dihydropyridines (amlodipine, nicardipine, etc) reduce BP MOA: block influx of Ca in vascular smooth muscle cells necessary to cause smooth muscle contraction thereby dec SVR; inhibit slow transmembrane Ca influx into cell via voltage-gated L-type Ca channels Indications: hypertension, hypertensive crisis Adverse effects: tachycardia, nausea, constipation, weakness, afferent art vasodilation in excess of efferent causing decrease in perfusion and possible kidney damage

What causes the decreasing responsiveness of CHF patients to loop diuretics?

hypertrophy of distal nephron results increased compensatory solute reabsorption; commonly requires loop diuretic be paired with more distal for sequential nephron blockade

Aspirin: MOA, indications, adverse effects

i.e. acetysalcylic acid MOA: - irreversible blockade of platelet COX1 --> long-lasting platelet inhibition (permanent for life of platelets ~6 days in dogs), --> reason for success of "ultra low dose" protocols; - TXA2 is potent vasoconstrictor and platelet agonist produced by activated platelets via Cox enzyme in cytosol; - Arachidonic acid from platelet membrane is used to produce TXA2 --> inhibition of COX1 decreases TXA2 production --> antiplatelet effects (decreased rate of aggregation) of aspirin; - cats in general have reactive platelets and may not benefit from ASA tx due to sensitivity of platelets to other agonists that minimize contribution of TXA2 to secondary aggregation Indications: thromboprophylaxis Adverse effects: - effects less well study/established in cats - GI irritation --> nausea, vomiting, anorexia, diarrhea - occult to severe GI blood loss - hypersensitivity reported in dogs

Nucleoside analogs: MOA, indications, adverse effects

i.e. cangrelor, ticagrelor MOA: - inhibit effects of ADP on aggregation; - reversible inhibition of P2Y12 receptor; - do not require hepatic metabolism for effect; - noncompetitively inhibit ADP binding to P2Y12; - after cessation, platelet function returns to normal within 1-12 hours Indications: thromboprophylaxis Adverse effects: - hypersensitivity - hemorrhage - anaphylaxis

Low molecular weight heparin: MOA, indications, adverse effects, monitoring

i.e. dalteparin, enoxaparin MOA: - 1/3 size UFH (4-5,000 Da) - contain molecueles weighting ~5k Da; - 30% of molecules can bind both AT and FIIa; - due to size, exert primary effect on FXa; - no long tail --> no binding to II (or very little) - longer elimination half life (3-6h) than UFH so dosed q12-24h - 100% SQ bioavail - more predictable effects - clearance kidneys - protamine reverses 60% anti-Xa activity (favors larger chains) Indications: thrombophrophylaxis Adverse effects: caution in patients with dec GFR because LMWH excreted mainly in kidneys; Monitoring: anti-Xa 4-6 hours after administration

Alpha Adrenergic receptor antagonists: MOA, indications, adverse effects

i.e. prazosin MOA: selectively antagonizing a receptors; prazosin comp antag of postsynaptic a1 receptors Indications: primary or adjunctive tx of htn in dogs; pheo, micturition disorders bc relax urethra Adverse effects: profound hypotension

Beta Adrenergic receptor antagonists: MOA, indications, adverse effects

ie propranolol (B1, B2), atenolol (B1) MOA: blockade of renin release, reduction of HR, contractility, dec PVR, reduction in central adrenergic drive Indications: when primary tx fails, HCM, supraventricular and ventricular tachycardias Adverse effects: brochospasm, hyperkalemia, bradycardia, insulin resistance, depression

What effect does venular vasoconstriction have?

increases venous return by decreasing venous capacitance up to a point, then with excessive tone, increased resistance so decreased venous return

Causes of secondary hypertension

kidney disease, DM, Cushings, hypert4, hepatic disease, pheo, hyperaldosteronism, polycythemia, chronic anemia, EPO, steroids

What are Beta lactamases?

most gram neg rods and staph produce enzyme which inactivates B lactam abx by cleaving B lactam ring; found on plasmids, which allows for transmission of resistance within and among bacterial species

What is neuroleptanalgesia?

opioid with anxiolytic drug

what is a complication of diazepam in cats?

oral administration can result in idiosyncratic acute hepatic necrosis

Primary hypertension

result of imbalance between CO and SVR

What are penicillin-binding proteins?

transpeptidases, peptidoglycan-active enzymes that catalyze the cross-linking of the glycopeptides which form the bacterial cell wall

What is mecA?

type of mutation acquired by staph that codes for PBP-2a. Alters cell wall permeability, prevents binding of B lactam abx and causes resistance in staph spp to B lactams (MRS)

How would additional venoconstriction with a catecholamine affect venous return and CO in euvolemic vs hypovolemic patient?

- Adequate effective circulating volume but vasodilation --> increased CO due to venoconstriction of capacitance vessels - Hypovolemia with pre-existing vasoconstriction --> further venoconstriction of resistance vessels leads to decreased venous return and CO

Describe effects of a2 agonists on the cardiovascular system

- Biphasic CV response: initially BP and SVR increase leading to reflex bradycardia and decrease in CO; second phase is decrease in arterial pressure; HR and CO remain lower than normal; bradycardia may be accomp by other arrhythmias; CV effects dose-dependent - Vasoconstrictive effect caused by stimulation of a2 adrenoceptors on vasc smooth muscl of a and v; - Bradycardia - baroreceptor response; may also be related to central sympatholytic action of a2 agonists that leaves vagal tone unopposed, to an increase in parasymp efferent activity or to presyn mediated reduction in norepi release in cardiac sympath nerves - CO may be improved with combining these drugs with anticholinergic but no good studies - Induce blood flow redistribution; BF to heart, brain, kidneys might be partially or totally preserved at expense of poor BF to skin muscle intestine - maintains balance between myocardial O2 demand and supply despite CV effects - May be arrhythmogenic - reduction in HR may reveal foci that are normally inhibited by impulses coming from SA node; however, administration is protective against vtach or fib after ischemia reperfusion - Ca channel blockers may inhibit vasoconstriction while preserving central effects

Describe effects other than CNS and CV of a2 agonists

- Decreased RR but maint of minute ventilation - inhibit sympathetic outflow, modulate stress response to anesth and sx; decrease plasma levels of circulating catecholamines - inhibition of insulin release - stimulation of a2 receptors on B-islets causes reduced insulin release and hyperglycemia - increased release of growth hormone --> hyperglycemia - inhibit release of ADH and its effect on renal tubules --> promote diuresis and natriuresis - inhibit release of renin, increase secretion of ANP - decrease in salivation, LES pressure, esoph, gastric, intestinal motility, gastric secretion - vomiting in 8-20% of dogs, 90% of cats - stimulation of a2 adrenoceptors in CRTZ
