ALTERED CONSCIOUSNESS, PART II
CVA, DIFF DX, SEIZURES
Cerebrovascular Accident (CVA)
CVA is a focal neurological disorder caused by destruction of brain substance as a
result of intra cerebral hemorrhage, thrombosis, embolism or vascular insufficiency.
CVA
Apoplexy
Stroke
Brain Attack
CVA - Types
Lacunar
TIA
Occlusive (Ischemic)
Hemorrhagic
CVA - Lacunar Infarcts
<5mm diameter
poorly controlled HTN, DM
deep arterial branches – cerebrum - brain stem
good prognosis
4-6 weeks resolution
CVA - TIA
brief episodes of ischemia
incidence:1/1000 elderly
lasts < 24hours
10% major CVA in 2 weeks
Ischemic Stroke - Cerebral Infarction
75% of all stroke patients
male:female ratio 2:1
luminal reduction 85%
20% in sleep
Ischemic stroke - Etiology
embolic clot
carotid stenosis
atrial fibrillation
mitral stenosis (RHD)
Dental Management Post CVA
6 months: emergency Rx only
stress reduction
short appointments
pain control
psychosedation
Anticoagulant Management
Rx 2 1/2 X PT
INR, 4-TXA-Amicar
Management Acute CVA Dental Office
call EMS
position patient
BLS - oxygen
monitor V.S.
supportive care
Seizures
A paroxysmal disorder of central CNS function characterized by an attack involving
changes in the state of consciousness, motor activity, or sensory phenomena; a
seizure is sudden in onset and usually of brief duration.
not a disease - a symptom
attacks - brief
convulsions
abnormal behavior
3-5% population, 1 seizure
0.5% have seizures
Etiology - Primary Seizures
65% idiopathic/genetic
family 3-5% incidence
6/10 X expected rate
Etiology - Secondary Seizures
35% acquired - recurrent
head trauma
perinatal injuries
congenital abnormalities
tumors, space occupying lesions
vascular disease
degenerative disorders
infectious diseases
metabolic/toxic disorders
Ischemic Stroke
infarction core dies in five minutes
ischemic penumbra surrounds core
"idling cells" survive 3 hours
Seizures - Dental Office -Etiology
epileptic seizure
Hypoglycemia (insulin)
vasovagal syncope (hypoxia)
L.A. overdose
Hemorrhagic Stroke
etiology:HTN - aneurysm
25% of total strokes
intracerebral, vertibrobasilar, subarachnoid
high mortality rate
>50 years
Seizure Types - Partial Seizures
one hemisphere – simple - (limb jerks)
both hemispheres – complex (facial gestures)
no LOC
reoriented rapidly (1 minute

three hour window
head CT without contrast
TPA thrombolytic for ischemic stroke
50% post CVA die AMI or heart failure

clonic-tonic movements cease
normal respiration
amnesia deep sleep
urinary, bowel incontinence
consciousness gradually returns - 2 hours
Status Epilepticus
life threatening
recurrent GTCS >5minutes
3-23% mortality

ADVERSE DRUG REACTIONS (ADR’s)
Definition: Any response to a drug that is noxious (harmful), unintended and that
occurs at doses used in man for purposes of prophylaxis, diagnosis, or therapy but
specifically excludes failure to accomplish the intended purpose of the drug.
GENERAL PRINCIPLES OF TOXICOLOGY
No drug ever exerts a single action.
No clinically useful drug is entirely devoid of toxicity.
Potential toxicity of a drug rests in the hands of the user.
Classification of Adverse Drug Reactions
Toxicity resulting from direct extension of pharmacologic effects
Side effects
Abnormal dosage (overdose)
Local toxic effects
Toxicity resulting from altered recipient (patient)
Presence of pathology
Emotional disturbances
Genetic aberrations (idiosyncrasy)
Teratogenicity
Drug-drug interactions
Toxicity resulting from drug allergy

DRUG OVERDOSE REACTIONS
Absolute overdose
Relative overdose
LOCAL ANESTHETIC OVERDOSE / TOXICITY REACTIONS
CAUSES OF HIGH BLOOD LEVELS OF LOCAL ANESTHETICS
Biotransformation of the drug is unusually slow
Drug is slowly eliminated from the body through the kidneys
Total dose of local anesthetic administered is too large
Absorption of local anesthetic from the injection site is unusually rapid
Local anesthetic is inadvertently administered intravascularly
Predisposing Factors
Patient Factors
Age (<6 & >65)
Body wt. – ( body wt.  risk)
Presence of pathology
Liver dz.
CHF
Pulmonary dz. ( CV toxicity)
Hypoxia
Acidosis Genetic (atypical plasma cholinesterase def.)
Mental attitude (anxiety  seizure threshold)
Sex (slight  risk during pregnancy)
Drug Factors
Vasoactivity of drug (vasodilation increases risk)
Dose of drug
Route of administration
Rate of injection
Vascularity of injection site
Presence of vasoconstrictor
Related to high blood levels of local anesthetic
Lidocaine / Mepivacaine
CNS effects at 5 g /ml
Cardiotoxic effects at 20g/ml
Bupivacaine
CNS effects at 1-2g/ml
Cardiotoxic effects 1-2 g/ml
Rate of clearance in decreasing order is:
Prilocaine>etidocaine>lidocaine>mepivacaine &
ropivacaine>bupivacaine
Clinical manifestations of local anesthetic overdose:
Low to moderate overdose levels
Signs
Confusion
Talkativeness
Apprehension
Excitedness
Slurred speech
Generalized stutter
Muscle twitching & tremor

