Hypersensitivity to alfentanil or other opioids, respiratory depression, or severe asthma, paralytic ileus.

Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, dizziness, and respiratory depression.

Central Nervous System effects include sedation and confusion.

Cardiovascular effects include hypotension and bradycardia.

Respiratory depression and apnea are possible adverse effects.

Monitor respiratory rate, blood pressure and O2 sat during alfentanil administration.

Keep resuscitation equipment available to address possible overdose or severe respiratory issues.

Educate patients about potential side effects and monitoring needs.

The patient progresses from awake to drowsy, losing pain sensation, with slowed responses to stimuli. Mild respiratory depression occurs.

Characterized by irregular breathing, involuntary movements, increased muscle tone, active reflexes, potential vomiting or struggling, and increased risk of laryngospasm.

Regular breathing resumes, muscle relaxation occurs, eye movements cease; patient is ready for surgery, with adequate anesthesia depth. Gag and cough reflexes are lost.

Severe respiratory and cardiovascular depression; pupils dilate, pulse weakens and is irregular. This is a life-threatening stage.

The stage of anesthesia where the patient is completely ready for surgery.

Transition from awake to drowsy, loss of sensation and slowing responses.

Monitor vital signs, assist with induction, reassure the patient, provide emotional support, ensure equipment is functioning.

Protect patient from self-injury, maintain a calm environment, secure airway, suction secretions if needed, assist anesthetist if needed.

Tests performed before surgery to assess the patient's health and identify potential risks.

A patient's agreement to surgery after receiving sufficient information about the procedure, risks, and alternatives, signed and witnessed.

Problems that may arise during or after a surgical procedure, influenced by various patient factors.

Blood tests measuring the amount of red blood cells and their ability to carry oxygen; low levels indicate anemia.

An abnormal level of electrolytes, like sodium, potassium or chloride, which can cause dehydration, renal or cardiovascular issues.

Blood's ability to clot; assessed to prevent excessive bleeding during and after surgery.

Categorization of blood based on antigens; necessary for blood transfusions if needed during or after surgery.

Monitoring blood glucose levels to identify and manage potential complications in diabetic patients before surgery.
