what must drugs be in order to be an anesthetic?
|
- lipid soluble
|
|
drugs w/ low blood solubility have what type of induction?
|
low blood solubility --> RAPID induction and rapid recovery time
|
|
drugs w/ high lipid solubility ...
|
have an INCREASED potency
|
|
what is potency equal to?
|
1/MAC ; MAC --> minimal alveolar concentration when 50% of population is anesthetized
|
|
"ANE"
|
-inhaled anesthetics
- hrt,resp dprssn - n,emesis - increased cerebral blood flow |
|
iv anesthetic - thiopental; uses?
|
high potency, lipid slblity, rapid entry into brain
- anesthesia for short procedures |
|
iv anesthetic - benzos (midazolam)
|
- most commonly used for endoscopy
- usd w/ gaseous anesthetics y narcotics |
|
severe side fx of midazolam as anesthetic?
|
postoperative respiratory depression, treat with flumazenil
|
|
Ketamine (Arylcyclohexylamine)
|
-pcp analogue ; block nmda receptors
|
|
local anesthetics - esters / amides
|
esters - procaine,cocaine,tetracaine
amide- ildocaine,mepIvacaine,bupIvIcaine |
|
Amides have 2 I's ...
|
in their name
|
|
moa of local anesthetics
|
block na+ channels via binding of rcptrs on inner portion of channel
- most fctive in rapidly firing neurons b/c binds to Na+ channels |
|
what is the order of sensation loss with the use of anesthetics?
|
pain first > temp> touch> pressure last
|
|
clinical uses of local anesthetics?
|
-minor surgery
- spinal anesthesia - if allergic to esters (procaine,etc.) give amides (iiodocaine, etc.) |
|
side fx of local anesthetics?
|
- cns excitation
- cv toxicity (bipuvicaine) - htn/hypotnsn - arrythmias (cocaine) |
|
neuromuscular blocking drugs
|
depolarizing and non-depolarizing
- used for muscle paralysis in surgery - nicotinic recptr selectivity |
|
how do we reverse the blockade?
|
phase 1 - (long depolarization) - no antidote
phase 2 - (rplrzd but blocked) - cholinesterase inhibitors r antidote (neostigmine) |
|
examples of depolarizing drugs? non-depolarizing?
|
succinylcholine ;
"-ium" + tubocurarine |
|
moa of non-depolarizing drugs? how do you reverse the blockade?
|
compete w/ Ach for receptors
; neostigmine, edrophonium, (cholinesterase inhibitors) |
|
what is used to treat, Malignant hyperthermia and Neuroleptic malignant syndrome?
|
dantrolene
- mlgnt hyprthermia csd by inhalation of anesthetics y succinylcholine - nms --> overdose of antipsychotics |
|
moa of dantrolene?
|
prevents release of Ca2+ from sarcoplasmic reticulum in skltl mscle
|
|
park's - cause?
|
- loss of dopaminergic neurons and excess cholinergic activity
|
|
Rx strategy for parks?
|
- agonize DA rcptrs
- increase DA - Prvnt DA breakdown - lower cholinergic excessive activity "BALSA" |
|
BALSA!! - parkinsons Rx
|
B-bromocriptine
A- amantadine L- levodopa (w/ carbidopa) S- Selegiline (y COMT inhibitors) A- Antimuscarinics |
|
moa of amantadine?
|
- increase dopamine release
- also used in influenza A y rubella - toxicity = ataxia |
|
moa of carbidopa?
|
dcrses peripheral conversion of levadopa to dopamine...thus increasing CNS levels of DA
|
|
moa of selegiline? entacapone/tolcapone?
|
prevents breakdown of dopamine ; MAOB inhibitor
- entacapone/tolcapone (COMT inhibitors) prvnts DA breakdown |
|
what drugs decrease cholinergic activity?
|
Benztropine --> Antimuscarinic, improves rigidity and tremor
|
|
what drugs do u use for essential or familial tremors?
|
b-blockers
|
|
moa of levadopa/carbidopa? toxicities?
|
- incrse DA in brain
ldopa can x bbb , carbidopa cannot tox-> arrythmias, long term (dyskinesias) |
|
what enzyme converts levadopa to dopamine?
|
dopa decarboxylase
|
|
moa and use of SUMATRIPTAN?
|
5HT1b/1d agonist --> causes vasoconstriction, dcrses trigem stimulation and vasoactive peptide release
uses--> migraines and cluster headaches |
|

|
- coronary vasospasm
--> contra'd in CAD or PRINZEMETAl's angina |
|
Memantine,donepezil...what disease is it used for?
|