CONCLUSION
Be prepared for emergencies
Individualize the drug dosage
Recognize and expect adverse drug effects
Medical History Questions Pertinent to Drug Allergy
What drug was used? (NOVOCAIN)
What amount of drug was used? (dose-related or dose-independent)
Did the drug contain vasoconstrictor or preservative (paraben)?
What other medications were being taken at the time of the reaction?
What position was the patient in?
How did the reaction manifest itself?
What treatment was given? (especially what kind of drugs were used?)
Was a physician required?
Was the patient hospitalized?
Name, address & phone/fax number of treating physician?
How about testing the patient with a small dose first?
DON’T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT!
Alternatives to Dental Drugs With High Allergic Potential
Acetaminophen
Synthetic opioid analgesics (e.g., meperidine, pentazocine)
Clarithromycin
Clindamycin
Diphenhydramine (for local anesthesia)
Options for emergency care of “allergic” patient
Consultation (most practical and best way, manage pain w/o local anesthetic)
General anesthesia (high risk high $)
Antihistamine
Allergic Skin Reactions
Usual Sequence of Anaphylactic Allergic Reactions
Skin > Eyes, Nose > Respiratory > Cardiovascular > GI Tract
Pathophysiology of Immediate Allergic Reactions
Antigen-induced stimulation of IgE antibodies (“sensitizing” dose)
(B lymphocytes, mature plasma cells)
Latent period for sensitization of mast cells & basophils
Re-exposure to antigen (“challenge” dose)
Properties of Immunoglobulins
Respiratory Allergic Reactions
Defense Mechanisms
Anatomic barriers (skin, mucosa)
Mobilization of phagocytic blood cells
Production of enzymes
IgA (external secretions)
3 Possible Outcomes of Antigen-Antibody Reactions
1. Production of additional antibodies with neutralization of antigen
(beneficial outcome)
2. Antigen-antibody complex precipitates & occludes blood vessels
(Arthus Reaction) (pathologic outcome)
3. Antigen-antibody complex activates mediators, results in anaphylaxis
(pathologic outcome)
Mediators of Anaphylaxis
Allergic Cardiovascular Reactions
Histamine
Widely distributed (“shock organs”)
Stored in mast cells & basophils
Produces capillary dilation & leakage with edema
Relaxes vascular smooth muscle
Constricts bronchiolar smooth muscle
Stimulates secretions (respiratory, GI)
Slow-Reacting Substance of Anaphylaxis (SRS-A)
Produced by antigen-IgE-mast cell interaction
Actually a mixture of leukotrienes
Produces a slow-onset powerful bronchial constriction
Potentiates actions of histamine
Not susceptible to antihistamine block
Other Anaphylactic Factors
Eosinophilic chemotactic factor (eosinophils release enzymes)
High MW neutrophil chemotactic factor
Basophil kallikreins, bradykinin (vasodilation, edema, pain)
Prostaglandins (PGD2, PGF2, contract)
Platelet activating factor
Drugs Used in Management of Allergic Reactions
100% oxygen (required by Texas law)
Epinephrine (1:1,000 i.m. or subcu, 1:10,000 i.v.)
Antihistamines (diphenhydramine, chlorpheniramine, oral or i.m.)
Corticosteroids (i.m. or i.v.)
Other bronchodilators (aminophylline)
Management of Delayed-Onset Skin Reaction
Management of Respiratory Allergic Reaction
Management of Rapid-Onset Allergic Skin Reaction
Management of Laryngeal Edema
Note: definitive care includes epinephrine
Management of Generalized Anaphylaxis (signs & symptoms of allergy present)
Note: definitive care includes epinephrine & oxygen
Diagnostic Features of Allergy
Signs/symptoms develop after drug administration
Prior administration of drug necessary
Usually presents as skin reaction
Nervousness not commonly seen
Loss of consciousness with anaphylaxis
Seizures rarely occur (usually due to hypoxia)
Respiratory symptoms common & represent severe reactions
HR elevated, pulse weak & thready
Blood pressure significantly depressed
REMEMBER:
The more rapid the onset of the allergic reaction, the more severe it is likely to be!
Management of Generalized Anaphylaxis (no signs/symptoms of allergy)
Note: definitive care DOES NOT include epinephrine

Tracheal Intubation
Advantages
Protects airway from aspiration of foreign material
Facilitates ventilation and oxygenation
Facilitates suctioning of trachea and bronchi
Provides route for drug administration
Prevents gastric inflation if used with cuff
Allows faster chest compressions
Indications
Inability to ventilate the unconscious patient
After insertion of pharyngeal airway
Inability of patient to protect own airway (coma, areflexia, or cardiac arrest)
Need for prolonged mechanical ventilation
Recommendations
Intubate as soon as possible after ventilation and oxygenation in cardiac arrest
Intubation should be done by most experienced person
Do not take longer than 30 seconds per attempt
Auscultate the thorax and epigastrium after intubation
Complications
Trauma—teeth, lips, tongue, mucosa, vocal cords, trachea
Esophageal intubation
Vomiting and aspiration
Hypertension and arrhythmias
Esophageal-Tracheal Combitube
A = esophageal obturator; ventilation into trachea through side openings = B
C = tracheal tube; ventilation through open end if proximal end inserted in trachea
D = pharyngeal cuff; inflated through catheter = E
F = esophageal cuff; inflated through catheter = G
H = teeth marker; blindly insert Combitube until marker is at level of teeth
Esophageal-Tracheal Combitube Inserted in Esophagus
A = esophageal obturator; ventilation into trachea through side openings = B
D = pharyngeal cuff (inflated)
F = inflated esophageal/tracheal cuff
H = teeth markers; insert until marker lines at level of teeth
Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA)
The LMA is an adjunctive airway that consists of
a tube with a cuffed mask-like projection at distal end.
LMA Introduced Through Mouth Into Pharynx
Once the LMA is in position, a clear, secure airway is present.
