TYPES OF BENZODIAZEPINES
versed, ativan, valium
GABA
gamma aminobutyric acid
major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain
is the 2nd most common neurotransmitter in the brain
glutamate is the most commone (excitatory)
TYPES OF BARBITUATES
thiopental, methohexital
BARBITUATES MOA
decrease RAS
enhance GABA
will inhibit the transmission of excitatory neurotransmitters such as acetylcholine
BENZODIAZEPINES MOA
enhances GABA
used for sedation, amnesia, anxiolysis, anticonvulsants
longer onset and action than thiopental due to protein binding
VALIUM (DIAZEPAM)
BENZO
pre-op sedation dose
0.2-0.5 mg/kg PO
0.02- 0.04 mg/kg IV
painful when given IV OR IM b/c is insoluble in water so mixed with propylene glycol
***active metabolites
1/2 life 21-37 hours
VERSED (MIDAZOLAM)
BENZO
DOSE 0.01-0.1 mg/kg IV for sedation
0.1 - 0.2 mg/kg IV for induction
1/2 life 1-4 hours
causes anterograde amnesia
less cardiac depression than valium
DIPRAVAN (PROPOFOL)
DOSE INDUCTION 1.5-2.5 mg/kg IV
SEDATION 25-100 mcg/kg/min
MAIN 100-300 mcg/kg/min
**allergy to soy or eggs don't use
antiemetic, antipuretic
GABA
use w/in 6 hours
THIOPENTAL
BARBITUATE
DOSE 3-5 mg/kg for induction
sedation, hypnosis, anticonvulsant
rapid onset short duration
req recon for resulting 2.5% sol
25mg/ml
AMIDATE (ETOMIDATE)
structurally unrelated to other compounds
DOSE 0.2-0.3 mg/kg for induction
CNS depression-> enhance GABA
may activate seizure foci
temp cause adrenal suppression
increased incidence of myoclonus
****minimal CV effects
PRECEDEX (DEXMEDETOMIDINE)
LOADING DOSE 0.5-1 mcg/kg over 10-20min
main 0.2-0.7 mcg/kg/hr
very selective alpha 2 agonist presynaptically
1/2 life 1.5 hours
5 min onset and 15 min peak
decrease SNS output
no effect on resp system
BREVITAL (METHOHEXITAL)
BARBITUATE
shorter duration than thiopental
activates seizure foci
Recon IV sol 1%
Rectal sol 10%
DOSE INDUCTION 1-1.5 mg/kg
RECTAL 25mg/kg
KETAMINE
DOSE INDUCTION 1-2 mg/kg
3-5 mg/kg IM pre op
does not decrease CNS
dissociation from thalamus and limbic system
inhibit NMDA receptor
***patient appears conscious but cannot process sensory input
KETAMINE WHAT ELSE DOES IT DO
-causes roving eye movements
skeletal muscle movement, hallucinations
excellent analgesia
-no resp depression, bronchial smooth muscle relaxation
****increase salivation, HR, CO BP AND ICP
EMERGENCE DELERIUM
does not put patient to sleep
