Avoidance of inotrope to reduce myocardial oxygen demand d. Increased afterload to perfuse hypertrophied myocardium
- Increase heart rate to maximize cardiac output - Hallmark systolic heart failure is decreased ejection with an increased end diastolic volume (ventricle does not empty well) since the heart cant squeeze well a greater volume of blood remains in the ventricle after each contraction. The body compensates with SNS activation- this increases heart rate. Stroke volume is reduced the only way to maintain cardiac output is to increase heart rate. Anesthetic considerations: o Preload: already high- don't get higher o Afterload: decrease to reduce the LV workload o Heart rate: maintain high/normal range o Contractility: inotropic support as needed
1) Which finding MOST likely occur in patient with congestive heart failure? a. Decreased natriuretic peptide b. Decreased left ventricular end diastolic pressure c. Increased renal blood flow d. Increased sympathetic tone
- Increased sympathetic tone: rely on elevated levels of circulating catecholamines (increased SNS tone) anesthetic techniques interrupt mechanism precipitate cardiovascular collapse ex: induction propofol (2mg/kg) reduce SNS tone while reducing myocardial contractility. Ketamine preserves SNS

- Jugular venous pressure: during inspiration, negative pressure in thoracic cavity augments blood flow into right ventricle. Reduces jugular venous pressure during inspiration. Kussmaul sign is paradoxical rise on jugular venous pressure during inspiration. Caused by restriction in RV filling and high right-sided heart pressure is reflected back to jugular veins.

1) Which drug MOST likely to increase the degree of prolapse in patient with mitral valve prolapse a. Phenylephrine b. Ketamine c. Etomidate d. Sevoflurane
- Ketamine: large ventricle tend to reduce MV prolapse, while a small ventricle tends to increase MV prolapse. For this reason the primary management goal for MVP is to prevent excessive cardiac emptying - To keep the heart full, youll want to avoid: SNS stimulation myocardial contractility, decreased SVR. Hypovolemia, upright posture (reverse Trendelenburg or sitting position) - Pharmacologic considerations: ketamine avoided bc activates SNS, increases myocardial contractility and augments LV emptying - Etomidate provides cardio stability, making it reasonable choice - Volatile anesthetic+ N2O and or opioids help minimize SNS stimulation but they must titrated to prevent significant decrease in systemic vascular resistance - Phenylephrine is useful hypotension - There is no contraindication to regional anesthesia
1) Select the BEST induction agent for patient with pericardial tamponade a. Ketamine b. Midazolam c. Propofol d. Etomidate
- Ketamine: pt with pericardial tamponade relies upon SNS to maintain blood pressure.

1) Which law explains why abdominal aneurysm is more likely to rupture during a period of hypertension a. Poiseuille b. Bernoulli c. Laplace henry
- Law of laplace: tension is a pulling force that stretches or elongates something. For cylinder (aorta) law of laplace states that tension is the product of pressure and radius (T= Px R) - Both aorta and aneurysm are exposed to mean arterial pressure. According to law of laplace if the pressure is constant and radius is increased, tension must increase as result. If this patient becomes hypertensive, the tension on aneurysm rises, possibly leading to rupture. - Poiseilles law: describes laminar flow through tube. Flow is directly proportional to radius raised to the fourth power and pressure difference along the tube (P1-P2). Flow is inversely proportional to viscosity and length of tube. Bernoullis principle describes flow through constriction. At site of constriction fluid velocity increases creating a pressure drop at the point of constriction. Henry law: describes solubility of gas in solution

- Parallel replication of sarcomeres in left atrium- since left atrium must generate a higher pressure to push blood past a stenotic mitral valve, LA (not the LV) hypertrophies to satisfy the demand. Heart compensates for pressure overload with concentric hypertrophy (parallel replication of sarcomeres) LV is chronically underfilled in mitral stenosis so there is no reason for chamber to increase in diameter.
1) Which of the following increase after placement of infra-renal aortic cross clamp (2): a. Cardiac output b. Mixed venous oxygen saturation c. Preload d. Renal blood flow
- Preload and mixed venous oxygen saturation: mixed venous oxygen saturation as a function of decreased oxygen consumption. You are putting the same quantity of oxygen into the lungs but cells distal to aortic clamp don't receive or consume it. Preload increases because the blood volume is shifted proximal to clamp. This increases cardiac filling pressure and wall stress. The contractile function of myocardium and increase in afterload determine cardiac output. CO usually unchanged in healthy in healthy heart and decreased in patients with reduced cardiac reserve

- Valsalva maneuver, ephedrine, nitroprusside:
1) Select BEST treatment of hypotensive patient with mirtal stenosis a. Dobutamine b. Vasopressin c. Ephedrine d. Epinephrine
- Vasopressin: increased HR could be detrimental with mitral stenosis because it reduces diastolic filling time, increases left atrial volume and pressure and increases the risk of pulmonary edema. Ephedrine, epinephrine and dobutamine increase heart rate. Pt treated with pure vasoconstrictor (vasopressin) bc it does not increase heart rate. Phenylephrine first best choice.
