🗑
|
||||
| What is epidural morphine's time of peak blood concentration? | 10-15 min
🗑
|
||||
| True or False: The systemic absorption of epidural opioids produces blood levels similar to those after IM injections. | True
🗑
|
||||
| What is one way to decrease systemic absorption of epidural opioids? | add epinephrine to the solution (constricts the vasculature)
🗑
|
||||
| What is one way to enhance the analgesia of subarachnoid opioids? | add epinephrine to the solution
🗑
|
||||
| Describe the affect of epinephrine to both epidural and subarachnoid opioids. | epidural=decreases systemic absorption; subarachnoid=enhances analgesia

||||
| What is the duration of epidural morphine? | 4-24 hrs
🗑
|
||||
| What is a spinal dose of morphine? | 0.25-1mg
🗑
|
||||
| Which opioid is most likely to move cephalad? | morphine (least lipid soluble)
🗑
|
||||
| What factors can accelerate cephalad mvmt of opioids? | coughing, straining (NOT body position)
🗑
|
||||
| What are the 4 classic side effects of neuraxial opioids? | 1)pruritis, 2)N/V, 3)urinary retention, 4)ventilator depression

🗑
|
||||
| What is the cause of neuraxial opioid-induced pruritis? | opioids in CSF moving up to interact w/ OR in the trigeminal nucleus
🗑
|
||||
| What patients are most at risk for neuraxial opioid-induced pruritis? | obstetric (d/t estrogen effect on OR)
🗑
|
||||
| How quickly does neuraxial opioid-induced pruritis occur? | within a few hrs (may occur prior to analgesia onset)
🗑
|
||||
| What are 2 treatments for pruritis? | Narcan 0.25mcg/kg/hr (most effective) or antihistamines (which cause sedation)
🗑
|
||||
| What side effect is most common among young males? | urinary retention
🗑
|
||||
| True or False: Urinary retention is more common with neuraxial opioids than IV or IM. | true
🗑
|
||||
| True or False: Urinary retention is worse with large doses and increased systemic absorption. | False (not related to dose size or systemic absorption)
🗑
|
||||
| What causes neuraxial opioid-induced urinary retention? | interaction of opioid with OR of the sacral spinal cord (inhibition of sacral parasympathetic outflow causing detrusor muscle relaxation and increased bladder capacity)
🗑
|
||||

🗑
|
||||
