Spinal Anaesthesia used on a patient needs monitoring for ________(a) Oxygen levels(b) Hyper tension(c) Renal Function(d) Brain activityThis question was posed to me in an international level competition.My question is taken from Pre and Post Operative Care in portion Anaesthesia of Clinical Science

Answer»

Right answer is (C) Renal Function

To elaborate: All the toxins and the administered medicines are removed by the kidney. Thus, when anesthesia is GIVEN in the spine, it is usually a LOCAL anesthesia and numbs the lower part of the body. Since the lower part of the body had been anesthetized, kidney which is also supplied to by these nerves may also be affected thus monitoring renal function BECOMES important.

52.

In this type of anesthesia, all the impulses from a nerve are blocked.(a) Nerve Blocks(b) Spinal Anesthesia(c) Topical Anesthesia(d) Epidural BlocksThis question was addressed to me in a national level competition.This intriguing question originated from Anaesthesia Pre and Post Care topic in division Anaesthesia of Clinical Science

Answer»

Right option is (a) Nerve Blocks

Easy explanation: In a nerve block, the anesthesia is INJECTED in the nerves that supply to the system. When the PARTICULAR nerve is anesthetized, it becomes PARALYZED for the duration of the OPERATION and the whole area where the nerve supplied becomes NUMB as there is no exchange of information between that area and the brain.

53.

AEP stands for ________(a) Auditory Evoked Potential(b) Auxiliary Evoked Potential(c) Audiovisual Evoked Potential(d) Ambulatory Evoked PotentialI got this question during an interview for a job.My question is based upon General Anaesthesia in portion Anaesthesia of Clinical Science

Answer»

The CORRECT choice is (a) Auditory Evoked Potential

The best explanation: Auditory Evoked Potential is a TYPE of test done to look into the response of a person to an auditory stimulus. The brain waves are RECORDED with the help of an EEG. This test is also used for a patient under general anesthesia to keep a track of the level of CONSCIOUSNESS of the person.

54.

What is epidural?(a) A type of anesthesia used during childbirth(b) A type of anesthesia used for implants(c) A type of anesthesia used for rheumatic surgery(d) A type of anesthesia used for renal transplantThis question was addressed to me in a national level competition.This intriguing question originated from Anaesthesia Pre and Post Care in portion Anaesthesia of Clinical Science

Answer»

Correct option is (a) A type of anesthesia used during childbirth

To explain: EPIDURAL is when anesthesia is ADMINISTERED in the epidural space of the spinal chord. During a normal childbirth, it is used as a relaxant and dilator. During cesarian, an increased dose is used as anesthesia. Epidural is COMMONLY known for childbirth but is used in many other cases. Sometimes, a catheter is used to continuously administer the drug to prolong the numbing sensation.

55.

What all modes exist in ventilator?(a) Neonatal mode, normal mode(b) Normal mode, geriatric mode(c) Neonatal mode, normal mode, geriatric mode(d) Neonatal mode, pediatric mode, normal mode, geriatric modeI got this question in a national level competition.The origin of the question is Laws of Gases, Uptake of Anaesthetic Gases and Vapours, Patient Monitoring During Surgery topic in chapter Anaesthesia of Clinical Science

Answer»

Right option is (a) Neonatal MODE, NORMAL mode

To ELABORATE: A neonate has very delicate lungs so they need special care during ventilation. THUS, they have a SEPARATE mode. In modern ventilators, there is separate kind of ventilators, especially for the neonates. All the other population is kept on the normal mode.
