- Risk vs benefits of performing general anesthesia on patients with AKI need to be assessed (poor prognosis, 50-60%)
- A balanced anaesthetic protocol should be chosen to reduce the required dose of each individual agent and minimize the potential side effects.

Teaching goals
- The liver is important as it is involved in the production of glucose,albumin,andcoagulation factors.
- The liver metabolizes anesthetic drugs and this can impact anesthetic recovery.
- Glucose is necessary for energy production,brain function and perioepartive stability.
- Anesthetic drugs that are used for patients with liver disease should be short-acting, reversible, or produce minimal cardiovascular and respiratory depression.
Teaching goals

- Hypoxia is a condition where either all (generalized hypoxia) or a specific part of the body (regional hypoxemia) does not receive or is not able to use adequate oxygen for aerobic metabolism.
- Hypoxemia is a reduction in the concentration of oxygen in arterial blood.
- A PaO2 of <80 mmHg is strictly classed as hypoxaemia, but some classify mild hypoxaemia as PaO2 80–90 mmHg; moderate as 60–80 mmHg; and severe as <60 mmHg.
