with unopposed PS stimulation.
BUT, with spinal more clearly R/T arterial hypotension than height of block due to decrease in venous return. low venous return sensed by barorecptors
identify local mediators released in response to hypoxia/ischemia in the kidneys
renal ischemia, hypotension, stress stimulated production and release of prostaglandins and bradykinin. Prostaglandins maintain RBF and Na and water excretion
Can PGE2 protect the kindeys from hypoxic injury
yes
during radical neck dissection, QT prolonged, why
trauma to the right stellate ganglion and cervical ANS ...lowers threshold for V Fib
What risk is associated with dysfunctional flush valve
sticking in open position, barotrauma
describe etiology of idiopathic thrombocytopenia purpura
autoimmune thrombocytopenia....persistent thrombocytopenia caused by antiplatelet antibodies that bind to platelet membranes, causing premture rupture of platelets
compared to skeletal muscle, what protein is not found in smooth muscle
both have actin and myosin\
smooth does not have regulatory troponin complex
mannitol, osmotic diuretic, what volume or electrolyte imblances may occur after administration
hypovolemia
hypokalemia
hypernatremia
should not alter BG
what is "tail coverage"
liability insurance protection for claims filed after the insured is no longer covered by the insurance policy, necessary b/c a majority of malpractice suits filed 1-3 years after event
during repair of CDH, SaO2 suddenly falls to 65% and HR increases 50 beats, what is cause and what should be done
any sudden decrease in lun compliance, HR, SAT, or BP suggests tension pneumothorax..
insert chest tube
at waht age are MAC highest for VA
1-6 months old

sevo is highest in neonates 0-30 days
is pneumothorax a potential complication of infraclavicular block
yes
