Signs of local anesthetic toxicity |
Perioral numbness, metallic taste, tinnitus, seizure (at very high doses) |
|
Tx of local anesthetic toxicity |
Lidocaine: short acting, support for 15 minutes until it passes Bupivicaine: much longer reaction - tx is FAT EMULSION |
|
5 reasons to add EPI to local anesthetic |
1. prolongs action of local anesthetic 2. blunts systemic uptake and limits systemic toxicity 3. decreases bleeding at injection site 4. marker of intravascular injection (increased HR) 5. Improves quality of spinal blockade via alpha receptors |
|
Dexmetomidine |
alpha2 agonist (reduces adrenergic activity) -sedative and analgesic -strong bradycardia, hypotension and hypothermia seen -only given in slow infusion -very long halflife -no respiratory depression |
|
Differences between peds and adult airway |
Floppy epiglottis (use straight blade) Larynx higher in neck (laryngoscopy looks relatively anterior) Cricoid cartilage is narrowest point of airway (unlike adult in which vocal folds are smallest) |
|
NPO deficit |
Hours NPO x hourly maintenance rate -give half in an hour, then a quarter the next hour and a quarter the next hour, in addition to maintenance! |
|
How long do you keep infants after surgery? |
Term -44 week post-conceptual: need 24 hour stay Preterm: need 24 hour stay up to 55 weeks PCA |
|
Important history for a child |
Medical history Medications Allergies Recent URI? |
|

|
