Anesthesia is defined as the abolitionof sensation.
Analgesia is defined as the abolition ofpain.

First public demonstration of ETHERanaesthesia was given in 1846 for theremoval of a vascular tumour.
Later in 1846, an American dentistadministered ETHER during a dental
extraction.

1. Unconsciousness
2. Analgesia3. Muscle relaxation
A variety of drugs are given to thePatient that have above effects.

1. Reduces intraoperative patient awareness and recall.
2. Allows proper muscle relaxation for prolonged periods oftime.
3. Facilitates complete control of the airway, breathing, andcirculation.
4. Can be used in cases of sensitivity to local anestheticagent.
5. Can be administered without moving the patient from thesupine position.
6. Can be adapted easily to procedures of unpredictableduration or extent
7. Can be administered rapidly and is reversible

1. Requires increased complexity of care and associatedcosts.
2. Requires some degree of preoperative patientpreparation.
3. Can induce physiologic fluctuations that require activeintervention.
4. Less serious complications. Eg: nausea or vomiting,sore throat, headache and shivering.
5. Associated with malignant hyperthermia, a rare, some(but not all) general anesthetic agents results in acuteand potentially lethal temperature rise, hypercarbia,metabolic acidosis, and hyperkalemia.

General Anaesthesia usually involvesthe administration of 3 different drugs:
1. Premedication
2. Induction of anaesthesia
3. Maintenance of anaesthesia

Clinical assessment of the patient:
History/Examination/Investigation
Pre operative optimization:
Correction of anaemia , Hypovolaemia & Dehydration
Control of medical disease
Premedication

2 main aims:
1. Prevention of theparasympathomimetic effects ofanaesthesia. Eg: Bradycardia/bronchial secretion
2. Reduction of anxiety and pain
-

15/48
Anxiolytics: Relief from anxiety
Eg: Benzodiazepines
(Diazepam/Lorazepam/Midazolam)Analgesics: When there is existing pain or as a supplementto an anaesthetic agent.
Eg: Paracetamol, NSAIDs, Opiates
Parasympathetic blockers: (Anti Muscaranic)To reduce bronchial and salivary secretions
Eg: Atropine / Hyoscine / Glycopyrronium

Acid aspiration prophylaxis
Eg: Cimetidine/Ranitidine
Antibiotic Prophylaxis
Eg: Invasive dental procedures
Antithrombotic Prophylaxis
Eg: Subcutaneous Heparin injection

1. Intravenous anesthetics
Eg: Thiopentone / Propofol / Ketamine
2. Inhalational anesthetics
Eg: Halothane / Isoflurane / Desflurane / Sevoflurane /Nitrous Oxide

1. Intravenous anesthetics are still the mostcommon method.
Eg: Thiopentone / Propofol / Ketamine
May be used either to induce or maintenance ofanaesthesia.
Anaesthetic effect once it reaches the centralnervous system (One arm brain circulation time)

The most widely used barbiturate.
Causes unconsciousness within 3045 second persistsfor about 4-7 mins.
It has no analgesic properties.
Strongly Alkaline; causes severe necrosis in accidentalextra-vascular administration. Inject through catheters toavoid this.
Thiopental is not used to maintain anesthesia in surgicalprocedures. Because it displays zero-order eliminationkinetics.

Presented as powder and dissolved in water to
required concentration.

Metabolism:
Initially distributed highly vascular tissues of the
brain and other organs.
Subsequently diffuses into fatty tissues.
This process terminate the pharmacological
effect.It is slowly but entirely metabolized in the Liver.

26/48
Dosage:
Adults and Children 3-5mg/kg given slowly over
10-15 seconds.
Over dosage:
Respiratory depression - Assisted ventilation withoxygen may required.
Hypotension progressing to circulatory collapse Head of the table must immediately be tilted down.
-
8/3/2019 38075193 General Anaesthesia
27/48
Contraindications:
Should not be used if there is doubt that a clear
airway can be maintained.
If allergy to barbiturates.
If severe cardiovascular disease or hypotension.
-
8/3/2019 38075193 General Anaesthesia
28/48
Precausions:
Administered under supervision of an
experienced anaesthetist.
Equipment for resuscitation should be available.
Patient should lie supine because even a small
dose can cause hypotension.

Ketamine is used very rarely now.
It has good analgesic properties.
Anaesthesia persist for upto 15 mins.
-
8/3/2019 38075193 General Anaesthesia
32/48
Advantages:
Does not induce Hypotension
Pharyngeal and Laryngeal reflexes are slightlyimpaired. (So airway may be less at risk)
Rarely induces bronchospasms.
-

Disadvantages:
Does not produce muscle relaxation.

High incidence of Hallucinations. These can be
reduced by diazepam or midazolam.

It is a potent agent.Induction is smooth and pleasant.
Produces moderate muscle relaxation.Vapour is non irritant.
-
8/3/2019 38075193 General Anaesthesia
41/48
Advantages:
Anaesthesia can be produced by 2-5min.
Does not augment salivary or bronchial secretions.Recovery is rapid and nausea and vomiting is low.
Disadvantages: (Adverse Effects)
Severe Hepatotoxity (1:50,000)
Respiratory depression results in raised in CO2 andcause arrhythmias.
Cardio depression causes Bradycardia
-
8/3/2019 38075193 General Anaesthesia
42/48
Contraindications:
History of unexplained Jaundice.
Family history of malignant hyperthermia.
Precautions:
At least 3 months should be allowed to elapsebetween each re-exposure. (Minimize liverdamage)
-
8/3/2019 38075193 General Anaesthesia
43/48
Isoflurane
Similar in action to halothane.
But less cardio depressant and unlikely to causehepatotoxity
Desflurane
Similar to isoflurane but is less potent
Sevoflurane -
More potent than desflurane and recovery are rapid.
-
8/3/2019 38075193 General Anaesthesia
44/48
This is not potent enough to use for induction.
So it is used for maintenance of anaesthesia.
For anaesthesia:
a mixture with 70% gas and 30% oxygen
For analgesia:
A mixture of NO and oxygen containing 50% of each
Self administration in labour (Entonox)

Adverse Effects:
Nausea and Vomiting
Repeated exposure can cause bone marrowdepression.
Storage:NO is supplied under pressure in cylinders.

General anaesthesia is a procedure which isnever without risk (including the risk ofdeath). As a result, the General DentalCouncil in the UK recommends that "the
decision to refer a patient for treatment undergeneral anaesthesia should not be takenlightly.
-
8/3/2019 38075193 General Anaesthesia
47/48
It's not recommended for routine dental work like
fillings.Laboratory tests, chest x-rays and ECG are oftenrequired before having GA, because of the greaterrisks involved.
Very advanced training and an anesthesia team arerequired, and special equipment and facilities areneeded.
GA does nothing to reduce dental anxiety.
It's expensive.
