Anaphylaxis during anesthesia
• Definition
Anaphylaxis : rapid, generalized immunologically
mediated events involving an antigen-specific IgE-
mediated mechanism that occur after exposure toforeign substances in previously sensitized persons
Anaphylactoid reaction : not mediated by way of
the IgE antibody and prior exposure is not necessary
8/8/2019 Shock Uncut Version
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/shock-uncut-version 54/92
The incidence of anaphylaxis in GA is about
1:5000 to 1: 20000 and with a mortality rate
of up to 6%
Mechanism :1.Specific IgE cross-linked by allergen (drug)
2. Complement activation by specific IgG or IgM
binding to antigen (drug)
3. Direct complement activation by way of thealternate pathway
4. Direct activation of mast cells or basophils

Treatment (2)
• Initial therapy
1. Stop administration of antigen
2. Maintain airway with 100% oxygen
3. Discontinue all anesthetic agents4. Start intravascular volume expansion (2–4 L of
crystalloid with hypotension)
5. Administer epinephrine (5–10 μg intravenous
initial bolus with hypotension, titrated as needed;0.1–0.5 mg intravenously with cardiovascular collapse)
Treatment (3)
8/8/2019 Shock Uncut Version
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/shock-uncut-version 58/92
( )
Secondary treatment1. Antihistamines (0.5–1 mg/kg diphenhydramine)
2. Catecholamine infusions (starting doses: epinephrine,5–10 μg/min; norepinephrine, 5–10 μg/min, as aninfusion, titrated as needed)
3. Bronchodilators (inhaled albuterol or terbutaline withbronchospasm)
4. Corticosteroids (0.25–1 g hydrocortisone; alternating1–2 g methylprednisolone)
5. Sodium bicarbonate rarely needed (0.5–1 mEq/kg with
persistent hypotension and acidosis refractory tovolume repletion and epinephrine)
6. Airway evaluation (before extubation)

