DAANCE DRUGS STUDY GUIDE

DAANCE DRUGS STUDY GUIDE propofol (diprivan) - Produces both rapid anesthesia and recovery, has antiemetic, hypnotic agent and commonly used for outpatient surgery. Wakefulness, intracranial pressure, cerebral blood flow with anticonvulsive. Decreases blood pressure by vasodiliation, and sleep apena may be notice after induction. ketamine (ketalar) - Anesthesia for short procedures, gives a dysphoric effect, hallucinations, and amnesia. Is a profound analgesia thiopetothal sodium (pentothal) - known as sodium pentothal. Has rapid onset short acting, saturates in fat or muscle. The redistribution effects are prolonging w/ infusion methohexital ( brevital) - ultrashort acting barbituate, used for anesthesia, highly protein bound S/E tremors, vasodilation, decreased CO, tachycardia, apnea, histimine, hiccups, muscle twitching diazepam (valium) - Seditive w/ amnesia effects. may give excitement at administration propofol (diprivan) - Should be used within 6 hours after opened. Its highly lipid fat soluble, rapidly redistributed to muscle fat within a few minutes, metabolized in and outside the liver some which take place in the lung. propofol (diprivan) - Renal insufficiency, and even chronic renal failure. Increase in carbon dioxide, Hypercarbia in the blood. Induces bronchodilation, which reflexes the airway resulting in laryngospasms. It decreases wheezing in pts with asthma and COPD. allowing pharynegeal suctioning of secretions propofol (diprivan) - At the time of injection it can be painful as its administed this can irritate veins. Also has a potential for contamination and infection after the drug has been placed, This is due to a breakdown in the sterile technique
