Study Notes
- Acepromazine can cause hypotension when used as a pre-anesthetic.
- Alcohol can reduce the duration of effect of povidone-iodine when used as a surgical scrub.
- Prolene is a non-absorbable suture material.
- Vicryl is an absorbable suture.
- Direct monitoring involves taking a blood pressure reading by inserting a catheter into an artery.
- Autoclave sterilization requires a minimum standard of 250°F at 15 pounds of pressure for 13 minutes.
- Gastropexy prevents gastric torsion and can be performed on an emergency or prophylactic basis.
- Feline orchiectomy involves gently plucking scrotal hairs with the thumb and forefingers prior to the procedure.
- Ovariohysterectomy sterilizes the female and greatly reduces the chances of mammary cancer if performed prior to the first estrus cycle.
- Cystotomy removes calculi, and the entire lower urinary tract must be flushed prior to closure.
- Onychectomy involves excising the distal phalanx under general anesthesia, with bandages placed for 24 hours post-operatively.
- Antimpamazole is the ideal treatment for severe bradycardia caused by dexmedetomidine.
- The epiglottis is a triangular flap of tissue that covers the opening of the glottis.
- A murmur is associated with turbulent blood flow in the heart.
- Anxiety, restlessness, and hallucinations associated with the administration of opioid drugs is called dysphoria.
- Lidocaine is used to desensitize the larynx for endotracheal tube placement.
- A #40 blade is used to clip for sterile procedures, clip against the grain.
- Normal blood pressure parameters: Systolic 100-160 mmHg, Diastolic 50-70 mmHg, Mean 60-90 mmHg.
- Normal parameters for ETCO2 are 35-55 mmHg.
- Lavage fluid decreases bacterial numbers by dilution and removal by suction and is commonly used to keep tissues moist.
- In the event of patient stops breathing and heart rate decreases, immediately turn off the vaporizer, flush the circuit with oxygen, and begin manual ventilation.
- The 5 lymph nodes are: prescapular, submandibular, inguinal, auxiallary, popliteal.
- Dissociative anesthetics cause tachycardia, prolonged/rough recovery, and hypertension.
- The best way to administer a fluid bolus is to quickly give the full dose and then check the patient for response to the treatment.
- Chlorhexidine is not most commonly used to prepare surgical sites around the eyes because Povodine Iodine can cause corneal ulcerations, Chx causes ulcers.
- Thoracotomy is not a laparotomy.
