3. General Anesthesia
โข The word Anesthesia means absence of sensation,
and general anesthesia therefore implies
unconsciousness.
โข General Anesthetics include any agents capable of
producing total insensibility in a reversible manner,
it can be inhalational, intravenous or combined.
3
4. What is Surgical anesthesia?
โข Its a state of harmless and reversible insensibility
which allows operations of considerable magnitude
to be carried out without hindrance to the surgeon
or detriment to the patient.
โข It is convenient to consider this anesthetic state as
consisting of a triad of SLEEP, ANALGESIA and
MUSCLE RELAXATION.
4
5. Preparations for GA
โข Before giving anesthesia, considerations should be
given to the induction of anesthesia, the position of
the patient on the operating table, monitoring, the
use of intravenous ๏ฌuids or blood transfusion,
postoperative care and recovery facilities which will
be required.
โข The availability and function of all anesthetic
equipment should be checked before starting.
5
6. Induction of GA
A. Inhalational induction.
โข Can be done by one of the inhalational anesthetic
agents which are: Halothane, Iso๏ฌurane, En๏ฌurane,
Des๏ฌurane and Sevo๏ฌurane.
โข If spontaneous ventilation is to be maintained
throughout the procedure, the mask is applied more
๏ฌrmly as consciousness is lost and the airway can
be supported by guedel airway or by laryngeal
mask or by endotracheal tube.
6
7. Induction of GA cont.
โข Indications for Inhalational induction are:
1. Young children.
2. Upper airway obstruction.
3. Lower airway obstruction with foreign body.
4. Bronchopleural ๏ฌstula.
. Dif๏ฌculties and Complications:
1. Slow induction of anesthesia.
2. Airway obstruction, bronchospasm.
3. Laryngeal spasm.
4. Environmental pollution.
7
8. Induction cont..
B. Intravenous Induction.
Monitoring should be started on the patient including
Spo2, Blood pressure, ECG, Temperature.
Preoxygenation should be started using facemask
with delivering of 100% oxygen.
Induction can be done by one of the IV induction
agents: Thiopentone, Etomidate, Propofol, Ketamine.
8
9. Induction cont..
โข Complications of IV induction:
1. Regurgitation and vomiting.
2. Intra-arterial injection.
3. Peri-venous injection.
4. Cardiovascular depression.
5. Respiratory depression.
6. Histamine release.
7. Porphyria.
8. others, like pain on injection.
9
10. Positioning
โข After induction, the patient is placed on the
operating table in a position appropriate for the
proposed surgery.
โข When positioning the patient, the anesthetist should
take into account surgical access, patient safety,
anesthetic technique, monitoring and position of i.v.
lines.
10
11. Positioning cont..
โข Here is the commonly used positions, each may have adverse
effects on skeletal, ventilatory, circulatory and neurological.
1. The lithotomy position may result in nerve damage
2. The lateral position may cause asymmetrical lung ventilation.
3. The prone position may cause abdominal compression.
4. The trendelenburg position may cause pressure on the
diaphragm.
5. The sitting position needs good support of the head.
6. The supine position may cause supine hypotensive syndrome
during pregnancy.
11
12. Maintenance of GA
โข Maintenance means continuation of anesthesia.
โข Maintenance can be achieved by :
A. Inhalational + spontaneous ventilation.
B. Inhalational + controlled ventilation.
C. Intravenous + spontaneous ventilation.
D. Intravenous + controlled ventilation.
12
13. Inhalational Anesthesia
โข Its suitable for super๏ฌcial operations, minor procedures and
small operations that don't require muscle relaxants.
โข MAC is the minimum alveolar concentration of an inhaled
anesthetic agent which prevents re๏ฌex movement in response
to surgical incision in 50% of subjects.
โข The main advantage of inhalational anesthesia is rapid control
to deep anesthesia.
โข The signs of inadequate depth of anesthesia are: Tachypnea,
Tachycardia, Hypertension and sweating.
13
15. Maintenance cont..
โข Inhalational anesthesia can be delivered by face mask, laryngeal
mask airway (LMA) or by endotracheal tube (ETT).
โข USE OF FACE MASK:
The face mask has many variants of type and size, the selection
of the correct ๏ฌt is important to provide a gas-tight seal.
A mask with excessive dead space should be avoided in
pediatric age group.
Maintenance of the airway may be assisted further by the use of
Guedel airway.
15
16. Maintenance cont..
โข Use of the laryngeal mask airway:
Indications:
1. To provide a clear airway with hands free
anesthetist.
