This is the dose of ketamine that is used during intubation for both adult and pediatric patients.
What is 1-2mg/kg IV?
Propofol causes this, making it a poor choice for patients in septic or hemorrhagic shock.
What is hypotension?
Rocuronium and vecuronium are known as this class of RSI agent
What is a nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent?
Ketofol is a combination between these 2 drugs.
What is ketamine and propofol?
Pre-intubation drugs, bleeding, dehydration, patient’s clinical condition are some of the factors that can lead to this most common complication of RSI.
What is hypotension?
This is the name and the standard dose for RSI for this frequently used induction medication that is known for NOT causing hypotension (in mg/kg)
What is 0.3mg/kg of Etomidate?
Ketamine can do this to your systemic blood pressure, so be careful when using it with patients with coronary artery disease.
What is elevate the blood pressure?
Etomidate blocks this receptor - responsible for neuroexcitation
What is GABA receptor?
Ketamine provides this along with amnestic and sedative effects
What is analgesia?
This drug may make ventilation difficult by causing a rigid chest wall.
What is fentanyl?
This is the standard IV dose of rocuronium used during RSI
What is 0.6 to 1.2 mg/kg?
This drug is contraindicated in patients with egg or soybean allergy.
What is propofol?
Sugammadex reverses this paralytic by binding to nicotinic receptors in the neuromuscular junction.
What is rocuronium?
Ketamine causes this effect on the lungs, making it a favorable option for intubating patients with asthma and reactive airway disease
What is bronchodilation?
Pediatric patients should be given atropine to avoid bradycardia associated with this paralytic agent.
What is succinylcholine?
This is the standard RSI dose of rocuronium.
What is 1mg/kg IV?
This medication is absolutely contraindicated in patients with personal or family history of malignant hypothermia as they are at a high risk for hyperkalemia.
What is succinylcholine?
This is a Mu receptor agonist that provides analgesia.
What is fentanyl?
Ketamine can cause this if pushed too fast.
What is laryngospasm?
This medication can be used to help dry oral secretions in pediatric patients.
What is glycopyrrolate?
This is the standard pediatric RSI dose of propofol.
What is 1-1.5 mg/kg IV?
Etomidate may be the most hemodynamically stable induction agent, but it can cause this side-effect.
Adrenocortical supression
Upregulation of this receptor can lead to an increased risk for hyperkalemia in patients with long term immobilization, stroke > 72 hours, MS, burns >72 hours ago and infection with exotoxin production such as tetanus and botulism
What is acetylcholine receptor?
Concerns about ketamine causing elevated intracranial pressure has been largely proven untrue, however, ketamine should not be used when this is seen on exam or vital sings.
What is evidence of brain herniation and hypertension?
This paralytic can increase your safe apnea time
What is rocuronium.
