Q1 · Malignant Hyperthermia

NEET PGHard

A patient develops a rapidly rising temperature, muscle rigidity, tachycardia, and rising end-tidal CO2 after receiving suxamethonium and a volatile agent. The diagnosis and specific treatment are?

Explanation

Malignant hyperthermia is a rare inherited reaction to volatile agents and suxamethonium, causing a hypermetabolic crisis with rising CO2, temperature, rigidity, and tachycardia. The specific treatment is dantrolene, plus stopping triggers, cooling, and supportive care.

Q2 · Anaphylaxis

NEET PGMedium

The first-line drug for anaphylaxis under anaesthesia, with hypotension, bronchospasm, and rash after a drug, is?

Explanation

Adrenaline is the first-line, life-saving treatment for anaphylaxis, counteracting vasodilation and bronchospasm. Stopping the trigger, giving oxygen and IV fluids, and adjunct steroids and antihistamines follow. Muscle relaxants and antibiotics are common triggers during anaesthesia.

Q3 · Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting

Easy

Which class of drug is commonly used to prevent postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV)?

Explanation

5-HT3 antagonists such as ondansetron are widely used for preventing and treating PONV, often combined with dexamethasone. Identifying high-risk patients, for example with the Apfel score, guides prophylaxis.

Q4 · Suxamethonium Apnoea

Hard

Prolonged paralysis after suxamethonium, due to an inherited deficiency of the enzyme that normally breaks it down, is called?

Explanation

Suxamethonium apnoea results from a genetic deficiency or abnormality of plasma pseudocholinesterase (butyrylcholinesterase), so suxamethonium is metabolised slowly, causing prolonged paralysis. Management is continued ventilation and sedation until the block wears off.

Q5 · Intraoperative Bronchospasm

Medium

Intraoperative bronchospasm, with wheeze, rising airway pressures, and falling saturation, is initially treated with?

Explanation

Intraoperative bronchospasm is managed with 100% oxygen, deepening anaesthesia — volatile agents are bronchodilators — and bronchodilators such as salbutamol; adrenaline is used if severe or anaphylactic. The trigger, such as light anaesthesia or a drug, should be addressed.

Answer first, then read the explanation even on the ones you got right — the reasoning is where Complications and Emergencies marks are actually won, and it is what separates a recalled fact from a question you can solve in a new form. Once the Easy set feels comfortable, filter to Hard to find the gaps Anaesthesia examiners keep returning to.
