The document provides an introduction to anesthesia. It discusses the definition of anesthesia and the two main types: general anesthesia and regional (local) anesthesia. General anesthesia involves unconsciousness and is usually required for major surgery, while regional anesthesia blocks sensation in a restricted area of the body and is commonly used for minor procedures and surgery. The document outlines the mechanisms, stages, drugs, and equipment involved in general anesthesia, as well as various regional anesthesia techniques like spinal blocks. It also discusses the scope of practice for anesthesiologists, which includes perioperative care, intensive care, resuscitation, pain management, research, and teaching.
Different types of anesthesia by john gerancherJohn Gerancher
Recognized as a pioneer in the field of anesthesiology, Dr. John Gerancher was responsible for developing the clinical care area, teaching program, and regional anesthesia section at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center. Dr. John Gerancher also designed and implemented a computer information system for the operating room called the John Galt. Otherwise known to his peers as J.C., Dr. John Charles Gerancher was licensed to practice medicine in Washington, North Carolina, and California.
Anesthesia is a state of controlled, temporary loss of sensation or awareness that is induced for medical purposes.
Local anesthetics block the nerves that connect a particular body part or region to the brain, preventing the nerves from carrying pain signals to your brain. Examples include novocaine shots, which dentists use to numb the nerves in your mouth during a root canal, and epidurals, which allow for a (relatively) painless childbirth by blocking the nerves that originate at the base of the spinal cord and serve the pelvic region.
For serious surgeries that require a patient to be completely unaware, doctors turn to general anesthesia. This renders patients unconscious with no perception or memory of the surgery (though pain from the surgical procedure will be apparent once you wake up). It also limits the physiological responses to surgical cuts, keeping blood pressure, stress hormone release and heart rate constant during the procedure.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

INTRODUCTION TO
ANESTHESIA
2.
3. The name anesthesia (Greekan,“without, and
esthesia,“sensation”) .
The propose use of the term anesthesia to denote
the state that incorporates Amnesia, analgesia, and
hypnosis to make painless surgery possible.
Anesthesia is the use of medicine to prevent the
feeling of pain or another sensation during surgery or
other procedures that might be painful
4. Introduction to anesthesia
Anesthesia:- Definition
is a state of controlled,
temporary loss of sensation
or awareness that is induced
for medical purpose .
5. Types of anesthesia
There are mainly two types of
anesthesia:-
1-General anesthesia
2- Regional (local
anesthesia)
6. 1- General anesthesia (GA)
Anesthesia that complete and
affecting the entire body with loss
of consciousness when the
anesthetics acts up on the brain.
This type of anesthesia is usually
accomplished following
administration of inhalational or Iv
anesthetics commonly used for
surgical procedures.
7. General anesthesia acts primarily on the
central nervous system to make the patient
unconscious and unaware.
It is administered via the patient's circulatory
system by a combination of inhaled gas and
injected drugs.
After the initial injection, anesthesia is
maintained with inhaled gas anesthetics and
additional drugs through an intravenous line
(IV).
It can broadly be defined as a drug-induced
reversible depression of the central nervous
system (CNS) resulting in the loss of response
to and perception of all external stimuli
8. Where in the Central Nervous
System do Anesthetics Work?
The biochemical mechanism of action of
general anesthetics is not well understood.
To induce unconsciousness, anesthetics have
myriad sites of action and affect the central
nervous system (CNS) at multiple levels.
Common areas of the central nervous system
whose functions are interrupted
or changed during general anesthesia include
-cerebral cortex,
-thalamus,
-reticular activating system, and
-spinal cord
9. Cont…
Potential pharmacologic targets of
general anesthetics are
-GABA,
-Glutamate receptors,
-voltage-gated ion channels, and
-Glycine and serotonin receptors
10. The cardinal features of general
anesthesia are
sleep (unconsciousness)→hypnosis and
amnesia
loss of all sensation( analgesia)
muscle relaxation (abolition of reflexes)
Triad of General anaesthesia
Hypnosis
Analgesi
a
Muscle
relaxation(Areflexia)
11. 1.Hypnosis :Unconsciousness is a state which occurs
when the ability to maintain an awareness of self and
environment is lost.
It involves a complete or near-complete lack of
responsiveness to people and other environmental
stimuli.
2.Amnesia: Amnesia can be caused temporarily by
the use of various sedatives and hypnotic drugs.
Essentially, amnesia is loss of memory.
3.Analgesia: An analgesic or pain killer is any
member of the group of drugs used to achieve
analgesia, relief from pain.
Analgesic drugs act in various ways on the
peripheral and central nervous systems
4.Immobielity ;loss of motor reflexes
5.Decreasion the autonomic response to noxious
stimulate .
12. 1- General anesthesia (GA)
In the modern practice of balanced
anesthesia, these modalities are
achieved by using combination of
drugs, each drug for a specific
purpose. Look at the following.
14. Stages of Anesthesia
Stage I:
This period begins with induction of anesthesia and
continues to loss of consciousness.
Stage II : Delirium
This period characterized by not reserved excitation and
potentially injurious responses to noxious stimuli, including
vomiting, tachycardia ,hypertension and uncontrolled
movement.
The pupils are often dilated…… .
Stage III : Surgical anesthesia
In this target depth for anesthesia, the gaze is central,
pupils are constricted, and respirations are regular.
Stage IV : Over dosage
Commonly described as too deep
23. Regional anaesthesia(local
anesthesia)
Local anesthetics
Drugs which upon topical application or local
injection cause reversible loss of sensory
perception, especially of pain in a restricted area of
the body.
block generation and conduction of nerve impulse
with out causing any structural damage .
Sensory & motor impulses are interrupted when a
local anesthesia .
24. Major types of regional anesthesia
include:
Central neural blockade refers to
either epidural or spinal anesthesia.
Spinal anesthesia- often used for
lower abdominal, pelvic, rectal, or lower
extremity surgery.
This type of anesthetic involves
injecting a single dose of the anesthetic
agent directly into the spinal cord in the
lower back, causing numbness in the
lower body.
25. Epidural, and caudal anesthesia - this
anesthetic is similar to a spinal anesthesia
and also is commonly used for surgery of
the lower limbs and during labor and
childbirth
This type of anesthesia involves
continually infusing drugs through a thin
catheter that has been placed into the
space that surrounds the spinal cord in the
lower back/ Epidural space , causing
numbness in the lower body
Caudal anesthesia is a common
regional
Technique in pediatric patients.
26. Nerve blocks - A local anesthetic is
injected near a specific nerve or group of
nerves to block pain from the area of the
body supplied by the nerve.
Nerve blocks are most commonly used
for
procedures on the hands, arms, feet, legs,
or face.
Example - A Brachial Plexus block
may be used
to provide anesthesia to the entire arm and
shoulder
29. Local anaesthetics
Lignocaine- quick/short acting
Bupivacaine/levobupicvacaine- slow
and long action
Ropivacaine- as above
Amethocaine- topical
Prilocaine- intravenous
30. Comparative features of GA &
LA
features General anesthesia Local anesthesia
Site of action CNS Peripheral nerves

