Why does hyperventilation increase risk of digitalis toxicity?
Give this one a try later!
Hyperventilation --> hypokalemia --> increased binding of digitalis to Na/K
ATPase --> excessive drug effect.
Serum potassium levels decrease by 0.5 mEq/L for each 10 mmHg
decrease in PaCO2.
,Which anesthetic technique should be avoided for a patient with multiple sclerosis?
Give this one a try later!
Spinal, it exacerbates their symptoms
3 sites a congenital diaphragmatic hernia can come through
Give this one a try later!
1. Foramen of Bochdalek, 80% of the time, which is left side posterolateral

What is in cryoprecipitate, how much of it, when should you give it, and how much
does it increase?
Give this one a try later!
Factors I, VIII, vWF, XIII, and fibronectin.
Cryo has 15 g/L of fibrinogen, while FFP only has 2.5 g/L, meaning cryo has
6x more fibrinogen.
You should give it when fibrinogen levels are >80 mg/dL.
Your serum fibrinogen is expected to increase by 50 mg/dL for each dose
(5 pooled bags = single dose).