THE ROLE OF AN ANAESTHESIOLOGIST??
1) ANESTHESIA FOR A CRITICALLY ILL PATIENT
2) PERIOPERATIVE CONCERNS ABOUT SHOCK ANDCARDIAC EVENTS.......
DO WE NEED TO EDUCATE OURSELVES???
ENTRY OF CRITICALLY ILL PATIENTS
8/8/2019 Shock Uncut Version
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/shock-uncut-version 60/92
ENTRY OF CRITICALLY ILL PATIENTS.
1. The Emergency DepartmentVictims ofmajor trauma requiring immediate operativeintervention fall into two categories:
* Major hemorrhage of any source that cannot becontrolled by simple resuscitative measures
* Patients with traumatic intracranial hemorrhage* Patients presenting with acute general surgicalpathology of a nontraumatic nature
2. The general hospital* Inpatients may deteriorate during the course of Rx
3. The Intensive Care Unit* most likely to have all resuscitative measures in
place. Mechanical ventilation, invasive lines..
POLYTRAUMA
8/8/2019 Shock Uncut Version
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/shock-uncut-version 61/92
POLYTRAUMA
* leading cause of death under the age of 40 and thethird leading cause overall.* Many patients are intoxicated.* Injuries are often multi-system in nature.
Deaths from trauma follow a trimodal distribution.
* Immediate deaths- 1st few minutes – massiveHemorrhage or crush injuries, massive CNS traumaor (potentially avoidable) airway obstruction.
* Early deaths - hemorrhage or hypoxia, preventable.* Late deaths are chiefly due to sepsis and organ
failures.
Assessment of the trauma patient
8/8/2019 Shock Uncut Version
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/shock-uncut-version 62/92
* The Advanced Trauma Life Support system, as promoted bythe American College of Surgeons since 1979
* Assessment, diagnosis and initial treatment carried outsimultaneously.
* This is facilitated by a team approach with a “team leader”.* The patient needs to be examined thoroughly.* The first priority- detect and treat immediately life
threatening conditions , second priority-detect other injuries.* Radiological investigations* Relevant senior specialists should be involved .* The abdomen should be evaluated...Peritoneal lavage.* Administer appropriate antibiotics and tetanus toxoid.* All dislocations and fractures should be splinted and
reduced.
Airway and cervical spine protection
8/8/2019 Shock Uncut Version
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/shock-uncut-version 63/92
* The cervical spine - assumed to be at risk andprotected from further damage , hard cervical collarmandatory.
* Unless immediate intubation is required, the cervicalspine should be assessed by radiological inv.
* If intubation is required, preoxygenation followed by oral intubation with manual in-line stabilization of the
cervical spine by an assistant.* Neurological signs should be documented before
intubation, if possible.* If the patient cannot be intubated then a surgical
airway should be created.
Breathing/ventilation
8/8/2019 Shock Uncut Version
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/shock-uncut-version 64/92
Breathing/ventilation* High-flow O2.* Clinically obvious pneumothoraces to be drained.* low threshold for immediate tracheal intubation –
even before the result of arterial blood gases.* Indications for immediate intubation and ventilation
-gross respiratory distress, obvious hypoventilationand severe shock.
Circulation* External hemorrhage to be controlled.* Large bore catheters inserted and volume infused.
* Blood should be sent for blood gases andcrossmatching.
Patient transfer to and from the OR
8/8/2019 Shock Uncut Version
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/shock-uncut-version 65/92
* The patient’s airway must be adequately secured.
* Ventilation must be adequate, either spontaneous ormechanical. Manual ventilation unpredictable andunreliable.* Lifting of patients on and off stretchers is a cause of inadvertant extubation.
* Blood pressure must be maintained with a combinationof fluids and inotropic agents.* Patient monitoring must be appropriate to ensure safetransfer.* Consideration should be given to pharmacologicalsedation and muscle relaxation.* Communication between transferring and receivingstaff .
* Planning to minimize delays and waiting in ORreception areas
8/8/2019 Shock Uncut Version
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/shock-uncut-version 66/92
reception areas. .* Appropriate equipment required during the transfer-
portable ventilator,full oxygen cylinder,equipment for reintubation,drugs – e.g. sedation, paralysis, cardiac resuscitation,self-inflating bag or equivalentbattery-powered syringe pumps if required.
* There is no excuse for battery-powered equipmentbecoming exhausted, oxygen cylinders emptying ordrug syringes running out.

Patient positioning
8/8/2019 Shock Uncut Version
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/shock-uncut-version 69/92
* Lines, tubes and bags- Every piece of equipment insertedinto the patient is there for a reason.
* Patients may not have had a full primaryand secondary survey.. the cervical spine should stay fixed* Patient should not be moved without a formal log-rollingtechnique being used.* Edematous , weakened skin prone to tearing, bruising andvulnerable to pressure injury.
Perioperative hypothermia
8/8/2019 Shock Uncut Version
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/shock-uncut-version 70/92
* Acute blood loss .* Central mechanisms of thermoregulation disrupted.
* reduced metabolic rate associated with anesthesia,* vasodilation under anesthesia,* abolished subclinical shivering,* exposure,* cold fluids used for skin preparation ,
* inadequately warmed IV fluids.
Adverse effects of perioperative hypothermia* Delayed awakening.* Organ function depressed H
* Hemodynamic instability during rewarming** Oxygen consumption* Wound infection* Coagulopathy .* Myocardial ischemia
Prevention of hypothermia
* Ci l il i i h b di id b b
8/8/2019 Shock Uncut Version
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/shock-uncut-version 71/92
* Circle system ventilation with carbon dioxide absorberand heat and moisture exchanger.
* Fluid warmer for all intravenous fluids.* Warmed patient mattress.* Insulation of all areas of the patient .* Use of a forced air warming system.* Use of heat-retaining insulating materials less effective
VENTILLATION AND AIRWAY MANAGEMENT
* Si ifi t t l i j
8/8/2019 Shock Uncut Version
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/shock-uncut-version 72/92
* Significant acute lung injury.* Shallow breathing can increase PVR leading to hypoxia
and acidosis* Increased work of breathing -- myocardial ischemia* In severe shock, the reduced blood flow to the
diaphragm coupled with the increasedminute volumeand respiratory energy expenditure causes respiratory
failure-- Controlled ventilation.** Lung protective strategies (e.g. PEEP, low tidal
volumes, low peak and plateau airway pressures,permissive hypercapnia)
* Decreased venous return,cardiac output
* Deteriorationat the end of surgery- extubation vselective ventillation