Minor surgery Not preferred Preferred
31. Contraindications for regional
Anesthesia
Patient refusal
Lack of resuscitative equipment
Lack of knowledge of procedure
Coagulopathy
Previous back surgery (relative)
Raised intracranial press
Infection on injection site
32. The Scope of Anesthesia
* Providing general or regional anesthesia
inside and outside the operating room
* Intensive care units
* Respiratory therapy departments
(Anesthetist is respiratory physiologist and
experts at managing ventilatory
inadequacy.)
* Recovery room management
9
33. The Scope of Anesthesia
* Cardiopulmonary resuscitation
* Postoperative pain relief
* Anesthetic research, teaching medical
students, and assuming administrative
and leadership positions on the medical
staffs of many hospitals and ambulatory
care facilities.

34. The Scope of Anesthesia
Blood, Fluid and electrolyte
replacement during operation is
supervised by anesthetist.
Anesthetist arrange the schedule,
interview and instruct patients
before the day of operation, admit
and examine them, anesthetize,
supervise recovery, and discharge
them.
35. The Scope of Anaesthesia
Participate in opportunities for
researches in anesthesia.
Anesthetist, ridges the gap between
basic and clinical sciences,
participate in teaching of basic
science, anesthesia practice &skill.
Anesthetists are pharmachologists
36. Definition of the practice of
anaesthesia
1)Assessing, consulting, and preparing
patients for anaesthesia
2)Rendering patients insensible to pain
during surgical obstetric, therapeutic, and
diagnostic procedures

37. Definition of the practice of
anaesthesiology
3)Monitoring and restoring
homeostasis in perioperative and

anaesthesiology
5)Managing and teaching of cardiac and
pulmonary resuscitation
6)Evaluating respiratory function and applying
respiratory therapy
7)Teaching, supervising, and evaluating the
performance of medical and paramedical
personnel involved in anaesthesia,respiratory
care, and critical care
15
39. Definition of the practice of
anaesthesiology
8)Conducting research at the basic and clinical
science levels to explain and improve the care of
patients in terms of physiologic function and
drug response

42. Why study the History of Anesthesia
An understanding of our past guides our
future
The history of surgery is inextricably linked
to the development of appropriate
anesthetic
techniques and so the history of surgery
follows
the history of anesthesia.
