Study Notes
Anesthesia Phases
- The phase characterized by the prevention of awareness of and response to pain is known as Analgesia.
Pre-Anesthetics
- The primary aim of using pre-anesthetics is to reduce anxiety and make patients comfortable before anesthesia.
Anesthetic Agents and Analgesia
- The route of administration associated with the classification of anesthetic agents and analgesia is oral, intramuscular, intravenous, or inhalation.
Induction Agents
- The characteristic feature of induction agents used in anesthesia is that they have a rapid onset of action and short duration.
Anticholinergic Agents
- The main function of anticholinergic agents used in anesthesia is to reduce salivation, bronchial secretions, and intraocular pressure.
Induction of Anesthesia
- The common route for the induction of anesthesia is intravenous.
Chemical Restraint
- The agent commonly used to induce calmness for chemical restraint is midazolam.
Neuromuscular Blockers
- The principal effect of Neuromuscular Blockers is to relax skeletal muscles.
Anticholinergic Effects
- Anticholinergic agents are used to decrease salivation, GIT motility, and tear production, while increasing heart rate.
Anti-Emetic Agents
- The kind of drugs recommended by practitioners because they produce less nausea and vomiting in patients are 5-HT3 antagonists.
