Question
Answer
What is an Opiate   derived from opium  
🗑
What is an opioid   natural or synthetic substance that binds to opioid receptors and possess agonist activity  
🗑
Why are opioids used in anesthesia   to decrease the SNS response to laryngoscopy, and for analgesia  
🗑
What are the 3 types of opioids   natral, semi-synthetic and synthetic  
🗑
Natural opioids   morphine and papaverine  
🗑
Semi-synthetic   result from simple modifications to the morphine molecule, heroin, hydromorphone, thebaine  
🗑
Synthetic   Demerol, methadone, su-al-remi-fentanyl  
🗑
Opioid mech. Of action   opioid receptor agonists  
🗑
Where are opioid receptors found   the brain (activation of post-synaptic opiod receptors in midbrain and medulla), dorsal horn of spinal cord(activation of presynaptic opiods receptors), and peripheral tissues (activation of receptors in afferent neurons)  
🗑
What are endogenous opioid receptor agonists   endorphins, enkephalins, dynorphins  
🗑
Opioid receptors   mu 1& mu 2, delta, kappa  
🗑
Mu-1 location and effects   primarily brain(supraspinal), euphoria, miosis, urinary retention  
🗑
Mu-2 location and effects   primarily spinal, resp. depression, bradycardia, physical dependence, constipation, itching  
🗑
Kappa location and effects   spinal, supraspinal, peripheral; sedation, dysphoria  
🗑
Delta location and effects   primarily spinal, resp depression, physical dependence  
🗑
Opioid effects   dose dep. resp depression, do not reliably produce unconsciousness, stimulation of chemo-trigger zone (N/V), biliary smooth muscle spasm  
🗑
Morphine (MSO4) dose, side effects, metabolism   dose intra-op: 0.1-1mg/kg IV, post-op: 0.05- 0.2mg/kg IM or 0.03-0.15 mg/kg IV (2-10mg); Major histamine release(avoid in severe asthma), broken down in liver into Morphine 3-glucuronide and Morphine 6-glucuronide.  
🗑
What is Morphine 6-glucuronide   active metabolite of morphine (more potent and stays longer in renal pt)  
🗑
What is the E ½ time of morphine   1.5-3 hrs (for 50% of morphine to clear the plasma)  
🗑
Hydromorphone dose, side effects, metabolism   10x more potent than morphine; 0.2-1mg IV, (less N/V, itching, dysphoria), broken down to non-active metabolite Hydromorphone 3-glucuronide(may cause excitation)  
🗑
Meperidine dose, side effects, metabolism   (Demerol) 1/10th as potent as morphine; 0.5-1mg/kg IM, 0.2-0.5 mg/kg IV (14-35 mg); structurally similar to atropine: increases HR, mydriasis, dry mouth; broken down into normeperidine, excreted by kidneys, and neurotoxic in high [] (seizures, myoclonus)  
🗑
Meperidine is used post-op for this   to decrease shivering  
🗑
What is the E ½ time of meperidine   3-5 hrs (for 50% of meperidine to clear the plasma)  
🗑
Do not given Meperidine to pts on MAOIs (nardil)   causes severe excitatory state, incr. HR, B/P, temp, seizures  
🗑
Fentanyl dose, side effects   100x more potent than morphine, dose intra-op: 2-10mcg/kg, CT surg:30-50mcg/kg, Post-op: 0.5-1.5mcg/kg; minimal CV side effects, decrease HR, chest wall rigidity (tx with NMB)  
🗑
Fentanyl is always in what concentration   50mcg/ml  
🗑
What is the E ½ time of fentanyl   3-6 hrs (for 50% of fentanyl to clear the plasma)  
🗑
Sufentanyl dosage   7-10x more potent than fentanyl , dose intra-op: 0.2-0.8 mcg/kg, CT surg: 10-30mcg/kg  
🗑
What is the E ½ time of sufentanyl   2-4 hrs (for 50% of sufentanyl to clear the plasma)  
🗑
Alfentanyl dose, onset   1/10th as potent as fentanyl, intra-op dose:10-100mcg/kg, faster onset shorter duration than fent or sufent.  
🗑
What is the E ½ time of Alfentanyl   1.5 hrs (for 50% of Alfentanyl to clear the plasma)  
🗑
Remifentanyl dose, onset   same potency as fent., extremely rapid onset and recovery, dose: 1mcg/kg IV, dose infusion: 0.05-2mcg/kg/min  
🗑
What is the E ½ time of Remifentanyl   15-30min (for 50% of Remifentanyl to clear the plasma), no analgesia once infusion is stopped.  
🗑
Naloxone dose, side effects, mech. of action, onset, duration   incremental dose: 0.02mg-0.04mg IV, (Mix narcan 0.4mg/ml in 9ml saline=0.04mg/ml) give in 1cc increments, in this dose it reverses resp. dep.but maintains analgesia; opioid receptor competitive antagonist; Onset 1-2min, duration 30-45min  
🗑
Abrupt reversal with large doses of narcan can cause   increased HR, B/P, N/V, pulm, edema  
🗑
Naltrexone   (trexan), longer acting (upto 24 hrs), given PO  
🗑
What are 2 common opioid agonists/antagonists   Butorphanol (stadol), Nalbuphine (nubain)  
🗑
Butorphanol dose, side effects   (Stadol) dose : 0.5-3mg IV, causes resp. dep. and analgesia similar to 10mg MSO4, more sedation than nalbuphine(nubaine)  
🗑
Butorphanol (Stadol) can be used to stop   post-op shivering  
🗑
Nalbuphine dose, side effects   (nubain) partial agonist at kappa and mu, dose: 5-10mg IV, reverses resp. depression caused by narcotics,but maintains analgesia; antagonizes itching from epidural and intrathecal MSO4  
🗑
Nalbupine is contraindicated in   pts addicted to opioids (do not give to them)  
🗑
Flumazenil dose, side effects   (Romazicon), benzo antagonist, dosed incrementally: 0.2mg IV up to 1mg, reverses effects of benzos, but effect does not last as long as benzo effect  
🗑
