|
Factors that will decrease the MAC (minimal alveolar concentration)include:
severe hypotension hypothermia aging all are correct |
all are correct
|
|

|
|
A property that is NOT desirable for inhalation anesthetic agents is:
-chemically stable and nonreactive with soda lime -requires high concentrations in the alveoli to produce anesthesia -low blood solubility for rapid inductions and recoveries -not irritating to mucus membranes, not nausea inducing |

|
A true statement concerning mask induction of anesthesia is:
-best reserved for high risk patients that are adequately sedated -can greatly increase waste gas in the work environment -an anesthetic with low solubility is advised -all are correct |
all are correct
|
|
|
Higher concentrations of Sevoflurane can result in rapid changes in anesthetic depth leading to hypotension and respiratory depression.
True False |

isoflurane sevoflurane methoxyflurane halothane |
methoxyflurane
|
|
|
The anesthetic agent that has been associated with some respiratory depression is:
isoflurane methoxyflurane halothane sevoflurane all of the above |

sevoflurane methoxyflurane halothane isoflurane |
halothane

When inducing anesthesia by mask induction using isoflurane, what is the maximum per centage of isoflurane that is recommended by the Angel notes?
3.0% 4.0% 5.0% 6.0% |
3.0%

|
In patients that are anesthetized with Sevoflurane, there is profound muscle relaxation seen at lighter planes of anesthesia.
True False |
False |
|
|
As a general rule, it is recommended that all anesthetized animals be intubated in order to maintain the airway.
True False |
True |
|
|
Based on the properties of the agent, the inhalation ansesthetic that is the best suited and considered ideal for mask induction is:
methoxyflurane sevoflurane isoflurane halothane |
sevoflurane
|
|
|
The inhalation anesthetic agent with the lowest MAC ( minimum alveolar concentration ) is:
methoxyflurane halothane isoflurane sevoflurane |
methoxyflurane
|
|
|
The anesthetic agents with the highest vapor pressure is:
methoxyflurane halothane isoflurane sevoflurane |
halothane
|
|
|
When inhalation anesthetic agents are compared, the one having the lowest solubility rating will be the one that:
-is the most potent -will allow for the fastest induction of anesthesia -will vaporize to the highest concentration in room air -can only be used in vaporizers that are inside the brathing circuit |
will allow for the fastest induction of anesthesia
