M.C. nerve used for monitoring during anaesthesia
Ans. is 'a' i.e. Ulnar nerve Most common nerve used for monitoring during anaesthesia is ulnar nerve.Ulnar nerve supplies adductor pollicis, and this muscle is most commonly observed during perioperative period.Adductor pollicis muscle is monitored for neuromuscular blockade. If adductor pollicis is showing no activity it means laryngeal muscles have already been blocked and intubation can be performed. At the reversal, if there is activity in adductor pollicis it means that diaphragmatic activity has already returned and the patient will be able to maintain tidal volume even after extubation.Also knowThe muscle to show earliest reversal is orbicularis oculi, supplied by the facial nerve.Common peroneal nerve can also be used for monitoring.

Pityriasis versicolor are tinea versicolor is a superficial fungal infection caused by dimorphic fungi belonging to genus Malassezia. M.globosa and M.furfur are two main species causing it. Most common site affected is upper trunk, but can also affect face and flexural areas. Clinical manifustations are in te form of hypo or hypo pigmented macules with fine, branni scales. Scrapping the surface accentuate the scarring known as scratch sign or coup d'ongle sign or besniers sign Woodslamp-golden yellow fluorescense KOH-Both yeast and hyphal forms giving Spaghetti and meat ball appearance.

The pin index code of nitrous oxide is
The Pin Index Safety System, or PISS, is a means of connecting high-pressure cylinders containing medical gases to a regulator or other utilization equipment. It uses geometric features on the valve and yoke to prevent mistaken use of the wrong gas. This system is widely used worldwide for anesthesia machines, poable oxygen administration sets, and inflation gases used in surgery. Cylinders attach to the machine hanger-yoke assemblies that utilize a pin index safety system to prevent accidental connection of a wrong gas cylinder. The yoke assembly includes index pins, a washer, a gas filter, and a check valve that prevents retrograde gas flow. PIN INDICES OF COMMONLY USED GASES: O2: 2,5 N2O: 3,5 Mixture of O2 and N2O (50% / 50%), commonly called Entonox: 7 (a single pin, located in the center) Air: 1,5 Mixtures of CO2 and O2 with more than 7% CO2: 1,6 Mixtures of CO2 and O2 with less than 7% CO2: 2,6 He: No pin Mixtures of O2 and He with less than 80% He, commonly called Heliox: 2,4 Mixtures of O2 and He with more than 80% He: 4-6 Cyclopropane: 3,6 Ethylene: 1,3 Nitrogen: 1,4 Ref: Miller's anesthesia 8th edition Ref: Morgan & Mikhail's clinical anesthesiology 6e

Thus, the agent with pKa value away from physiological pH will have more concentration of ionized formChloroprocaine has highest pKa value, hence maximum ionized form at physiological pH.(Refer: Morgan and Mikhail's Clinical Anaesthesiology, 5th edition, pg no.268-270)

Most common local anaesthetic used for intravenous regional anesthesia (Bier block).
Lidocaine is the most - frequently selected amide local anesthetic for producing this type of regional anesthesia. Lidocaine has been the drug used most frequently for intravenous regional anesthesia. Prilocaine, mepivacaine, chloroprocaine, procaine and etidocaine have also been used successfully. Intravenous regional anesthesia or Bier's block involves the intravenous administration of a local anesthetic into a tourniquet- occluded limb. It is used to provide anesthesia for sho surgical procedures (<90 minutes) on the limbs. Note : Bupivacaine and its congeners is not used for Biers block. It is the most cardiotoxic local anesthetic. Accidental early deflation of the tourniquet can lead to massive systemic doses of bupivacaine resulting in cardiac arrhythmias and cardiovascular collapse.

