Early attempts at medical anesthesia using plant extracts were unsuccessful as they caused harmful side effects. In the late 18th century, gases like nitrous oxide were used but were not strong enough for surgery. William Morton developed a new method of anesthesia using sulfuric ether in 1846, which proved successful. Concurrently, Crawford Long developed an anesthetic using diethyl ether and published his findings in 1849, becoming known as the father of anesthesiology. Modern surgeons have several types of anesthesia available depending on the procedure, including local, regional, and general anesthesia.

Could adhd medication cut crime?
A study from Sweden analyzed the medical histories and criminal records of over 25,000 people with ADHD. It found that men with ADHD were 32% less likely to commit crimes while taking medication for the disorder, and women with ADHD were 41% less likely. The drugs may reduce crime by decreasing impulsive behavior and allowing people to function better at home, work, and school, reducing opportunities for criminal acts. The study provides information for parents concerned about whether to medicate their children for ADHD.

This document provides an introduction to anesthesia. It defines anesthesia as the partial or complete loss of sensation with or without loss of consciousness due to drugs. The three main components of anesthesia are analgesia, hypnosis/amnesia, and muscle relaxation. The four main types of anesthesia are general anesthesia, which causes unconsciousness; regional anesthesia which numbs specific areas; sedation; and local anesthesia which numbs small areas. The document then discusses the history of anesthesia, including early pain relief methods and the discoveries of diethyl ether and nitrous oxide as the first inhalational anesthetic agents.
History of Anaesthesia - Dr Tanjim Reza
This document provides a history of anesthesia from ancient times to the present day. It discusses early non-drug and drug methods used for pain management during surgeries. Key events included Morton's public demonstration of ether anesthesia in 1846 in Boston. Later developments included the introduction of chloroform and other inhaled anesthetic agents, as well as advances in equipment and monitoring. The document also describes the development of anesthesia services in Bangladesh, including the establishment of training programs and professional organizations.

Pharmacological behavior management
This document discusses various methods of pharmacological behavior management for dental procedures, including conscious sedation, deep sedation, and general anesthesia. It describes different routes of administration for sedative drugs like inhalation, intramuscular, intravenous, sublingual, rectal, intranasal, and oral. Specific drugs discussed include nitrous oxide, diazepam, triazolam, midazolam, and promethazine. The history of anesthesia discovery and key figures is also summarized.
Anesthesia
This document discusses different types of anesthesia used in medical procedures. It describes general anesthesia as inducing a medically-induced coma to make the patient unaware and paralyzed during surgery, requiring ventilation. Regional anesthesia numbs a specific body area to allow conscious sedation or awareness. Local anesthesia numbs a small site for minor procedures without altering awareness. The document provides details on administration and risks of each type.
What is a D.O.?
A D.O. (Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine) is a medical doctor who utilizes osteopathic manual therapy in addition to conventional medical treatments. D.O.s are trained in osteopathic principles which view the body as a unit and emphasize structure and function. Traditional D.O.s spend 30-45 minutes with each patient using manual techniques like myofascial release and cranial therapy in addition to medication management and other therapies to treat conditions like chronic pain, injuries, and digestive issues with the goal of using less medication and physical therapy than conventional treatments. One such therapy a D.O. may use is prolozone/regenerative tissue therapy which involves injecting areas like joints to promote collagen
Secrets of Medicine
The document compares and contrasts traditional and alternative medicines for pain relief. It discusses the long histories of both opioids and acupuncture dating back thousands of years. While opioids provide fast relief, they are highly addictive and do not treat the underlying cause of pain. Acupuncture aims to restore balance to the body's energy flow and has milder side effects but lacks extensive research support. The document examines how each approach works, common side effects, and when each may be best suited for different types of pain treatment.
Historical evolution of clinical trial guidelines in the world
The document summarizes the historical evolution of clinical trial guidelines from ancient times to the present. Some key events include the first recorded clinical trial by King Nebuchadnezzar in 562 BC, James Lind's 1757 controlled trial of treatments for scurvy, the introduction of the placebo concept in the 1800s, the first double-blind randomized controlled trial in 1943 investigating treatment for the common cold, and major milestones in the development of ethical guidelines and regulations for clinical trials over the 20th century including the Nuremberg Code, Declaration of Helsinki, and establishment of regulatory bodies like the ICMR in India.

Anesthesiology
The document discusses the history of anesthesia from ancient times when pain was seen as punishment to modern times when anesthesia allowed for safer surgeries. It describes key events like the first use of ether and other substances for anesthesia. The role of anesthesiologists is also summarized, from providing pain management and life support during surgery to treating acute and chronic pain.
4407343.pptx
This document discusses general anesthetics used for inducing and maintaining anesthesia. It describes the two main types - inhalational anesthetics like isoflurane, sevoflurane, desflurane and nitrous oxide which are used for maintenance of anesthesia, and intravenous anesthetics like propofol, thiopental and ketamine which are used for induction of anesthesia. Key factors that determine the properties of inhalational anesthetics include their blood-gas partition coefficient, which impacts induction and recovery time, and oil-gas partition coefficient, which correlates with their potency. The document also provides details on the mechanisms, advantages and side effects of various commonly used general anesthetics.

