Term
Goal of anesthetic Monitoring
Definition
Ensure Adequate tissue perfusion w/ Oxygenated blood
Term
Subjective monitoring
Definition
Visual, touch, auditory
Term
Objective monitoring
Definition
Using monitors
Term
ACVA Monitoring recommendations
Definition
Circulation, Oxygenation, Ventilation, Personnel, Medical record
Term
The anesthetic record
Definition
- Legal Doc
- Continuous monitor
- Record every 5 min
- Alerts you to trends
Term
Circulation electrical vs. Mechanical activity
Definition
Electrical activity - the heart can have WITH OUT mechanical (pumping) = no CO
Term
Measures of Mechanical activity (circulation))
Definition
- Pulse pressure
- Mean art BP = MAP
- Central Venous pressure= CVP
Term
Measures of Electrical Activity
Definition
- ECG
Term
ECG lead types
Definition
fine gauge wire
Stick on patch
skin staple
esophageal stethoscope
Clips can cause trauma
Term
How to monitor pulse pressures
Definition
Palpation
Auditory - Doppler, Esophageal stethoscope, Pulse Oximeter
Term
Pulse Pressure
Definition
= Difference between systole and diastole
Term
Is Pulse Pressure a good indicator of Mean Arterial Pressure?
Definition
NOOOOOOO! pressure is difference between systolic and diastolic pressure

120 - 80 = pp of 40
80 - 40 = pp of 40
same pp but not a good indicator of Mean Art Press
Term
Areas to palpate for Pulse Pressure
Definition
- Femoral artery
- Carpal (bottom) and Tarsal (top) arteries
- Lingual artery
Term
Auditory Pulse Monitoring
Definition
Use esophageal stethoscope or Doppler
Term
Mean art BP formula
Definition
MAP = CO * SVR

CO = SV * HR

SV = Contractility * Load
Term
What value would you like the MAP to be
Definition
Would like MAP > 60 mmHg
Term
What drives the blood perfusion?
Definition
MAP
Term
What is the lateral force / unit area exerted on a vessel wall?
Definition
MAP
Term
How is MAP calculated
Definition
(Systolic press + Diastolic p + Diastolic Press) / 3 = MAP
This is why pulse pressure is a bad estimate
Term
2 indirect (non-invasive) methods of getting Arterial BP
Definition
- Manual - Doppler
- Automated - Oscillmetric method
Term
Cuff width
Definition
40% of Limb circumference
Term
If cuff is too wide
Definition
artificially lowers values
Term
Cuff too narrow
Definition
artificially elevates values
Term
Where to place cuff on cats
Definition
Above elbow on medial side
Term
Where to place cuff on dog
Definition
distal forelimb (bottom) or Distal rearlimb (top)
Term
Cuff on equine
Definition
Tail
Term
Cuff on ruminant
Definition
Tail or distal Limb
Term
Direct Arterial BP methods (Invasive)
Definition
requires an arterial cath
two methods - Connect art cath to
1. Transducer to read w/ Occliscope
2. Pulsations can be read w/ Aneroid Manometer
Term
What is the measurement of the luminal pressure in the intrathoracic vena cava or RA
Definition
CVP - Central Venous Pressure
Term
CVP - Central Venous Pressure what does it reflect
Definition
1. Ability of heart to pump returning blood
1. Adequacy of the circulating blood volume
Term
To measure CVP
Definition
Usually hook up to a
Water Manometer or
Transducer (most common)
Term
What does CVP monitor
Definition
VOLUME - Use as a gauge for if you should give more or less Volume of fluids
Term
3 ways to monitor Ventilation
Definition
1. Observation (thoracic wall, breathing bag movement)
2. Auditory (Honker, Esophageal stetho)
3. Carbon Dioxide (BG, capnography)
Term
Reasons for Tachypnea
Definition
- Too light or too deep
- Drug Induced
- Obese or Old
- Hypoxic
- Hyperthermic
Term
Reasons for Bradycardia/Apnea
Definition
CNS Depression (Too deep)
Opoids
barbituates
propofol
after neruro procedures
Term
2 measures of ventilation that use CO2
Definition
1. Arterial BG - Invasive
2, End Expired analysis = Capnography (non-invasive)
Term
Capnography description
Definition
Instrument that measures end-tidal volume CO2 - ETCO2

