Marvin Deloitte, a 19 year-old male, received in intravenous peripheral nerve block (PNB/Bier block) for an ORIF of about ankle fracture. The anesthesia provider injected a a distal dorsal vein of Marvin's right foot with 2% lidocaine, after placing a single cuffed pneumatic tourniquet circumferentially around Marvins upper thigh. The surgeon looked through the OR window to check on anesthesia progress as he scrubbed at the sink outside of the OR. The circulating nurse had the leg elevated and ...

PCE Studying Questions with Complete Solutions Neurapraxia - ANSWER Injury to nerve that causes a transient loss of function (conduction block ischemia); nerve dysfunction may be rapidly reversed or persist a few weeks, e.g., compression. Axonotmesis - ANSWER Injury to nerve interrupting the axon and causing loss of function and Wallerian degeneration distal to the lesion; with no disruption of the endoneurium, regeneration is possible, e.g., crush injury. Neuro...

What is malignant hyperthermia (MHS)? - This is a complex genetic disorder of skeletal muscle typically manifesting clinically as a hypermetabolic crisis when a susceptible individual receives a halogenated inhalational anesthetic agent or succinylcholine -They have skeletal muscle receptor abnormalities that allow excessive myoplasmic calcium to accumulate in the presence of certain anesthetic triggering agents. This excessive Ca lead to sustained muscle contraction How is malignant hyper...
