Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Vivacast Round Two - Physiology of pregnancy, Peri partum emergencies and cardiac risk
Q: Can you describe to me the physiological changes associated with pregnancy?
The host prompts for a breakdown by organ system, highlighting increases in cardiac output, partial respiratory alkalosis, airway edema, and a relative hemodilution with a prothrombotic state, while noting changes in renal and hepatic function that impact anesthetic planning.
VivaCast Round Two - Heparin and Propofol
Q: What is propofol infusion syndrome and how is it managed?
Propofol infusion syndrome is a serious complication from prolonged high-rate propofol infusions, characterized by hemodynamic instability, metabolic acidosis, rhabdomyolysis, and hyperkalemia; management is supportive, stopping propofol, fluids, and ensuring hypnosis with alternatives if needed.
VivaCast Round Two - Heparin and Propofol
Q: How would you reverse unfractionated heparin in a bleeding patient?
The fastest approach is protamine, which directly antagonizes heparin, or alternatively administer coagulation factors to rebalance hemostasis.
VivaCast Round Two - Heparin and Propofol
Q: How does heparin exert its anticoagulant effect?
Heparin enhances antithrombin-3 activity by a thousandfold, which inhibits thrombin and other coagulation factors, providing a broad anticoagulant effect.
AntiCholinesterases for Adept Anaesthetists
Q: Which of the following best describes the mechanism of action of peridostigmine? A, competitive antagonism at nicotinic receptors. B, inhibition of acetylcholine release. C, carbimylation of acetylcholine esterases. D, irreversible binding to acetylcholine esterases. Or E, direct stimulation of muscarinic receptors.
The correct mechanism is carbamylation of acetylcholine esterase at the esteratic and anionic sites, i.e., option C, which is consistent with its carbamate nature.