Post operative pain management
1) The document discusses the history and modern understanding of pain physiology and management of postoperative pain. It describes how pain was originally thought to be outside the body but is now understood as a physical sensation processed in the nervous system.
2) Postoperative pain has acute causes from incisions and procedures as well as referred pain, and poorly managed pain can impair recovery. A multimodal approach using combinations of analgesics like paracetamol, NSAIDs, and opioids along with local anesthetics and nerve blocks is recommended.
3) Patient-controlled analgesia allows patients to self-administer opioids within safe limits and provides effective pain relief. Preemptive analgesia aims to prevent central sensitization by treating pain before and

Cannabis. fog of ignorance v.1
This document discusses the history of cannabis use and research. It notes that cannabis has a long history of medicinal use but was removed from the US Pharmacopoeia in 1942 and classified as a Schedule I drug in 1970 despite evidence that it has medical applications and relatively low risks. Barriers to research have impeded scientific understanding of the endocannabinoid system and cannabis's potential medical benefits.
Departmental Honors Research Paper
The document discusses the history and effects of anesthesia. It begins by outlining the development of anesthesia from ancient times through the 19th century. It then describes the two broad classes of anesthesia - local and general. Local anesthesia blocks nerve transmission near the site of injection, while general anesthesia induces unconsciousness. The document discusses potential side effects like nausea, vomiting, and impaired coordination that are common with both types of anesthesia. It also notes several adverse effects more common in elderly patients, like postoperative delirium. Finally, the document reviews research on how general anesthesia may affect synaptogenesis and neural development, especially in young children, both positively and negatively depending on conditions.
Anesthesia
Anesthesia involves inducing temporary states of analgesia, paralysis, amnesia, or unconsciousness. The first documented use of general anesthesia was in 1842 by Crawford Long using ether, though William Morton first publicly demonstrated it in 1846 for surgery. Different types of anesthesia, like regional or general, affect endpoints like analgesia, amnesia, and unconsciousness. Risks and complications of anesthesia can include morbidity like disease or disorders, and mortality like death resulting from the anesthesia or surgery. Careful monitoring is needed during emergence from anesthesia due to risks of issues like nausea, vomiting, or airway problems.
Types of anesthesia
The document discusses the history and types of anesthesia, from ancient civilizations using plants for pain management to the development of modern general anesthesia with ether and chloroform in the 1800s. It also covers regional anesthesia techniques like spinal blocks and local infiltration, as well as the different classes of drugs used for induction, maintenance, analgesia, and muscle relaxation during general anesthesia. The choice of anesthesia depends on factors like the procedure, patient health, and surgeon requirements.

Wonders in pharma
- Pharmacology is the study of drugs and their interactions with living systems. Rudolf Buchheim established the first pharmacology chair in 1847, marking the emergence of pharmacology as a distinct science. Oswald Schmiedeberg is considered the founder of modern pharmacology due to his pioneering experimental work and textbook on the subject. Important contributors include John Jacob Abel, considered the father of American pharmacology, and Otto Loewi, who provided the first evidence of chemical transmission in synapses.
Unit 3 surgery fact booklet
This document summarizes developments in surgery between 1800-1918, focusing on the main problems of pain, infection, and bleeding during this period. It describes how early 19th century surgery was limited, with high mortality rates around 40% due largely to post-operative infections. It then outlines key developments in addressing pain through trials of nitrous oxide, ether and chloroform anesthesia. While these helped, they also increased risks and prompted longer surgeries, contributing to the "Black Period" of high fatalities from 1850s-1870s. The document concludes by noting later 20th century advances in localized and intravenous anesthesia.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

- 2. ● None of the early attempts at medical anesthesia, which involved herbs and plant extracts, provided the benefits doctors were looking for without also delivering detrimental consequences. ● Gasses such as nitrous oxide were developed and used in the late 18th century for traumatic surgery but were not considered strong enough. ● Further experimentation led Boston dentist William Thomas Green Morton to develop a new method of anesthesia, using sulfuric ether, which proved successful in 1846. ● Concurrently, Dr. Crawford Long was developing an anesthetic made of diethyl ether. Long published his findings in 1849. With that, he became known as the father of anesthesiology.
- 3. ● While doctors were formerly limited to gasses that numbed the entire body, modern surgeons utilize numerous types of anesthesia, the ultimate selection depending on the procedure at hand. ● Doctors may opt for local anesthesia, which numbs targeted areas of the body; regional anesthesia, which blocks pain to a larger portion of the body; or general anesthesia, which affects the brain and keeps you unconscious.