Provides an estimate of arterial carbon dioxide partial pressure (PaCO2)
Term
Normal Arterial CO2
Definition
40-45 mmHg
- Can use end-expired CO2 to approx Arterial values of CO2
Term
Reasons for Increased CO2
Definition
Hypoventilation
Overproduction
Rebreathing
Term
Decreased CO2 reasons
Definition
Hyperventilation
Cardiac Arrest
Term
In the Capnography graph need to know when Inhale and Exhale
Definition
Inhale at end of peak
Exhale at end of low

makes since CO2 rises when exhaling
CO2 decreases when inspiration begins
Term
If the Capnograph has an elevated base line =
Definition
rebreathing CO2
Term
If the Capnograph continually gets smaller and smaller
Definition
Cardiac Arrest. Animal is still ventilating but Heart has stopped
Term
When you see little oscillations in the capnograph
Definition
are just cardiac contractions. The heart beats hit lungs and causes little tufts of CO2
Term
Good Standard of Ventilation after blood gas
Definition
Capnography
Term
Uses of Capnography
Definition
- Monitor resp and vent
- Verify tracheal intubation
- monitor rebreathing of CO2
- Predict survival for Cardiac Arrest
Term
3 methods to monitor Oxygenation
Definition
1. Mucous Membrane Color (non-invasive)
2. Art blood gas analysis (invasive)
3. Pulse Oximetry (non-invasive)
Term
Adequate Oxygenation depends on what 3 things
Definition
1. Adequate Blood Oxygen
2. Adequate Hg content (pack cell volume)
3. Adequate Peripheral perfusion
Term
When will the pulse Ox alarm go off?
Definition
@ PO2 of 60mmHg = 90% saturation
Term
Checking MM color for Oxygenation
Definition
- Not very sensitive
- Looking for Cyanosis
- occurs when unsat Hemoglobin > 5g /100mls
- Blood turns from red to blue
-
Term
What the Arterial Blood Gas Provides
Definition
- Acid base
- Oxygenation
-Ventilation
Term
Can the pulse Ox tell you about ventilation?
Definition
NO- the pulse ox can not tell you if the animal is breathing
Term
What does Pulse Ox tell you
Definition
The % od hemoglobin saturated with O2- ie: Oxygenation

Also monitors: Pulse rate, Pulse rhythm, CO
Term
The pulse ox machine can be interfered with by many things what are common ones.
Definition
- Motion
- Low perfusion
- Optical Interference
- Anemia
- Carbon Monoxide
- Methemoglobin
- Intravascular dyes
Term
ways to monitor Depth of anesthesia (5)
Definition
1. CNS activity (EEG)
2. Muscle reaction (Jaw tone)
3. Response to stimuli
4. Sympathetic responses (HR, BP, RR)
5. Eye position / Activity
Term
What is the eye position of a surgical plane of anesthesia
Definition
rotated ventral medial --> Looking at nose

Dull palpebral reflex
Term
How much blood can they lose before we get worried
Definition
10%
Term
How much blood can one 4x4 swab hold?
Definition
10 ml
Term
What 3 things does an Art BG tell us about
Definition
1. Acid Base
2. Oxygenation
3. Ventilation
Term
What instrument tells you about % hemoglobin saturated by oxygen. but doesn't tell you if the patient is breathing
Definition
Pulse Ox
Term
Motion, Low Perfusion, Optical interference can all cause errors with what
Definition
Pulse Ox
Term
WHere should the eyes be looking when in surgical plane
Definition
Ventral Medial - Looking at their nose
Term
how much blood can be in one 4x4 gauze
Definition

Term
Do you need more or less anesthetic when patient is hyopthermic
Definition
LESS! Less metabolism/Breathing
