Instruments
It is a perforating clamp used for securing towels/drapes in a procedure.
towel clamp
Made of a single strand of material & creates less tissue drag
monofilament suture
This technique requires exam gloves & a sterile bowl gauze to prep the patient
Dirty scrub
This facilitates ventilation & provides easy delivery of anesthetics
Endotracheal tubes
This is beneficial to the patient, based on health status and is given IM
Preanesthetic Medication (PreMed)
What sign should a patient give when it is ready to be extubated
3 good swallows/ gag-reflexes
This surgical instrument is designed for cutting delicate tissues & blunt dissection. (80% handle & 20% blade)
Metzenbaum
Made from the submucosa of sheep intestine or serosa of bovine intestine
Surgical catgut
The medical term for incision into the intestines
enterotomy
This measures & delivers a constant gas flow to other parts of the anesthesia machine
Flowmeter
Provides smooth transition from consciousness to unconsciousness
Induction
Which anesthesia plane is when a patient unconsciousness is light, movement in response to stimulus & eyes are central position.
Light anesthesia (Stage 3, Plane 1)
This category of instrument(s) is used to clamp blood vessels & have a locking mechanism.
Hemostatic forceps
The needle & suture are joined together in a continulous unit
Swagged needles
It is a flammable explosive liquid that becomes an effective sterilizing agent when mixed with CO2.
Ethylene Oxide
Delivers O2 & anesthetic vapors to patients & transports exhaled gases from the patient
Breathing Circuits
This is the characteristic of a EKG waveform
P, QRS-complex, T
Depth required for painful surgeries.
Stage III, Plane 3: Medium-Deep anesthesia
This tool has no cutting edges & is used to manipulate needles in surgery
May hager needle driver
Generally broken down by hydrolysis
Synthetic absorbable material
Common injury to the knee, similar to ACL in humans
CCL; cranial cruciate ligament rupture
This provides positive pressure ventilation or to inflate lungs
Reservoir Bag
A sensor piece connected between ETT & breathing circuit.
Apnea monitor
When does the "recovery" phase begin.
Once the gas is turned off and the patient is alert, ambulatory & vitals are near normal
Known as a rib spreader, designed for thoracic procedures

surgical mesh
This surgical procedure is performed to correct laryngeal paralysis in canines
Tie-back procedure
The function of the positive pressure relief valve
Allows the release of waste gases & extra pressure from the system into the scavenger hose.
This monitors the estimated percentage of O2 being carried in the blood.
