Which would be the most appropriate breathing circuit to use in a 38kg dog?

Please select an option Incorrect. The Co-axial Bain breathing circuit is used in patients between 8-15 kg so it would be uneconomical and inappropriate in this patient. The circle breathing circuit is the only one which would be appropriate in a patient over 35kg. WikiVet Article: Breathing circuits. Correct! The circle breathing circuit is the only one which would be appropriate in a patient over 35kg. WikiVet Article: Breathing circuits. Incorrect. The parallel lack breathing circuit is used in patients between 10-35kg so it would be inappropriate in this patient. The circle breathing circuit is the only one which would be appropriate in a patient over 35kg. WikiVet Article: Breathing circuits. Incorrect. The T-piece breathing circuit is used in patients under 10kg so it would be inappropriate in this patient. The circle breathing circuit is the only one which would be appropriate in a patient over 35kg. WikiVet Article: Breathing circuits. Incorrect. The Magill breathing circuit is used in patients between 10-35kg so it would be inappropriate in this patient. The circle breathing circuit is the only one which would be appropriate in a patient over 35kg. WikiVet Article: Breathing circuits.

Calculate, in litres,the fresh gas flow rate for a 20kg dog with a respiratory rate of 10 bpm, using a Magill breathing circuit.

Please select an option Incorrect. Did you calculate the tidal volume by using weight multiplied by 15mls? Remember, if the animal weighs more than 10kg, tidal volume is calculated by multiplying the weight by 10mls. Fresh gas flow is calculated by the formula: tidal volume (weight x 10 - 15mls) x respiratory rate x circuit factor. So for this patient the tidal volume is 20kg x 10mls (use this lower figure if the patient weighs more than 10kg) = 200mls. The circuit factor of a Magill is 1 - 1.5, so the fresh gas flow is 200 x 10 (respiratory rate) x 1 - 1.5 = 2 - 3 litres. WikiVet Article: Calculating fresh gas flow. Incorrect. Did you use a circuit factor of 2.5 - 3? Remember the circuit factor of a Magill is 1 - 1.5. Fresh gas flow is calculated by the formula: tidal volume (weight x 10 - 15mls) x respiratory rate x circuit factor. So for this patient the tidal volume is 20kg x 10mls (use this lower figure if the patient weighs more than 10kg) = 200mls. The circuit factor of a Magill is 1 - 1.5, so the fresh gas flow is 200 x 10 (respiratory rate) x 1 - 1.5 = 2 - 3 litres. WikiVet Article: Calculating fresh gas flow. Incorrect. Did you use the corrrect respiratory rate? Fresh gas flow is calculated by the formula: tidal volume (weight x 10 - 15mls) x respiratory rate x circuit factor. So for this patient the tidal volume is 20kg x 10mls (use this lower figure if the patient weighs more than 10kg) = 200mls. The circuit factor of a Magill is 1 - 1.5, so the fresh gas flow is 200 x 10 (respiratory rate) x 1 - 1.5 = 2 - 3 litres. WikiVet Article: Calculating fresh gas flow. Incorrect. Did you calculate the tidal volume by using weight multiplied by 15mls and did you use a circuit factor of 2.5 - 3? Remember, if the animal weighs more than 10kg, tidal volume is calculated by multiplying the weight by 10mls and also the circuit factor of a Magill is 1 - 1.5. Also remember that a small animal anaesthetic machine delivers a maximum fresh gas flow of 8 litres so the calculated flow rate would be unachievable. Fresh gas flow is calculated by the formula: tidal volume (weight x 10 - 15mls) x respiratory rate x circuit factor. So for this patient the tidal volume is 20kg x 10mls (use this lower figure if the patient weighs more than 10kg) = 200mls. The circuit factor of a Magill is 1 - 1.5, so the fresh gas flow is 200 x 10 (respiratory rate) x 1 - 1.5 = 2 - 3 litres. WikiVet Article: Calculating fresh gas flow. Correct!

Calculate, in litres,the fresh gas flow rate for a 5kg dog with a respiratory rate of 16 bpm, using a T-piece breathing circuit.

Please select an option Incorrect. Did you calculate the tidal volume correctly? Remember to multiply the dogs weight by 15mls. Fresh gas flow is calculated by the formula: tidal volume (weight x 10 - 15mls) x respiratory rate x circuit factor. So for this patient the tidal volume is 5kg x 15mls (use this higher figure if the patient weighs less than 10kg) = 75mls. The circuit factor of a T-piece is 2.5 - 3, so the fresh gas flow is 75 x 16 (respiratory rate) x 2.5 - 3 = 3 - 3.2 litres. WikiVet Article: Calculating fresh gas flow. Incorrect. Did you use a circuit factor of 1 - 1.5? Remember the circuit factor of a T-piece is 2.5 - 3. Fresh gas flow is calculated by the formula: tidal volume (weight x 10 - 15mls) x respiratory rate x circuit factor. So for this patient the tidal volume is 5kg x 15mls (use this higher figure if the patient weighs less than 10kg) = 75mls.

Prolonged exposure to which inhalational anaesthetic agent can lead to bone marrow suppression via vitamin B12 dependent enzyme inactivation?

Please select an option Incorrect. Isoflurane does not cause vitamin B12 dependent inactivation. Prolonged exposure to nitrous oxide can cause vitamin B12 dependent enzyme inactivation thereby causing bone marrow suppression. Since prolonged exposure means weeks to months, this is more relevant to the practitioner who may experience prolonged and repeated exposure than to the patient, and necessitates efficient scavenging and regular equipment checks Use of nitrous oxide should be avoided in animals with severe anaemia because of the reduced oxygen carrying capacity of the blood.WikiVet Article: Nitrous oxide.
