protein binding
If the pKa of a LA is 8.1 does that mean there is more ionized or unionized drug when injected into physiologic pH (7.4)
More Ionized
Which form of the LA is responsible for binding to the Na channel once inside the cell? ionized or unionized?
Ionized
Which form crosses the lipid membrane?
unionized

True or False? The aromatic group of a LA is lipophilic?
True
True or false? The amine group of a LA is lipophilic?

True
what are most people allergic to with ester LA?
PABA. p-aminobenzoic acid
Why do we use preservative free LA?
because some people are allergic to the preservatives used in amide LAs. (Methylparaben)
Is bupivacaine and cocaine both amide LAs? How can you tell?
No. one i means it is an ester. two i's means it is an amide.
True or false? Once the LA is in the cell, the amine group becomes a quaternary amine, thus giving it a positive charge or "ionizing" it?
true
If the amine group on the LA becomes a quaternary amine (LAH+) OUTSIDE the cell, is it ionized or unionized and can it enter the cell?
ionized and No. Quat does squat outside the cell.
why are LA stored in acidic solutions?
to prevent precipitation of free base local anesthetic
Why does adding a base such as bicarb to LA just before administration increase onset?
it will cause less ionization and more unionized will be available to cross lipid membrane. Similar to Henry's Law: the more available the faster the diffusion(except that it's not a gas)
What does adding epinephrine to LA do to the duration?
increase duration because the epi causes local vasoconstriction thereby decreasing the amout of systemic absorption, allowing it to stay where it was injected longer.
Will a LA be effective in an area that is necrotic (acidic)?
No, it will be nearly 100% ionized and cannot cross the lipid membrane. (look at the curve) (it would be almost like what it is preserved in)
True or false? If the LAs pKa is 7.4 and the physiologic pH is 7.4 there will be 50% ionized and 50% unionized drug?
true
What areas of body should you not use epinephrine with LA?
areas with no collateral flow such as digits.
Define tachyphylaxis (Evers p517)
if one has an epidural and waits til the pain comes back before redosing it can lead to tachyphylaxis where the subsequent doses are not as effective. If you redose before pain comes back it doesn't occur.
Will a drug that is a weak acid have more or less drug available (unionized) in one who's pH is 6.9? How about 7.45?
There will be more drug available in the pH of 6.9 that 7.45

Which drug would theoretically be metabolized faster? Amide or ester?
Ester because of plasma ester hydrolysis. Amides have to make it to the liver first.
What are the 3 processes in Amide metabolism
N-dealkylation-An enzyme detaches one or more carbon atoms from the amine group, making it either a 2° or 1° amine.
Amide Hydrolysis-Enzyme breaks down H2O into one H and an OH. Then uses OH to replace the N group in the amide.
Aromatic Hydroxylation-
Introduction of the OH (Hydroxyl group) to the benzene ring.
Describe Ester Hydrolysis.
Objective is to replace the OR group with an OH (Hydroxyl group) and form carboxylic acid. Enzyme (plasma cholinesterase) breaks down H2O into one H and an OH.
Then uses OH to replace the OR group in the ester
Do VAA diffuse out of the body faster if one is cold or warm?
Warm
Does sugar dissolve better in warm water or cold?
warm
If the body is cold during surgery, does that increase or decrease MAC?
Decrease because the body "holds" on to the VAA more so than if it is warm.