2. To avoid intubation during spontaneous ventilation.
3. To assist intubation in case of dif๏ฌculties.
Contraindications:
1. Full stomach patient.
2. Any possibilities of regurgitations like hiatus hernia.
3. surgery in the pharynx
16
17. Maintenance cont..
โข Use of endotracheal intubation:
Indications:
1. secure clear airway.
2. Can be used in unusual positions.
3. Naso-tracheal tube can be used for head&neck
surgery.
4. Protect the respiratory system from blood.
5. Help suction of the respiratory system.
6. For thoracic surgeries.
17
18. Relaxant Anesthesia
โข Is an alternative to deep anesthesia with spontaneous
ventilation and volatile agents leading to multisystem
depression, the triad of sleep, suppression of re๏ฌexes
and muscle relaxation may be provided separately with
speci๏ฌc agents.
โข Relaxant anesthesia provides muscle relaxation with light
level of anesthesia with less risk of cardiovascular
depression.
โข Its appropriate for major abdominal, intraperitoneal,
thoracic or intracranial operations.
18
19. Assessment of Relaxant
Anesthesia
A. Adequacy of Anesthesia.
Autonomic re๏ฌex activity with lacrimation, sweating,
tachycardia, hypertension or re๏ฌex movement in
response to surgery indicate โlight anesthesiaโ.
B. Awareness during anesthesia.
The anesthetist should ensure that this possibility is
avoided by constant observation of the patient for
clinical signs of light anesthesia and by the use of
Bispectral Index (BIS) monitoring.
19
20. Assessment of Relaxant
Anesthesia cont..
C. Adequacy of muscle relaxation.
We should observe return of muscle tone, any
abdominal movement or diaphragmatic or facial
movement.
An increase in airway pressure may indicate an
increase in muscle tone.
Small increments about 25-35% of the initial dose of
the muscle relaxant.
D. Adequacy of ventilation.
The clinical signs of inadequacy are tachycardia,
hypertension and increase in PaCo2.
20
21. Reversal of Relaxation
โข At the end of operation, residual neuromuscular
blockade is antagonized and spontaneous
ventilation established before the tracheal tube is
removed and the patient awakened.
โข Reversal drug composed of ( Neostigmine 2.5 mg +
Atropine 1.2 mg) for adults.
โข Resumption of spontaneous ventilation should
occur if normocapnic ventilation has been employed
and assured by monitoring on end tidal Co2.
21
22. Reversal of Relaxation cont.
โข In patients at risk of regurgitation and potential aspiration,
the lateral position is preferred.
โข Return of respiratory re๏ฌexes is signi๏ฌcant by coughing and
resistance to the presence of the tracheal tube.
โข Tracheobroncheal suction via the tracheal tube is carried
out using suction catheter.
โข Pharyngeal suction is performed best under direct vision,
avoiding trauma to the pharyngeal mucosa, uvula or
epiglottis.
โข After extubation, the patientโs ability to maintain the airway
is ensured; Administration of oxygen is continued by face
mask.
22
23. Complications of Extubation
โข Laryngeal spasm:
This may follow stimulation from extubation. Local
anesthetic spray to the larynx may block the re๏ฌex and
pharyngeal suction before extubation removes
secretions which may cause stimulation.
โข Regurgitation / inhalation:
If case of emergency surgery the patientโs stomach
may be full, So aspiration by the nasogastric tube
should be performed before tracheal extubation to
remove gastric liquid.
23
24.
25. Local Anesthesia
โข Local anesthetic drugs act by producing a reversible
block to the transmission of peripheral nerve
impulse.
โข A reversible block may be produced also by
physical factors including pressure and cold.
โข Many types of drug have local anesthetic actions
(e.g. B-blocker and anti-histamines). But all those
known and used as local anesthetics have
originated from cocaine.
25
26. Mode of Action
โข When the nerve is stimulated, the potential difference
alters so that the inside becomes positive and the
outside negative for a very brief period. In this state the
nerve is said to be polarized and this is due to the rapid
in๏ฌux of sodium ions followed by an ef๏ฌux of
potassium.
โข If a local anesthetic solution is applied to the nerve,
then the action potential becomes smaller and if the
concentration is suf๏ฌciently high, is completely
abolished. If the trans-membrane potential is measured
in this state it shows the normal resting potential.
26
27. Mode of Action cont..
โข These substances are believed to block the sodium
channels from the inside.
