IV induction agents

QuestionAnswer
Reticular Activating System in brain stem responsible for maintenance of wakefulness
Barb pharmacokinetics A: genl IV indux D: highly lipid soluble, highly protein-bound, quick recovery (M>T)d/t redistr to muscles B: liver (M>T) E: renal
Barb geriatric considerations greater CNS effects. decr dose 30-40% d/t incr Vd (protein bidning)
Barbs in the brain constrict cerebral vasc--> decr blood flow and ICP incr CPP (relative to decr ABP) decr cerebral O2 consumption protects against transient focal ischemia
Thiopental induction dose 3-6 mg/kg IV
Methohexital induction dose 1-2 mg/kg IV
Grand mal seizure control benzos & barbs x Methohexital
Which benzo is water soluble? midazolam (at pH <6)
propylene glycol in which agents diazepam lorazepam
half lives of benzos midazolam quickest hepatic clearance r/t other benzos
therapeutic effect of benzos r/t receptor occupancy 20% anxiolytic 30-50% sedation 60+% unconsciousness
benzo potency/affinity for receptors lorazepam>midazolam>diazepam
sedation dose for midazolam 0.5-2.5 mg IV steep dose response curve
CNS effects of benzos anterograde amnesia, hypnosis, sedation, & anxiolysis prevents/controls grand mal seizures (esp diaz) muscle relaxation at spinal cord (not NMJ) decr cerebral blood flow/ICP
CV effects of benzos HR may incr d/t vagolytic effect or remain wo change. mild systemic vasodilation and decr CO (pronounced changes if rapid push or with opioid)
benzo distribution large Vd, quickly crosses BBB small, lipid-soluble, weak base, highly protein-bound relatively slow use as indux agents
MOA benzos high affinity for GABA receptors in CNS esp cerebral cortex Cl- ion in --> hyperpolarization (minimal circulatory effects)
diazepam seizure dosing 0.1mg/kg to abolish seizures r/t locals, ETOH, and status epilepticus
benzo +valproate psychotic episode
diazepam + heparin heparin displaces diazepam on proteins --> increased free [ ]
midazolam + erythromycin midazolam metabolism inhibitied -->longer duration
opioids + benzos synergistic~ decr BP, decr BP apnea risk
benzos + pregnancy no! B HCG before benzos to any female of child-bearing age. risk cleft lip/palate, fetal depression
MOA flumazenil competitive antagonist to benzos. onset 2 mins, peak 10 mins 45-90 mins duration (need to redose as benzo outlasts). dose 0.3 mg IV Q 30-60 seconds MAX 5 mg
Flumazenil cautions contraindicated TCA overdose, benzos for seizure, control benzos for incr ICP. caution if long-term benzo use d/t withdrawal
poorly managed HTN with barb induction wide swings in BP
what agents are highly protein bound barbs. etomidate. benzos. opioids (fent, sufent, alftent) low albumin--> incr Vd
ketamine causes what type of anesthesia? dissociative anesthesia- appears conscious but unable to process or respond to sensorium. thalamus is dissociated from limbic cortex which is resp for awareness of sensation
safest induction choice for cardiac pt etomidate cause minimal CV effects (sl decr in PVR/BP). high dose opioids
Ketamine biotransformation short half-life (hepatic extraction ratio =0.9). biotransformed to sevl metabolites. elimination T1/2= 2 hr
ketamine distribution very high lipid solubility and low protein binding (r/t thiopental). quick cerbral uptake and redistribution
Ketamine CV effects incr BP, HR and CO. d/t central stim of SNS and inhibition of norepi reuptake (adrenergic receptors)
Ketamine Resp effects potent bronchodilator. upper airway reflexes remain intact.
Propofol pharmacodynamic for turnover quick onset and awakening d/t high lipid solubility. lesser hangover and antiemetic=quicker recover
Popofol and LMA depresses upper airway reflexes wo paralysis.
propofol MOA increases activity at GABA synapses used for sedation, induction and maintenance
propofol biotransformation hepatic metabolism. plasma clearance exceeds hepatic blood flow. minimal cumulative effects even if liver or renal dysfunx.
propofol and CNS decr CPP, CBP, and ICP. anticuonvulsant properties. no analgesia
propofol and CV effects decr BP (more so than thiopental). exag in hypovolemia, elderly, cardiac compr...esp if large, rapid admin. HR genl unchanged. can have bradycardia 2/2 heart block.
propofol and resp depress ventilation with inhib to hypoxia and hypercarbia response. Bronchodilation in COPD pt! some histamine release. upper airway depression.
propofol induction dose 1-2.5 mg/kg IV expect hypoTN
