Maintenance Barbiturates - Thiopental, Methohexital Provides sustained anesthesia - Replaced by propofol BZDs - Commonly used in the perioperative period include midazolam, lorazepam, and less Recovery frequently diazepam Time from discontinuation of anesthetic until consciousness - Produce minimal depression of ventilation, and protective reflexes return although transient apnea may follow rapid IV administration of Midazolam for Anesthesia Protocols induction of anesthesia Etomidate - GABA-mimetic - An IV anesthetic with hypnotic but not For minor procedures analgesic effects and is often chosen for Conscious sedation techniques (IV agents with local its minimal hemodynamic effects anesthetics) Ketamine - NMDA receptor inhibitor For more extensive surgical procedures - Partially water-soluble; highly lipid-soluble IV drugs to induce the anesthetic state, inhaled anesthetics phencyclidine derivative (with or without IV agents) to maintain an anesthetic state, - Produces significant analgesia and neuromuscular blocking agents to effect muscle - “dissociative” anesthesia” – cataleptic state relaxation - S(+) form is more potent than R (-) isomer Dexmedetimidine - Highly selective α2-adrenegic agonist Assessment of depth of anesthesia during surgery - Principally used for the short-term sedation Vital sign monitoring of intubated & ventilated Cerebral monitoring (EEG) Opioid Analgesics - Strong opioids (morphine, fentanyl, sulfentanyl) Mechanism of Action in General Anesthetics - Analgesic agents and are distinct from Anesthetics = CNS depressant general anesthetics and hypnotics Increase inhibitory (GABA) synaptic activity - Routinely used to achieve postoperative Inhaled anesthetics, Barbiturates, BZDs, Etomidate, analgesia and intraoperatively as part of a balanced anesthesia regimen and Propofol Decrease excitatory (glutamate or ACh) synaptic activity Local Anesthetics Inhaled anesthetics (Nicotinic receptor antagonists) Ester Type: 1i - Cocaine Ketamine (NMDA receptor antagonist) - Procaine - Chloroprocaine Inhaled Anesthetics Amide Type: 2i - Lidocaine Nitrous Oxide - Non-volatile gas - Bupivacaine - Weakest anesthetic;