Commonest complication of celiac plexus block is
Celiac plexus is a sympathetic ganglion thus blocking it will always cause hypotension. The celiac plexus is the largest plexus of the sympathetic nervous system. It contains preganglionic sympathetic fibers from greater and lesser splanchnic nerves (emerge from the thoracic sympathetic ganglia, T5 to T12) as well as postganglionic sympathetic and preganglionic parasympathetic fibers. It provides sensory innervation and sympathetic outflow to stomach, liver, spleen, pancreas, kidney and GI tract up to splenic flexure. Plexus is located at the level of T12-L2 (usually L1) and lies anterior to aoa in the retroperitoneal space. Indications Most common indication is treatment of pain caused by pancreatic cancer. Occasionally used in the treatment of pain from chronic pancreatitis (controversial). Can be used for pain from other GI malignancies from LES to splenic flexure, as well as liver, spleen and kidneys. Complications Ohostatic hypotension (most common, can be minimized with fluid hydration) and diarrhea (secondary to blockade of sympathetic fibers). Less common complications include paraplegia (from damage to aery of Adamkiewicz), local anesthetic toxicity, spinal or epidural injection, aoic or vena cava puncture and bleeding, retroperitoeneal hemorrhage, visceral organ injury, and pneumothorax (if needle is placed too cephalad) Anatomical Considerations: preganglionic SNS (greater/lesser splanchnic nerves), postganglionic SNS, preganglionic PNS, sensory Indications: pancreatic cancer (common); sometimes pancreatitis (controversial) Common Side Effects: ohostatic hypotension, diarrhea Rare Side Effects: paraplegia, LA toxicity, spinal/epidural injection, aoic or vena cava puncture, retroperitoeneal hemorrhage, visceral organ injury, pneumothorax

Primary mechanism responsible for cerebral protection effect of thiopentone is
C i.e. Decreased (lowered) cerebn metabolism Barbiturates (thiopental), primarily decreases cerebral metabolismQ resulting in a dose related depression of cevebral metabolic oxygen consumption (CMR02).Reduced CMRO2 causes progressive slowing of EEG, a reduction in rate of ATP consumption, cerebral vasoconstriction (reducing cerebral blood flow and intracranial tension) and protection from incomplete cerebral ischemiaQ. Thiopentone Sodium* Thiopentone is a yellow coloured powder used as 2.5 % solution at 5 mg/kg dose for smooth induction. It is ultrasho actingQ due to rapid redistributionQ.

Anaesthesia of choice for manual removal of placenta
A i.e. GA Obstetric Anesthesia N20 can be given in Early pregnancy Anesthesia is dangerous in all three trimesters but comparatively 2" trimester is safestQ. Supine Hypotensive Syndrome : In late pregnancy (IIIrd Trim) circulatory depression occurs due to diminished venous return because of pressure of gravid uterus over inferior venacava in supine position.Q Best uterine relaxant is halothane, so uterine tetanic contractions are most rapidly treated by halothane.Q M.C. cause of death during G.A. in obstetrics is Mendelson's syndromeQ i.e. Aspiration of gastric content during anesthesia. On X-Ray, butterfly motteling in hilar area is seen. This is prevented by: - Empty stomach and H2 blockers - Esophageal Intubation - Secillik's maneuver i.e. backward pressure on cailage.Q Contraindications - Gallimanie is C/I as it crosses placenta. - Morphine is C/I until delivery as it causes respiratory depression in mother and baby. For respiratory depression of morphine or pathidine. Naloxane 0.01 mg/Kg is given through umbilical vein.

The following anaesthetic drug causes pain on intravenous administration
Induction of anesthesia with propofol is often associated with pain on injection, apnea, hypotension, and, rarely, thrombophlebitis of the vein into which propofol is injected. Pain on injection is reduced by using a large vein, avoiding veins in the dorsum of the hand, and adding lidocaine to the propofol solution or changing the propofol formulation. Multiple other drugs and distraction techniques have been investigated to reduce the pain on injection of propofol. Pretreatment with a small dose of propofol, opiates, nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs, ketamine, esmolol or metoprolol, magnesium, a flash of light, a clonidine-ephedrine combination, dexamethasone, and metoclopramide all have been tested with variable efficacy.

Stage I (stage of analgesia or disorientation) Stage II (stage of excitement or delirium) Stage III (stage of surgical anesthesia) plane I to IV Stage IV: from stoppage of respiration till death Stage III (stage of surgical anesthesia): from onset of automatic respiration to respiratory paralysis. It is divided into four planes: Plane I - from onset of automatic respiration to cessation of eyeball movements Plane II - from cessation of eyeball movements to beginning of paralysis of intercostal muscles Plane III - from beginning to completion of intercostal muscle paralysis. Plane IV - from complete intercostal paralysis to diaphragmatic paralysis Ref: Miller's anesthesia 8th edition Ref: Morgan & Mikhail's clinical anesthesiology 6e.