3. Halothane – rarely used nowadays.4. Isoflurane – impressive safety profile, Hypotension
chiefly by vasodilation.5. Desflurane - specialized delivery systems required.Very short-acting.6. Nitrous oxide (N2O) – due to low blood gas solubility
has very fast uptake and onset.Second gas effect
Practical conduct of anesthesia* Conventional assessments of fitness not helpful.* Many of these patients require ongoing resuscitation
8/8/2019 Shock Uncut Version
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/shock-uncut-version 76/92
* Many of these patients require ongoing resuscitation.The ABC system is widely followed:
A =airway including cervical spine protection,B =breathing,C =circulation.
* inotropes and vasopressors* Intraoperative control of blood sugar .
* Portable monitors with full invasive monitoring* Ruptured aneurysms and other cases of massive
hemorrhage should be “prepped” on the table prior toinduction.
* Communication and timing with theater staff,
surgeons, porters, etc., to eliminate delays inpotentially difficult circumstances and environments.

Full monitoring according to local and national protocols
In addition:Indwelling arterial line for:* beat-to-beat monitoring of blood pressure,* sampling of blood for blood gas measurement,* control of inotrope and vasopressor infusions,
Central venous catheter for:* measurement of filling pressure, i.e. preload of theright ventricle,* guide to fluid requirements, and
* infusion of irritant drugs, e.g. inotropes, vasopressorsand IV nutrition.
End points of fluid therapy
Reduction in tachycardia and improvement in blood
8/8/2019 Shock Uncut Version
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/shock-uncut-version 78/92
Reduction in tachycardia and improvement in bloodpressure and urine volumes are important, albeit crude
Both CVP and PCWP have limitations.
More recent, dynamic approaches:* Central venous saturation. Saturation of the central
venous blood (ScvO2) .* Pulse pressure variation (PPV).* Additionally and importantly, it is suggested that if there is no PPV there will be no increase in CO no matterhow much fluid is given (in the patient undergoing IPPV)
The role of the anesthetist in outcomes
* Obvious clinical errors
8/8/2019 Shock Uncut Version
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/shock-uncut-version 79/92
Obvious clinical errors.* Choice of anesthetic agents.
* Hemodynamic control* Ischemia. Volatile agents (and probably opiates) in
Preconditioning.

remains the most mysterious cause of morbidity
and mortality
Its existence would be controversial
has been well documented as an occurrence in
younger otherwise healthy patients undergoing avariety of clinical procedures.
Clinically, the only unifying feature of thissyndrome is the degree of surprise among thecaregivers of these patients.

Prevalence of cardiac arrest at 1.8 per 10,000patients (neuraxial), with more arrests occurring in
patients with spinal anesthesia versus epidural (2.9vs. 0.9 per 10,000 ;P = 0.041)(Anesth Analg 2005;100:855-865).
In 46% (12/46) of the cases cardiac arrest wasassociated with recurrent specific surgical events(cementing of joint components, spermatic cordmanipulation, manipulation of a broken femur, andrupture of amniotic membranes).
In 54% (14/26), the anesthetic technique, i.e.
Subarachnoid block contributed directly to thearrest.
