2009 Anaesthesia • Intravenous induction • Short acting opiate - e.g. fentanyl • ‘anaesthetic’ - e.g. propofol • Set up of anaesthetic maintenance - e.g. sevoflurane vapour in oxygen and air • Specific muscle paralysis may be needed • Definitive analgesia • Anti-emetic
Maintenance Concepts of partial pressure and MAC • Isoflurane (ISO) – MAC = 1.1 • Desflurane (DES) – MAC = 6 • The most insoluble – so the fastest to equilibrate – but a respiratory irritant, so unsuitable for gaseous induction. • Sevoflurane (SEVO) – MAC = 2.2 • Used for gaseous induction. • Nitrous Oxide – a gas. MAC = 105 • Propofol and Remifentanil
Neuromuscular blockers • Depolarising • Suxamethonium • Non-depolarising • Atracurium • Vecuronium • Rocuronium
Reversal of Paralysis • Neostigmine • Blocks cholinesterase • Stimulates nicotinic and muscarinic • Given with an anticholinergic • Sugammadex
Uppers • Anticholinergics • Atropine • Glycopyrulate • Symatheto-mimetics • agonists • Phenylepherine • Metaraminol • Ephidrine • A mixed and adreno agonist
Downers More anaesthetic or opiate Short acting -blockers (labetalol, esmolol) GTN Clonidine - 2 agonist clonidine
Opiates Morphine Fentanyl Alfentanil Remifentanil
Antiemetics • Cyclizine – an anti-histamine (SE – tachycardia and other anti-cholinergic effects) • Granisetron and ondansatron – 5-HT3 receptor antagonists (SE – constipation) • Prochlorperazine (stematil) – a dopamine and mACh receptor antagonist (SE – extrapyramidal) • Dexamethasone – a glucocorticoid (SE – deranged glucose control)
