emend aka apreitant blocks what, which is a regulartory peptine in GIT and CNS | substance P |
this is the only FDA approved neurokinin one antagonist | Emend aka aprepitant |
high risk patient should take emend how much and how long before induction | 40mg PO three hours prior to induction |
propofol and ponv | subtheraputic dose can be used |
ephedrine and NV from postural and hypotension | dose 5 to 10mg every 5 to 10min prn |
stimulation of what accu point decreased of PONV | stimulation of P6 accu point, loacted in palmaris longus and flexicarpi radialus or wrist |
strategies to prevent PONV | regional, TIVA, high FIO2, hydration, N2O avoidance, min opioids, Minimize Neostigmine |
other causes of PONV | pain, hypotension, hypoxemia, hypoglycemia, increased ICP, GI bleeding |
be alert to EKG changes after 5HT3 Blockers, or droperidol why | prolonged QT possible torsade de pointes |
deglutition aka | swallowing |
cough has a pressure of | 100torr |
cranial nerves associated with cough | 9 and 10. glassopharyngeal and vagus |
swallowing and breathing | parallel pathways, voluntary and involuntary mechanism are at play, |
pharyngeal reflex or _____blocks the respiratory pathway and forcefully expels foreign matter. | gagging |
define aspiration pneumonitis | inflow of highly acidic gastric content triggering severe inflammatory reaction |
with aspiration pneumonitis injury occurs to the | trachea, bronchioles, lung tissue, pulmonary capillary endothelium |
how long does it take for the inflamatroy reponse to kick in with aspiration pneumonitis | 6-12 hours or so |

mendelson in 1946 spoke of aspiration of stomach contents into the lungs during | OB anesthesia. |
aspiration depends on two key parameters which makes it more deleterious | Ph less than 2.5 and volume greater than 25ml. |
what produces HCL acid | gastrin and the perital cell of stomach |
mendelson syndrome | Ph of less than 2.5 and volume more than 25ml |
process of deglutition | peristalic waves 3 to 4 a min, mixing gastric contents, and ideally 3% of gastric volume ie chyme enter the small bowel per min |
reasons why gastric volume emptying may be delayed | entrogastric inhibitory nervous reflex |
what can we give for Entrogastric Inhibitory Nervous Reflux | |
