Valerius Cordus
Described nitrous oxide and produced it
Joseph Priestly
Purified nitrous oxide and stated that respiration happens at a tissue level
Humphrey Davy
Perfected chloroform
Jean Baptiste Dumas
Delivered the first paid ether anesthetic
Crawford Long
Dentist that used nitrous oxide
Horace Wells
Invented first vaporizer
William Morton
Recognized hypoxia and began to mix 20% oxygen with nitrous oxide
Edmund Andrews
Established that pain comes from tissue damage or near tissue damage and delivered chloroform during child birth
Sir James Simpson
Founder of AANA
Agatha Hodgins
Mother of anesthesia
Alice Magaw
Developed 4 stages of anesthesia and eye signs for each; invented cuffed ET tube
Dr. Arthur Guedal
2 criteria that a drug must meet to be eliminated from the central compartment
Must be a free drug (unbound)
Must be ionized
6 components of the central compartment
brain, liver, kidney, lungs, heart, endocrine
4 components of the peripheral compartment
muscles, skin, fat, bone
six narcotics that are absorbed by the lungs as if in a resevoir
fentanyl
sufentanil
Alfentanil
Meperidine
Lidocaine
Propanolol
How many half lives does it take to reach the therapeutic window of a drug
4 to 5
Amount of time it takes to remove one half of a drug from the plasma
Half-time
The amount of drug that a compartment will hold
Partition coefficient
4 factors that affect partition coefficient
Lipid solubility
Tissue mass
Protein binding
pH
pH of all narcotics and local anesthetics
basic
Albumin bound drugs are generally this pH
Acidic
AAG bound drugs are generally this pH
Basic
Acidic drugs tend to bind with what elements and accumulate where?
Na, K, Ca
Plasma
Basic drugs tend to bind with what elements and accumulate where?
Cl and sulfate
tissues
Metabolism involving the exposing of a water soluble group
phase 1
Metabolism involving the addition of a water soluble group
phase 2
Kind of metabolism in which a constant fraction of a drug is eliminated
first order
Kind of metabolism in which a constant amount of a drug is eliminated
zero order
Brain wave activity during induction
increase in Beta decrease in Alpha
Brain wave activity of general anesthesia
Increase in theta and delta waves
Poor barbituate induction agent for asthmatic, hypovolemic, or tachy intolerant patients
Pentothal
Induction agents not to be used with pts with porphyria
barbituates and etomidate
Barbituate that does not cause histamine release
Methohexital
Thiopental half life
11 hours
Methohexital half life
4 hours
Analgesic effect of barbituates
none or 'anti'
make pt more sensitive to pain
Why are barbituates used in cerebral ischemia
They decrease cerebral oxygen demand
2 induction drugs that can decrease reperfusion injury by eliminating free radicals
propofol and pentothol
Good drugs for use in single lung ventilation because they do not inhibit pulmonary vasoconstriction
barbituates
How does pentothol affect baroreceptors
leaves them intact (therefore reflex tachycardia)
How do you combat tachycardia when giving barbituates
predose with narcotic
Induction drug of choice for asthmatics
Propofol
3 examples of catecholamine depleted patients
shock
cocaine abuser
inhaled anesthetics
Pre-treat ketamine induction with
Robinol

(not atropine)
Tells us what the loading dose needs to be
volume of distribution
What are the criteria for a free drug
not protein bound
non-ionized
lipid soluble
Only takes into account a drugs efficacy and potency
steady state
The amount of time it takes to clear one half of the drug from the body
half life
The amount of time it takes to clear one half of the drug from the plasma
half time
The amount of drug totally cleared from the plasma per unit of time
clearance
The half-time of equilibration between the drug concentration in the plasma and the drug effect that can be measured
effect site equilibration
Time necessary to decrease the plasma concentration by half after the IV infusion has been stopped
context sensitive half life
4 factors affecting the partition coefficient
Tissue mass
Protein binding
pH
Lipid solubility
What effects does low protein state have on acute administration of a highly protein bound drug
faster onset
shorter duration
Kind of metabolism that is affected by blood flow rates
first order

transferases
They study of a drug as it relates to a species wide DNA sequence
Genomics
Study of genes specific to the drug's pharmacology
genetics
3 factors that affect renal clearance

Solubility state that increases renal reabsorption
lipid soluble
measurement of accumulation
context sensitive half life
3 factors that change context sensitive half life
metabolism
lipid solubility
clearance
