2. Critical values for GERD include: pH <2.5, volume >25 ml (0.4ml/kg), presence of particulate matter.

Submit

3. GERD is symptoms of mucosal damage produced by the abnormal reflux of gastric contents into the esophagus. 

Explanation

4. An 80 year old female presents for a right knee arthroscopy.  You plan to maintain with sevoflurane.  Which would be an appropriate dose of sevo to use.

Explanation

MAC decreases by 6% each decade after 40. 24% decrease in MAC = MAC 1.5 in an 80 year old.

Submit

5. In the obese patient, FRC, expiratory reserve volume, and total lung capacity ____________.
There is a _____ % decrease in FRC in an obese patient in the supine position compared to a 20% decrease in FRC in the normal patient.

Submit

6. The hypothermic patient is more likely to clot due to increased coagulation activity.

Explanation

More likely to bleed due to coagulation dysfunction.

Submit

7. An alteration seen in the elderly includes

Submit

8. Along with confusion, dyspnea, and hypoxia, petechiae noted on the chest, upper extremities, axillae, and conjunctiva can signify the presence of a

Explanation

Typically presents 72 hours after a long bone or pelvic fracture.

I guess D could be correct!

Submit

9. Tight fluid management is necessary in robotic cases to prevent:

Explanation

increased IOP in steep Trendelenburg increases the incidence of blindness
excess fluids can cause HYPOthermia and increase bleeding risk

Submit

10. Match the following

Submit

11. A complication of laparoscopy can include venous air embolism.  Treatment includes: 

Explanation

The patient is placed in the left lateral decubitus in Trendelenburg to trap the air embolus and prevent its migration into the PA.

Submit

12. Due to dysregulation in the thalamus, the elderly population loses core body temperature faster than younger populations.

Explanation

Thermoregulation is controlled in the HYPOTHALAMUS.

Submit

13. Syndrome X , or "metabolic syndrome" must include three of which of the following FIVE indicators:

Explanation

Metabolic syndrome = large waist circumference (apple-shaped or male-central obesity), high triglycerides, low HDL (high-density lipoproteins), glucose intolerance, and hypertension. There is a higher risk of acquiring type II DM with metabolic syndrome/syndrome X.

Submit

14. Match the following

Submit

15. Fluid management should include <_______ml of fluid in a robotic case to decrease IOP and airway edema.

Submit

16. Populations at risk for OSA include:

Explanation

Male, middle-aged, obese (BMI>30), neck girth of >17in for men and >16in for women, evening alcohol consumption/sleeping aids