โข Small nerve ๏ฌbers are more sensitive than large
nerve ๏ฌbers.
โข Myelinated ๏ฌbers are blocked before non-
myelinated ๏ฌbers of the same diameter.
27
28. Mode of Action cont..
โข Nerve ๏ฌbers also differ in their susceptibility to local
anesthetics. Thus it is the ๏ฌne C ๏ฌbers that are
blocked ๏ฌrst, followed by the A sigma ๏ฌbers, both
these groups subserving pain and temperature.
Increasing the the concentration results in loss of
touch and vibration sense, while the highest
concentrations used clinically are needed to block
motor function and proprioception.
28
29. Properties of Ideal LA

โข Non-irritant.
โข No allergic reaction.
โข No systemic toxicity.
โข Reversible action.
โข Rapid onset of action.
โข Suf๏ฌcient duration of action.

Classi๏ฌcation
33. Esters and Amides
Differences
โข Esters result from the combination of para-
aminobenzoic acid and an amino-alcohol, while the
amides result from the combination of aniline and
amino acid.
โข Esters have short half lives, while amides have longer.
โข pKa values of the esters are higher than that of the
amides.
โข Amides are more stable in solution and are more
diffusible in tissue.
33
34. Chemistry
โข The aromatic ring & hydrogen chain length determines
lipid solubility.
โข The more lipid solubility, more easily penetrates cell
membrane, more effect.
โข The length of intermediate chain determines the duration
of action. (long chain causes long duration).
โข The duration of action increases with increasing protein
binding. for example: protein binding of prilocain is 55%
with medium duration compared with bupivacaine 96%
protein binding and long duration.
34
35. Absorption
โข Some of the drug will be absorbed into the systemic
circulation.
โข The degree of absorption depends on the
vascularity of the area to which the drug has been
applied.
โข The rate of absorption can be decreased by adding
vasoconstrictors.
35
36. Distribution
โข The distribution of the drug is in๏ฌuenced by the
degree of tissue and plasma protein binding of the
drug.
โข The more protein binding, the longer duration of
action as free drug is slowly be available for
metabolism.
36
37. Metabolism & Excretion
โข Esters (except cocaine) are broken down rapidly by
plasma esterases to inactive compounds and
consequently have a short half life.
โข Cocaine as exception is hydrolyzed in the liver.
โข Ester metabolite excretion is renal.
โข Amides are metabolized hepatically by amidases.
This is a slower process, hence their half-life is
longer and they can accumulate if given in repeated
doses or by infusion.
37
38. Blood Levels of LA
โข Systemic toxic reactions are directly related to the
blood level of the drug, this is in๏ฌuenced by a
number of factors. Following injection into tissues,
the resultant blood level is a balance between
absorption of the drug and distribution and
metabolism, both of the latter acting to reduce its
blood levels.
38
39. Blood Levels cont..
Factors that determine the blood level are:
1. Dose of the drug.
2. Rate of administration.
3. Site of injection.
4. Presence or absence of vasoconstrictors.
The LA.s posses properties that will have some effect on their
absorption. These include:
โข Degree of protein binding.
โข Fat solubility.
โข Vasoactivity.
โข pKa.
39
40. Toxicity
โข Why toxicity happens ?
โข What are the signs and symptoms ?
โข How we treat toxicity ?
40
41. Causes of Toxicity
โข Toxicity occurs when a large dose has been injected
into a very vascular area or when a normal dose is
inadvertently injected intravenously; it may also
result from premature release of the tourniquet
during intra-venous regional anesthesia.
41
42. Signs & Symptoms of Toxicity
A variety of signs and symptoms occur depending on
the blood level and its rate of rise
Central Nervous System
Sedation, circumoral paraesthesia, pallor,fear,
dizziness, excitement, tinnitus,anxiety and convulsion.
signs and symptoms appear in this sequence if the
blood level increases gradually. If blood level inceases
suddenly then convulsion may be the ๏ฌrst sign to
appear.
42
43. Signs & Symptoms cont..
Cardiovascular System
Increase refractory period, prolonged conduction,
decrease contractility, ๏ฌnally ventricular ๏ฌbrillation may
occur.
With bupivacaine overdose ventricular ๏ฌbrillation
occurs immediately.
43
44. Treatment of Toxicity
โข For convulsion we give benzodiazepine
โข For respiratory failure we administer oxygen and
control respiration.
โข For circulatory failure we give vasopressor drugs, if
not suf๏ฌcient we give noradrenaline infusion.
