ATP production is reduced by ___% during hypoxia.
a. 25%
b. 45%
c. 75%

Glucose supply and washout of metabolites is interrupted, ATP dependent ion pump activity is reduced causing intracellular sodium and calcium increase and potassium levels decrease These describe:
a. Apoptosis
b. reperfusion
c. ischemia
d. anesthetic effects
c. ischemia
Neurons depolarize and release excitatory amino acids like glutamate causing further depolarization = increase metabolic demand. This describes:
a. apoptosis
b. cerebral edema
c. ischemia
d. anesthetic effects
c. ischemia
___ raises free fatty acid levels ie: arachidonic acid and free radicals.
a. cytoplasmic calcium
b. phospholipases

What is the most damaging free radical?
a. cytoplasmic calcium
b. phospholipase
c. peroxynitrite
d. lactate
peroxynitrite
______ triggers events that lead to ischemic damage - increased protease and phospholipase activity.
a. cytoplasmic calcium
b. phospholipase
c. peroxynitrite
d. lactate
a. cytoplasmic calcium
_____ activation leads to excess arachidonic acid production, which upon reoxygenation can form: Dicosanoids, thromboxane, prostaglandins, leukotrienes.
a. cytoplasmic calcium
b. phospholipase
c. peroxynitrite
d. lactate
b. phospholipase activation
Dicosanoids, thromboxane, prostaglandins, leukotrienes cause:
a. vasoconstriction
b. reduce blood flow
c. alter BBB and enhance free radical formation after reperfusion
d. all of the above
d. all of the above
What are some triggers of cell death?
Decreased ATP, Increased extracellular K, Increased intracellular Na, Ca, increased free radical levels, depolarization, and glutamate levels
Which is more severe necrosis or apoptosis?
Necrosis - mitochondria lose function
Focal ischemia has 3 regions, place in order:
*Normally perfused
*No blood flow
*Receives collateral flow and is partially ischemic
Region 1 - Receives no blood flow
Region 2 - Penumbra - receives collateral flow and is partially ischemic
Region 3 - Normally perfused
Which region of focal ischemia is the stage of ischemia that we try to rescue?
Region 2 - Penumbra
What is en example of global ischemia?
Stroke
What is the target temperature to preserve neurologic function after cardiac arrest?
32-34 degrees celcius
Myocardial depression, dysrhythmias, hypotension, decreased tissue perfusion,ischemia, thrombocytopenia, fibrinolysis, platelet dysfunction & increased bleeding are all complications of what therapy?
Deep hypothermia
Calcium channel blockers, hypertension, hypervolemia, and hemodilution are recommended treatments for:
a. vasoconstriction
b. vasospasm
b. vasospasm
What anesthetic agent can ceate an isoelectric EEG without death?
Isoflurane/forane
What anesthetic agents have been shown to be neuroprotective by blocking Na, K and Ca fluxes, scavenging free radicals, blocking seizures, improving regional blood flow and decresing ICP.
Barbiturates
Etomidate/Propofol: reduces cerebral metabolic rate in given to burst suppression doses but does not improve recover from ischemic or anoxic damage.
Etomidate
_____ enhance neuronal inhibition, reduce brain metabolism and cerebral blood flow.
Benzodiazepines
Use caution with what drug with patients with space occupying lesions.
Versed or benzodiazepines
Hypothermia, lidocaine, thiopental and sevo are shown to be ______ .
Neuroprotective
Seizure is the #1 sign for adult _____.
Tumor
Hypo/Hyperventilate a patient that you want to have a good seizure.
Hyperventilate - it causes K to leave the cells and Na and Ca to enter the cells
Enhanced excitability causes ____ release and excitotoxicity and exacerbates damage.
glutamate
High __ is responsible for large progressive depolarization.
a. Na
b. K
c. Ca
b. K
Intracellular ___ levels rise, precipitating the damage.
a. Na
b. K
c. Ca
c. Ca
Blood flow increases/decreases with epileptic damage.
increases
T/F: It is important to treat lactic acidosis, reduced arterial oxygenation, and increased carbon dioxide associated with epileptic damage.
True - maintain oxygenation, ventilation and blood pressure
What is the formula for calculating CPP?
CPP= MAP - CVP or ICP
Increased ICP or cerebral edema can lead to hypoperfusion how can it be treated?
Diuretics - Mannitol, hypertonic saline, lasix, hyperventilate
T/F: Intracranial hemorrhage may increase ICP and reduce CPP.
True
Hypotension/Hypertension should be avoided because it worsens outcome.
Hypotension
