Signs of cholinergic poisoning
|
Salivation
Lactrimation Urination Defication Gastrointestinal cramping Emesis (vomiting) OR Ations: Salivation, Defication, Urination, Fasciculations Heas: Diarrhea, Bronchorrhea, Rhinorrhea, Bradycardia |
|
Muscarinic poisoning can occur from?
|
Organophosphates
Insecticides Nerve Gas (Serin) |
|
Muscarinic poisoning would do what to your eyes?
|
Constrict
Dilation = alpha1 |
|
Action of organocphosphates:
|
inhibit acetylcholinesterase (get excess AcH, which affects, M, N and CNS receptors)
|
|
What symptoms do you have in Nicotinic poisonings that you wouldn't in muscarinic
|
Fasciculations
Paralysis Tachycardia mydriasis (pupil dilation) |
|
What odors are associated with organophosphate and cyanide poisoning?
|
Garlic odor
Bitter almonds |
|
Antidote for organophosphates is?
|
Pralidoxamine: reduces AcH-Esterase phophorylation. This is critical to do quickly bc bond becomes covalent instead of ionic after a certain time
Atropine: Anticholinergic, blocks M receptors (increases heart rate, dries secretions and decrease bronchoconstriction) |
|
Effect of antihistamine poisoning
|
Similar to that of Anti-cholinergics:
dry mouth urinary retention constipation tachycardia dilated pupils hyperpyrexia (fever) (Can't see, can't spit, can't see, can't shit OR Hot, Dry, Tacky, Wacky) |
|
Antidote for anticholinergics is:
|
Physostigmine, blocks acetylcholinesterase so more competition for receptors. Contraindicated with wide QRS
|
|
Antidote for anticholinergics is contraindicated when
|
Wide QRS
Physostigmine |
|
What receptors does meth work on? Presentation?
|
B1 and Alpha one
Presentation: Increased HR (B1) Increased BP (alpha 1) Hyperthermia Apetite loss Pupil dilation |
|
Difference between sympathamemetics and anticholinergics
|
Anti: Can't sweat, dry mouth
Symp: Hypertension |
|
Treatment for meth
|
Benzos
|
|
Beta blockers
|
NE can't bind to B1 or B2
Lowers HR and BP and Glucose. Antidote is Glucagon (increase intracellular cAMP) |
