Study Notes

Induction Agents

Induction agents are used to achieve rapid anesthesia.
Options include:
- Etomidate: Administer at 0.3 mg/kg intravenously, notable for cardiovascular stability.
- Ketamine: Administer at 1-2 mg/kg intravenously, provides analgesia and dissociative anesthesia.
- Propofol: Administer at 1-2 mg/kg intravenously, known for quick onset and recovery.

Neuromuscular Blocking Agents

Neuromuscular blocking agents facilitate muscle relaxation during procedures.
Options include:
- Succinylcholine: Administer at 1-2 mg/kg intravenously, acts rapidly but with a short duration.
- Rocuronium: Administer at 0.6-1.5 mg/kg intravenously, with a recommended minimum dose of ≥1 mg/kg of ideal body weight (IBW). Preferred for longer procedures due to its intermediate duration of action.

Description

This quiz focuses on the administration of induction agents followed by neuromuscular blocking agents in anesthesia practice. You will be presented with choices for induction agents like Etomidate, Ketamine, and Propofol, as well as neuromuscular blockers such as Succinylcholine and Rocuronium. Test your knowledge on the correct dosages and application in clinical settings.
