Effect-Site Decrement Times
Electrical Axis of the Heart As Determined from the Standard Limb Leads of the Electrocardiogram
Elimination of Inhaled Anesthetics is Defined As the Ratio of the End-Tidal Anesthetic Concentration (Fa) to the Fa Immediately Before the Beginning of Elimination (Fao) The Rate of Decrease (Awakening from Anesthesia) in the Fa/Fao is Most Rapid With the Anesthetics that are Least Soluble in Blood (Nitrous Oxide, Desflurane, Sevoflurane)
Erythromycin, 200 mg Intravenously over 15 Minutes, Followed by Ingestion of a Radioactive-Labeled Meal (Scrambled Egg, Toast, and Water) Resulted in More Rapid Emptying of Solids and Liquids (IV Solids and IV Liquids) in Patients With Diabetic Gastroparesis and Patients Without Diabetes Compared With Gastric Emptying Times in the Absence of Erythromycin (Basal Solids and Basal Liquids)
Etomidate, but Not Thiopental, is Associated With Decreases in the Plasma Concentrations of Cortisol
Excess Protamine Contributes to Elevations in the Activated Clotting Time (ACT), at Excesses of the Exact Dose Required to Reverse Systemic Anticoagulation Thus, Overdosage of Protamine Should Be Strictly Avoided
Fentanyl and Alfentanil Arterial Concentrations (Circles) and Electroencephalographic (EEG) Response (Irregular Line) to an Intravenous Infusion Alfentanil Shows a Less Time Lag Between the Rise and Fall of Arterial Concentration and the Rise and Fall of EEG Response Than Fentanyl Because It Equilibrates With the Brain More Quickly
Fetal-Maternal Arterial (Fa/Ma) Lidocaine Ratios are Greater During Acidemia Compared With a Normal pH
First-Degree Av Block
Gamma-Cyclodextrin (A) and Sugammadex (Modified gamma-Cyclodextrin) (B)
Gastric Emptying of Liquids is Exponential, Whereas Emptying of Solids is a Linear Process
Endogenous Corticosteroids
Ester and Amide Local Anesthetics
Events Triggered by Hypoxia Leading to Cell Death
Factors Affecting the Distribution of Pulmonary Blood Flow During One-Lung Ventilation (OLV)
Fentanyl Infusion Rate to Maintain a Plasma Concentration of 1 chr(956)G/Hr The Rate Starts Off Quite High Because Fentanyl is Avidly Taken Up by Body Fat
Fibrinogen is Converted to Fibrin that Polymerizes by the Action of Thrombin The Electron Micrograph Shows a Fibrin Clot With Red Blood Cells Trapped
Fraction of Halothane Removed During Passage through the Liver at Progressively Decreasing Alveolar Concentrations
Gas Exchange is Maximally Effective in Normal Lung Units With Optimal Ventilation to Perfusion (V/Q) Relationships
Glucagon Stimulates Tissue Release of Glucose, Free Fatty Acids, and Ketoacids and Hepatic Uptake of Amino Acids
Hematocrit Greatly Influences the Viscosity of Blood
Heparin Administration
Histamine Release (%) from Dispersed Human Cutaneous Mast Cells after the Administration of Vancomycin
Illustration of Gate Theory for Pain Modulation in Spinal Dorsal Horn
Impact of Volatile Anesthetics on Contractility of Uterine Smooth Muscle Strips Studied in Vitro *p >
Inhalation of 75% Nitrous Oxide Rapidly Increases the Volume of a Pneumothorax (Open Symbols)
Inhaled Anesthetics Introduced into Clinical Practice Beginning With the Successful Use of Nitrous Oxide in 1844 for Dental Anesthesia Followed by Recognition of the Anesthetic Properties of Ether in 1846 and of Chloroform in 1847 Modern Anesthetics, Beginning With Halothane, Differ from Prior Anesthetics in Being Fluorinated and Nonflammable Inhaled Anesthetics Inhaled Anesthetics Introduced into Clinical Practice Beginning With the Successful Use of Nitrous Oxide in 1844 for Dental Anesthesia Followed by Recognition of the Anesthetic Properties of Ether in 1846 and of Chloroform in 1847
Inhaled Anesthetics Produce Drug-Specific and Dose-Dependent Increases in Paco2
Insulin Stimulates Tissue Uptake of Glucose and Amino Acids, Whereas Release of Fatty Acids is Inhibited
Interaction of Propofol With Alfentanil on the Concentration Required to Suppress Response to Intubation, Maintain Nonresponsiveness During Surgery, and Then Awaken from Anesthesia
