What are the best amnestic agents and good anxiolytics?
Midazolam and Lorazepam
What increases lipid solubility and thus decreases time to onset of action? via the GABA a receptor
Midazolam
What are some SE w/Midazolam?
seizures, hypotension, apnea
What is the shortest acting Opioid?
Remfentanil
What is commonly used for neuroanesthetic?
Remifentanil
What works via Inhibition of stimulatory neuronal systems?
Ketamine
"dissociative" anesthetic?
Ketamine
kids, nightmares, increases ICP, HR, BP saliva, and tonic-clonic episodes?
Ketamine
What is an Imidazole derivative?
Etomidate
What is an IV anesthetic that would be good for pts. w/ CV probs?
Etomidate
What is a SE of Etomidate?
Myoclonus
Diisopropyl Phenol?
Propofol
What is the MOA of Propofol?
GABA-a and Glycine
Burns, fast, euphoria, and decreases ICP and BP?
Propofol
Milk of Amnesia?
Fospropofol---prodrug w/faster onset
beta 3 subunit of GABAa receptor?
Propofol and Etomidate inhibit it to stop pain stimulus
beta 2 subunit of GABAa receptor?
Propofol and Etomidate inhibit it to cause sedative effects
What kind of administration is given w/IV anesthetics?
Bolus
What is known as the truth serum?
Thiopental
What is the gold standard induction agent?
Thiopental
What is the MOA for Thiopental?
binds to the GABA a receptor, thus increases Cl ion flux into cells and stimulates inhibitory neuronal systems
What is used to protect the brain against hypoxia/ischemia injury?
Thiopental
What is used for hiccups?
Thiopental
What are the best amnetic agents?
Benzos
What binds to the GABAa receptor and their effects are concentration dependent?
Benzos
What IV anesthetic has a pka=6.2 and w/injection to plasma will increase the solubility, and thus decreases time to onset of action?
Midazolam
What is the MOA of Opioids?
bind to mu receptor
What are some SE seen w/Opioids?
pruritis, rigid chest wall, pts forget to breathe
What Opioid's termination of action depends on ELIMINATION?
Remifentanil
What is commonly used for neuroanesthetics?
Remifentanil
What is the MOA of Ketamines?
via INHIBITION Of stimulatory neuronal systems
Give an example of an "dissociative" anesthetic. (their cogntive fxn is separate from their stimulatory system)
ketamines
What class of drug is Ketamine?
Non-competitive NMDA antagonists
What are some SE seen w/Ketamines?
hallucinations, crazy dreams, increased ICP, HR, BP, and myocardial depressent, bronchodilation, tracheobronchial secretions incr., nystagmus, tonic clonic
What is the MOA of Etomidates?
activates GABAa receptor
What IV anesthetic is used for pts. w/CV risks?
Etomidates
What is a bad SE of Etomidates?
Myoclonus
What is the MOA of Propofol?
2 sites: GABA-A and glycine
What IV anesthetic burn on injxn, extremely fast acting, and gives a sense of euphoria?
Propofol
What is Milk of Amnesia?
Fospropofol
What IV anesthetic has the highest rate of elimination?
Remifentanil
Anesthetic induced sedation is mediated by _________________________.
Tuberomammilary nucleus of the thalamus
Anesthetic induced amnesia is mediated by ________________________.
higher brain strx (hippocampus)
What does the Unitary Hypothesis say?
Suggest single site w/a common mechanism. Compounds are not big, they just have a lot of Fs.
What affects the MOA of IV anesthetics?
the RECEPTOR affects ( not the solubility)
IV and volatile agents activate _________________receptor.
GABA a receptors
____________receptor is activated by volatile agents.
Glycine
What are background channels?
Tandem pore K channels
What is the working hypothesis?
Anesthetics excite the inhibitory postsynaptic channel activity (GABAa and Glycine)
Propofol and Etomidate inhibit painful stimuli by interacting with __________________.
beta 3 subunit of GABAa receptor
Propofol and Etomidate mediate sedative effects by interacting with__________________.
beta2 subunit of GABAa receptor
What is releasead by Thiopental?
Histamine
T or F: Thiopental is an Antanalgesia?
TRUE
What is a highly selective Alpha 2 Adrenergic Agonists?
Dexemedetomidine
What are 3 sites of action for Dexemedetomidine?
1. Locus Ceruleus 2. Spinal Cord 3. Autonomic Nerves
Dexemedetomidine activation on Locus Ceruleus produces what?
sedation, relief of anxiety, and a decrease in sympathetic discharge
Dexemedetomidine activation of SC has what effect?
analgesic effect, w/decreased HR and BP
