גרסה 5.6.24 – 1.0 שלום לכולם! במהלך הלמידה לבחינה ,סיכמתי לעצמי נקודות מתוך הספר.משתף פה בתקווה שזה יועיל. כמה דגשים: פרקים שלא קראתי וסיכמתי בצורה מלאה מסומנים כ PARTIAL - יש בספר סתירות.מלא ,המון.בין פרקים ,בתוך הפרקים ,ואפילו בתוך אותה שורה.לכן לצערי גם בתוך הסיכום עצמו יש סתירות ובטוח גם טעויות שלי. קופסאות כתומות = הבהרות ונקודות חשובות ,טקסט ירוק = משפט או ראשי תיבות לשינון (מופיע גם כרשימה בסוף המסמך) קיצורים באנגלית שעבדתי איתם: = w/ = with, a/w = associated with, d/t = due to, hx = history, tx = treatment, pt o patient, M&M = morbidity & mortality הוספתי בסוף המסמך רשימות שהכנתי במהלך הלמידה בדגש על קונטרהאינדיקציות ,משפטי except ונוסחאות. בהצלחה !!! בכל שאלה או בעיה עם הקובץ ,אשמח לדעת. בברכת ״גם זה יעבור״, רון אשל [email protected] Chapter 9 – consciousness PARTIAL Consciousness o Awareness = ONLY subjective experience o Consciousness - Connected (external environmental stimulus) vs. disconnected (internal endogenous – dream state) o Consciousness (experiencing a stimulus) vs. Responsiveness (i.e. conscious but paralyzed) Brainstem o Locus ceruleus (LC)→ NE, a/w cortical arousal only during wakefulness o Laterodorsal/pedunculopontine tegmentum (LDT/PPT) → ACh, a/w cortical arousal during LC: דג לוקוס נורא ערני wakefulness & REM Tegmentum: מומנטום כולינרגי o Pontine reticular formation (PRF) →GABA, a/w cortical arousal PRF: תביא שקית אראף,פיייי גבי o Ventral Tegmental Area (VTA) → Dopamine, a/w arousal during exposure to anesthesia VTA :GTA releases dopamine Hypothalamus o Ventrolateral preoptic nucleus (VLPO)→ GABA and galanin. Maximally active during NREM and REM sleep, inhibits arousal centers in brainstem. ***only structure a/w sleep!! o Orexingeric neurons → maximally active in the waking state. a/w emergence from anesthesia (NOT sedation) o Tuberomammillary nucleus (TMN) → histamine, a/w wakefulness Thalamus → >50 nuclei, relays sensory input from cortex and periphery o a/w arousal, sensory processing, cortical computation, transmission arousal signals from brainstem o proposed site for “ON/OFF” switch of anesthesia → IV and VA anesthetics cause metabolic depression of thalamus, EXCEPT ketamine o Sensory nuclei in thalamus appear to be LESS involved in anesthetic-induced unconsciousness vs. higher order or “nonspecific nuceli” Long-term potentiation (LTP) → structural and functional model of memory consolidation o a/w activation of post-synaptic NMDA receptors w/ influx of Na+ and Ca+2 (calcium critical trigger for LTP) NO evidence anesthetics cause retrograde amnesia NO impairment of pictures or words presented BEFORE infusion of propofol, midazolam, thiopental, dexmedetomidine Propofol and BZDs are a/w retrograde facilitation → enhanced memory of material presented BEFORE drug administration o Some patients will not recall the immediate preanesthetic period at all – a/w ↑ age Memory: o Dexmedetomidine + thiopental → impair encoding. Propofol makes pts heavy (=consolidated) o Propofol + low dose midazolam → impair consolidation. Dex+Thio: “how do you (en)code these drugs?” Midazolam is in the middle = Dose dependent o Midazolam: low dose – only consolidation, high dose – consolidation + encoding Most anesthetics dominant effect on attention is ↓ arousal, EXCEPT Ketamine – dominant effect on orienting and selection Chapter 10 - sleep PARTIAL Sleep stages: β → α → ϴ → ϴ + sleep spindles + k complexes → mixed o “α → ϴ transition” a/w sleep onset NREM → low frequency, high amplitude. ↓ HR, ↓ temp, waxing and waning muscle tone REM → mixed frequency, low voltage. Irregularities of HR & RR.
