Total questions: 10
Worksheet time: 10mins
Propofol
Is highly water soluble
Causes severe complications following intra-arterial injection
Has a decreased context-sensitive half-time with prolonged infusion
Can elicit excitatory central nervous system effects on induction
Isoflurane
Is a respiratory depressant
Is metabolized to organic fluorides ions
Is a structural isomer of halothane
Has been implicated in the causation of seizures
Etomidate
Not causes pituitary suppression
Increased intraocular pressure
Is not excreted in urine
Is formulated in propylene glycol.
Oil/gas solubility of a volatile agent is related to:
Speed of onset
Potency
Arrhythmogenicity
Boiling point
An inhaled anesthetic has blood/gas partition coefficient of 14.8.
Recovery time primarily depends on
Oil/gas solubility of the agent
Cardiac output
Duration of administration
MAC of the drug
The drug that causes dose-dependent EEG evidence of both central nervous system excitation and depression is
Thiopental
Lidocaine
Isoflurane
Midazolam
206 If etomidate were accidentall y injected into a left -sided radial arterial line, the
most appropriate step to take would be
Left stellate ganglion block
Administer intra-arterial clonidine
Slowly inject dilute (0.1 mEq/ L ) [HCO3-]
Observe
With which of the following inhalational agents is cardiac output moderately increased?
N2O
Sevoflurane
Desflurane
Isoflurane
Cardiogenic shock has the greatest impact on the rate of increase in Fa / Fi for which of the following volatile anesthetics ?
Isoflurane
Desflurane
Sevoflurane
N2O
The ideal intravenous anesthetic agent would have the following properties EXCEPT:
High lipid solubility
Lipid-soluble formulation
short half-life
Analgesic at sub-anesthetic concentrations
